Cyrillic letters can be used to spice up English. Imagine having just one letter for "ch", "sh" and "th"!

"She relaxed in the chair under a tree's shade"

"Шe relaxed in фe чair under a tree's шade"

But ф is absolutely not the sound that "th" makes.

In fact, in Russian, at least, we don't have a "th" sound.

But this is better than using Д in place of "A".
