Comment on Is it a bad idea to learn Russian because of the war?

True lol
But figuring out just how much “u” you need to write, or how many are there, is a bit tedious without the language experience.

True, but there’s a high chance you’ll accidentally write something that’s correct than in latin script. When I was learning Russian in high school I spent more time than I should trying to come up with a word that has the most “u” shapes. Sadly I don’t remember what I settled on, but it was quite a bit long.

The classic ones are “шиншилла” and “лишишься”, although the latter could be extended to “лишившийся”. 11 u’s for the latter, if my calcultations are correct.
