I have not really studied any foreign language except for Italian ( i only got into the basics and questioned the usefulness of the language due to... well almost nothing being written in it.) But, i would like to learn 3 languages in my lifetime. Russian, German, and Chinese. Preferably Chinese as a second language because it is supposed to be very difficult. So, toady i was looking at the Russian alphabet. It was cool because as far as i saw it had no rolls of rs. I knew that it had trills of ts but i didn't think that would be a problem. when i went to pronounce the word мечтать (to dream) i ran into problems. so it was like Meych- and i was saying tat at the end. Well, i have no idea how to trill that. The only combo i can semi-trill is tr. So how the hell do i trill? Same thing goes for rolling my r. it always ends up sounding like i have something stuck in my throat and i am gargling.

Is there something i am missing? my ts cut off after like the second vibration and my Rs make me sound like i am choking to death. When i was a young kid, i had to take speech lessons because i couldn't pronounce certain letters like R and L. Could this have affected my ability to do awesome sounds?
