Have you ever wondered why Aleksey Karamazov was called Aliosha all the time, throughout the entire Karamazov Brothers book? Or maybe you've met Russian folks and they introduced themselves with some strange-sounding names? Do you know what is a patronymic and when to use it?
In this video I explain what parts a Russian name has - with examples! Watch to the end to see the short forms of common Russian given names. If you have more questions about Russian names, don't hesitate to comment them! And don't forget to give me thumbs up for that incredibly talented picture of Ivan, haha! XD
