Thread: Он положил ногу на ногу

Он положил ногу на ногу.

1st ногу is "nogoo", 2nd ногу is pronounced "navoo".
So it sounds like "nogoo na navoo".
He puts leg on leg. In other words, man sitting crossing his legs.
From Rosetta Stone CD2 11-4.6

Is there a pronounciation rule that changes how the 2nd instance
of a word with г like that, is pronounced? Or some kind of slang/lazyness?
This seems different to me than something like одного from
"Эти цветы одного цвета".

As far as I know, it's pronounced "nogu na nogu".

It's GOTTA BE a mistake! Never heard of of navoo

Well, as a native Russian speaker, I can tell you it DOESN'T sound as "nogoo na navoo". What is sounds like is "nogoo nanogoo"

It's GOTTA BE a mistake! Never heard of of navoo

Yea, well i noticed something else on CD1 4-5.9
"Мужчина выходит из грузовика"
"Мужчина входит в грузовик"
yet in the audio, it says автобуcа, автобус

truck & bus, грузовик и автобус, dont sound anything alike.
Way to go rosetta stone.

LOL
Besides, I haven't heard many examples when they say that someone "входит в грузовик". Aвтобуc - yes. Since "входит" implies an upright position.

I just listened to it several times and the person does pronounce these words the right way. You absiously misheard.

I listened to this one too and the person does say the sentences you wrote. You misheard once again.

Мужчина входит в грузовик sounds a bit strange for me. Maybe, "Мужчина садится в грузовик" or "залезает в грузовик" will be more appropriate?

Same thing I've noticed for "взять нА дом". How does one know which is which?

Also "остаться н́а ночь". I don't think there's any specific rule for that. You simply have to memorize it.
