At the right is a picture of an oar, which you use to
row, row, row your raft down the
river.
|
 |
And here is a Russian letter that looks like that oar.
You pronounce it with a "trill", and it sounds like this (very
lengthened and exaggerated so you can hear it):
If you can't do the trill, just make it sound like the first
consonant in rest, and everyone will still understand you.

At the right is a picture of a semicircle.
|
 |
Even if we flip it on its side, it's still the same
stupid semicircle.
|
 |
|
At the right is a Russian letter that looks like the semicircle,
has the name "ess", and the consonant sound of the word same.
