Review Summary

常见错误

Learners often default to English sounds. Remember that diacritics like the caron (ˇ) change the sound to 'sh'.

Wrong: Pronouncing 'Š' as 's'.
正确: Pronouncing 'Š' as 'sh'.

In words like 'trg', 'r' is the only vowel sound. Treat it like a small 'uh' sound.

Wrong: Treating 'r' as a consonant only.
正确: Recognizing 'r' can be a vowel.

Never mix scripts within a single word; it is grammatically incorrect.

Wrong: Mixing Cyrillic and Latin in one word.
正确: Using only one script per word.
