1 When I asked what I had omitted in my last post I meant I have forgotten to write examples with the letter "д". Nobody seemed to notice ;)
2 - it's a type of roof material.
3 - it's possible to write this letter both ways, but I prefer the second (againg for the reasons of being better understood) notwithstanding I have mostly written it the first, more 'correct' way in the pictures.
4 - a card game, but I don't know how to play - they play it in classical literature.
5 - a thingy to kill flies with
6 - I had an auto in mind when I wrote it.
7 - women wore it in the XIXth century, some sort of a vest with fur. Sorry, couldn't find a picture. In everyday language it means a short and warm overcoat.
8 - old, now poetic for eyes
9 earlier it was obligatory to write a line above "т" and under "ш" - in order to distinguish between them. It is not now, but in words containing иш, ши, иши - I find it the best solution.
10 - one of the variants of translation, the other being a simple transliteration, Торин Оукеншильд. (yes, I love the The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, and adore comparing translations with the original).
11 лэди is an oldish variant of the title, found in books up to mid XX century, леди is today's norm.
12 it's difficult to come up with Russian words, so as you see I have written three originally English ones.
13 An old title for a "tzar's" official (don't ask what he was doing :) ). In the 18 century it was sort of a lawyer.


All letters like they are written in our writing guide in the first grade, in the "пропись"

And finally, this is how I pronounce the alphabet. (Pause after each line, and some letters like эф I do it differently on purpose).
