Introduction to Russian: Lesson 1
Video 1, Activity 2 (continued)
In the video, did you hear how Ian introduced himself? He said: "Я - Иан." It means "I am Ian".
His name in Russian begins with the letter И , which sounds like the long [ee] sound in eel. This letter looks like the English letter N reflected in a mirror.
И also can be translated into English as the conjunction and. If you want to say "Anna and Ian" in Russian, it will look like this: "Анна и Иан" .
