Can this help me learn the Russian alphabet better?

Question

So, I just downloaded the first 50 pages of the new book based on t.A.T.u.
I downloaded the Russian version of it. It is 51 pages single spaced, font size 12, Times New Roman font. Single Sided. I know the Russian alphabet very well.
If I try to translate the cryrilic alphabet into the Latin alphabet, could it help me learn the Russian alphabet better without having to struggle to read a single Russian word?

Answer 1

What this will help you learn is a better approximation of the pronounciation of the Russian words, as the Latin letters and sounds will be more familiar to you. It will also help you learn to properly transliterate the Cyrilic to Latin better.

But if the real question is learning to read Russian, you should simply spend time reading the Cyrillic. It will help you much more in the long run.

Answer 2

Learning a new alphabet is useful and can boost your intellect even if you don't learn that language. For example: Greek is useful In math and science. Chinese- you can pronounce signs and understand some symbols of Asian culture Learning Cyrillic would just increase your intelligence...you don't have to actually learn Russian.

Answer 3

If you know your russian alphabet well, then you stated this question incorrectly. If you know the alphabet, there is now ay to understand it farther. it is what it is. I think that what your asking is how to read better. The way to read better would be to jsut read the words slowly at first. Then eventually it will come quickly.

Answer 4

I thought you said you "know the Russian alphabet very well." Why would you waste your time doing this? If you know it very well, there are probably other ways to "learn [it] better".

Answer 5

No silly the syntax is quite a bit different.
