Language-knowledge hunter. 3rd episode.
Було[шн]ая(Bakery), Маяковск[ай](Mayakovsky), це[р']ковь(Church), до[щ'щ'](Rain), [д’в']ерь(Door), etc. — all of that are features of old Moscow pronunciation. From this video, you will not only learn about different old Moscow pronunciation features but also will hear dozens of examples of speech from old movies, songs, and theatre performances. By the way, I will also speak the old Moscow dialect in this video.
Also, there is an opinion that «в Маааскве все гавааарят вот так(Everyone in Moscow speaks like this)». Of course from the point of view of a regular Moscow citizen, it is completely wrong. But how this cultural myth was created: is it just a bad impression of those who come to Moscow or was it the proof of how people in Moscow actually have spoken.
At the end of the video, we will talk about how widespread this "Mchat(Well known Moscow Theatre)" pronunciation was before. This Russian "received pronunciation" and is someone speaking in it now. In addition, I will share my personal feelings about it: I patiently learned it and even filmed some videos using it a year ago.
