Many beginner learners are challenging themselves to pronounce consonants exactly as they’re written. Which is, in many cases, not what you’re supposed to do.

Voiced & Voiceless consonants exist in many languages, including English. Though there are certain differences between the way you use them in English and in Russian.
Don’t worry! Voicing and Devoicing in Russian is actually a much simpler and more natural process than it might sound in theory!

First of all, it’ll certainly make it easier for you to pronounce some Russian words,
and Secondly, they will sound more accurate as well.
