Are you familiar with the #Czech sentence "strč prst skrz krk"? These words apparently have no #vowels , or, upon closer inspection, it seems the letter "r" is in place of the vowel. To learn how to pronounce these "r" sounds found in several #Slavic #languages , there's this video, which I recently re-uploaded to #PeerTube.

Koschei the Deathless is a powerful, malevolent sorcerer in East Slavic folklore who achieved immortality by separating his soul and hiding it inside a nested, "matryoshka-style" container: a needle within an egg, inside a duck, inside a hare, inside a chest, buried under a green oak on the mythical island of Buyan. His original recipe (with some obvious substitutions) would later be known as the "turducken". #folklore #cooking #slavic #wizard #deathless #lich #turducken #sorcerer
