Russian rainbows

Каждый охотник желает знать где садит фазан.
[Every hunter wishes to know where sits a pheasant.]

is a mnemonic device for

красный, оранжевый, жëльтый, зелëный, голубой, синий, фиолетовый
[red, orange, yellow, green, dark blue, light blue, violet]

which are the Russian colors of the rainbow.


In other news, I finally finished translating this article, and it only took me three months!


Today's word:
способ - method, means; way

What a charming mnemonic. Just one little typo - it should be сидит. =)
