Why don't we pronounce words exactly as we write them? How does a sound differ from a letter, and a letter from a phoneme? Why do word forms change according to specific laws, and why do parts of speech form a coherent system, not just a set of school rules?

You'll find answers to these and other questions in this book by L. V. Shcherba, a distinguished linguist, academic, and educator, one of the leading researchers of the Russian language. The book covers key topics in phonetics and morphology: from the sound system of the Russian language, stress, and the relationship between sound, phoneme, and letter, to parts of speech, word forms, and basic grammatical categories.

In this book:
- How is the sound system of the Russian language structured?
- What is the difference between a sound, a phoneme, and a letter?
- Why do sounds alternate and change in speech?
- How are parts of speech structured, and how are they distinguished?
- How do the categories of gender, number, case, tense, person, and aspect work?
