https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyrillic_alphabets#Common_letters НЯ -> Nya? (so sayeth google translate)
that cyrillic is probably spelt like cat.
НЯ is pronounced nya which apparently can mean “cute” in Russian. Guess that might be the joke?
Cat is Кошка in Russian / кіт in Ukrainian
“Nya” is Japanese for “meow”.
Nya is an onomatopoeia for the sound a cat makes. Typically associated with pop culture representations of felines, catgirls/boys, and other cat-like beings.
Oooh I see. Thanks!
even better.
Ah thanks
If ‘R’ is pronounced ‘arr’ then is ‘Я’ pronounced "rra’?
“Ya”. And the Cyrillic “H” is an N. So, ня = nya.
Nya!
НЯ!
Я не понимаю.

Ну как? Кошки все-таки «ня» мяукают
Я выглядит как перевёрнутая R. Человек думал, что это HR, а это НЯ - милота, оно же nyan.
но это не трудно, нет?
