Some more slang!
"Mi mi mi" (Ми-ми-ми) is used to describe something incredibly cute.
Example:
Этот котенок просто ми-ми-ми! - This kitten is just so mi mi mi!
Fun facts:
A Russian late night talk show 'Evening Urgant' has a rubric called 'mi mi mi', where the host of the show 'interviews' cute animals.
'Mi Mi Mi' is a song by the Russian band Serebro. You must have heard it. The thing is, sometimes online lyrics sites write 'mi' as 'me', which is obviously incorrect. But now you know :)
Actually, we don't say 'бутылированная вода' that often because I guess it takes a lot of time to say it. We prefer saying something like 'вода в бутылке' (voda v butilke) which means 'water in a bottle'. Although it doesn't mean that 'бутылированная вода' is not used at all.

“Back in my art school, I had a nasty and strict professor who would comment on every bad work of mine with “What is that? Even dolphins would do a better job!” Even though he would often be extremely annoying and piss me off, he still was a great teacher, so right after I graduated I gave him two tickets to a dolphinarium and saw his smile for the first time.” Source: vk.com/pn6
I said I was gonna get back to translating when I'm done with my exams... Yet here we are!
If you've seen 'Who's Line Is It Anyway?' before then I probably don't have to explain the rules of 'Scenes From A Hat'.
Hope you enjoy! And thank you for being here ❤️
Find yourself a partner who talks about you the same way the last guy talks about his girlfriend (´。• ᵕ •。`) ♡
is polyglot culture understanding a few words overheard in a conversation in a language you’ve never studied before between strangers in a public place because they speak a language that is from the same language family as a language you study and feeling a m a z i n g about it ?
this post isn't about translation or Improvisation. it's just a couple of pictures I took in Moscow so far.
I'll be back home this Sunday. my next translation is half done already. thank you for your patience!

Hey, just a random anon who found this blog looking for Russian content (somewhat new learner here). I came to learn the flow of the language and stayed for my new favorite Russian comedy—it’s absolutely hilarious, and I hoard your clips like precious gems, watching them again and again. I’m glad to see you’re back—I’ve realized just how much something you do to bring positivity for yourself can bring positivity to a total stranger. Thank you for making me smile and doing what you do.
You are literally the nicest! You have no idea how much you made my day. I'm so glad I'm back too, I almost forgot what wonderful people you all are. Thank you for your kind words, I hope you continue learning and familiarizing yourself with Russian! <3
actually, we don't call it russian, we simply call it cheeki-breeki
