    You explained this much more simply than my textbook, and a huge part of that was that you actually explained it well. This next part is just my opinion, but it makes sense to me. The difference between "this" and "that" is one of proximity. "This wall" would be the wall you're standing closest to, while "that wall" would be one of the other three. The same thing applies to "these" and "those": "these children" would be the ones near you, and "those children" would be the bunch of kids over there. And, thanks to you, I can finally correlate "this" with это, and I can also start using то, even though my textbook hasn't mentioned its existence yet. You'll be getting my response to PF #16 in a day or so.

    thank you for the videos! an idea for you would be to use simple russian speech to talk about something, and maybe use 'props' to tell us about the nouns that we might not know without having to use english, or just give a mini-lesson on the new vocab beforehand. Normal courses have things like that but the dialogue is very stilted and unnatural. It would be nice to hear natural speech.

      SuperRip7 The first sentence is a relative sentence where „that“ functions as a relative pronoun. He made a video on relative pronouns.
      czcams.com/video/Eb1BIIS-PDY/video.html
      In the second sentence, „that“ doesn’t function as a relative pronoun and not as a demonstrative pronoun. „I think that…“ would be „Я думаю, что…“.
      Что means „what“, but in this sentence construction, it means „that“.

    Hi Fedor, I started learning Russian just by myself and I really like your videos.
    Could you help me to clarify the following: If I refer back to something that I have just talked about, should it be adjusted to gender, or simply это can be used?
    Just a simple example: я купил машину, она мне нравится (as the car is female gender) or should it be: это мне нравится (to simply point at it in general) ?
    Is any of these preferred?
    Thank you Fedor, also for all your other great videos.

    • @BeFluentinRussian
      @BeFluentinRussian  Před 5 lety +3

      Any time you refer to an object, you will ALWAYS have to use a personal pronoun (он, она...), since all of our nouns have genders. Это can only be applied to events or when you generally describe something.

    So ЭТО can be equivalent to Czech "tohle, toto, tuhle, tamto etc..." if I get it correct. It looks like Russian is more complicated in this things than western slavic languages. :-D With that reastaurant I would say "chtěl bych tohle" and it's tohle or toto everytime. Only if I specify it more (for example I'd like to this soup) I have to use femine version "chtěl bych TUHLE polévku" :-D It looks like you have no translation for just IS in English, which is JE in Czech or JEST in Polish. Using ЭТО must be confusing even for other slavs, we using "TO JE" instead of it. For example "To je pěkné auto" - That's a nice car So it's more similar to English sentence. But I noticed Poles sometimes miss their JEST and saying only "To samochód" (That is a car) which wouldn't make sense in Czech language.

    • @NN-qv7if
      @NN-qv7if Před 5 lety +1

      Hey, it's confusing for Croats too, because "to" means only that (in neuter gender). 'This' is "ovo" f ova masc. ovaj. We also say To je... (that is ...). In practical sense, "to" (that) is just a little physically farther away than 'ovo' (this). And still, éto and éta sound the same in Russian /'etə/ or /'etă/. But all of this is very interesting :)

    These words are very old considering that the Sanskrit cognates are (etat = this) and (tat = that). Nearly the same. Tat tvam asi in Sanskrit would be Tot ты in Russian. No present of the verb to be in Russian right.

      In these examples ЭТО is a subject of a sentence. While НАУШНИКИ is a predicate. Subject is never to be governed by predicate, it never changes in accordance with a predicate. Compare the two following correct sentences: 1)Чьи ЭТИ наушники? , 2)Чьи ЭТО наушники?. The answers are different as well, with the slight difference in meaning: 1)ЭТИ наушники -мои. ( These earphones are mine) ,2)ЭТО мои наушники. ( These are my earphones). I hope it will help.

    • @SerpentDagger
      @SerpentDagger Před 4 lety +2

      My advice would be to watch clearly-spoken shows in Russian with English subtitles. It doesn't matter if you don't understand what's said at the start, just read the English quickly, then try to listen for it as the Russian is spoken. Try not to get bogged down by understanding every word every time, you'll probably get the general idea, and you'll get better anyway. Repeatedly having to listen to one phrase over and over again will only make you sick of the whole concept, and take time away from listening to other sentences that might be less confusing.
      I'd also recommend listening to an audiobook of something you're really familiar with. For me, that's been Harry Potter, which has a really good Russian audiobook for the first one, which is on CZcams. If you already well-know how the story you're listening to goes, then it's easy to keep track of at least the general idea from the speech. Over time the amount you understand will grow without your even realizing it.
      I've used those tips in learning Spanish, German and Russian, just to give you some confidence that I'm not spewing nonsense. :-)
