I know you teach classes through Be Fluent, but you should seriously consider becoming a Russian language professor in the US or any other English speaking country. You have a fantastic way of explaining Russian grammar rules and those finer/ more obscure points that elude many students. Спасибо за информацию!
College is for the sheep of our society. Theodore is a leader who owns his own business, whereas a professor is an indoctrination machine where values and tradition go to die.
@@greatestytcommentator I didn’t say move to here permanently. I’d never suggest that. I do think he would make a wonderful university professor and I don’t know if there’s an opportunity to teach Russian to non-native speakers at a Russian university.
@@RickyLaFluer7 Well, you’re entitled to your opinion. I couldn’t disagree more . My experience tells me that people who don’t value a university education lack the skills needed to obtain one. And anyone who thinks going to university makes you a “sheep” clearly hasn’t attended one. At least not a reputable one. But good luck to you!
@@greatestytcommentatorI know right? I'm born and raised in the USA and I don't want to live here anymore... Of course the whole world is on the way down maybe I can move to Mars or something 😂😂
Привет Федор! I just wanted to say thank you for all the effort you put into teaching Russian on your channel and through the BeFluent Camp. You're my favourite Russian learning resource and I always learn a lot and get really motivated by your content! Большое спасибо! ❤️
I want to thank you for this amazing channel. Learning Russian in Ireland would be incredibly rare in my social circle yet I love the culture, music, people and particularly the amazing literature. It is my dream to reach fluency and make Russian a part of life!
This works for many verbs but not all, like сказать, нажать, воевать, греть, жить, бить (and they're not exceptions - there are just more groups than 2), but I understand that it's just a starting rule for beginners. Just thought it's important for them to know it doesn't apply to a lot of verbs.
I figured there would be some irregular form verbs. The congregation structure for Russian is almost identical to conjugation structure in Spanish. Put Spanish as a handful of reflexive verbs which refer to things that you do to yourself such as bathing or brushing your teeth, and we also have a handful of irregular verbs that don't follow traditional conjugation rules
Thanks to you I decided to learn Русский as my 2nd non Native language to learn and hopefully master (I'm a spanish native speaker). Seriously, thanks a lot for your content. Благодарю вас!
I LOVE seeing the similarities between languages, this is actually quite similar to learning latin languages too, very common in Spanish as if I am correct there are about 5-7 different conjugations per word also depending upon respect level too. Spanish is actually super formal compared to the English language and just watching this shows there are quite a few similarities just to Spanish alone. Great video! Learning a lot from your channel!
@@xojaxproductions7090 I think you're talking about a situation where it depends on the gender of the person. In English, it is only "my", but in Russian, it's "мой" (for men) and "моя" for women. I sincerely hope I've helped you
yea, thats the fault with Duolingo, it doesn't really go into depth. i go through the lesson and theres like 10 new words that just appear with no explanation to them upfront. His videos make for an easier and in-depth understanding.
Весьма интересный подход к изучению непосредственно отражающего ваши цели языка, - я полагаю, что переводчик справится со столь витиеватой и сложной формулировкой относительно привычных для иных языковых и культурных групп фраз и предложений.
You are wonderful! Федор, я люблю тебя. But is it important to catch someone you care about when they make a mistake. At 3:32 you state that in addition to the "T" you also take out the letter AFTER the "T" when what you mean to say, мой друг, is you take away the letter ( E or И) BEFORE the "T"! The letter AFTER the "T" is "Ь" which is always taken away with "T" in both verb groups. You may need a refresher on your English prepositions 🤭
Thanks a lot! I just discovered your channel as I decided to finally learn Russian (an old childhood dream that never had the chance to come to a realisation until now). You are a nice teacher! As a French speaker, having six different verb forms is perfectly normal, so 🎉. The pronunciation though is really difficult to me. Too much consonants 😁. It's like my mouth is glued or something
Hello Fedor, thanks for your Videos, I currently have a russian student, and your videos really help me to prepare the lessons! Could you make a second part about conjugation? I think that this one (probably because it is for beginners) was very superficial, there are a lot of verbs, that do the я-form with -y and not with -ю, and the они-form is sometimes with -ут. In addition, maybe you could explain how to study verb conjugation the best way, as the rules, when we use e- and и-conjugation are very complex and it's not done by saying -ать ist the first group, and -ить and the rest is the second group. I think if a foreigner want to speak russian correctly, verb conjugation might be one of the most annoying topics.
Hello, I'm from Russia, and russian is my native language. And, unfortunately, conjugation is a problem for me too) we have not only 2 types of conjunction, but else irregular verbs. So I know what you feel. I wish you good luck😊
Conjugation as the first thing to learn is the only way I can learn languages, until I learn that, it’s a no go for me 😅 but it’s oddly difficult to find explanations that truly make sense
Do we use the infinitive to express subjunctive moods? мне знать это? / am i TO KNOW this? (should i know this) мне узнать это? / am i TO LEARN this? (should i discover this) что мне говорить? / what am i TO BE SAYING? (what should i be saying) что мне сказать им? / what am i TO SAY to them? (what should i tell them) когда тебе это сделать? / when are you TO DO this? (when should you do this) когда вам уходить? / when are you TO LEAVE? (when should you leave)
The most weird thing is to strive to grasp grammar. Instead just do some practice on daily basis which we all do being kids , learning our mother tongue. This is the only resultive way to learn a language
I agree with your sentiment. That's how I learned English. Through video games, music and RU-vid I kinda submerged myself into the language and learnt through time (still do, obviously) how things go. Now I simply "understand" English without having to translate anything into my native tongue. But besides that we studied the language in class and I think grasping a little grammar while practicing helps tremendously with overall understanding. Or at the very least, gives you a little guidance when getting into it.
Bro thanks a lot! What about this word хотеть? For я(i) it would be хочу And for other forms is out of your tip! If anyone can answer i'll be appreciated 🙏
I have a question, can listening to Russian music and watching Russian movies help me to speak it? Because I’ve been watching Russian shows, and listening to tons of music, and I feel like it helps me.
@@dmitriypevzov8027 i think surrounding urself with a desired language helps even if its with little things. music can help with hearing through many distractions. Helps with tone, familiarity. anything helps.
I very much like your channel and its content. Perhaps you could write or post sth regarding your person, kinda CV, either here or on BeFluent. Спасибо большое.
Thank God I'm Russian. 😂 I'm terrified just imagining I'd have to learn Russian as a foreign language. Even native Russians sometimes are not sure how to speak correctly. 😂

Fedor, I am subscribed and pay $9.99 monthly. Why am I told that I am an inactive member? I tried to download the Conjugation Exercises and I received that message. Eric Calderone
