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".

Да лана, можно сказать "Повеселитесь там сегодня 😊".

"to hang out" можно перевести и буквально - "зависать". "Давай зависнем" - "Let's hang out"

Tbh I think you can say "have fun" as "повеселитесь там!" but what Feodor suggested (хорошо вам провести время) is more default and formal.

i wanted to say how helpful i have found your channel. started learning russian 2 years ago. this place has helped me stay motivated with easy to watch quick lessons that keep me inspired and wanting to learn more. ❤

I heard "it's impossible to have fun in Russia". I really enjoy the sentiment that you don't just leave things hanging in Russian like "let's do something" and in the end nothing gets done, you have to be active and decisive about it.

I'm russian and recently caught myself at trying to say "good for you" in russian as an answer to "I have passed my exam", and at the time I came to "рад за тебя". It's funny that I chose English feeling in my mind and couldn't express it, I stumbled.

0:16 - повесилиться. Sometimes оторваться or побеситься. 2:02 - желаю повесилиться or удачно оторваться

To hang out is a fairly recent addition to the spoken English language it really doesn't make sense but we all know what it means Loving the videos

Not too late to sign up for Fedor's summer Russian bootcamp! No, I'm not getting paid to say this. 😊

Great video. I love topics like this. I think you did one about the saying: “ I’m excited!” Which was helpful. Because I always wondered how to express that idea

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!!!

How about “зависать” for hang out? Mы зависали в баре.

You’re an amazing teacher. I love your style. Please keep doing everything that you are doing.

You are so awesome. Thank you for this! This is so important. These tools will be put to good use!

We also have a old-fashioned translation of the phrase "to go out", - "выйти в люди". This phrase has exactly the same meaning, but now you can only hear that from older people.

Good job and good info

hang out = зависнуть

Думаю, что я мог бы заменить "have fun". Есть слово веселиться, но можно добавить приставку "по" ( [по]веселиться). Таким образом, если моя девушка уходит на мероприятие/вечеринку/встречу, то при прощании, я мог бы сказать "повеселитесь" или "желаю повеселиться". Что, по своей сути, полностью передает смысловую нагрузку фразы "have fun".

I'd say тусоваться in the modern implication is a completely direct translation of "to hang out ". Or even "тусить", which is a second order slang.

Big Guy Fedor, I signed up for your boot-camp course yesterday. I still have to finish the exam. I will do this today. 😀Cheburashka

"Переводить" с языка на язык это вообще тупиковый подход. Языки это просто разные наборы слов и выражений, подходящих к определенным контекстам. По этому нужно думать или на одном языке, или на другом. Или, если нужно сделать перевод, не пытаться переводить по слову, а понять мысль и пересказать её своими словами на другом языке.

Мне очень нужно было эти фразы! Огромное спасибо Федору! Джессика Хартселл ❤

Thank you so much 👍❤😊

2:08 you can say just "повеселись там" or "повеселись" pretty same with "have fun" also russians have "развлекаться" and "раздувать" (some rigional word)

2:01 "повеселись" 3:40 "го отвиснем" 4:28 "погулять" / "проветриться"

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

Use yandex translator lol, it has planty of context examples and it's definitely good at translating russian))

Спасибо большое.

You forgot the 3rd meaning of "to go out". Which is dating sm1 romantically...or go on a date. Ex. I've been going out with for 3 months now. As....I've been dating her .....

Веселиться would be "to fun" as an intransitive verb if you translate it literally. Or "to fun oneself."

"- have fun!" may be translated as "Повеселитесь там!" in informal context "- to hang out" mb as "Зависать" "take your time" is an idiom, so yeah, use an indirect translation All of these can be easily translated except one Not the level of "sibling" tho ofc

In Czech, we say makes sense pretty much the same as in English (literally "it gives sense"). 🙂

Well we can say "хорошо повеселиться", I don't.. really see anything wrong with that.. When she'll come back, I could ask "повеселились?". Like, that would not be something out of the ordinary

When you were discussing ‘have fun’ or ‘hang out’ I was expecting ‘гулять’ to be mentioned.

I haven't been to Russia for 50 years and the language is americonized to a degree that without basic English I wouldn't understand modern russian. And it's not just english words but also phrases, and the manner. In most of the cases 'to have fun' has a direct translation it is just a more general term and depending on the context has different translations. Without knowing the context i would translate the phrase as 'развлекаться' but that's me.

" To Go out " можно перевести как : "пойти развеяться, поменять обстановку".

Hang out ещё будет "собраться". Давайте соберёмся. Let's hang out.

"makes sense" -- "разумно". Edit: there are things that you can't say in Russian: "I will win" is deprecated and sounds like a joke for some reason, "we will win" does. "чуду-юду я и так победю" is the only use I've heard.

А сказать "Повеселись"? Не пойдёт для have fun?

For a GREAT musical translation from English to Russian of a well known musical check out "CHICAGO". Get the sound track. Then find the Russian translated version done by Phillip Kirkorov. YOU WILL BE AMAZED!! The Russian singers he uses sound PRECISELY like the American singers. The fascinating part is many of the idioms in the words when translated into Russian ARE MORE ACCURATE and EXPRESSIVE!! When my wife found the translation online I listened to it and was TOTALLY AMAZED!!!!

I have trouble translating "it's wholesome", because theres no direct word for it in russian.

To have fun - навеселе

Serious Learner here: It seems that the website link in the description is not taking me to the website. (Serious Learner - started learning about 2 years ago for my fiancée (and possible professional opportunities) and I am planning to try for the TRKI soonish.)

The phrase I really scare in English is "to go out", you would never know neither they want to beat you outside or get a date

"I'm having fun" - can also be translated as "it's normal". How are you doing? I'm norm!

Более подходящее для русского в "makes sense" - это АРГУМЕНТ. Аля: "Аргумент. Убедил. Так и есть"

Do you know why U in English often becomes В in Russian? Like autobus > автобус, Europe > Европа, Australia > Австралия? Is it related to the Latin root?

Да можно сказать по-русски "повеселись там" вместо "have fun" в английском уходящей жене. В чем проблема?

Hmmm, here I was thinking "to have fun" is untranslatable into German.

And what about “развлекайся” for (have fun!) ?

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".

In Australia at least, "to go out" can also mean "to go on a date (with someone)" or "to be in a (romantic) relationship". I'm not sure if this meaning is used outside of Australia though.

Хахаха - не торопись! Я точно знаю, из-за того что много раз мне это говорили! 🤣

I don't know if it's the same in Russian or not,but in Arabic there are way more phrases to say "it doesn't make sense" than "it makes sense"

Спасибо большое

Can you translate: Surely, you can’t be serious. I am serious… and don’t call me Shirley.

Я понимаю is how I say It makes sense. I guess I am not quite right. Thanks for the suggestions.

привет, видела твое видео про перевод тик токов янчика, но как насчет разбор русских мемов и шуток? я думаю, что иностранцам может быть интересно узнать больше о такой части русских

What about "Fair enough"?

Я из России и мне хотелось бы с кем-то поучить английский, попутно со мной можно учить русский язык, ведь я носитель)

"Повеселись там" - плохой вариант?

Чёрт, приятно, когда кто-то говорит на английском, и всё абсолютно понятно, даже если это ускорено на 1,5. In English a lot of phraces, that sounds oddly in word-by-word translation. "Have a good time", "undone shirt" and et cetera, we just use another words for describing same things. You can only hold it in your mind. (Sorry my poor English, btw). Стой, а ты из России? Тогда понятно, почему твоё произношение такое чистое для моего слуха.

- Я кайфую. Что за бумерская фраза) Кто так говорит в 2024

Nah, the phrase "Давайте вместе проведём время" isn't one that was in my social circles. It feels more natural to suggest "Давайте (вместе) сходим куда-нибудь" - how about we go somewhere nice.

❤❤❤

1:30 сам виселица

I am having fun.... HeT.

To have fun - буквально "веселиться".

There is the classic question and answer sequence, of a mother to her son: "Where did you go?" "Out." "What did you do?" "Nothing." I wonder if that would even translate to Russian.

Весели́ться🥳 Ви́селится💀

Just thought of another. "Chill out"!! I'd love to hear the russian translation for that😂

Мне интересно будут ли у тебя уроки "уличного" русского. Например сокращения до "мож пойдём куда?". То есть максимально ленивая речь :D

А в чём проблема сказать - Повеселись или повеселитесь..?

Let's hang out= давай потусуемся

Going OUT OUT...

Everything is easy to translate. Hope in comment below everything is solved

чтобы повеселиться

I just searched the term "running on empty" in russian. N I'm pretty sure the translation's not correct.

Как сказать -сонскрин- на Русском

Hang out - отрываться

translating words is not translation, and the statement that something is "untranslatable" is sheer BS. Anything that can be said in one language can be said in another. And it's not about translating words.

It seems so difficult to learn Russian 😢

So you can’t have fun in russia🤷🏾‍♂️, you are right, some things can’t be translated 🤦🏾‍♂️🫡

Получать удовольствие?

Fun doesn’t exist in Russia

If you can't translate from english to russian, it's because you lack knowledge of a languag.

I have fan. В Москве жара

Kaifuit)

My understanding is that expressions that cannot be directly translated are called IDIOMS. For example, "I am all ears" means "I am listening carefully" and it loses its intended meaning when translated.

Какое серьёзное игнорирование русского-матерного!

"Sovereignty of neighboring countries" is apparently a difficult thing to say or think in Russian.

интересно как тональность его голоса меняется когда он говорит на русском. реально язык орков.

27 second ago 😨😨

I have another one: "I surrender" or "My bad" or "I shouldn't have invaded sovereign country" or "I'm sorry"

"I love NATO".

Putins troll We dont care

Can Russian's say "Our war on Ukraine is a crime against humanity for which we are all culpable" ... Maybe not though for reasons other than linguistics.

Hang out ещё и "болтаться" как в "молодняк болтается у гаражей" - "the kids are hanging out in the garage", перевод естественно с поправкой на особенности быта и жилой застройки.

❤❤❤
