Let us talk about ourself !

Let us learn how to introduce ourselves :

My name is harish  - меня зовут хариш 

Pronounced : "Minya zavoot ..."
Note: 
The "E" infront of the stressed "Я"  is pronounced as "yi"
The "O"infront of the stressed "Y" is pronounced as "A" as in "And"


Nice to meet you!  - очень рад(а)!

Well, there are two ways to say "Nice to meet you " in Russian.
<<очень рад>>> is said by men and
<<очень рада>> is said by women.

Or else you can simply say <<Очень приятно>> or <<Приятно познакомиться>>

In <<Приятно познакомиться>> "A" is stressed; therefore "O" is pronounced as "A" as in "And"
