Видимо, дело в том что они голос не перекрывают, а просто тушат питч дыханием, но голосовые связки оставляют "включенными", а у нас-русских привычка - и дыханием тушить и голос отключать одновременно.
    Да, я в курсе про I. К счастью, это не сложный звук. В общем то, я примерно понял, над чем стоит больше работать и в каком направлении двигаться

    Hi Vladimir. You make a big step just by your ambition to speak English, so I applaud that. Overall in your recording you had good emphasis while reading. Often lack of confidence in speaking a new language blurs diction, and that's what I'd recommend as a point to study. It's better to speak slowly and have proper diction at first, and then graduate to more confident speech. There are definitely distinct differences in combinations of sounds between Russian and English, and to adjust one's usual way of speaking takes time. I haven't even begun to speak Russian myself, but I already know I will have difficulty training my tongue to make certain sounds and combinations...lol. Keep working at it, you'll improve as time goes on.
