Welcome to /r/Russian, a subreddit for people looking to learn Russian and discussion of the Russian language and culture. Though users are welcome to speak Russian, most discussions are in English.

Discord servers:
Political content (comment or post) with no relevance to the Russian language will be removed, and users who post this content will be banned. /r/russian isn’t the place to post about current events in Russia or other Russian-speaking countries. Discussions about language policy topics, like Russian orthographical reforms and the status of Russian as an official language, are fine.
Personal attacks and other forms of disrespectful conduct aren’t allowed. This includes harassing users elsewhere on Reddit as a result of a disagreement in this subreddit. Disrespectful posts will be removed and may result in a ban.
/r/russian is a language-learning subreddit, not a place to post anything and everything in Russian. Of course, if you're learning Russian, you're likely to have questions about articles, videos, books, movies, and other works in Russian that you encounter. You may also want to ask native speakers to proofread something you've written. These posts are fine! On the other hand, if you just want to share a funny picture of a cat with a caption in Russian, there are other places to do that. (For memes, funny videos, and adorable animals, try /r/pikabu.)
If you have a YouTube channel, blog, app, or other resource related to the Russian language that you’d like to share, you’re welcome to post it here. However, we do have some guidelines for promotional posts:
Don’t request or provide access to unauthorized copies of books, films, music, and other copyrighted works. This includes, but is not limited to, asking for or posting links to free PDFs of commercial textbooks. These posts will be removed, and multiple violations of this rule may result in a ban.
If you're studying Russian in school and need help with your homework or exams, don’t ask others to simply do the work for you. These requests are unethical and will be deleted. However, questions about work you've already done are completely appropriate (and even encouraged).

I see this a lot in comment sections
Hello r/russian community,
I'm on the hunt for an old music video that I remember watching on YouTube, but it seems to have vanished. I believe the artists involved were Russian. Here are some specifics about the video to see if it rings any bells for anyone here:
The video was definitely on YouTube before 2016, but now I can't find it anywhere. If anyone here knows the video I'm talking about or has any leads, please share. Your help would be immensely appreciated!
Thanks a lot!
Hi, its already too late I texted my mother in law already.

Just a little heads up.
I was looking for funny greeting pictures I could send her when I noticed something aint right about the dates.
for example,
"медленнее" and "медленнo"
I was wondering if anyone had any resources to share for learning Russian? As in: the alphabet, communication, reading, writing. The basics basically, or just anything honestly

I'm from Brazil and I'm starting to learn Russian and I would like to watch videos/films/series/cartoons with audio and subtitles in Russian, on Netflix there is little content in Russian, I would especially like to watch cartoons to understand better!
Вообще-то у этого глагола значений много но можно ли сказать так что 'они меня образовавались новой информацией"?
То есть, дали мне знать о том что произошло. Проще говоря , уведомили
Ну ладно. Попробуйте понять и напиши как вы это поняли:
Думаю этого хвотит, что бы сломать вам мозги 😁

Hello. In basketball, when a player is draining threes and being on fire with his shooting, the announcer might say something Like. “Jordan is lighting it up tonight”.
I am writing a song lyric, and I want it to be in Russian. The lyric occurs right Before the guitar solo, where my guitarist plays, and I want to say “Light it up Serhii” (My guitarist is named Serhii).---- Is there a phrase in Russian that conveys this message, as if I am commanding Serhii to play an amazing guitar solo “lighting it up”. Thanks.
Can someone help me understand which cases are used in that sentence and why?
I did learn literally a few words of Russian a few years ago but yeah, forgot most of them too. A guy told me about how “chuy” could be incorporated in other words and form countless profanities. As I recall “chuyenni” would be like fucking awful, terrible while “chuhova” would be like fucking awesome, great. Do I remember these somewhat correctly or is it gibberish?
Could the community help understanding the following conversation using Russian poetry and a movie quote, as a non native Russian speaker, I found myself lost in the subitilities of the language used:
MAN QUOTE :
"Благословляю всё, что было, Я лучшей доли не искал. О, сердце, сколько ты любило! О, разум, сколько ты пылал!
Пускай и счастие и муки Свой горький положили след, Но в страстной буре, в долгой скуке – Я не утратил прежний свет.
И ты, кого терзал я новым, Прости меня. Нам быть – вдвоем. Всё то, чего не скажешь словом, Узнал я в облике твоем.
Глядят внимательные очи, И сердце бьет, волнуясь, в грудь, В холодном мраке снежной ночи Свой верный продолжая путь."
WOMAN QUOTE:
"Под лаской плюшевого пледа Вчерашний вызываю сон. Что это было? -- Чья победа? -- Кто побежден?
Всe передумываю снова, Всем перемучиваюсь вновь. В том, для чего не знаю слова, Была ль любовь?
Кто был охотник? -- Кто -- добыча? Всe дьявольски-наоборот! Что понял, длительно мурлыча, Сибирский кот?
В том поединке своеволий Кто, в чьей руке был только мяч? Чье сердце -- Ваше ли, мое ли Летело вскачь?
И все-таки -- что ж это было? Чего так хочется и жаль? Так и не знаю: победила ль? Побеждена ль?"
I found the references of course but need some help to get the real meaning and what happen between these two? What do you guys think?
Допустим: терриконы (имеют???оставляют???) вредные выбросы в атмосферу
Друзья, есть ли в английском языке перевод или эквивалент цитаты Ницше : "Чем шире твои объятия, тем проще тебя распять" ?
Читая о городе Олонец, наткнулся на русского писателя по имени Алексей Чапыгин. Считаю названия некоторых его произведений за странные, например "чемер" в значении "боль", "лодобыры" в значении "одинокие" и "приютились" в значении "гости". Это какой-то диалект?
Заранее благодарю!
I wanted to share how lineup of mathematical subjects taught at a university gets their short names used by students:
Математический анализ (calculus) - матан Линейная алгебра (linear algebra) - линейка Теория вероятностей (probability theory) - тервер Математическая статистика (mathematical statistics) - матстат
Later on the new subject areas get more of a линейка name:
Машинное обучение (machine learning) - машинка Нейронная сеть (neural network) - нейронка (not a subject though)
My father did not like how we called матан, thought it was too harsh of a name and not respectable to the subject, they called it матанализ.
Машинка and ленейка do have actual meanings as a small car and a ruler/lineup reapectively, making the subject names somewhat funnier.
The king of technical subjects used to be сопромат - resistance of materials: "Сдал сопромат - можешь жениться".
I need some sentences that will impress people who speak russian
Привет. Никто не знает, где можно получить полный перевод всей рок-оперы The Wall (Pink Floyd)? Я не знаю английский и хочу проникнуться этим прекрасным альбомам. Я прослушал его полностью 2 раза, но почти ничего не понял из-за языкового барьера. Помогите мне пожалуйста
Hello all! I’m a university student studying Mechanical Engineering, and up until this point, I’ve also had a Russian Language minor. I’ve taken 10 hours of russian language courses and I’m somewhere between an A2 and B1 level. Due to financial reasons, I’m having to drop my minor and stop taking Russian classes with my university, but have really loved learning the russian language and would LOVE to continue with it.
What’re your favorite ways to learn Russian outside of the classroom? What have you found are the most effective ways? Are there any good bands, podcasts, or TV series I should try watching in Russian?
As a note, I’m aware engineering and Russian are a somewhat suspicious combination, however I am only learning Russian so I can speak to my paternal step-grandmother, who is from St. Petersburg and speaks very little English.
What do you like to do for fun? Чем ты любишь заниматься для развлечения?
Какие варианты адаптации этой фразы на русский вы знаете? Или, может, благозвучные аналоги..
