Mеrry Christmas, dear all! С Рождеством!

Before knowing the Russian alphabet, many people think that the letter Я is just inverted R 😅

But actually this letter is very important for the Russians. It is not just the last letter of the Cyrillic alphabet (the alphabet people use in Russia), but it is also a word which means "I". The coolest part is that in Russian we don't use verb to be in the present tense (instead of "I am Olga" and "I am a teacher" we say "I Olga" and "I teacher").

So you should know how to say Я [ya] and it's already possible to make a few sentences:
- Я Томас [ya Maria] - I'm Tomas,
- Я инженер [ya inginiér] - I'm an engineer,
- Я студент/студенткa [ya studiént/studiéntka] - I am a student (male/female),
- Я программист [ya programmist] – I am a programmer,
- Я доктор [ya doctor] – I am a doctor,
- Я папа/мама [ya máma/papa] - I am the father/mother.
