I just took out a b...*note about the delete* thing.<br />I just took out a bit that was kind of irrelevant is all. Never mind.<br /><br />Here's what I should have said...<br /><br /><br />Many "old" words, such as "bridge" (most) "beer" (pivo) "wine" (vino) "Street" (ulice), along with a host of others, are very similar among most, if not all of the Slavic bunch of languages. <br />Once you sort out a bunch of those old roots (btw, root=kořen in Czech. koren in Slovenian, корень in Russian etc) it will be easier to try and figure things out.<br />Well, in theory.<br />By the way, the Russian word is pronounced exactly the same as the other two, the lettering is different is all. That thing that looks like a 'p' is an 'r'. Remember CCCP? (That was SSSR...Soyuz Sovietskich Sotzialistechkich Riespublik..) Not easy spelling that phonetically...but it stood for the 'Union of Soviet Socialist Republics'. I just had a flash back to the hockey series of '72.<br /><br />But I digress...<br /><br />The difficulty lies in the memory work, which makes it tougher to retain sh*t as one gets along in years.<br />Speaking only for myself of course.<br />Your mileage may vary.<br />But hey, at least the alphabet *sort of* looks the same?<br />Should be fun!Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.com
