My favorites are: Floccinauccinahillipilification (English for something religious I think. Pronounced "Flossy-noxxy-na-hilli-pili-fication"), Heovnum (the Olde English for Heaven. Pronounced "Hey-ohv-num"), and Slainte (Gaelic for Cheers. Pronounced "Slahn-cha")
Slainte!

"V Shtshebzheshynye chshaunshtsh bzhme f tzhtshinye".
(ch like in "loch"; sz like in shoe; cz like in chick; e like in pet; y like in lady; ie like in yet; rz like in Joe, but without a leading d sound; ą like in Shaun; ci like in chick; w like v or f, depending).

Hope this helps :D :p

(That's the best I can do, without using phonetics.)
:)
