Drink every time Paleo doesn't actually leave. XD

I tend to go the more formal route with everyone. XD

'Hello' and 'greetings' and the occasional transliterated 'здравствуйте.' (Zdravstvuitye)

This transliteration actually gives a false impression, as it is one of the very few Russian words which have a consonant omitted in pronunciation (namely, the first "в")

I'm aware. ^_^ I just put it there because it exists in the word. XD

I do not doubt your knowledge, it's just we are the only tw o people here who know it

No Paleo!
Go to sleep!

 

[Paleo]

Hypocrite isn't the right word

I just have a substantial lack of self discipline ._.

As proven by this post

In fact, I have deliberately used an inappropriate (would be up to the level of offensive, really, had it not been for the general tone of the thread) word to give you an incentive to go to sleep

It didn't work!
Because of the offensively inappropriateness of the word in question, I simply had to react

It's in mah nature :/
I blame my brain for this

Now everyone else knows it; no one is going to attempt to pronounce it with confusion and lots of struggling. :U

Nothing amuses me more than people attempting to pronounce здравствуйте.

Do you like Macklemore by any chance?!

The best way to teach Russian pronunciation would be through the IPA. Russian sounds really do not mix with Latin script

Fun fact that will blow your mind:Learned this a few days ago-Looker is the Tenth Doctor from Doctor Who. The developers felt that Looker/The Doctor was a good plot device for Diamond and Pearl as you were batting a evil team that wanted to control time and space so Looker made his apearence to try and stop people that caused events on the galtict scale. TADA!! Secrects out!!

He's okay
But that was in reference to another song entirely

That's actually brilliant. I wish my teacher would have done that. :U Let's ignore the fact that I learned the Cyrillic alphabet the summer before I took the class.

Does it help with sounds that are formed in sequences of letters? (I really don't know, as I have never learned Russian pronunciation that way, and in my studies of all of English, French and Swedish sounds were coming before the letter combinations)
