Russian Hypercorrection







palatalization

russian speakers palatalize consonants in loanwords had never been palatized (as [mɐˈdʲern] instead of [mɐˈdɛrn] модерн) under influence of spelling. russian has 5 so-called hard vowels (а, э, ы, у, о), follow hard or unpalatized consonants, each corresponding soft vowel (я, е, и, ю, ё respectively), follow soft or palatized consonants. however, hard vowel э has orthographic limits allowing written @ beginning of word or after vowel (as in cyrillic spelling of aeroflot). in many loanwords, soft vowel e written read if э.
