Dec 28, 2014 at 13:57	comment	added	Anixx		from what? мясо and мячик use ['а] мать uses [a].
Dec 28, 2014 at 13:55	comment	added	Ben Kovitz		@Anixx Excellent! That's how it sounded when my friend pronounced these. Can you hear the difference from мясо and мячик?
Dec 28, 2014 at 13:52	comment	added	Anixx		In мастер and мать there is clear а.
