The ability Of Americans to write transriptions in such a way that no one else can
understand them is overwhelming.

If it is true, then they shoul be pronounced wi the middle of the tongue raised to the
hard palate. You pronounce eeeee as in English "me" and keeping the tongue in this
position pronounce L and R touching the alveolars with the blade (front part, right after
the tip) of the tongue. Soft L is similar enough to the middle L founded in many
languages, like French, German and so on.
When pronouncing the soft L the tip of the tongue doesn't reach the teeth, wile
pronouncing the soft R it can touch the upper teeth.

I meant рю/лю/ря/ля etc etc.
I can't seem to pronounce them as one syllable. I pronounce them as as if they were, for example рыю.

It might be easier to learn to pronounce just рь and ль first, like, a soft R/L at the end of words? Just an idea, I have no clue tbh.

A strange way to pronounce.
Pronounce лллллль first as I described and than go to a, for example. Can you pronounce
them at the end of a syllable? And before и, е?
