взгляд

Hi all, I've never posted on learn_russian, so I'll just quickly introduce myself. I'm Jason and I'm from Liverpool (England); but now live in London, and I'm a final year student of Linguistics and Music who happens to teach himself a bit of Russian now and again.

Okay, this is a weird request... but basically I'm looking for words in Russian that have 4 (or even more?) consecutive consonants in them, such as взгляд. I learned this word from my girlfriend, and it's fascinated me about Russian, how it can have as many as 4 consonants in a row.

Many thanks for this strange request - cheers!

Actually, пляж has only 3 consonants. The я is a vowel, isn't it?

Quite right. :) That is, it has nothing to do with the words in question - but I just wanted to... er... correct an obvious mistake. :)
