Dream Travels

Figure emblématique de la lutte sociale et longtemps personnalité préférée des Français, ce prêtre catholique, mort en 2007 à 94 ans, est accusé par 24 femmes de propos et gestes déplacés à caractère sexuel, d’attouchements et d’agressions, certaines s’apparentant à des viols.

Affaire Abbé Pierre : la chute d’une icône

Three Russian tongue twisters specifically designed to make your pronunciation clearer! 
Try repeating after me. First time I’m reading slowly, second time closer to real speech speed.

собирАла маргарИта маргарИтки на горЕ, растерЯла маргарИта маргарИтки во дворЕ. (р,г)

из кУзова в кУзов шла перегрУзка арбУзов. в грозУ в грязИ от грУза арбУзов развалИлся кУзов. (з,в)

в шалашЕ шуршИт шелкАми жЁлтый дЕрвиш из алжИра и, жонглИруя ножАми, штУку кУшает инжИра. (ш,ж)

These tongue twisters focus on various Russian sounds. Try to articulate them as clearly as possible. Let's focus on accuracy rather than speed. Good luck!

If you want to say HELLO, it depends on the time of day.
If it's morning, it's better to say ДОБРОГО РАНКУ.
If it's afternoon, it's ДОБРИЙ ДЕНЬ
If it is evening - then ДОБРИЙ ВЕЧІР or ДОБРОГО ВЕЧОРА
If it's night -- ДОБРОЇ НОЧІ
If you want to wish someone good night, you can use the previous phrase or ДОБРАНІЧ
It is also possible to say ВІТАЮ, but this word has two meanings: HELLO or Congratulations
These are formal greetings.
However, if you're talking to a friend, it's okay to say ПРИВІТ.

So how to say goodbye or bye? 
Goodbye is до побачення. By the way, побачення means “a date” and до in this context means “till”, but this phrase still means “goodbye”.
If you want to say “see you”, you can say “до зустрічі”. 
These are kind of formal ones.
And if you are talking to a friend and want to say “bye”, you can say:
– па-па (bye bye)
– бувай (bye)
So we can say it like “Як справи”.
“Як ти” – which is informal.

And what should we answer? 
We can say: 
Добре – which means good.
Дуже добре – very good 
Нормально – normal
Не дуже – not much. As I have said before, дуже – means very. So we literally say “not very”.
Чудово – great
Погано – bad
It is also possible to say “непогано” which means “not bad”
