    It sounds like шырь, just like that. Maybe you really heard someone mispronounce it or you just couldn't make it out.
    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.
