Why learn Russian?

The Russian writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn once said: "Know languages, know countries, know people. Let your memory be your travel bag". Language learning is your ticket to new discoveries and adventures. If you learn Russian, it will definitely change your life. Russian is ranked 8th in the world for the number of native speakers and 5th for the number of total Russian speakers. Learn Russian and read in original the works of the famous poets and writers, such as Pushkin, Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, Chekhov, Gogol, Brodsky, Yesenin, Turgenev and so many others. Visit the famous Russian theatres and museums. Appreciate the beauty of the Russian culture through its language. Speak in Moscow about the Bolshoi Theatre, carry out a conversation in Saint-Petersburg about the Hermitage, bring a bathing suit to Sochi and put a lot of sour cream on your "пельмени" /pelimeni/. Speak and improve your skills as you discover the biggest country in the world. The Russians stand out by being brilliant engineers, artists, musicians, choreographers, film-makers, mathematicians and so on. They have a unique culture, mentality and vision of life. Also, learning Russian is essential if you are thinking of becoming an astronaut. It is the official language of space. The Russian language is charged emotionally. You can describe your thoughts, opinions and plans in so many interesting ways you can't even imagine. There are almost no dialects of the Russian language, except for the basic ones: Southern, Northern and Central. So, when different people from different parts of Russia speak, you cannot even hear the difference between their accents. Moreover, Russian is widely spoken in other 15 ex-soviet countries such as Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Moldova, etc. Also, once you learn Russian, it will be easier for you to discover other Slavic languages as well: Ukrainian, Belarusian, Bulgarian, Serbian, Slovenian, Polish, Czech, Slovak, etc.

Interesting facts about the Russian language

Russian colloquialisms

"Да нет" /Da net/ (Yes no) means "Not really".
Use it to express a soft rejection.

"Да ладно!" /Da ládna/ (Yes ok) means "No way!".
Show you are surprised or express distrust.

"Блин!" /Blin/ (Pancake!) means "Oops!".
Say it when you're annoyed, disappointed or surprised.

Polite addressing in Russian

In the Russian language, your first and last name are not considered your full name. And most of the time people won't address you as Mister or Missis, but they will use your father's name - "отчество" /otchestvo/ next to your first name. For instance - Анастасия Павловна Иванова /Anastasia Pavlovna Ivanova/.

Word stress can change the meaning of the word

"Я плачу́" /ya plachoo/
means "I pay"
"Я плáчу" /ya plachu/
means "I'm crying"

The most creative word

недоперепить
/nedoperepiti/
to underoverdrink
To have too much to drink, but to be unsatisfied and want to drink more.

Russian words and where they come from

To be skinny = to be bad

"худой" /hudoy/ skinny or thin
originally meant
"плохой" /plohoy/ bad
Russian people believed that being skinny was bad for health. In this way they started using a single word for both meanings.

The Russian words almost never start with the letter "A"

Notable exceptions:
азбука (alphabet)
авось (perhaps)
Most Russian words that start with an "A" were borrowed from another language.

You can't win alone in the Future Tense

You can't use the verb "to win" in the Future Tense from the first person, singular, in Russian.
"I will win"
"Я победю" /ya pobediu/ or "Я побежду" /ya pobejdu/ are both incorrect.
"We will win"
"Мы победим" /my pobedim/ is correct.

To be or not to be

The word "бытие" /bytiye/
means the higher state of being.
The root of the word is "to be" or "to exist", but the meaning goes far beyond that, into the state of mind or reality.
