The last sentence means: “There are three твёрдый знак in a single sentence above.” A твёрдый знак is the letter: “Ъ”. It means: “Hard sign” because it makes the letter before it hard.
If: “Объяснишь” was: “Обяснишь” and “Объект” was: “Обект”, then the letter: “Б” would be pronounced softly because of the soft vowels: “Я” and “Е” that come after it. This is why the Russian word for: “No” — “Нет” is said like: “Niet” even though it has no “I”.
Oh, and the word: “Совет” is frequently written: “Soviet” (I used it as the word for: “Tip” above). In these words, the letter before the: “I” is soft. It’s the job of the твёрдый знак to counteract that.

Need to fix cyrillic в (add loop) and н. Interesting what you make cyrillic and latin C and X different.

Совет: Используй: «what» когда объяснишь объект, а «that» когда объяснишь мысль или деятельность.
Никогда ничего подобного не видел — три твёрдого знака в одном предложении выше.
