cuz I'm russian and this alphabet looks strange ^)

for example letters v,p,t and so on - they shouldn't be pronounced this way

Can you tell me what letters you use, then? And what the pronunciation is for each?

I don't think that it's possible to explain the right pronounciation through the Internet. It would be better to find russian-speaking guy or girl in your neighbourhood. There should be plenty of them in Finland :) At least I know some of them.

And I know some words in Finish, but they're dirty - I've studied in Seoul with one cool guy from your country.

What sort of swear words do you have in Russian? People always say it's a fantastic language to swear in.
