Well I'd trust you there. I'm still learning so my pronounciation is probably off.

This is a transliteration, but done wrong. When you transliterate, you write O as O, no matter how it's pronounced:

Poydyomte tantsevat'

If you're going to be a smart-ass, at least try to be an accurate smart-ass.

"танцевать" is actually pronounced as tantsyvat', some people pronounce it as "tantsavat'"

If you're English, you say smart-arse*, not smart-ass

* or clever git.
