Let me break this down:

Я: “Ya” sound

н: “N” sound

д: “D” sound

е: “Eh” sound

к: “K” sound

с: “S” sound, or “C” sound as in “citrus”

Other fun facts:

1. There aren’t usually separate letters for capitals and lower case, only being written either full or half size.
2. Cyrillic isn’t hugely or vastly different from Greek. The л (L) is often written like lambda (Λ), and п (P) is very much like pi (Π). Other similar letters include Д (Delta), Р (Rho), Ф (Phi) and Г (Gamma), in no particular order.
3. Водка (Vodka, almost trivial) literally means “heavy water”. Water is «Вода». Possibly the most important word in all of the Motherland.
4. Like virtually all major Eastern languages (and most languages in general), Cyrillic is pretty phonetically consistent. Letters basically never make multiple sounds, unless accents and such are used.
5. ВORДТ (The show), which doesn’t even fit in English OR Russian, is transliterated to “VORDT”, which I find kinda funny.

I don’t actually know Russian, or any Cyrillic language. You’re welcome. Bonus dog for engagement.
