Hello,

I need a little pronunciation help please. In the word какие-либо, is либо pronounced libo or liba? Also, what syllable is accentuated in the words выпала and палате? Finally, is продлиться pronounced prodlitsia or pradlitsia and how would you pronounce посетим?

Thank you very much,
Jamie

It's difficult to comment on such questions on the forum - you need to hear it.

какие-либо - liba (unless you're in ukraine or in bumblefuck)
выпала - ы
палате - 2nd a
продлиться - your best bet is "a"... but the accent is on the "и", so the natural sound for the "a" is something in between
посетим - accent on "и", "c" is soft. so more of a "posyetim" rather than a "posatim"

Thank you so much kolobed! Very Happy In eight hours, I'm giving a presentation to high ranking Kremlin officials. For the past 5 days, I've been unsuccessfully trying to get a hold of my Russian professors for help and I was starting to panic.

Best regards,
Jamie
