Notes

  • The combination of letters тьс is pronounced as [ц]: пятьсот [п'ицот], девятьсот [д'в'ицот].
  • The combination of letters стьс is pronounced as [сс]: шестьсот [шиссот].
  • The soft sign after м in семьсот and восемьсот is spelled historically and does not influence the pronunciation of м in these particular words. The letter м is pronounced hard here.

Listen as many times as you need, read the numbers aloud at least three times each and memorize them.
