Russian uses the Cyrillic alphabet, an alphabet similar to that of Greek. Even those who are unfamiliar with the Cyrillic alphabet may be able to recognize the cities on this list. First I will write the names of twenty-five Russian cities and then I will write the equivalents in English.
1. Нью-Йорк
2. Париж
3. Лондон
4. Токио
5. Манила
6. Торонто
7. Чикаго
8. Сеул
9. Пекин
10. Москва
11. Будапешт
12. Рим
13. Берлин
14. Каир
15. Сан-Паулу
16. Джакарта
17. Мюнхен

A few of the Cyrillic letters have different values in the Roman alphabet. The Cyrillic c, h and p correspond to the Roman s, n and r. Of the twenty-five cities, the ones most easily identified by those unfamiliar with Cyrillic are perhaps the cities Moscow, Tokyo and Toronto.
