Texts for reading in Russian

The main purpose of these texts is to demonstrate how Russian reading rules apply in reality. You can listen to the texts, repeat after the speaker using the transciption of phrases, read comments on some difficult points of pronunciation. We provide several options so that you can display or hide stress marks, transcription and translation and choose the view mode you are comfortable with. You can also use special tools to highlight different groups of letters: letters denoting stressed vowels, reduced vowels, soft and unvoiced consonants.
