      If I wrote “playing a sour note” in Ukrainian, no one would understand it.

      Including me.

        Only the characters below are Cyrillic, the rest aren’t pronounceable

        Р_ду_и_ д _о_я иоте

        I don’t speak RU/UKR but my best approximation of the sounds are

        R_du_i_ d _o_ya iote

        Writing this out has caused me 5 psychic damage.
