    Pronounciation of "Ястреб"

    I'm trying to figure out the English pronunciation of this word... and also trying to confirm if it means "Hawk"... Meaning does it actually mean Hawk or it just means bird of prey etc.


    THANKS,

    p.s. Does anybody have any cool Russian Fonts?

    A transliteration of the the word is Yastreb. It is pronounced something like [i]Y

    My variant with the wrong sylable division is more right than your first one, with the right sylable division! :P

    i know people have replied, but I read it and it is "Yestryeb" or "Yestreb" as TATY says, but that is only how I read it.

    Just for information, TATY's native language is English.

    It's not ЯстрЕб, it is pronounced (by Russians) Йастрип!!!
    На любом уроке фонетики в любой школе тебе объяснят, что там произносится ИИИИИИИИИ.

    Это диалог мне очень нравится! Всю жизнь. мать жаловаться на трудную орфографую английского. Я могу теперь жаловаться на трудный произношение русского!! Ястрeб = Йастрип

    Спасибо ещё раз, Оля!!

    The pronunciation difficulties please me no end (although the undercurrents make me sad)! All my life, my mother has complained about the difficulty of English spelling. Now, I can complain about the difficulty of Russian pronunciation. Ястрeб = Йастрип

    Thanks again, Оля!!
    Correct my Russian, please! Пожалуйста, исправьте мои ошибки!

    And of reading. A real dialog from a forum
    -- ... it must be a rare word, pedagogical. I even don't know how it is pronounced.
    -- first g as in 'go' , second as judge.
