I’ve just had something of a go at Russian numbers & at the end of many of them is this st sound only more of sssstauh. It feels really odd making that ending sound like I’m somehow squishing the tip of my tongue against the back of my top teeth and also managing to press the air out of my mouth like a snakes hiss.

It is interesting all the sounds that I could probably make if only I knew how. I’ve heard that people can learn to howl like wolves, hoot like owls, and… I find that amazing. I don’t know if I’ll ever land myself in Russia but knowing the basics of it shouldn’t kill me. Although I must remember to keep up my Spanish studies considering how long it took me to get where I am with it. I have a one track mind sometimes (Study Russian…Spanish gathers dust…not a good idea!)
