I know of the special spelling rule that requires «и» instead of «ы» after letters like г and к. When that happens, is the «и» still pronounced as «ы»? Or does it actually get read as «и»? Basically is it just a spelling thing, or does the pronunciation actually change as well?
Спасибо, это очень ясно.
А я вот нифига не понял
Ки, ги, хи are pronounced palatalised, with an и, exactly as written.
Щи, чи are also pronounced as the spelling suggests
Ши, жи, ци are actually pronounced with an ы.
Yes! Its 100% right
