Soo, "the problem of the Russian language" is not that you can't translate English words into Russian but that Russian have many ways to translate them that are more context sensitive. Which makes Russian language more accurate. It's sounds to me that the video is mislabeled and should be called "Russian phrases that English can't deferentiate".

@EddyJean-claude we usually don't say "bravo" but in this situation you do can just say "bravo" without "for you". You can say "молодéц", "рад за тебя", "неплохо", "хорошо", "прекрасно"... But literally "bravo for you" doesn't exist in Russian. "Рад за тебя" translates as "I'm glad for you". "Я" throws out. But russians are usually very tolerant to improper Russian if you are a tourist. And your "браво для ты" will understand, and help you anyway. P.S. you forgot cases. When you use "для" you should use genitive case of "ты" - "тебя".

I am Russian American - grew up speaking Russian and English in California. A GREAT challenge for translation is to translate popular American rock n roll songs into Russian. For example the Stones - Ley's Spend the Night Together. I tried Billy Joel's "For the Longest Time" - I came up with "Na Vecki Vek". It's quite a challenge - ESPECIALLY to maintain the rhythm and sense of the song!!!

The word Тусова́ться is rarely used like this lately, with time it has transformed into shorter and more common Туси́ть. Words Тусо́вка and Ту́са are used like 50/50, depending on context, because they mean both a group of people and a party. Well, this sounds funny because party is exactly a gathering of invited people (partners) in the first place. But in Russian "тусовка" is a slang word so it's not used for political parties or romantic partnership, for those there's a formal word "па́ртия" borrowed from English as is. So here we come to an important conclusion - in English "party" means any gathering whether it's for serious business or just to idle, but "тусовка" means a gathering only to idle / celebrate / have fun, for serious stuff there are different words. Some examples of the slang usage: Можно у тебя потуси́ть немного? - Can I hang out at your place for a while? Зату́сим / Тусанë́м сегодня? - Shall we hang out today? Ну, чё, погнали туси́ть? - Ok, so, let's go hang out / have some fun? Приходи, у нас тут ту́са! - Come, we're having a party here! Здесь такая стрë́мная тусо́вка собралась, что я собираюсь свали́ть... - There's such a weird crowd here that I'm gonna leave... I've highlighted it, but remember, letter Ё is always stressed. картёжник - card player платёж - payment And don't forget to use the letter, because the meaning change can be huge, like for example: передохнём - we'll take a rest передо́хнем - we'll die out

Trying to translate an exact phrase word for word is a difficult exercise when the English phrase itself doesn't DIRECTLY mean what the words suggest, which is why it's better to use the closest match of the intended message. To "hang" means to suspend something with a rope or over an edge, and "out" is basically the opposite of "inside", so trying to translate the words "Let's hang out" directly is like saying "Let's go outside to hang or suspend ourselves with ropes", which would be a head scratcher. The intended message is "let's get together just to relax and/or not do anything in particular". One could then have fun trying to explain what "hang out" alludes to, like "being a couple of full sacks hanging in storage, not going anywhere or doing anything urgent or productive".

It’s funny that sometimes figurative meanings in different languages coincide. And "hang out" is just such an example of such a phrase. "hang out" can be correctly translated literally as "зависнуть," and in the figurative sense, it will mean exactly the same in Russian as in English. "Let's hang out" translates to "Давай зависнем."

@@marcplanet4776, that's right, and they borrowed it not because there wasn't a direct translation, maybe it was because they didn't understand the combination of "chill" and "out" completely or maybe just to sound cooler, maybe both, and sometimes foreign words are even getting borrowed just for fun :)

@@marcplanet4776 to chill and chill out have different meanings. To chill is to just be mellow, be carefree, to be in the present moment. Chill out means you need to cool off because you are being hot tempered, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that you need to become chill/mellow. You just need to step back and take a breath.

And what about “развлекайся” for (have fun!) ?
@bshthrasher3 ай бұрын
It is used sometimes. More often by parents to the kids and quite rare between peers. The reason is pretty simple, in Russian “развлекайся” sounds like a permission and not like a wish towards other person. And it is exactly because we hear it from parents when we grow up so it has this condescending tone to it like "I allow you to have fun". Of course there's nothing wrong with the word itself, it is absolutely fine in terms of meaning, literally it means "entertain yourself".
@marcplanet47763 ай бұрын
@@bshthrasher Thanks, that’s helpful. Would the meaning change if i used the perfective form of the verb: развлекись! ? I have the impression that when we use the imperative of the verb in imperfective form (развлекайся) it has more of this tone of permission like you said.
@bshthrasher3 ай бұрын
@@marcplanet4776, good thinking, that makes sense! Yeah you can use it ofc, but it doesn't sound natural as a standalone word, a native would say it like this for example: Ладно, развлекись там! - Ok, have fun there! Or like this: Развлекись по полной! - Have fun to the fullest!
@manukartofanu2 ай бұрын
@@marcplanet4776 "Развлекись" sounds unnatural, and this form is more likely to sound like a command, simply because it is rarely used. "Развлекайся" is a frequently used form, and it doesn't sound like permission, it's a wish. Perhaps someone is traumatized by their mother from childhood. But that's not your problem, guessing how someone was traumatized by their mother in childhood. Especially when learning a new language. In general usage, it is simply a wish. Similarly, "выздоравливай" is often used as a wish. Also, be careful when constructing phrases with interjections. They can change the meaning of a phrase to the opposite with different words. And I advise you to check what people tell you in dictionaries. Even native speakers sometimes misunderstand the meaning of words or phrases. The phrase "Ладно, развлекись там" is more likely to be perceived as permission than your original version. Simply because the word "ладно" is used in situations where you reluctantly agree to something.

Nice question! You can try this construction: " через не могу" ( even though I can't ) "Я работаю через не могу." = I work even though I can't work. "Я держусь через не могу" = I'm staying strong even though I can’t staying strong. etc. This pattern is very common in spoken Russian.

Usually when we're tired we say "я без сил" = I'm exhausted, or "я валюсь с ног" = I'm falling off my feet. Drivers have an idiom "я обсох", which means "I'm dry / I've dried out", they use it when tank goes empty on the road, non-drivers would be having a hard time understanding this one properly in a different context :)

Sometimes, but oftentimes there just isn’t an exact match. For example when converting between decimal and fractions. Pi = 3.14…… and in fraction the simplest is 4/3, but there are more accurate fractions such as 22/7 but it will never be pi. Like wise 1/3 in decimal is 0.33333… but you will never have enough decimal points to represent 1/3.

@greasher926 your translation here is poor. Correct translation: - Ты ведь сейчас несерьёзен? - Да, серьёзен... In your example, it is not possible to translate it as it is and not ruin the meaning. Because of the presence of pronunciation features. However, you can use your "смекалка" to come up with something similar. I would rephrase it like that: - Дядь, ты щас серьёзно? - Да серьёзно, и я тебе не дядька! There is no pun, but it feels the same. If you want to save the pun, you would need to use more of "смекалка".
