How can I remember words that come from other alphabets?

Learning words in another language is difficult because many times, the alphabet is much different than our alphabet. As an example, in Russian, the letter "sha" looks like three fingers, so go, "Shhh, Baby's sleeping." And "o" is like our "o", and "l" looks like an elephant's trunk. Now, when I say the word "scholar", I want you to see the word: "sha", the "k", the "o", the "l" and the "a". It means school and it sounds alike.
