@@striverfor7628 I am from Saint Petersburg, but there is very little difference in pronunciation between the regions, it's pretty much the same throughout the whole country. You really wouldn't tell by pronunciation if a person comes from Petersburg, Moscow or Vladivostok.
Trying to learn a Russian accent for a D&D character, don't come for me FBI. This video is wonderful. The best tutorial I've watched so far! Thank you!
I'm an Indonesian actor and things are getting really serious. Just got myself a role of a Russian agent that speaks English. Got a little bit of time to learn so your video definitely helps. Hope I won't mess things up when the time comes... 😂
for this you need to be in a cool place and this applies not only to Russian pronunciation but also to Swedish, Norwegian, Irish, Finnish and Scottish, this appears because the vocal cords work in cool air and this means they lose less water (by the way, in some areas of central Africa you can also hear the same guttural voice in the foothills of Kilimanjaro where there is high humidity and moderate temperatures around 20°С
This video is GREAT! I’m learning Russian and I want amazing pronunciation. Knowing how Russians say English really helps me as an American know how to speak Russian!
This is so good. Thank you! I hope it's okay but I'm using these tips for a D&D character but I also learned so much about Russian and English in this video.
Thank you very much! I have to attend Electronic Techinal training with Russian-native trainers and I want to be able to understand as much as I can :) This video will definitely help me!
i have a history project and my group members and i wanted to speak in a russian accent to make out presentation more lighthearted and to show we put a ot of effort in. Thanks for this video! really helped a lot

Thank you! You have a great delivery. My brother is excellent at impersonating different accents from around the world. I wanted to be good at a Russian accent because I love the way it sounds. I watch “Eli From Russia “ here on UA-cam. She’s amazing! She’s traveled all over Russia to show the diversity of it’s people and the beauty of the country. No politics at all. I love her channel and have learned so much about beautiful Russia through Eli. Her accent is as beautiful as she is. ✨👍🏽🌹
Thanks for the informative video and your nice and casual way of speaking to us viewers. I'm an American with an audiobook reading coming up, where I'll voice a character with a Russian accent. Your video has been very helpful for me, thank you so much!!!
i like the way russian ppl speak english,it's a nice accent,i once saw a movie,can't remember the name of it,but the person had a role of a mechanic on a ship and there were issues with the engine,and as soon he started talking about how they do things in mother russia,when it's not going the easy way ,then try the hard way,he started beating up the engine and suddenly the engine started working again,it was such a nice and funny scene.
Big thing for me is eliminate words “a” and “the”. “I nyeed to use toy-lett. Do you hyeave keyz to une-look dool? Othelvize, I call Bollis to bleak dool. Buleef mye, He hyas tempel.”

As Dutchman, The rolling letter R here in the Netherlands, we using it very well. Especially in the town Rotterdam.🙂 yes, I reconize a lot of those problems.
@@RussianwithTamara Hoi Tamara, ik ben bezig met de Russische taal te leren en ook wat Ukraïns. Leuke talen en de verschillen in het alfabet en woorden.
@@LeendertCordemans Haal je Russisch en Oekraïens niet door elkaar? Ik begrijp ongeveer 60% als ik in het Oekraïns lees maar de uitspraak vind ik vrij moeilijk.
Thanks! I tried to keep it short and covered only most typical moments in this video. While consonants are quite obvious, vowels are somewhat tricky to explain. We don't have diphthongs in Russian, so "ou" like in "mountain" would sound like two separate sounds, when we pronounce "u" we protrude our lips.
@@RussianwithTamara Thanks for the quick reply! By two separate sounds, what do you mean? Does the ou get split into two separate vowel sounds like oh and oo?

You missed the pronouncing of the English short "e" as the Russian "е" like in the word "help". "hyelp me!" And also pronouncing the English short "a" and broad "a" as the Russian "я" like in the word "has". "hyas"
Thanks for your comment! Well actually I didn't miss the first one, it's tip number 7, it's called palatalization. The second one as well. In Russian we only have one sound э, which is something between English [e] and [æ], so we do often palatalize consonants before these vowels. So "has" might sound like "hyes" (but not like hyas, that's wouldn't be typical Russian)
@@RussianwithTamara You did miss pronouncing English "e" as Russian "э" (e.g. help --> хэлп, has --> хэс), though, as it is a great alternative for palatalising every consonant, which is very difficult for native English speakers (especially for those whose accents don't feature palatalisation at all, such British English). Also, perhaps more importantly, you didn't mention the hushing sounds "sh", "j", /ʒ/, and "ch", the first 3 of which are pronounced "harder", i.e. with the tongue retracted, while "ch" is palatalised. P.s. The standard way of pronouncing "champion" in a Russian accent would actually be with reduced "ion" (so something closer to chyempien) and not like at 8:54.
Конечно, это утрированный вариант типичного русского акцента. Но я не считаю русский ацент лажей. Скорее, признак, по которому легко опознать наших соотечественников.
I already had a pretty decent "Russian" accent. But this did help me get it a little better. I looked it up because I'm doing a skit later for a faction recruitment video in a game that takes place in a semi-fictional Soviet bloc nation during a zombie apocalypse. (DayZ is the game). I even cooked some Bryndzove halshusky tonight to feel more "Russian" though I can't get Bryndzové cheese here so I had to substitute with feta and yogurt.
