Introduction:
The Russian alphabet is the Cyrillic alphabet which is very much like the Cyrillic alphabet of Serbia, Bulgaria, and Belarusian. Like the other Russians, until the 17th century, the Slavic Church was spoken. The Russian writing style of the Russian language was first published in the time of the Russian emperor Peter the Great.
Four letters were removed from the alphabet during a 1918 language reform. At that time, 33 letters have been included in the Russian alphabet, including the vowels (а, э, ы, у, о, я, e, ё, ю, и, й), and consonants (б, в, г, д, ж, з, к, л, м, н, п, p, c, т, ф, x, ц, ч, ш, щ)̈ and two not sounding signs of themselves (ь and ъ).

Importance of learning Russian Alphabet
The alphabet probably is not the toughest part of the Russian language, but it is the first-hand part of the language that students consider. And it makes them feel like it’s too hard when they’re faced with something so different. But once students begin to understand Cyrillic letters and resolve this first challenge, like any other language, they start to enjoy the Russian language.
Often students concentrate only on speaking, but in a single moment learning the Cyrillic alphabet becomes important. It is difficult to avoid their alphabet entirely for students who are serious about learning Russian. Grammar books and diagrams are not Transcripted, and no Russian book or newspaper uses Latin letters instead of Cyrillic ones
