Произно´шение Pronunciation
Russian letters do not always sound the same. The pronunciation depends on their position in the word and on the stress of the letter.
Reduced О (when not stressed) sounds like А, as in the A in about.
Reduced Е (when not stressed) sounds like И, as in the E in piglet. However, this reduction is not so strong as in the case of O.
If you pronounce these letters without reducing them you will be understandable, but sound strange.
Voiced consonants at the end of the word become unvoiced. Таз sounds like tas, взвод sounds like vzvot.
The same thing happens if a voiced consonant is followed by an unvoiced one. For example, Под´скок sounds like patskók.
EditДиа´логи Dialogs
Comment: If you talk to one person and would like to make it respectful, use "Вы" and not "Tы".
You need to use "вы" with small first letter character only if you need to talk to more than one person.
