Prepositions В and На | Russian Language 

Does this guy realize how many people he's helped? 😭😭😭🔥

Hi Fedor, Your teaching method is very enjoyable, clear & concise. I'm glad I found your channel. Большое спасибо!

Красиво играешь на пианино! Я из Греции и я тоже играю на пианино. Я изучаю русский язык три года. Я люблю твои видео, спасибо огромное за то, что ты поможешь нам глубоко изучать этот прекрасный язык! Здорово!

I was wondering "would he ever play the piano?" xD and now here you are! Great Job, man! Thanks for what you're doing!

to lie = the situation, in rest (this is what you mean about the forks) to lay = the movement (chicken lay eggs) By the way, I really enjoy watching your videos!

Here are my sentences, I apologize in advance if everything is misspelled 1. Кошка на столе 2. Я в офисе 3. Я в кафе

Thank you very much for all of your wonderful videos. They are helping me so much!

It's one of the most important lessons and Thank God that I've watched it.

Thank you for teaching. I have much respect for you in this regard!

You are explaining in amazing way . Thanks

I am happy your channel is progressing eachday💕

Федя у тебя здорово получается! Так держать.

Excellent channel. Thank you!

Hi Fidor, i have been studing russian for almost a year, but i didn't understand topics like this one. Your vídeos al helping me very much, thanks :D

Thank you so much for this video. I was having such a hard time trying to understand the difference between the two)))))

Thank you its great explanation 😊

Thank you for teaching. I have much respect for you in this regard! In English, "a fork being in the table" does not make much sense (unless you can actually put something into it; For example a drawer). In terms of organization, I can see how a fork could be "in the organization" of a table's arrangement. These words are synonym to each other.

Hello, my friend. You are an intensely gifted teacher. Thank you so much. The next chord is a C.

3 weeks in and Fedor has been my secret weapon 💪

Большое спасибо! you are very good at learning out.

I am in lesson now, instead of listening teacher i am listening you. Great lesson great teacher thank you so much!

This video is SO helpful..

Good video! A word to the wise: you were saying "infinitive" which in English is for verbs. For nouns it is "nominative".

You’re really good at playing piano Ferdo

Your videos are very helpful for me! I decide to learn Russian by myself these days ago and I find it very easier for me to understand. Congratulations! Well, here comes my atempt hheeh B - Сан Паоло в бразилию | бабушка в машине | собака в мой дом Ha - Иван на площаде | я на пляже | кот на кровате

Thanks a lot for the lesson

Thank you very much

Hi Fedor, you showed engaging body language in the opening. You could use more of it later in the video. You could also prepare small cut outs of paper, with words or endings on them, and moving and swapping them to show different usages of one word.

Thanks for this and this really help because I got confused with this part.

Terimakasih Victor, anda seorang guru yang pintar mengajar 👍🙏

Thank you.

Great explanation

Bro, yr video really help me n I like it too bcz m currently stayng in kyrgyzsthan, medical student, so we r still in learng Russian language,

hey my friend you're doing great in teaching this language. Let me know if you are doing any personal online classes or other 30 day challenges and such. thank you! спасибо !

sorry about my last question, I asked it before watched the complete video. It reminds me a bit of German prepositions and how they sometimes are with a 3rd or a 4th case.

This is very helpful. Do you write in print rather than cursive just for the sake of clarity for the viewing audience? I thought I had read somewhere that Russian is mostly handwritten in cursive. Or is that just in schools?

Прекрасно 👌🏻

Excellent

I think the difference is in the focus of the context of the sentence. Accusative case in focuses on movement and process of moving (going). Also to use it transitive verbs. Second is declension To help with the focus on masculine nouns when the noun is animate the noun and declines meaning the ending changes. Use the preposition to emphasize the movement. Some verbs do not need a preposition and that is also focus on the movement and Accusative case. In the prepositional case the focus is on the location. The action of going is not important. You are at the location. Also the preposition is ALWAYS used. So в and на can be used used in either situation and they mean the same thing BUT the difference is the focus and meaning of the thought or message being conveyed.

thank you

Thank you

Hi Fedor, I like your videos a lot. There's a difference between to lie (static) and to lay (dynamic). Bye, bye.

Great job

Thanks

Good video... Good job

Omg I just want to curl up and hide u see a blanket! I’m so confused sometimes but I can’t give up on learning Russian!!

Thanks.

Песня замечательная! Также спасибо за русский урок!

Федор, спасибо огромное за все видео, они очень полезные, но я думаю, что Вы не объясняли о «на» с винимательным падежом. ведь я могу сказать «моя голова взрывает на 10 000 юпитерочки», так как я употреблял кислоту, затем слушал Сюиту Планет при Густава Холста, было при времени, когда всё начинался мне быть «наполненным смыслом», и мне было как прям действительно понял как использовать эти предлоги. я и был бы не скинул, но так как Вы утвёрждали, что исправляете каждое божее предложение...... я думаю, что наверняка, я прав но просто хотел слышать мысли из носителя русского языка. Спасибо большое ещё раз, держись с превосходной работой!

loved that intro

I was sure you were gonna resolve my problem with "на" and "в" when you started with the piano lol The phrase that completely stuck me in Duolingo was "он играет на пианино" 😂😂😂

Fedor your videos are all amazing. I'm from Chicago, Illinois. Are you available if I would like private lessons online? The videos help a lot but I want a more personalized way to learn based upon my personal strengths and weaknesses that you notice so that I can learn more efficiently.

I'm a Russian, learning English, and among the different studying activities watching Fedya's youtube-channel. I'm looking for English speakers, who I can communicate with. Of course, I'd very pleased to teach you my native Russian. I'm not so perfect teacher as Fedor, but not so bad choice for speaking practice, I think))) So, you're wellcome!

Nice intro❤️

excellent

Большое спасибо! на самом деле это легче чем вы думаете я про то как вы учите русский язык я учу уже более 1го года и мне не хватает практики у меня очень много проблем с орфографией я не знаю когда правильно ставить запятые довольно смешно не так ли :^)

really good at piano

Ja jestem w domu Я в доме (I'm inside the house) Dzieci są na stole дети на столе (The kids are on the table) Ja idę na stół Я иду на стол (I am going onto the table)

Привет Федор! В: 1. Мы в больнице 2. Она в парке 3. Он озеленение рис в ферме На: 1. Я видел себя на телевизоре 2. Моя кошка на кушетке 3. Оно на стуле Are these correct? Thank you so much for teaching us Russian Fedor! (By the way, I just searched the nouns and stuffs from the dictionary and applied these prepositions with it hahaha)

Dear Федя, thanks for your videos! With your help it's much easier and entertaining to learn the most beautiful languages on planet earth! Is "В ресторан ребёнок выкарабкивается из-под стола" correct? I am quiet unsure about that.

Where to? vs. Where? Where = где but Where to = куда? (I think). Using the question words would have been even more helpful here to explain why the words are changing in terms of meaning.

Can you do common conversations with common culture?

How it affects city or country names that ends with other letters, like Y, for example?

I’m late to the party but I’m starting to learn Russian. Your vids are the best thing on the internet to learn Russian! I have one clarification question as I am a little confused with “B” You add “Y” to feminine nouns where you are “going, walking, travelling” to it. Is that right? And you add/change to “e” if something is located in, at something? Is this the same for all cases? Uggggghhh why is Russian so confusing! Ахахаха

Мой собаки в машине. Мои кот на доме. Thanks Fedor greetings from Перу!

Спасибо

This video was really good. Спасибо! Here are my sentences: В:1. Я в доме. I am at home.2. Я иду роботе. I am going to work.3. Моя кошка в кухне. My cat is in the kitchen. На:1. Я на пляже. I am on the beach.2. Кошка на кровате. The cat is on the bed.3. Собака на улице. The dog is on the street. I also have questions! I know you said на can be for at, like for an event in the open air, but can на also be used for indoor events? Can в be used in expressions such as " I'm in love", or "back to square one", and "I'm on the ball"? I was using an app for a while that would give out sentences to write in my target language and native speakers would correct them, but a lot of times they would do that without saying why it was wrong. Do you know how frustrating that is?? Especially for Russian?? (I'm sure you do, that's why you make these videos! 😃) There were no grammar tips at all throughout the lesson. Thank you for taking the time to look at our comments, questions, and sentences, as well as making these videos. It really helps to see and hear what we're learning.

hi do you channel to teach the paino ?

forks lie in the drawer (not lay, and not table) the table is laid with forks (when the forks are on top of the table - most English speaking people do not get that correctly either) (drawer is the place, typically not in the table, but in a cabinet) :-)

Feodor, is there any place on the internet where i can chat with other Russians ? Thank you.

Hi Fedor. I use the app called Busuu to learn russian (and your amazing videos of course). The app asks you to write exercises, and others can correct you, but they don't explain the corrections. Today I wrote "я живу в Данию", but everybody corrects it to "Дании", why is that?

I loved you

Do you have a lesson just of auxiliary verbs and prepositions? No needed with examples but would just love to have, how many auxiliaries and common prepositions are in русский. Спосибоь

1. На улице холодно. 2. Я работаю в банке. 3. В туалете нет света.

Very good explanations indeed. I notices you used to pronounce a non stressed O like a A. My teacher, from St-Petersburg, told me that in her hometown O must be pronounced O unless you want to sound snobbish. In Moscow however, people tend to prononce A. Is that true? Which city are you from?

В 1. Моя кошка в квартире 2. Влад в его офисе. 3. Я пошёл в библиотеке. --- На 1. Я на центре. 2. Наручные часы на конторке. 3. Мой тетрадь на кресло.

Hello! I have a question... Why the 'correct' form to say: "I need to cook rice for the lunch" is with "Мне надо приготовить рис *на* обед" instead of "рис *для* обед"? I'll appreciate a lot for the given help

Omg, can we be friend?! You are a fu**ing great teacher !!!

Great video. What is the rule that determines whether 'B' has a 'fuh' sound or a 'vuh' sound before the noun? Thanks!

Don’t play Beethoven like Rachmaninoff :-P. Although a romantic sounding piece, Beethoven is from the Classical period. Too many hesitations, and holding back. Just play it. Classical pianist here :-). Free advice in exchange for the Russian help. Anyway, thanks for the lesson. Your videos have been very helpful!

I think I get it? В Он в библиотеке. Они в гостинице. Она в музее. На Она на стадионе. Они на улице. Он на даче.

For van Beethoven I give from the start like.

FEDOR, PLEASE EXPLAIN SOMETHING: You mentioned at least twice that masculine nouns don't change. Yet, you changed them twice in this video??

What is the rule for countries and cities

Кошка в комнате Собаки в машине Я в автобусе Сурп на корте Я на горад Яйцо в на парке This is my sentence, thank you very much your a hero :D

I seriously couldn't understand what i was being taught more than forty minutes he laid it down in a shorter time with more detail 😭

Here is my phrases: With "в": 1- Они в здание (They are in the building) 2- Игорь в кинотеатре (Igor is in the cinema) 3- Олег в комнату (Oleg is going to the bedroom) With "На": 1-Сергей на пляже (Sergey is at the beach) 2-Катюша на классе (Katiusha is at the class) 3- Kнига на столе (The book is on the table) (This last is a tribute to Brazil, and the old joke about learning english)

В: 1. Я хожу в реку 2. Мой друг в Москве 3. Они идут в парке На: 1. Моя мама на работе 2. Этот нож на столе 3. Мы сейчас на мосте Thank you very much for your helpful videos. Much love from Brazil ♡

02:52 Another trap for Polish speakers :J In Polish, "wilki" means "wolves" :q Anyway, why wouldn't it be more appropriate to say that the forks are lying ON (на) the table? They lie on the SURFACE of the table, not INSIDE of it, right? 15:20 So what exact cases are those? I guess that the second one (where?) is the prepositional case, but how about the first one? (where to?)

I think I've heard or seen the phrase, "на почту." Is that incorrect? If not, are there other exceptions like that?

1. Мы идём на концерт / We are going to the concert 2. Я забыл свой телефон в машине / I forgot my phone in the car 3. Моя собака на столе / My dog is on the table 4. Я был в школе когда ты пришёл домой / I was at school when you came home 5. Она купила молоко в магазин / She bought milk at the store 6. Я уехал на работу два часа назад / I left for work two hours ago

How can you distinguish (make a difference) between going TO a store and being IN a store when there only one preposition for this meaning?
