[medusa210562]

[MickNich]

Perfect pronunciation, just perfect.

[DarkMeson]

After a long day - probably the most effective way to get anything through my skull. Please keep them coming (with lashing of atrocious word, play of course).

[Mascherina1964]

Very helpful!

[abruzz0]

It's his Huliganov voice, and it's awesome

@martialartsdude This is the future me, put it that way. BTW I just uploaded the second one.

@usenetposts Privet !!! As always you are the great innovator and best Russian teacher.Also it appears you have been working out in the gym.Thanks for the animation and bite size lessons.Love it!!!!

[cdhack1]

You can speak fluent english, so whats the point of speaking like this in russian lessons? i have to concentrate on what you're saying to understand u

[usenetposts]

@cdhack1 It looks like you answered your own question!

[cdhack1]

@usenetposts nah i still don't get the point of speaking that way

[TheLadyOwnsYou]

@cdhack1 I love the accent! I was thoroughly convinced he was actually Russian. As an actress I always like to brush up on my dialects, so it's helpful in both my learning of Russian and developing my arsenal of European dialects. I defend his accent all the way.

Pushkin the cat has followed his master into that animated forest. It's good to have a guardian angel to keep an eye on you.This is a great way to keep up interest between the rl episodes. It lends itself well for the irregulars and exceptions by being short and in an unusual format.

[theaaroneason]

Does lesnoi mean "forested" or "like a forest" or can it mean both?

[usenetposts]

@theaaroneason "like a forest" would be "lesopodobnyi". For example "idi otsiuda, so svoimi lespodobnymi brovyami" (get outta here, you with eyebrows like a forest). I'm thinking of the simplest adjective. Some people use "forested" as the adjective, but the word "forest" can serve as an adjective too. If I say "this is a forest ranger" or this is a "forest species", then we see that it can refer to working in or dwelling in a forest. Forested is an adjective referring to an area covered by ...

[usenetposts]

@usenetposts @theaaroneason ... forest, and as you see in English I can just as easily get away with talking about "forest areas" as "forested areas", although the latter is more specific. Similarly Russian has more specific adjectives for an area covered with forest. A word like "oblesyonnyi" would suggest an area that had been the subject of afforestation. But I'm dealing in these minilessons with only the most basic adjective - the rough equivalent of the one in English identical to the noun.

XAXA! You're really getting into these animations now aren't you. You'll be animating away instead of filming your journies now :P I can't remember if you said if there'd be an RL103 to come ever?? Nu tovarish, nada idti spat' seychas, but thanks again for the RL series. It was a great start to all the russian I now know. I'm learning some swedish at the moment, but would still love to continue with my russian! So 103 most welcome ;P ;P

[usenetposts]

@laoch33 To be frank even 102 is only 60% finished. But that takes time and planning, so these minilessons will be something to be going on with until I get more time.

[usenetposts]

@laoch33 I still do film journies, and I always liked to mix and alternate content on this channel. i have plenty of filmed journeys coming up, by the way. Look out for the Italian ones coming up, they should be quite good.

[Amiduffer]

How funny that your very early videos show up in the suggestion area. Loved the jokes you incorporated into your lesson.

[usenetposts]

@Amiduffer glad you liked!

Я предпочитаю видеть настоящие Вы

[usenetposts]

@djc463 You'd have to say "ya predpochitaiu Vas videt' v nastoyashchem vidye" or "po nastoyashchemu". When a pronoun is in the direct object, it goes to the genitive case. And I'm still one person, so sticking the adjective in the plural is a bit unclear. Best to turn it into an adverb. You can't fault adverbs.

[djc463]

@usenetposts Спасибо большое! я еще делаю такие ошибки слишком часто. Надо больше практиковать. Может-быть больше уроков от тебя помог бы? :)
