Since Tim's birthday is coming up, we got a parcel from Yaroslavl from our family with some crafts and books for Tim and he got to them right away! :))) There were books on Russian alphabet and numbers (you do know Russians have the same numeric system as Canadians, right?:)) So Tim was very surprised that Russian "C" was pronounced as "S" and "B" was pronounced as "V"...And I'm not even talking about those difficult sounds "ъ", "Щ", "Ж", and he can't roll an "R" yet...:)) Poor guy was really confused! Wow time in school should be interesting!
