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]YQuote:

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.
"Ya", not "ye"!
Just for information, TATY's native language is English.Quote:

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 :lol:
Thanks again, Оля!!
