"Yellow journalism" is also a phrase in English :) It has the same meaning.

In the last 20 years or so, in the US I seldom hear "yellow journalism". I think it's largely been replaced by "fake news" 😂

[@quadroninja2708]

@@MrTrentiusMaximus i don't think "clickbait" is synonymous to "fake news". It's merely a dirty trick media uses

If you want to learn the origin of the idiom "money doesn't smell" it's pretty interesting: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pecunia_non_olet

[@meofamily4]

Regarding the first one, Emperor Vespasian is reported to have told his son, who complained about a tax on urine in ancient Rome, "Pecunia non olet." Money doesn't smell. In Das Kapital, Karl Marx referred to the anecdote as proof of the value of money, no matter how obtained.

[@rosechloe5852]

У чёрта на куличках is kinda equivalent to the middle of nowhere in English, and деньги не пахнут is like " if the cash is there, we don't care."

[@pierrottt5726]

We use "yellow journalism" and "god knows where" in english, too.

[@johanneskiefer6912]

Первый оригинально с Латинского языка: Pecunia non olet. Есть история о царе Веспазиянь, у которую нет было денег, решившего требовать деньги за посещение, уборных. И когда его сын спросил его, как он мог это сделать, он ответил: деньги не пахнут! (Также у нас в немецком есть! :D)

I like your stuff, but I would like to have a additional short video where you repeat those phrases and translations so I could loop it to memorize.

[@wragabrr]

I did that with the counting. I watched your video to get it and then I watched a video of someone counting to 100 maybe 100times.

[@bibianamajorska6520]

Thank you so much for this upload! I have to say some of these idioms are literal translations of those in Slovak, which is my mother tongue. Given both languages are related, I knew they were somewhat similar, but I had no idea to what extent. Anyway, keep up the great work!

Title is a little confusing. Maybe Russian Idioms? :-) Love your work.

[@subscriberswithoutvideos-tv3lg]

I can't understand u, foreigners. Why are u learning russian? It's useless in countries, like USA, Germany, France and whole other Europe. If u really want to learn it, read books. It will be REALLY hard for u, to read Tolstoy, Pushkin or Gogol. That's classic, and if u'll read it, u'll learn basics. And yeah, I am native speaker.

[@toad4u]

@@subscriberswithoutvideos-tv3lg Why not learn? Doesn't matter the reason but the enjoyment and probable practicality from it. Plus books can be outdated and people learn in different ways.

[@subscriberswithoutvideos-tv3lg]

@@toad4u I haven't seen a foreigner who speaks russian free yet. Not a single. I think you've heard, that Russian is the hardest language in the world. I think that's what attracts u learn russian, isnt it?

[@vaguelyvagrant9694]

In English, У черта на куличках has a much more vulgar, colloquial counterpart. When someone lives or works far away, in the middle of nowhere, it's referred to as "East Buttf*ck". "He lives way out in East Butt F*ck." or in some parts of the US, the phrase is "He lives way out in Butt F*ck Egypt." or "He lives way out in Timbuktu." All considered either hard to get to places or places that you would not want to go due to possibly safety concerns (especially regarding your butt?).

[@airsoftghost]

Ударить в грязь лицом in English it would be "epic fail", maybe like эпическая неудача

[@Orion1205]

I was thinking the phrase “ To fall flat on your face.” It’s basically the same exact phrase.

[@olegpetrov2617]

Money doesn't smell is international and old phrase

[@victorkaplansky]

1. "У черта на куличках". There is no "и" between "ч" and "к". You spell and pronounce it incorrectly. 2. "Ударить в грязь лицом". You use it incorrectly. This one should be used exclusively in negated sentence as in "не ударить в грязь лицом" meaning showing the best part of yourself, don't make a mistake (big or small). Also, while your order of words is possible, much more natural would be "не ударить лицом в грязь".

[@nightyonetwothree]

more "natural" to common speak is "не ударить лицом в грязь", yes, but idiom is formed as "не ударить в грязь лицом" and i find it not less natural.

[@missedplaced928]

What’s the difference between ты and тебя?

[@3ddevelopment979]

"Тебя" is using instead "ты" when you talking about an object of action, in (English-you, them, her, him, me) : "I punched you"="я ударил тебя", "you punched me"= "ты ударил меня"

[@CrazyDreamer1001]
