It’s amazing how you are to explain SO MUCH in so little time, yet still be clear and effective. That’s a skill I’m sure is not easy to accomplish. Thank you!
You did it again Fëdor. Such a great video as usual. You managed to explain something complex in the simplest way, which definitely gives me a little more hope to continue learning Russian.
Извените что я вам решил посоветовать хотя вы меня об это не просили, наши дети учат родной русский в школе 10 лет все правила русского не знают. Русский надо учить читая книги на русском начиная с народных сказок и заканчивая серьёзной литературой. Читая вы будете говорить как родились в России. Досвидания неизвестный товарищ, приезжай в Россию.
@@kalyanvolk1743I lived in Russia for two years but still found it’s so difficult, my vocabulary is good, I can read and write and understand to a certain extent I’m at B1 or B2 level but the grammar part kept me up all night crying, the падежи. О боже мой! Hardest thing for me to understand
I am currently in Week 4 of the BeFluent Intermediate Boot Camp...I highly recommend it to everyone who follows Fedor! There is Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced. He will announce the start date of the next Boot Camp series. BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!
I agree with the point of similarity with phrasal verbs in English. When you use one verb with many different prepositions, and the meaning changes every time. It's very similar
When i next get paid i will most definitely be buying this course. You are by far the best russian content creator and language teacher, it is amazing Howe you can fit so much information into a small time period and make it engaging. Thanks very much!
Знаете когда я смотрю это видео, я чувствую то самое чувство когда какой-то индийский чувак с ютуба на своём языке объясняет матешу, а ты всё понимаешь. И даже больше он объясняет понятнее, чем учитель
Prefixes are one of my favorite aspects (pun unintended!) of the Russian language. So glad to see you've created an individual course for them. For and the meaning of 'to be finished' still kind of makes sense for me... First, you're asking (nicely)... But then, you're done asking nicely, and begin a more intense form of questioning (you interrogate). That was the memory trick for that one that I made up during the camp, and it worked for me. In my opinion, best to learn the unpredictable combinations as individual words, rather than trying to tie the original meaning to it (at least in most cases).
I finally see how to use them, thanks! it’s almost the same of the Italian one (my native language), cool, this might be the first time since I started to study this gorgeous language, where I won’t have a headache studying its grammar.
I feel like the meaning of просить being changed to "to be interrogated" with the addition of the до prefix isn't that unpredictable because having been interrogated is a perfective form of the imperfective being asked something. It's certainly got a more negative connotation but it's reasonably following the same sort of pattern. That said, having the layout that you do makes it very clear that this will not be the case for all verbs. I, like many others here, am grateful to have your videos as a resource through my learning process. You're always very clear and concise in your explanations of concepts and illustrate the nuances of each word well. Thank you.
Another superb lesson! Your channel content is terrific 🙂 Your ability to explain skilfully in English is awesome! 😀 Thank you so much for your thoughtful, concise, beautifully presented videos.
About verb aspect, I've noticed that the imperfective form corresponds to the way verbs are used in English for instance, whereas the perfective form is really particular to Russian.
Непонятно зачем ютуб предложим мне данное видео, учитывая. что я и так являюсь нативным носителем русского языка😁 Тем не менее автор молодец, объясняет хорошо и понятно.
Примечание - "просить" и "допросить" не являются родственными лишь только из-за приставки "до". Глагол "допросить" происходит от существительного "допрос", тогда как глагол "просить" происходит от существительного "просьба".
ДОпрос, Опрос - просьба рассказать. Корень прос. Интересно слово прошение и попрошайка. Корень прос при помощи чередования согласных трансформировался в прош
Мне не нужно учить русский, он мой родной язык, но мне нравится это смотреть, очень воодушевленно преподносите😅. Кстати, ошибка в "допросили на границе", там "допросилм" у вас написано, исправьте😉
I'm still in the basic level of russian. I didn't realize the mistake and read it as it was properly written. Even with a basic level you can realize the mistake, or your brain correct it automatically, so I think it's not really necessary to correct it. Too much work for too little improvement
I studied several languages but I was honestly scared of starting out in Russian after being told it was horribly difficult. Then, speakers from the Caucasus (Russian = 2nd language) were Very surprised at that and found it really very straightforward. Subsequently, I found out that Russian vocabulary shares many words and roots with languages I already know, which had me tend towards ‘can’t be that hard then, no ?’. So, here I am. You got me hooked ! It’s easier than it looks ! 1 word + the right prefix will take us a long way. Thanks for that !! 😅
A good way to think about "aspects" is the meaning of "perfective" itself. It derives from Latin per+facere "through, thorough, thoroughly" + "to do, to make." Something is "perfect" if it is thoroughly, completely done; this is the perfective aspect of any verb, something which has been done to completion. The "Imperfective" is thus a verb which is ongoing, incomplete, recurrent, performed in a general sort of way -- anything but done completely and thoroughly.
i agree with the other comments , the skills to be clear concise is a huge booster in learning, my taunte jorunn in norway speaks french first then norwegian then ultimately english
Thanks for doing all this to help other language learners. I have a small request if it isn’t too much trouble: When do I know when to use “Всё в порядке” or “Я в порядке” or any others. (If there are any.)
It's quite easy. "Всё в порядке" - you just confirm, that's everything is fine. It could be literally anything. When you are asked about your mood, your progress in some task, when you stumbled and fell, but didn't hurt yourself, you could answer to surrounding people: "Всё в порядке" in sense of "Everything fine" and "Don't worry, everything goes fine". "Я в порядке" - it is mostly used in situations, when some dangerous or traumatizing thing happened near you and someone ask you "Вы в порядке?"/"Ты в порядке?", in sense of caring about your health or mental state. Then you answer "Я в порядке, спасибо", in sense of "I'm okay, thanks". So, in the end of the day "Всё в порядке" - is the best choice if you're unsure what to choose. It will work in every situation.
При таком количестве вариантов приставок, я уж испугался. Как мы это все используем не задумываясь. А иностранцы, изучающие русский, это смелые люди, им респект и побольше терпения в этом не простом деле.
So, I know there are two verbs for every one verb in English, like, видеть, увидеть, and брать, взять etc etc. So are there two types for each prefix verb, like, to finish eating would be доесть(imperfect) and a different verb (perfect) or even доесть(perfect) and a different verb (imperfect) if that makes sense please help me to understand
Not always two verbs, sometimes more or sometimes only one, but usually yes. You're question though is very valid. Actually, verbs usually exist in the following pattern: Imperfective verb with no prefix (есть) --> many perfective verbs with prefixes and slight specifics in meaning (поесть, доесть, съесть) --> imperfective versions of those prefixed verbs (поедать, доедать, съедать).
есть, 'to eat' - imperfective доесть, 'to finish eating' - perfective (meaning and perfectivness changed with addition of prefix) доедать, 'to finish eating' - imperf (perfectivness changed with addition of suffix). Secondary imperfective suffixes are: -а- and -ива-. Second imperfective is used when you need to use the meaning of a prefix but you don't want a perfective verb
i swear i was on discord just now and said to someone dagavarit while speaking about prefixes turns out its an actual word and fedor posted about it hahaha
Допросили - спрашивали и просили ДО тех пор, пока не получили все ответы 😂 тоже есть завершение, точка ДО которой делается дело (получение данных) 😂 префиксы очень связаны с одноименными предлогами
Поел (Poel) - i have finished eating (process) Доел (Doel) - i have finished eating (something) 1. Я поел 30 минут назад. I have finished eating 30 minutes ago. 2. Я доел рис. I finished eating rice.
доел - it means that you finished it, there are no more food. я доел хлеб - i ate the bread (you finished a specific bread, but the main thing is that it is no more) or i ate all bread ( there are no more bread at all, but you can specify that by adding "весь" я доел весь хлеб) я поел хлеб - i ate bread (it just past simple for "есть" - eat, no extra meaning )
No. It's actually very helpful for native English speakers to get full clarification of what he is conveying. Learning a new language and expecting to cope with full clarification of it in the new language just leads to misinterpretation and wastes time. His ability to explain so well in English is exactly what attracts many people to this channel. I know of other channels that speak only in Russian. They are easy to find.
No offence at all ! I love to listen to Russian as well, but the explanations in English and very practical on finer points for English speakers. It helps one's understanding in a big way and his explanations are excellent! Blessings to you and best of luck with learning Russian (I think you are well ahead of me! 😀)@@spanishconyolanda3814
I really like to take part in your classes, but unfortunately it’s not possible in Iran to pay in dollars:((( so i will never be able to take part. Good to those who are learning with you Feodor🤍 удачи всему
