Couple of questions:
1. how do i pronounce word address', like [addresz] or like [addresses]?
2. do these words sounds absolutely equally: cheetah-cheater, reign-rain, know-no, tee-tea, lust-last?
Whilst it might be different in other area's due to accent's. Cheetah and cheater sounds the same save the endings, cheetah is pronounced like cheet-a whilst cheater suprisingly sounds like cheat-er. Reign and rain sound the same. There is a slight difference between know and no but not many would bat an eyelid if you used either instead. Tee - tea, no difference. Lust and last there is a difference, the problem is i cant think of a substitute in russian that has the same sound as u, maybe лёст compared to last being ласт.
