The" й "is most of the times the center point of stress in russian

and the щ is a double sch - ch very hard combined consonant

The stress is on the first syllable.

The щ is actually not very difficult to pronounce in modern Russian, since it is usually reduced to a long sh-sound, almost like "sh" in the English word sheep (but a little more "sharp", maybe halfway between this English "sh"-sound and the German ich-laut, as the "ch"-sounds in "ich liebe dich").

The "e"-sound is near the "e" in English "get", but longer (no "ee" like in "feet", no diphtong like in "bay") and a little more closed (as in German "Meer" or French "é"-sounds, e.g. in "général"). Not too long, though.

The "d"-sound is quite different from the English "d". Put the tip of the tongue more forward so it touches the front teeth, then make a "hollow" sound (comes quite naturally when followed by an "oo"-sound).

The "L" is a soft "L", i.e. half-way between "Leh" and "Lyeh". Make sure you don't put a vowel sound between the "L" and the "e", just change the quality of the "L" as if there was a "y"-sound (like in English "yellow") coming after it, but don't actually pronounce that "y"- sound.

The three last vowels are all very short (but clearly audible).

Together, this gives us something like:

SLE-doo-yoosh-shee

I would guess that 'sl'yed-OO-yoosh-chi' is about right, I am assuming that the stress is on the second syllable, which sounds about right.

Look it up in a proper Russian dictionary and it will tell you where the stress is. Even very long Russian words have only ONE stressed syllable.

I don't have one to hand at the moment and I'm rather out of practice and I don't know the word off the top of my head, looks like an adjective to me.


However I see that a really catty bunch have now arrived to answer this question!

MI-IAAAU!

It's pronounced SLED-oo yushchii.
The accent is on the first syllable here.
