I've been trying to learn russian. I'm a super-beginner, about equivalent to two class sessions, maybe three. I'm trying to learn the Slavic alphabet, but I'm stuck. Can I get help about this from Russian speakers? Thanks! |

Hello. If you need help with the Russian alphabet, don't hesitate to ask me. Some people learn languages faster than others, which means they have a strong cognitive memory. Native English speakers with strong cognitive memories would be able to review the Russian alphabet for only fifteen minutes and memorize it pretty well.
I'll give you some letters that look and sound the same as they do in English, just to start. А, е, к, м, о, and т are the equivalents to a, e, k, m, o, and t. So they're the same as in English. |

Hello in Russian is привет / priviet. If you were speaking formally in Russian, you'd say здравствуйте / zdravst-vuite instead of привет. |

Anyways, if you can't learn the alphabet, I can teach you some basics.
How are you: Как дела / Kak diela?
Good: Хорошо / Harosho
Bad: Плохо / Ploha |

Is it okay if I ask you what "I like you because of your personality" means? |

You can't really say "I like you" without it being love, if that's alright.
Я люблю тебя, так как ваша личность - желательна.

X is kh. Most of the time, it's pronounced like a gutteral h. |

Sasha is a diminutive name. There are people in Russia called Aleksandr, Aleksei, or Aleks... Sasha is just a commonly used nickname for them.
"Я очень хорошо"
AlvAlv might not know the Cyrillic alphabet. Care to transliterate? |

The Cyrillic alphabet is actually pretty easy. Just because you can transliterate Russian, doesn't mean you can translate Russian. So what do you know about Russian, besides the alphabet? |

Lol sorry I can't pronounce those words in english could you? |
