Who is this designed for? Do you want native English speakers to guess?

Preferably, but not necessarily

Would you like our answers by private message so others aren't reading them before responding? Mine would be consistent, the same sound for the same letter (but linguists, especially those somewhat familiar with any Slavic languages, are the wrong people to ask for an unbiased opinion). I can post them here or send a message, whichever you want.

It would be very nice to send me a private message.
Thank you!)
