it is very difficult to explain the Russian sounds in writing. to understand their pronunciation you should to listen their. We have strange sounds for understanding)))I advise you to listen an audio or to communicate with a native speaker. I'm sorry for my english.( I started to learn english not so long. I hope you understand what I meant.

well, i have just started Russian language but i know for sure that K O M A T are almost identical to their english counter part but E is slightly different. it is pronounced more like "ye". there are other letters with similar script but different pronunciation : B (Russian "v") C (Russian "s") P (Russian "r") H (Russian "n") Y (Russian "oo") X (Russian "ch" which is closed to German ch rather english; something in between h and kh like in Munich)

C sounds like "c" in "center" and cinema".

furthermore, in written language, or italic, there are other differences, for example, Russian "n" (small) is English P, Russian "g" (small) is English D, (but again capital D is same like English), Russian"m" actually small T!!!
