Я чувствую себя отдаленным от всего.

Ja`choostvuj|seeb'a|uddah`l'on­nm|utfsee`voh||Izv'u`nee|| Jurahs`troel|tee`b'ah

b' - palatal;

u - schwa

`choo - stressed syllable

The farther a vocal is from the stressed syllable (both ways), the more it is relaxed (looses its quantity and quality)

The phrase itself doesn't sound quite Russian due to the word "отдаленным". "Отстраненным, далеким, удаленным" would be better.

[schetin]

First off: 'Privet' [pri`vet](like pree + `vet) and 'Kak dela?' [`kahgdee`lah] are good among coevals or strangers... Sound a bit strange in addressing Mother.

[schetin]

OK, the only 2 remarks are:

1) palatal sounds don't sound quite natural;

2) stresses - correct accentuation is crucial both for English and Russian. In Russian, there's strict dependence of a vocal on its position against the stressed syllable (both before and behind).

oh yay oh yay oh yay

@Lester1986 Yep, I agree.

[Lester1986]

@Sco768 we were talking about stresses, weren't we? My point was that Google translate _on_itself_ is a bad teacher. Combining sources of knowledge is always the best solution.

[Sco768]

@Lester1986 but then again a good Russian dictionary would no provide the sample sounds, especially [ы] and [л'],

[Lester1986]

@Sco768 "usually pronounces correctly" is a terrible characteristics and google translate is a very bad helper for learning pronunciation. Instead, getting a good Russian dictionary would surely help.

The fuck is this?

[Sco768]

Stresses are sometimes wrong. Try Google translate, it usually pronounces words correctly. And extend some pauses between the words.
