Рада, что вы узнали что-то новое из этого урока!

Обещаю, я буду послушным :-)

Yeah it´s easier to learn it when you´re a kid but even now, 35 years later, it shouldn´t be too difficult for you since our languages are somewhat similar. Long time ago I was going to study in Poland and started learning Polish at home. Within a couple of months, I was able to understand spoken speech to some degree. I guess it´s the same for you with Russian, isn´t it?

Interesting, was it due to cultural hatred towards Russians or the way in which Russian was taught in schools? Sadly, I've seen the former being very prevalent in Eastern Europe

@@RexGalilae Yes, that's correct, however as a kid I didn't understand it.

de nada ;)

muchas gracias, estoy contenta :)

Thanks for watching! I'm already working on a new video based on a famous Russian movie ;) Hopefully, I'll publish it next week!

Супер, рада, что тебе понравилось! 😃

Thank you!

Не за что!

Thank you! Yes, a good foundation is absolutely important when learning such a complex language as Russian. I'm glad you've found my videos helpful!

Thank you! 😃

Thank you!

Glad you think so!

You´re welcome!

Agree, it's very interesting to find these similarities between the languages that seem to be completely different!

Спасибо, Лео! Yes, I have students from Brazil, and they often tell me about similarities between Russian and Portuguese.

@@ARusPro Да, да! I've noticed quite a few of them, and it makes learning that little bit easier.

Thank you so much!

Пожалуйста! :)

Мы рады помочь :)

I'm sure you will say it correctly from now on ;)

@@argenisjrg Круто! Молодец, you've learned the lesson :)

Oh, I wish we had published this lesson earlier! But I'm sure you won't make it again! ;)

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm so glad to hear that you're making progress in your Russian studies 😀 Regarding your question, most likely you will not be understood and the person you're talking to will have to ask a clarifying question to get what you mean

ah I see. Thankyou!@@BoostYourRussian

Thank you for your comment and question! Yes, "я собираюсь + infinitive" is used to speak about your plans/intentions in the future. "Я буду + infinitive" is used to talk about an action/activity that you will be busy with during a certain period of time in the future (this is more certain than your plans described by "собираюсь") For example: Завтра я буду работать весь день. = I will be working all day tomorrow. (It's not "I'm going to" , here you are sure about that) Also, "Я буду + infinitive" is used to talk about an action that is going to happen regularly in the future. For example: В следующем месяце я буду смотреть фильмы на русском каждый день. = Next month I will watch films in Russian every day (Again, you are more determined to do that than if you were saying "я собираюсь...") The Perfective context I spoke about in this video has nothing to do with a prolonged or regular action in the future, it's just a promise you give someone in response to their command or request.

@@ARusPro понятно, спасибо большое за объяснение!!

@@maraj8215 Пожалуйста!

Hello! This is Anastasia from ARusPro. Yes, it is very important to know the Perfective counterpart of each Russian verb and to know its conjugation. Right now I only have such a list in the course book that my fellow teachers and I use in our lessons. Later I will provide it on our website. Thank you so much for watching and for your comment!

Also, I hope you don't mind, I just wanted to get things straight with using Perfective aspect in the Future. Of course, we use Imperfective in the future as well, just not in the context of promise that was described in the video. You should use "Я буду + infinitive" (Imperfective) in the following contexts: 1) When you talk about "a continuous process" in the future (i.e. when you mean "I will be busy doing it for a certain period of time") For example: Завтра весь день я буду работать = Tomorrow I will be working all day. It is quite natural to see this context in combination with "I can't do something because I will be busy doing this". "Пойдём завтра в кино? - Не могу, завтра весь день я буду работать" (Let's go to the movies tomorrow. - I can't, I will be working all day tomorrow" 2) When asking about a person's will/desire to do something: "Будешь играть в футбол с нами? - Да, буду. / Нет, не буду" = "Will you/Do you want to play soccer with us? - Yes, I will./No, I won't" Within this context we also differentiate a subcontext - offering food. We say "Будешь суп?", but the full phrase is "Будешь есть суп?" (БЫТЬ + infinitive "to eat")

@@ARusPro thanx alot for your help , much appreciated..

Спасибо за "лайк"!

We say "Я буду звонить" when we speak about a regular situation in the future. For example, if I go to another country to study, I can say to my parents: "Я буду звонить каждые выходные" (I will call you every weekend, or "I will be calling..." - which one is more correct in English?) But in this situation the imperative form would also be different. My parents would say "Звони нам почаще!" (Call us as often as you can!), or just "Звони!", they wouldn't say "Позвони" Thanks for the comment!

@@ARusPro both future tenses in english are correct but "I will call you every weekend" sounds more natural. Thank you for your explanation and look forward to your next videos.

Maybe it's too late, but as a russian I will say that your phrase "позвони мне - хорошо, я буду звонить" sounds a litle weird. The person wants you to call him once (not call multiple times) but you answer that you will be calling this person (multiple times). If there was "звони мне..." then it will be correct, but in that situation you better say "...хорошо, я позвоню" without буду.

Thank you, good question! Of course, in the positive answer you will use the Perfective form: "Помогу!" In the negative answer here we will use "Не буду помогать", and that will mean refusal to help. "I will not help you because I don't want to, this is my choice not to help you". "Не помогу" is used in a different context, when we negate the possibility to help ("I will not help you because I won't be able to"). For example, "Если ты будешь так много пить, ты станешь алкоголиком, и я уже тебе не помогу!" ("If you drink that much, you will become an alcoholic, and I will not (be able to) help you!")

Вот тебе ещё примеры ответов в неформальной обстановке "+": -окей -ладно -хорошо -давай -да, конечно "-": -не-а -нет -обойдёшься -я не могу -сам справишься -тебе уже не 5 лет, такого коня вырастили, пора бы уже самому научиться решать свои проблемы, ты об этом не задумывался?

Thank you for your feedback, William! We will fix it!

It is fixed now :)

Я не совсем поняла вопрос. Несколько вариантов чего?

@@BoostYourRussian Я не знаю как сказать лучше. Не знаю. Но я пытаюсь.

You always reduce "O" to "A" when it is not emphasised. Why is that? Just some historical changes in the language. For example, in Old Slavonic all "O"-s were pronounced as "O"-s. As for г sounding as "v", I will make a video on that!

@@ARusPro thx for ur answer,i recognize the pattern somehow when i read russisn text,but i dont like it

@@zm-lw1zf Я понимаю :) Yes, it must be difficult at the start, but as you progress, it will be less annoying!

@@ARusPro у меня есть книга сраанения старо церквено славянскега с современым русским,но я хорошее понимаю старо сл,хотя никогда не училь этого языка

You can hear in the announcements at railway stations in Russia "Поезд прибывает", so "прибывает" is sort of a formal way of saying "the train is coming". If I was standing at the platform and talking to my friend informally, I would say "Поезд идёт". I wouldn't use the word for "now" ("сейчас" or "теперь"), because the unidirectional verb of motion "идёт" in the Present Tense already tells you this is happening right now. By the way, if you want to learn the difference between "сейчас" and "теперь", watch the corresponding video on my channel. :)

ARusPro what if i say Поезд прибывает прямо сейчас to a friend? Is that correct? And thank you so much for a rapid response☺️

@@ryan6600 Yes, you can say that if you want your friend to hurry up and not miss the train (like, it's coming RIGHT NOW) :)

Это обычное будущее время, а не то правило, которое объясняют в уроке :)

I knew someone would remember this song :) This is a different context. It's not an answer to a request, nor a promise. In this sentence you are saying "I will be doing this for a long time in the future", or "I will be busy with this for a long time in the future" (the key word here is долго=long), so you are describing a process, a continuous action in the future, and that is why you are using the Imperfective aspect.

Yay! Thanks for watching!

Thank you, Eduardo!

ARusPro I like the way you teach. I’ll most definitely check out more of your videos! How do I say have a good/nice day?

@@lalolbc Hi Eduardo, I made a couple of videos on this on my old channel: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nLZynrmnm7SdqX0.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a7xoqJimv8fYfYk.html

Yes, we are!

Haha 👍

Sorry to hear that! I´m sure you´ll find another channel that teaches Russian exactly the way you like it

Спасибо за комментарий. Я вас понимаю :) The goal of these lessons is to explain difficult grammar aspects, and I think it is better to give explanations in English, so that learners understand better. You can watch my videos to get explanations about the things they won't explain in textbooks and Kristina's videos to practice your listening skills and increase vocabulary :)
