Softness and hardness signs

Softness sign "ь" usually changes the pronunciation of the consonant in front of it.
пень (penj) - tree stump   день (denj)   - day    моль (molj) - clothes eating moth
The hardness sign "ъ" usually changes the pronunciation kind of like the wiggly line on top of letters in Spanish.
сел (sel) - sat down   съел  (sjel) - ate
