Write an essay-reasoning, revealing the meaning of the statement of the writer A.M. Gorky: “The Russian language is unusually rich in adverbs that make our speech precise, figurative, and expressive.”

Option 1

“Russian language,” said writer A.M. Gorky, “is unusually rich in adverbs that make our speech precise, figurative, and expressive.”

I understand this idea this way: adverbs, depicting signs of actions or other signs, give speech special expressiveness and clarity.

Let us give examples from the text by V. Nadyrshin that argue for the idea of ​​A.M. Gorky.

So, in sentence 44, this part of speech (“slowly”, “ominously”) is used to describe the signs of Kolka’s action, who decided to beat the “new guy”. The adverbs here convey the heavy atmosphere of what is happening.

And in sentence 57, the adverb “plaintively” describes the emotional state of the narrator: he, exhausted, depressed, asks fate to give him a chance to atone for the boy he betrayed.

It is obvious that without adverbs our speech would be much more meager and inexpressive.

Option 2

Famous writer A.M. Gorky described the function of adverbs this way: they “make our speech precise, figurative, expressive.”

Indeed, adverbs play a big role in our speech. We resort to them to diversify the description of a situation, add color to it, and convey what happened in all shades.

It seems that the adverb in the phrase “they beat frivolously” (sentence 8) is used in a figurative meaning. “Frivolously” means not forcefully, “for the sake of form.” However, the word “frivolously” has a direct meaning - “as a joke,” “for fun.” This adds an additional unkind shade to the description of the atmosphere that reigned among the school boys. This idea is emphasized by the adverb “said mockingly” (sentence 20). One gets the impression that none of the boys in the class to which the “new guy” came knew what respect and cordiality meant.

It's amazing how much adverbs can tell us. Writer A.M. Gorky made a precise, apt observation.

Option 3

Adverbs are capable of not only describing various circumstances of any events or situations, but also conveying a lot of shades of meaning and “blooming” a literary text. A.M. wrote about this. Gorky: “The Russian language is unusually rich in adverbs that make our speech precise, figurative, and expressive.”

There are many examples in V. Nadyrshin’s text that prove the famous writer is right.

For example, the narrator “reluctantly” (sentence 5) answered the newcomer’s questions. This one word makes it possible for us to understand that the boy who came to the class was not welcome, they considered him a stranger.

An adverb is also capable of conveying a vivid picture of an action (“cleverly dodging”, “stretching out plaintively”), and accurately describing emotions (“they looked gloomily”). This part of speech, without expanding the volume of the message, helps to extract much more information from the read text.

Indeed, the very nature of adverbs contains figurativeness, since they define the qualitative characteristics of actions, states, and properties.

Text for work

(1) I don’t remember what his name was. (2) He lived on Sortirovochnaya and moved to our school temporarily because his mother was admitted to the hospital, and his grandmother lived here, in the third microdistrict. (3) They put the new guy with me, and I didn’t like it: that means when I asked to put me with Kolka

Lykov - you can’t, put him in jail with Sanya Tabukhov - again you can’t, but here, it turns out, you can!

(4) The new guy turned to me several times with some stupid questions: “What’s your name?”, “Where do you live?”... (5) I answered reluctantly, through clenched teeth, and he let go.

(6) And after lessons they took him to beat him. (7) This is called “registration”. (8) They beat not seriously, more for form, as they say, nothing personal, it’s just a tradition. (9) The newcomer, seeing the crowd that surrounded him, rushed to Seryozhka Romanov standing next to him, threw him aside with a blow and, deftly dodging Kolka Lykov, disappeared into the courtyards like the wind. (10) They ran to him, but could not catch up. (And) Seryozhka, sobbing, wiped the blood from his broken lip, and we looked at him gloomily. (12) We decided not to wait for tomorrow, but to settle accounts with the new guy today, no matter what.

(13) - Dimon, you sat with him, you had peace with him! (14) Go to him, invite him to your home - listen to music there or something else... - Kolka asked me. (15) - You’re smart, somehow trick him into going outside.

(16) I was flattered that Kolka turned to me, that he called me smart in front of everyone, that in his opinion only I could complete an assignment that required ingenuity and resourcefulness.

(17) Half an hour later I was already ringing the doorbell of the apartment where the new guy lived.

(18) - What do you want?

(19) - Like what? (20) Look into your eyes! - I said mockingly. (21) - You rushed off like a fleet-footed deer, and I got the full price for you.

(22) -What does that have to do with you?

(23) - What does it have to do with it? - I was surprised. (24) - We’re sitting together, which means we’re friends, so they broke me in for you! (25) My ribs still hurt... (26) Is it possible to walk?

(27) - Come in...

(28) We drank tea, he showed his drawings... (29) He drew quite well. (ZO) Then I looked at my watch and invited him to visit me.

(31) - Come on, just not today!

(32) Everything fell inside me: the guys from our class were already waiting for us in ambush near the unfinished house.

(33) - You see, my brother is sick, and I wanted you to draw him some picture, he loves various fairy tales, magical worlds...

(34) - Well, if that’s the case, then let’s go...

(35) I remember that path down to the centimeter, as if I was walking barefoot on nails. (Zb) The new guy said something to me, and I hastily nodded my head. (37) Edge of an unfinished house. (38) I see broken asphalt, rolls of roofing felt, the edge of a bag where album sheets and paints lie... (39) The hot air, like a file, cuts my chest. (40) I stopped. (41) And the new guy took a few more steps. (42) The bushes moved. (43) That's it! (44) Kolka Lykov slowly came out to meet us and smiled ominously.

(45) The worst thing was next. (46) Fate, apparently, decided to take me to the last circle of my hell. (47) The newcomer suddenly squealed, grabbed a stone and shouted: “Dimon, run!” (48) But, seeing that we were already surrounded and that I could not escape, he attacked Tolka Vlasov, clearing the way for me.

(49) - Dimon, run! (50) What are you worth?

(51) And then I smiled, and the others laughed. (52) Only then did he understand everything and look at me. (bZ) Surprised, incredulous. (54) At that second it seemed to me that the skin burned by this gaze, like a stocking, slipped off my body...

(55)...For many years I have been dreaming of saving someone: I dream of pulling a drowning man out of the water, protecting a girl from hooligans, carrying a wounded man from the battlefield, and I even agree to die performing a heroic act. (56) But no one on my way drowns, no one burns, no one asks me for help. (57) In my pitifully outstretched palms I carry my bleeding heart: I still hope that someday I will see the boy I have betrayed and he will forgive me. (58) Or at least he will understand. (59) Or, at least, he will listen... (60) But he lives somewhere on Sortirovochnaya, he was transferred to our school temporarily, and our life paths still cannot intersect.

(According to V. Nadyrshin)

On June 6, 2011, the President of the Russian Federation signed a Decree “Establish Russian Language Day and celebrate it annually, June 6, the birthday of the great Russian poet, founder of the modern Russian literary language A.S. Pushkin." This was done “in order to preserve, support and develop the Russian language as the national heritage of the peoples of the Russian Federation, a means of international communication and an integral part of the cultural and spiritual heritage of world civilization.”

This date was not chosen by chance. It was on June 6 that the sun of Russian poetry was born, which is the founder of the modern Russian literary language. This day is called Pushkin Day and is celebrated throughout Russia every year. According to the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of 1997 “On the 200th anniversary of the birth of A.S. Pushkin and the establishment of Pushkin Day in Russia,” the birthday of the great poet acquired state status.

Today, Russian is an official UN language along with French, English, Arabic, Spanish and Chinese.

Russian language ranks fourth in terms of prevalence. More than 260 million people use it in their speech.

However, among Russian scholars there are fears that by 2025 the great mighty Russian language will not have such popularity. Experts say that the Portuguese language will be even more in demand than Russian. This phenomenon is associated with the fact that many post-Soviet states today are increasingly raising the issue of recognizing the Russian language as the state language, and, as a rule, this issue is resolved not in favor of the Russian language. In countries such as Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Georgia, Ukraine, the Russian language is actually prohibited, education is conducted entirely in national languages, and the fact that the Russian-speaking population in these countries still makes up a fairly large percentage is not taken into account.

In schools, starting from first grade, Russian is a compulsory subject to study. Moreover, it is taught almost every day up to the eleventh grade. An exam in the Russian language is mandatory in order to obtain a certificate of secondary education and continue studying, if desired.

How can you not be friends with the Russian language? After all, this is our native language, we speak, think, and create in this language. Our wealth lies in language, it is always unique, unique. Not even the best translation can convey to us all the emotions, experiences, suffering, thoughts and feelings that a poet and writer puts into it. In this regard, Hegel said that it is useless to study philosophy in a language other than German.

The Russian language is very beautiful. It carries a semantic load that many other world languages ​​do not carry. Many words that are in our language are not in others.

For example, when greeting, an American will say: “Hi! How are you?” (Hi, how are you?). And everyone should always, like a robot, answer the same thing: “Fine. How are you?” (Fine. How are you?) If you answer something other than “fine,” it will be considered un-American.

It is impossible to imagine such rigid speech patterns among Russians. To the question: “How are you?” you will hear a hundred different answers: “Excellent, normal, nothing, more or less as white as soot, better than anyone, like in a fairy tale, tolerable, cool, great, worst of all, things are going on in the Kremlin - we have business,” etc. .

To the simplest questions, a native Russian speaker will be able to come up with a hundred answers, and not in a deliberate, far-fetched way, but practically “on the fly.” Such variability in answers helps a person think more clearly and master those deep aspects of the language that were hitherto unknown.

The Russian language has undergone significant changes in the course of its development and formation. Today we no longer say “az”, “buki”, we do not use words such as “chelom”, “grad”. Modern researchers are increasingly talking about the abolition of the letter “ё”. But it still remains unclear how one can say “child” instead of “child”, “hedgehog” instead of “hedgehog”. Nevertheless, despite all the historical simplifications, the Russian language remains very multifaceted, rich and powerful.

The modern literary Russian language was finally formed by Alexander Pushkin. He received an excellent education at the Tsarskoye Selo Lyceum, which undoubtedly influenced the quality of his work. He worked in almost all literary genres. If Krylov enriched the fable genre, then Pushkin was able to clearly express his ideas in other genres. The uniqueness of this poet lies in the fact that in his works he was able to depict all historical eras and different countries of the world. We should give him credit for recreating all the events as if he himself lived in them, grew up, as if he himself belonged to this people, their culture. He managed this with ease. He wrote about different social strata; simple, honest people occupied an important place in his works; he skillfully introduced simple colloquial speech into dialogues or monologues. Thanks to all this, he completed the formation of the Russian language, which we today call literary, in which we speak and express our thoughts.

Before Pushkin, there were three styles in the Russian language, and only by adhering to them could anyone write. Alexander Sergeevich, as it were, erased the boundary between them. From now on, creative people could develop their own individual style. Pushkin opened the way to a variety of styles, without forgetting about general norms.

Nikolai Gogol wrote: “At the name of Pushkin, the thought of a Russian national poet immediately dawns on me... In him, as if in a lexicon, lies all the wealth, strength and flexibility of our language. He is more than everyone else, he further expanded his boundaries and showed him more of his entire space.” The words of Ivan Turgenev are also similar, who said the following: “...There is no doubt that he (Pushkin) created our poetic, our literary language and that we and our descendants can only follow the path paved by his genius.”

Russia is a very big country. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that from time immemorial a huge number of nations and nationalities have lived on its territory. Each nationality has its own language, culture, customs, and rituals. Even seemingly one nation - the Russians, depending on the region of residence, has its own linguistic characteristics, from the accent to some words that are peculiar only to them; another will not understand them. But all of us - so different, with different characteristics - are united by one thing - the single rich Russian language.

Following Kuprin’s statement: “Language is the history of a people. Language is the path of civilization and culture. Therefore, studying and preserving the Russian language is not an idle activity because there is nothing to do, but an urgent necessity,” each of us must strive to preserve the language, its development and prosperity.

Many people do not even think that its language is considered the richest. Why Russian? The answer is very simple, the Russian language is the only language in the world in which words can be replenished again and again. Our language and our culture are replenished from many expressions and invented words, because much that was popular with our grandparents passes into our colloquial vocabulary, and our grandchildren will also speak in our phrases.

The Russian language is very difficult, but this does not make it any less attractive. Many writers have said that you can conduct any conversation in Russian: a declaration of love, communication with an enemy, a friendly conversation, because it can convey all feelings and emotions better than any other language. The main thing is to learn to be a literate person; you shouldn’t shout to the whole world that it’s too complicated and that they’ve come up with too many stupid rules.

It should be remembered that the language we speak is a gift from our ancestors and not a learning of the language - this is tantamount to forgetting about our relatives, not accepting their culture, becoming a stranger among our own. It is especially sad to hear this from the small, still growing generation. They don’t yet know that by knowing it, you can discover a new world for yourself. in the Russian language there are many words that are synonymous, so composing poetry will not be difficult for anyone; choosing the right word, its meaning will not change. It’s very fun to learn new words, because a word that means one object or action can be associated by sound with a completely different object.

Once you fall in love with a language, it will open up many opportunities for you, I have verified all this from my personal experience. After reading a large number of books, you no longer remember the rules, and you write sentences freely without making any mistakes. This is what it means - a rich Russian language. So it’s better to take care of your language from a young age.

Essay on reasoning The Russian language is unusually rich, grade 6

We often hear the statement that the Russian language is very rich. But is it? Let's figure it out.

The first thing that shocks any foreigner about the language is the number of synonyms. For example, the word “beautiful” can be occupied by words such as “stunning”, “beautiful”, “good”, “beautiful”, “attractive” or “delightful”. There is hardly a word for which a suitable replacement cannot be found. This, of course, speaks of the splendor and diversity of the Russian language.

Also, unlike, for example, English, in Russian there is no correct construction of interrogative sentences. That is, you can only use intonation when constructing a question. Moving a punctuation mark, using various suffixes and prefixes, changing the order of words can also radically change the meaning of a sentence. The number of means of expression is also striking. When reading any work, you encounter many epithets, personifications and metaphors.

Don't forget that the average person uses only one-fifth of the words in the entire language. This, in turn, also speaks of its vastness and immensity.

In conclusion, I would like to say that such a rich and amazing language must not only be protected, but also be able to use it. To do this, you should use as few foreign words as possible and, of course, read classical literature to expand your vocabulary.

Essay No. 3 The Russian language is unusually (extraordinarily) rich essay-reasoning

What could be more expensive, more valuable and more vulnerable than our native language; the language we speak? Our Russian language. There are a great many countries, peoples, languages, people in the world. But I speak Russian, and I write in it, I think, since I am a Russian person. The Russian language is rightfully considered one of the most beautiful, melodic, sophisticated and musical languages ​​in the world. It is not for nothing that such great writers, poets, musicians as Pushkin, Blok, Tchaikovsky wrote their works in Russian. And what wonderful poems the great poetesses gave us: Akhmatova, Tsvetaeva, Teffi and many others.

Just remember how many great writers wrote in Russian: Lermontov, Bulgakov, Bunin, Solzhenitsyn, Pelevin, Kuprin, Pasternak. But what about Lomonosov with his great theory of three calms? This theory laid the foundation for the division of our language into ranks; divided it into low, medium and high style. The language has become even more diverse and unique because of this. Thanks to its versatility, the Russian language always remains unique, making a person’s speech expressive and eloquent.

The Russian language is our gift, a gift, and the creation of the Almighty. The Russian language is so different, both an intellectual and an ordinary man from the people can speak it, and this will not make the language paler, but on the contrary, it will sparkle with all the forms of its greatness. For me, the most beautiful language in the world is Russian.

More than 145 million people on earth consider Russian their native language. Also, Russian is the official language in Russia and in several countries of the former USSR. Russian is also spoken outside our country; it is taught in foreign universities: in America, Great Britain, France, Germany, Luxembourg. Interethnic agreements are concluded in Russian and international meetings are held. Many students from other countries try to visit our country to hear such a native and beautiful Russian language. As one great man once said, I’ll paraphrase, “there are many languages ​​in the world, all of them were created for different things... But the Russian language was created for life and thought.” I'm not arguing that all languages ​​deserve respect. But most of all, every person should love and respect his native language, the language in which he speaks from birth, in which he thinks and makes decisions.

And how can we not be proud of our native language after this? We should be proud of him. This is our direct duty and honor. I am proud that I speak and write in Russian. I believe that every citizen of our country should value and love their native language; do not pollute it with foreign words, ugly expressions and dialects; incorrect phonetics. Monitor your speech, treat your language with respect and care. Speak clearly, brightly, sophisticatedly, as the Russian language allows us to do. Love your language - it is our great Russian language. The task of us, people who speak Russian, is to preserve and enhance the beauty of the Russian language for future generations. This is our goal for many years and centuries to come.

The Russian language is rich and picturesque. It is powerful and picturesque.

Rarely anyone dares to deny the richness of the Russian language. And the few who decide to enter into a debate on this topic will be mired in wild disappointment, because every even slightly educated inhabitant of the earth knows that the power of the great Russian language is indescribable! How specifically and briefly can we answer the question of where lies this power and strength that so glorifies our native language? In this article we will try to briefly understand how and why this language became the most open, huge and powerful.

Introduction

Before talking about the richness of the Russian language, it is worth remembering the ancient traditions. It is known that back in the 9th century the Slavs already spoke the Old Russian language. Of course, since then it has been subject to many changes and adjustments until it has become modern and generally accepted. It is worth saying that the development of this wonderful language was carried out not only by philologists and linguists, but also by talented people from all over Rus'. They improved it, made it more beautiful and brighter. Thanks to this, he became very interesting abroad. Many foreigners became interested in such a melodious and diverse language and wanted to study it. An interesting fact is that today our native language is one of the five most commonly used languages ​​in the world.

The main factor of formation

What is the richness of the Russian language? The answer to this question is possible only after analyzing the history of the appearance and development of a language, because how can you judge something without knowing where it came from? If it were not for Christianity, then we can say with almost absolute certainty that the Russian language would definitely not be the way we know it today. It is worth understanding that Ukrainian, Belarusian and Russian languages ​​are very similar to each other. Perhaps, if it were not for the influence of religion, then all people would speak something common between these three languages, and then the ethnic picture of the world would have undergone strong changes.

Activities of Peter I

The peak of language development occurred in the 17th-18th centuries, and a great deal of credit for this belongs to Peter I. The turning point occurred in the 17th century, because it was then that the emperor actively reformed all areas of the state structure. Of course, all these changes could not ignore the most important thing - culture and language. He was able to introduce a civil script, which supplanted the Kirillov half-rut. He also obliged everyone to use new terminology, which was borrowed from European countries. It is worth noting here that all these innovations mostly related to military affairs. At this time, such words as guardhouse, password and corporal appeared in the Russian language. Peter I invested a significant amount of his funds to open printing houses. They published fiction books, as well as special political literature. All this made it possible to capture in writing the main values ​​and cultural monuments of that time.

Mikhail Lomonosov

We must not forget about another very important person who made a significant contribution to the development of the language. We are talking about Mikhail Lomonosov. He wrote his works in correct Russian and tried to adhere to the rules of grammar as much as possible. After some time, these rules were officially introduced into the language, and what’s most interesting is that we still use many of them! The contribution of Mikhail Lomonosov is very much underestimated, but for the most part it was only thanks to him that such a branch of science as grammar appeared, which led to the publication of the first academic dictionary. With his own money, he published “Russian Grammar,” which to this day is one of the greatest assets of Russian culture. It was from this moment that the public recognition of the Russian language as great and powerful began. They became interested in it abroad and began to study and improve it. After the book was published, grammar textbooks for children were written and widely introduced into the education program. It was Mikhail Vasilyevich who divided the texts into styles, highlighting artistic, business and scientific.

The process of transforming the Russian language continues, and it is unlikely to ever end. New knowledge, new technology and new areas of science regularly emerge that require special vocabulary. Our language borrows a lot of words from abroad, but this does not prevent it from remaining just as popular, vibrant and multifaceted.

The power of language

Is it possible to definitely write what the richness of the Russian language is? It can be noted that today it is one of the most developed, popular and processed languages ​​in the whole world, which has a huge book and written base. But what is the richness of the Russian language, how does it differ from others, what lexical and grammatical features make it the best? It is worth noting that when one begins to consider the significance and richness of a language, the first thing researchers look at is the dictionary. If it is full of words that convey different things in an accessible, understandable and eloquent language, and also consists of letters that are pleasant and convenient to pronounce, then we can say that the language is rich enough. K. Paustovsky has said more than once that in the Russian language alone, there are a huge variety of different designations to denote ordinary natural phenomena, such as rain, wind, lakes, sun, sky, grass, etc. The lexical richness of native speech is most clearly reflected in various dictionaries. V. Dal included more than 200 thousand words in his “Dictionary of the Living Great Russian Language”.

Semantic richness

The richness and expressiveness of the Russian language largely depend on the meaning that words carry. At this point, our native language is also not inferior, because we have many synonyms, homonyms and simply meaningful words. We remember that synonyms are words that have a similar meaning. There are a lot of such words in the Russian language, which has more than once helped out unlucky poets who went crazy in search of a new rhyme: you just have to read the dictionary more carefully. It is important to understand that synonyms do not just call the same thing differently, they clarify only a certain property of an object, helping to describe something more deeply and significantly. Let's give a small example using the word "famous". It can easily be replaced by units such as “outstanding,” “great,” “wonderful,” and “famous.” Moreover, each adjective reveals a word in a special subtext. The adjective “great” characterizes something objectively, the word “outstanding” gives a comparative assessment, “famous” means a qualitative characteristic, and “wonderful” allows us to convey our attitude towards something.

Synonyms are an important and integral part of speech, because they allow you to figuratively diversify the language and avoid boring repetitions. The most interesting thing is that sometimes synonyms are used, which in their direct meaning may have nothing to do with the subject in question. For example, we say the word “many,” but in different contexts it can be replaced by such synonyms as darkness, abyss, abyss, ocean, swarm, etc. This is just one example, but how clearly it demonstrates the diversity of the Russian language.

Expression

In order to understand the richness of the Russian language, you need to remember such an important concept as expression, which allows you to describe emotions. There are positive and negative expressions. The first type includes words such as beautiful, luxurious, bold, charming and others. The second type includes words such as sloppy, absent-minded, chatterbox, etc. Our native language is incredibly rich in emotionally charged words that allow us to express emotions such as affection, anger, love, anger, etc., using a number of units, each of which has a unique meaning. Mikhail Lomonosov also emphasized this, saying that only two languages ​​have a sufficient number of affectionate and derogatory words: Russian and Italian.

Phraseology

And yet the question of what constitutes the richness of the Russian language has not yet been fully resolved. Briefly, we can say that the richness of a language is predetermined by the richness of its individual units. We must not forget about phraseology, which is an important part of speech. Established expressions come from historical documents, past events and even from the present experience of the people. The statements of ordinary people most vividly and subtly convey different aspects of life. It is not for nothing that scientists collect folk wisdom bit by bit, because ethnicity is the best creator and keeper of life knowledge. Some scientists even compare a folk community to a philosopher who, while living life, learns valuable lessons from it. You can get acquainted with extensive Russian phraseology using the “Phraseological Dictionary of the Russian Language” edited by A. Molotov.

Enrichment with foreign words

Examples of the richness of the Russian language are impossible without words that came to us from abroad. They improve our language. It is worth saying that only the Russian language has such a huge number of prefixes and suffixes that allow you to create new words. Philologists rarely translate foreign words by transliteration - only if necessary. In all other cases, new unique words are born.

Grammar

What is the wealth of the Russian language if not in grammar? This is one of the most important components of speech. Our grammar is distinguished not only by its flexibility, but also by its expressiveness. Learning this language for foreigners is not an easy task. No matter how they talk about the complexity of other languages, Russian, with all its diversity, remains one of the most difficult. For example, we can consider the category of type, which indicates the way the action occurs. It is somewhat more complex than the category of time, because it allows you to characterize the action in different ways. For example, the verb “to do” can sound like “to do”, “to finish”, “to complete”, etc. Almost no other language in the world has such a variety of word forms.

Statements about the richness of the Russian language

We have covered many aspects of our speech. So, what is the richness of the Russian language? Let's briefly try to answer this question in the words of famous people. And Turgenev bequeathed: “Take care of the language, our beautiful Russian language, this treasure and heritage passed on by our predecessors.” Nikolai Gogol put it very beautifully when he wrote: “You marvel at the preciousness of our language: every sound is a gift, everything is grainy, large, like the pearl itself, and, truly, another name is even more precious than the thing itself.” made an interesting remark: “How beautiful the Russian language is! All the advantages of German without its terrible rudeness.”

Summing up the results of the article devoted to the Russian language, I would like to say that it is rightfully considered one of the richest, richest and most luxurious languages, but at the same time it is quite complex. Anyone who is lucky enough to be born and speak this language does not even realize the gift that he has received. What is the richness of the Russian language? The answer is simple: in our history and people, who created this invincible language.

One German translator boasted that he knew the Russian language perfectly and could translate any phrase.
Well, they offered to translate it into German: “Mowed with a scythe with a scythe” ...

zаshtsheeshtshaуоуshtsheеkhsуа.
Not a single Englishman or American can pronounce this word...

Foreigners will never understand how it is possible to “clean a turnip for two horseradishes,” or “knock a pumpkin for two peppers.”

At the philology department there is a lecture on linguistics, the teacher selflessly broadcasts:
- There are languages ​​in which negation and affirmation, placed side by side, mean negation, and there are languages ​​in which the same combination means affirmation. But remember that there is no language in which a double statement means a negative!
Student's voice from the back desk: - Well, yes, of course!

Philologist:
Today our conversation will focus on difficult cases in the Russian language.
He stops, thinks, mutters under his breath: wouldn’t it be more correct to talk about difficult cases of the Russian language???

Depending on the intonation, one swear word from auto mechanic Petrov can mean up to 50 different parts and devices.

An example from the field of achievements of the Russian language is a meaningful sentence in which five indefinite verbs appear in a row:
Time to get ready, get up, go buy a drink!

An exclusively Russian phrase: “Yes, no”

oversalted the borscht = overdid it with salt.

Only a Russian person will understand the true meaning of the set of letters: PSHLNHPDRS

Roskomnadzor has compiled a list of words prohibited in the media, but cannot publish them.

“I’m not Russian, but I know the Russian language quite well. An acquaintance, also not Russian, calls and asks:
- “Lenka, I have a question for you, what does the word incomparable mean?”
- "Well, it means the nicest, the best, or something like that."
- “It’s strange, I asked the Russians, they said that the word incomparable means o@uenny.”

During the exam, the professor asks the student: - What is a synonym?
- A synonym is a word that we write instead of one whose spelling we do not know.

Even if you know fifteen foreign languages, you still need Russian.
You never know: you'll fall or drop something heavy on your leg.

This Russian language is strange! A pie is singular, and half a pie is plural.
Look: “Why do I need YOUR pie?” or “Why do I need YOUR half pie?

Oddities of the Russian language: a bachelorette party is a women's party, and a womanizer is a loving man.

“Everyone has known this for a long time,” and “it’s no secret” that these phrases usually begin the presentation of complete nonsense.

Husband and wife quarreled, swearing, shouting.
She tells him sharply:
- And now it’s quiet!
He asks, stunned:
- What verse?
- A verse is a verb! He sat down and was quiet, you idiot!..

There is a table in front of us. There is a glass and a fork on the table. What are they doing? The glass is standing, but the fork is lying down.
If we stick a fork into the tabletop, the fork will stand.
That is, vertical objects stand and horizontal objects lie?
Add a plate and a frying pan to the table.
They seem to be horizontal, but they stand on the table.
Now put the plate in the frying pan. There it lies, but it was on the table.
Maybe there are items ready for use?
No, the fork was ready when it was lying there.
Now the cat climbs onto the table.
She can stand, sit and lie down.
If in terms of standing and lying down it somehow fits into the “vertical-horizontal” logic, then sitting is a new property. She sits on her butt.
Now a bird has landed on the table.
She sits on the table, but sits on her legs, not on her butt. Although it seems like it should be standing. But she cannot stand at all.
But if we kill the poor bird and make a stuffed animal, it will stand on the table.
It may seem that sitting is an attribute of a living thing, but the boot also sits on the foot, although it is not alive and does not have a butt.
So, go and understand what is standing, what is lying down, and what is sitting.
And we are also surprised that foreigners consider our language difficult and compare it with Chinese.
