skorogovorka

which is russian for "tongue twister" (literally something more like "fast-saying"), but actually sounds like a dance step. warning: i continue not to have cyrillic capabilities, so this is going to be in roman letters and look accordingly ridiculous:

Karl u Klari ukral koralli, a Klara u Karla ukrala klarnyet.

(Karl stole Clara's coral necklace, and Clara stole Karl's clarinet.)

But why haven't you yet cyrillicized your computer? S'easy! (Especially as you're running XP, if I'm not mistaken.) Go. Cyrillicize.

here we go, now. the word is скороговорка, and the sentence goes like this:

Карл у Клары украл кораллы, а Клара у Карла украла кларнет.

this keyboard is going to kill me.
