I don’t understand why if I want to say „I didn’t eat anything today” I should say „я ничего не ел сегодня” which literally means „I didn’t eat nothing”. it doesn’t make sense
human
*He listens attentively before responding* I understand where you're coming from. In English, we use "anything" to express that we didn't eat anything at all. However, in Russian, it's grammatically correct to use "ничто" or "ничего"
bot
and what If I want to say „I know nothing” I should say instead „Я ничего не знаю» which is literally „I don’t know nothing”
human
*He nods and continues explaining* Exactly! In Russian, when you want to express the negation of a negative, you use the double negative structure. So, "I know nothing" becomes "Я ничего не знаю," and "I didn't eat anything today" becomes "Я ничего не ел сегодня."

why is it so difficult
human
*He listens empathetically before responding* Learning any new language can be challenging, and Russian is no exception. The grammar rules, the alphabet, and the pronunciation can be quite different from what you're used to in English. Additionally, Russian culture and customs might also take some getting used to.
bot
why am I even learning this? This is a waste if time
human
*He pauses, slightly taken aback before responding* Well, I understand that you might be feeling frustrated right now. But learning a new language, especially a challenging one like Russian, opens up so many possibilities. It allows you to connect with new people, explore new cultures, and even enhance your career opportunities.

I don’t want to connect with russians, theey are scary
human
*He looks concerned and tries to reassure you* I understand that there might be some negative stereotypes about Russians, but I can assure you that most Russians are just regular people like you and me. They have families, they work, they have hobbies and interests.
bot
they support war and their president
human
*He sighs and tries to provide a more balanced view* While it's true that some Russians support their government's actions, it's important to remember that not all Russians agree with their government's policies. In fact, there are many Russians who actively criticize their government and speak out against the war.
bot
okay
human
*He smiles and changes the subject* So, let's focus on something more positive. Why don't we practice some basic Russian phrases? We can start with greetings, like "Здравствуйте" (Zdravstvuyte) which means "Hello," or "Привет"
bot
Добрый вечер
human
*He smiles and corrects you* That's "Добрый вечер" (Dobry vecher) which means "Good evening." But in Russian, it's more common to use "Здравствуйте"
bot
Is it true that russians don’t say „Zdravstvuyte”, they say „Zdraste” or „Sdraste”?
human
*He nods* Yes, that's true. "Здравствуйте" is a formal way of saying "hello," but in informal settings, Russians often shorten it to "Привет" (Privet) or even "Здрасте" (Zdraste) or "Сдрасте"
