Unit quiz: Sound, greetings and social openings

Check understanding, separately from reading

5 questions · 80% to pass · no timer. This quiz checks the lessons in this unit. These authored questions assess recognition and application of the taught distinctions, not professional qualification. You may review the lessons and retry. Repeat attempts reuse the question bank; a remembered answer is not proof of transfer to a new situation.

Saving a lesson records reading only. Previous lesson completions have not been converted into passing scores. You can continue reading without a pass; the assessment remains unpassed.

Question 1

Open your mouth comfortably and sustain a short ah without turning it into the English letter-name ay. This first mapping helps separate a letter’s sound from an English name.

А (AH) — the Cyrillic letter representing an ah-like vowel

Which sound is the useful first approximation?

Question 2

The displayed character looks like an English B but represents a v sound. Touch upper teeth lightly to lower lip and let air vibrate, rather than closing both lips for b.

В (VEH (letter name); V (sound)) — the Cyrillic letter for the v sound

What sound does this character represent?

Question 3

In a fictional meeting between friends, the displayed greeting opens the exchange naturally. With an unfamiliar official, choose a more formal greeting from the extended lessons.

Привет (pree-VYET) — hello (informal)

Where is this greeting most naturally suited?

Question 4

At a first meeting, say the displayed formula and pause briefly before your name. The phrase introduces identity rather than asking the other person a question.

Меня зовут (mee-NYA za-VOOT) — my name is / they call me

What do you add after this phrase?

Question 5

A clerk hands over a receipt; you use the displayed phrase. You are acknowledging help, not necessarily agreeing with every statement the clerk made.

Спасибо (spa-SEE-ba) — thank you

What does this phrase do in the example?
