    Expanding a little on the same topic:

    What's the proper pronunciation of three "и"'s in a row i.e.:

    "...благодати и истины."

    Yes, I agree with Marcus. With this aproach you can ask about anything you run into. For example I can easily come up with 4 or even five "и's" in a row

    Облигации и издержки
    О богослужении и Иисусе.

    And there will be no trouble for me to pronounce any of those two...
    I do not claim that my opinion is absolutely true.
    If you've spotted any mistake in my English, please, correct it. I want to be aware of any mistakes to efficiently eliminate them before they become a habit.

    OK...so I'll just have to chase down one of my Russian-speaking friends and get them to pronounce it for me.

    Thanks; I guess I'm rather ignorant in this area yet but I'm learning.

    I don't doubt it!
