Notes:
* The Russian Cyrillic alphabet uses letters that are similar to but not the same as the Latin alphabet. Some letters have a similar sound, while others have different sounds altogether.
* The letters Ъ and Ь are considered "hard" and "soft" signs respectively. They do not have a sound on their own but affect the sound of the preceding consonant.
* The letters Е, Ё, Ю, and Я are considered "vowel combinations" and are treated as single letters in Russian.
This alphabet is used to write the Russian language and many other languages spoken in Russia and other parts of the world.
