I learned Russian up to B1 level 2 years ago. But naturally, when I didn't repeat it constantly, I forgot most of the things. Even though I remember basic things like this , it is quite enjoyable to repeat them with your explanation. Thanks for your effort.

[@PandaRuss]

Hey! Quick question how did you reach b1 that fast? Any tips? Thank you!

[@rasitcrak]

@@PandaRuss In fact, unfortunately it was not something I could achieve alone. I took private lessons during my master's degree and its helped me a lot. However, while practicing, I benefited a lot from children's programs such as Masha and the bear and луче всех. My teacher told me that language is easiest learn from children because they speak in a very natural way, and I think he was right. So this might be the advice I can give you

@@rasitcrak I see! Well thank you so much! Will give masha and bear a try)

Я думаю что идеальны мя́гкий знак походиться медуж славам "ч" и "я", "ё" или "и", потому что слово "е" слышалься бы плохо. Спасибо учительница!

[@meriamrahima]

Hi! Thank you for your content its very useful :) I just wanted to ask why is it that we use "это" for all these nouns even though some of these nouns are masculine for example "чей это саксофон" instead of "чей этот саксофон"?

Merci !

[@AmazingRussian]

Thank you!

[@SteveMallen]

So useful to go through the basics, thank you. Quick question: if you're just pointing to something and asking "whose is it?" do you use just "чей это?" or "чей он?" (masculine)?

[@AmazingRussian]

Thank you for watching and finding it useful! If you do not want to mention the specific object, just use «Чей?». «Чей это» is not a complete question. “Чей он?» you can use when you replace a noun and know what “он” refers to: Это компьютер. Чей он?

[@SteveMallen]

@@AmazingRussian Makes sense... thanks!

[@connorsedlacek4635]

Thank you for this lesson. One thing that was not clear from the video-- его is the possessive form of оно as well as он, correct? So его could mean both "his" and "its"... or am I missing something?

[@AmazingRussian]

Possessives are rarely used to show possession referring to inanimate nouns. Город и его достопримечательности. Страна и её города, etc. I cannot think of a single example with the neuter noun. “Its” can refer to masculine, feminine, and neuter nouns; however, at this level of learning, this knowledge is not necessary.

@@AmazingRussian Население составляет 10 000 человек, и его большинство составляют фермеры. Это здание очень старое, его стены рушатся. Я люблю это платье, особенно его цвет. - Are these sentences correct?

[@AmazingRussian]

@@nonman3634, да, правильные примеры, , но не для начального уровня. The first sentence is a bit odd. Usually you see: большинство населения or большинство которого.
