The history of Damascus

Today let’s try to practice some Russian tongue twisters! 
Tongue twisters are a great tool to improve your pronunciation, focus on difficult sounds and increase your speech speed (and more importantly – make it clearer). 
Try to repeat after me (I’m reading each one 2 times – super slow and then closer to normal speed):

от тОпота копЫт пЫль пО полю летИт.

на дворЕ травА, на травЕ дровА. не рубИ дровА на травЕ дворА!

кукУшка кукушОнку купИла капюшОн, надЕл кукушОнок капюшОн, в капюшОне кукушОнок смешОн.

These tongue twisters focus on different Russian sounds. Please try to articulate them as clear as possible, don’t chase the speed. Good luck!
