Do You Know Weekdays and Months? | Russian Language

[@BlockchainTravel]

So glad there aren’t any crazy rules for days of the week. I was expecting Monday to be a completely different word if you are talking to a woman about a Monday on the 3rd week of November or something.

[@_rebecca_jean]

This really made me laugh

[@davidcool5189]

Those rules only apply on leap years.

[@Hellokittyenby]

lol

[@kyleclarke4845]

Wow this made me laugh a lot

[@VerticalBlank]

Fair

[@s.r.9363]

When I'm watching your videos, it sounds like Russian is a piece of cake to learn. Your videos makes me become fond of this language. Thanks alot.

[@James-ef6op]

One of the best Russian tutors. I always watch and study before my Russian online class. 15 minutes no problem, i can always pause, rewind, slow down the video when I need to memorize and practice certain parts. Thanks and continue what you do your content is helping many people like me.

[@lisamaddox8564]

Finding your videos was like opening presents on Christmas! You explain things really well, so I think longer videos would be best. Спасибо!

[@najarjen_6357]

I think the same ^_^

[@TheDailyMemesShow]

OMG! I've watched this video for the first time on Christmas... Merry Christmas!🌲

[@Николай-ь2ш5х]

HONESTLY THEY ARE LIKE FACTS

[@uniquelyleira]

I like it when he starts to write things down. It's interesting to see how Russians write their words.

[@bennuask2611]

They actually write differently than shown here. He is using the alphabet found in books. This is the alphabet for reading books and magazines, for printed material, that is. They do have another set of symbols for actually writing by hand.

[@himesilva]

And here I've been stressing about not having perfect cursive yet!

[@jayparra8574]

I love "INFORMATIVE " videos regardless of length.

[@RussianwithTatiana]

Me too)

[@Riurelia]

The word Суббота makes me think of "Sábado" in Spanish, which also means Saturday.

[@СергейПудовкин-о4з]

Ah, verdad! "subbota" ~ sabato ~ sábado. Sabes que en ruso, el vino se dice: вино = vino! O también: велосипед = bicicleta! Se parece a la palabra "Velocípedo". Pero no muchos la usan en al español de hoy.

[@anneallison6402]

@The secular humanist knowing spanish, english and french (and basic german) really helps with russian

[@ОлегЦарев-р8г]

This word is from Hebrew anyway. Shabbat

[@AltarParssoy]

@@ОлегЦарев-р8г yeah noticed that many years ago. then it took me a day to look for it's origin altogether and it's all coming from babylonians.

[@ОлегЦарев-р8г]

​@trains and trams I love French, but Russian has too many stupid French words from the 19th century. Many French words (Arab and other foreign words) starts from A, for example: "Абажур" or "ателье". Some oldschool stuff :)

[@MrGlorfi]

Talking about preposition "в" "во" - there's no difference in the meaning, so they're actually two variants of one preposition which basically means "in" "inside of something" also it has the meaning of direction, for instance: "Я иду в магазин" - "I'm going to the shop". So it takes the meaning of "to" in many cases when we're talking about the point of destination, especially when it means that we're going inside of a building. It's very easy to define when we use "в" and when we use "во". We use "во" when the word starts with a consanant "в" and after it there are other consanants, for example: "Ты пришел во время" - "You came just in time" And we use "в" when the word starts with "во" and in all other cases. For example: "Мяч упал в воду" - "The ball fell into the water" "Мой друг работает в офисе" - "My friend works in the office"

[@thomaschevrierlaliberte5884]

Your voice has such a crisp accent. It makes learning so much easier 👍

[@keerankingdomplantae7491]

I'm from Paraguay so I'm so far away from Russia and Europe in general and there's no Russian classes anywhere in here. I'm so really thankful with you for doing all of this! I really like the language and hope someday I can be in Russia :)

[@CentsTwo]

Que genial

[@_ddoraemon_]

En Paraguay hay en la ANR creo

[@mauriciolesme6770]

hdm jajajajajja yo también hago lo mismo, yo todavía no puedo entender como es que no hay clases de ruso acá en asunción. btw en la anr tampoco hay

[@_ddoraemon_]

@@mauriciolesme6770 habia antes de que empiece la cuarentena jajaja

[@ФамТхайШон]

A little bit ‘bout russian grammar, д, в, ж, з, г are strong form letters, which as you pronounce them, you throat will vibrate and т, ф, ш, с, к are weak forms. It means that as you pronouce these weak forms your throat won’t vibrate. So when you see д, в, ж, з, г at the last of words, they will turn into т, ф, ш, с, к in order but don’t do it in contrary. It’s a rule but easy to remember. there is an example for you in this video when you pronounce Четверг ( thursday ), the г will turns to к as it is at the last of Четверг

[@samathzakiyyah8407]

The best KZbin tutorial for Russian!! You r doing a Great job by passing on your beautiful language to so many who want to learn it..and it so interactive and makes it easy to absorb new rules and sounds

[@arianisena738]

Я родилась в октябре :) (just practicing)

[@luciaac9460]

15 minute videos are very helpful to keep track of the topics you brilliantly explain.

[@jonathanacosta5377]

I've been learning Russian for almost 3 years now at my own pace where im comfortable with the basics and your videos are helpful so thank you keep up the good work and to me 15 minute videos are fine theyre not too long in my opinion theyre good 👍

[@patriciadirickx7248]

15 min please The only small issue with months is the change in stress. Good lesson, thanks. By the way....I followed your BeFluent Camp, found a Tandem Partner...we communicate twice every day, and I finally get to SPEAK. You can study for years...without actual conversation, you don't get anywhere . It's such fun to get into practice what we drilled.... everything starts to make sences now. Guys....BeFluent Camp! Go for it !

[@excentrisitet7922]

I suppose that problem with Sunday is the repetition. Во вторник but "Во "Воскресенье" would have the repetition of "Во во" wich would sounds weird. :)

[@aleksandrlitvinov365]

В понедельник, Во вторник, В среду, В четверг, В пятницу, В субботу, В Воскресенье.

[@melissagerber7231]

Resurrection is the word for Jesus returning from the dead.

[@MrHealfi]

Yes, bobo means "small injury" (often for children) in French

[@RussianwithTatiana]

Воскресенье «подкачало»)

[@mihanich]

There is "v" followed by other consonant in "vtornik", that's why it has to be "vo vtornik".

[@thefineartofwalkingpoint]

Thank you it is so beautiful to have nice people teaching you I swear that twice in a row I have seen people that should not be teaching anyone anything teaching Russian in American Colleges. May God Bless You

When you already loved this channel and then he says, "my favorite band, Alter Bridge." ❤❤❤

[@moonefull]

Dobredin, I started following your videos a few days ago and I really enjoy watching them. I really like and appreciate the fact the videos are short and sweet. Since I actually feel that I'm learning! So 5 to 17 minutes is more than enough. Keep the good work! Also I noticed there is a similarity between the days and some numbers 4- chittere and Thursday, 5- pyat and Friday and Saturday... So thanks for sharing and explaining Russian xx 😁

[@Needmoremars]

Good find! You are correct, days of the week are named after corresponding numbers. Except Saturday (суббота) which is an adapted Shabbat and Sunday (воскресенье) which means resurrection.

[@1945Monique]

Hello from Belgium. Me too, I like the 15-minute videos. You are very clear and this is the perfect rehearsal after my first year Russian.Thank you to share your knowledge.

[@robertwaroff4303]

I know this is late, but I like the longer videos. More in depth information is always better to me....

[@amandastrayer6446]

I like having all of this information in one video :) I just pause it or rewind if I need to take extra time. This is very helpful. Thank you! Способа

[@carenuithol9483]

I prefer video's on specific topics. My tutor teaches me but after I use your videos for pronunciation. You do such a good job of making it all make sense. I like being able to look up the specific thing and listening to it over and over again. Thank you so much.

[@glenryseff9858]

I like the two segments together, because they are related. I really appreciate you carefully explaining the pronunciation. Thanks Fedor

[@dwbush777]

Thank you very much for posting your Russian language videos. They are very, very helpful and I like your pronunciations. It’s easier for me to learn when you pronounce the words repeatedly and slowly, then normally. I’m looking forward to following all of your lessons! 👍🏼

[@cynthiasaldivar7591]

You make it look easier to learn russian🇷🇺😊Thank you and greetings from Barcelona

[@minzy102]

Spent 53 days in a row using Busuu. I find that they give me the basis to a subject, then I watch your videos for more insight and then to practice, then go back to Busuu to complete that activity. These videos ARE SO HELPFUL! I cannot stress this!

[@katsayshii]

LONG videos! It's nice to bulk them so I don't have to constantly change or look for the second part, it's more practical and I seem to be more focused if I don't have to mind switching to other videos, which often distracts me or making an excuse for myself and use it as a break to do something else. And I really want to learn more Russian from you ^^ THANK YOU for making this channel by the way! I can surprise my boyfriend's mother soon by speaking Russian to her (:

[@jvlm3091]

It's good to have weekdays and months together. Excellent video.

[@josepgarcia2534]

Long videos are the best. It’s so good and your videos are so easy to understand

Bro you are a good teacher!!! Excellent way clear the concepts 🥰🥰

You are an excellent teacher...Love you so much...wish i was able to learn from you in real life..you would have made me become an expert in russian..so good you are bless 😘

New to russian, thanks to drops and duolingo plus couple other little things. Not much past say a couple months of actual lesson in my russian and just want to say - the more Russian grammar I observe, the more I understand why there is a problem with alcohol in Russia.

in Greek and Portugues is the same. They use for example in Greek monday δεύτερη (deftera) which is mean Second day. τρίτη (triti) third day. etc. They have the same systemen in Russian.

Pity he doesn't mention this, then. Sounds rather useful info.

[@rosiez4052]

I've been trying to learn Russian since the past summer with youtube videos and i just found out about you now, and honestly you are the only one that explains it in so much detail! I actually feel like i am making progress now!! T

[@yiannistsevremes9126]

Hi Fedor! Thank you for your work and your great help you provide to all us who wish to learn your beautiful language! To reply to your question: i would prefer shorter videos of 7-10 minutes for more complex and deep grammatical subjects. But for easier vocabulary or russian culture subjects, i would prefer videos like this one, length 15-20 minutes. Especially, for russian culture and habits you cannot expand enough in short videos. Thank you so much!

[@russwriter17]

You can make really long vids! I like them a lot! Spasiba from Switzerland!

[@deepeshkataria664]

Hii Fidor I'm from Rostov on don.. I am learning russian and I was searching how to pronounce week days in russian and I got this video.. I was very happy to see you taught months names also in the same video . Thank you :)

[@tzaoriana]

Shorter videos with a spesific topics is much preferred for me. But it is only my opinion. Thank you so much. I learned a lot from you

[@fernandopepes8485]

I just started to watch your videos and I already love it. Thank you so much!!!

[@carenuithol9483]

Thank you. I was struggling with the pronunciation of these words. This video made it all clear.

You are real good at teaching ,my friend. thanks heaps, am just a dabbler and your videos make it lot easy for me to make sense of Russian language.

[@osamakhaledal-dalati129]

I really like to watch short videos not longs And thank you

[@Cynthiavdkamp26]

I love all of your videos they're really helpful! I love the longer ones, where you take all the time and repeat everything. The more of your videos the better

[@myrnalopez2033]

Whatever lenght you want to upload your videos bc you are such a good teacher that it really helps me to acquire some useful information about русский язык

[@alicharsmith9970]

Hi Fedor, In reference to your question about length and content of videos, I think if the subjects you are talking about are related (like this one with days of the month and months of the year), I like one video. Yes, it is a little longer, but I am okay with that. If you were smooshing together two subjects that were unrelated like days of the week and colors, then I would say, two videos. I am going to practice my calendar now! Thanks for another great video lesson!

[@lutherpi24]

Thanks for your videos! I prefere them short. Because sometimes I don't have that much time to see the full video. Keep doing this incredible ! From Lisbon - Portugal B.W

[@Mars-Sello]

dude, you are cool. i've been watching russian lesson channel on youtube , but you are the best so far. simple and easy to understand. you explain every single word for beginners like me. Keep teaching people with these easy Russian lesson. Well, you are Subbed! with the Bell notifications :). хорошо! супер! спасибо большое !

[@edwarda.casimiro9808]

Make your videos as long as you need, to thoroughly explain the concepts, and we will adjust. This was very helpful, спасибо!

[@emregungor7853]

I was going to say, your long videos are great mate! and then realized this video filmed 6 years ago, hahaha.

[@christinebarrows6127]

You've been helping me a bunch, both the short and long videos have been great. Personally, I prefer longer videos, because I can multitask and learn russian wherever, without having to change videos so often. But I suppose some subjects are longer than others, so it all depends! Thanks again, so far your videos are the most educational and easy to abosorb that I've found on youtube. Rock on man.

[@harsh2081]

15 min video is okay. Highly appreciate your way of teaching.

[@jamesnorris1772]

In response to your question. I am OK which ever length you make the video, but when they are short it permits me to focus on that specific lesson until I feel confident to continue to the next.

[@vinaynaik7072]

I like your small ( picture in picture) face, easy to understand what you speak and easily understood pronounciation.

[@nolarainfatally201]

Long videos ! You make it so pleasant! Thank you, again ! I need allllll the help I can get !

[@Andromeda-ASMR]

Hey Fedor! thank you for the video. I think long and short videos are both good and helpful. It doesnt matter, because I want to learn russian anyway and your channel helps a lot! :) Cant wait for the next videos! :)

[@larrycastro7937]

Talking about whether it's ok or not to keep the days of the weeks and months in different segments of seven minutes or so. It's doesn't matter to me. We're going to have to learn it sometime, sooner or later, when learning the Russian language. Fedor, you're the best teacher, when it comes to learning the Russian language.

[@La-meiga-celtibera]

Hello! I am new to learning Russian and I enjoy learning from your videos! And this is a late response but it depends on the topic, I think for weekdays and months it was a good idea to keep them together, but I am sure that there will be topics that take longer so keeping them apart would be good. Anyways you're doing good as you are! Thanks so much for the videos!

[@winnietsai2433]

I love this video! Repeating is really a good way to learn a new language

[@zenah9426]

YOUR VIDEOS ARE AMAZING 😍😍😍 KEEP THEM UP !

[@eugenesedita]

Longer is better, Fedor. Thank you. :)

[@catemef6963]

I realize by now it is an old question but I would say the length of the video would depend on the subject matter. It makes sense to combine week days and months, so the length of this video is appropriate. If we were in a classroom lessons would be anywhere from about an hour to two or more. This 15 minute (or so) segments are very nice. I do wish there were some way to get KZbin to offer them consecutively. As a beginner I find it a little frustrating to sift through all the more advanced lessons to find the more basic lessons, but they are all so good I find I don't mind this so much.

[@catemef6963]

Sounds very good! I have been watching Burn Notice on Netflix and there is a lot of Russian spoken in some episodes. Although I understand so little of it, it is fun to pick out the words I have learned. My new project is to make flash-cards of the words I am learning to help me review.

[@ahnnahnewell5263]

I prefer like 15 min videos over 7 minute videos because longer ones go more in depth with stuff and that helps A LOT with memorization. I once watched like a 42 minute video and it helped me so much with grammer!

[@cathyg2682]

Thank you, Fedor. I enjoyed your video. The hardest part for me is pronouncing the 'b' together with the month or day. This length of video is fine, but I am very interested in languages and have studied Russian before, so maybe other people would find it long.

[@tomjameson3152]

Thanks again for a great video! I think related items like this work well as a 15 minute video. Best wishes from England - keep up the good work!

[@zinaz2130]

your videos are really simple and clear; they helped me a lot in my learning spasiba :)

[@ahlemlee2488]

Thank you . Russian seems easier with you Please can you do a video about the most common Russian words used/ needed to be used by a foreigner .

[@erkojerk]

I think situational vocab is a good topic for videos. For example you could dedicate one video to vocab at a restaurant, or how to order coffee, catching a bus etc. I found when I was in Russia I could say what I learned, but when someone asked me a further question back i had no idea what they are saying. For example, if I order a coffee I can make myself understood, but then they ask if I want milk or sugar, or large or small...I do not have this additional vocab so cannot handle the situation in Russian completely. I can survive but I cannot thrive and so knowing how to operate in a given context is very powerful. Thanks!

[@Ray_Parax]

I've done the accusative case just yesterday and thank to you I've understood it by watching the first part of the videos about the days of the week! :D Keep on your videos, they're very useful!! пока покааааа

To improve your writing with pen on paper use 4-5 layers of paper. This will create a softer surface giving a bit more resistance to the pen tip and allowing more control. I can tell from the sound that the surface is too hard. Thank you for the lesson.

I just realised that четверг and пятница start of like четыре (4) and пять (5) whilst also being the fourth abd fifth day of the week respectively. That makes it easier to remember :D

Tuesday - вторник (второй - second) Среда - wednesday (середина - middle)

[@arakaramed]

Thank you for another great educational video.

[@x-Mick-x]

пятница with пят in the beginning, like day 5 'пять'. Because of this and you starting with 'понедельник', makes me think the Russian week starts on Monday. Makes more sense than calling the weekEND or Sunday, the beginning of the week

[@MrHealfi]

I thought of that as well, makes it easier to remember!

[@pohvashche]

[@ArmandoGarcia-xy8bk]

Such enjoyable and thoroughly well explained videos! Could you please include, in a subsequent video, an explanation of the meaning/origin (etymology) of the days of the week? I understand that Wednesday and Friday are the "fourth" and the "fifth" day, and according to your explanation, Saturday stems from Sabbath, while Sunday is the "day of resurrection". Does the week in Russian normally start on Monday, and not on Sunday like in English? Also, when adding the preposition "B" before the day of the week or the month, is the noun taking the accusative case? Thanks!!

[@kolias33]
