My MACBIA goal is to remember how to write Russian alphabet in cursive writing.
It is a measurable goal since Russian alphabet has 33 letters. Since I learned 100 vocabularies during the Russian class in the spring semester, I would also like to write those vocabs in cursive without checking how to write each alphabet.
I hope this goal is achievable since I've already learned how to write printed style writing and each alphabet's pronunciation. However, this will be so challenging since Russian alphabets are not similar to English alphabets. Actually, there are quite similar alphabet within the Russian, such as ш щ ц.
Yet, this goal is quite beneficial because in Russia, people only use cursive writing. I'm planning to visit Russia in this winter, so I need to know how to read and how to write those words. To make this goal achievable, I divided into some steps. I will start from long vowels (5 letters), short vowels (5 letters), and consonants (rest of them). It may take 3 days for remembering 5 letters. About in a 7 weeks, I will be able to write those letters in cursive.
I also have a friend in St. Petersburg, and I often text with her. Hopefully, she is going to check how it goes and readable or not.
Wow, I didn't know there were cursives in Russian. It must be pretty difficult considering the fact that the letters already seem so complicated. But I'm sure you can do it since you already seem to have passion in studying Russian. Also you have a friend, yes, a friend, who can check on you, right? That's perfect!
返信削除Tell me about Russia when you get back from your trip :) You can do it!
“friend”
削除Recently, I was invited to a Georgian cooking class with a teacher from Russia, and she taught me this: "Privet! Menya zovut Nika!" ;) I have the same reaction with Nao, lol. I never knew it has cursives. Anyway, I believe you can do it. You have such a clear and organized plan for it, so just stick with that, and you'll go far without doubt.
返信削除Good post, Ryoma. I think you will succeed. Even though this class may not be able to check your writing, you can also tell us about your progress so we can also help keep your accountable.
返信削除Who can read Russian in cursive?
返信削除I am not sure if it's useful or not, but I like it.
I strongly think that it is important to understand the language of the country u travel to in order the get the best out of the trip. Therefore, if u achieve this goal I bet you’ll have an awesome time in Russia. I’m looking forward to hearing about the trip!😁
