P.S. Okay, I looked in my Russian dictionary for a hint at what the first word might be, and I'm guessing that it's рожь. (A word I recognize, but one that I seldom have reason to use!)
You see that it was impossible to guess the spelling of the word "рожь", if you hadn't known it before.
You misheard the second word. THe stress is on the second syllable.
