In addition to the previous answers., both s (c) in the beginning of Ñиний and n in the middle should be palatalized meaning you lift your tongue to the palate and make the sound softer. Some explain this by saying you pronounce a y sound after the consonant but that is actually not quite right. If you have any slavic language speaker or Hungarian or Portuguese around they can give demonstrations of how palatalization is done -and Russian has it a lot!!

Ask someone to talk to you on Skype, or yahoo messenger with voice, the sound is perfect there, and it is free...

Ñиний ---> siniih (The last letter, й is a semivowel, similar to y in English yellow.)
ÐºÐ¾Ñ ---> cot
