б, г, д, л and п
Read five new shapes in a house, park and banana.
About this unit
Five new shapes for familiar sounds: b, g, d, l and p.
- Бб
b, as in “bed”бана́н · banana - Гг
g, as in “go”гора́ · mountain - Дд
d, as in “dog”дом · house - Лл
l, as in “full”ла́мпа · lamp - Пп
p, as in “spin”парк · park
The mark in гора́ shows the strong syllable. The weak о before it sounds like a, but the spelling keeps о.
Reading tips
In гора́ the first о is unstressed and sounds a-like; the spelling remains о. Keep the accent as a listening guide. Russian л is hard here; later vowel letters and ь can soften it.
