HOW DID RUSSIAN BECOME A COSMIC LANGUAGE?
English has long been the most widely spoken language in the world. But because of the former and current successes of the USSR and Russia in space, in orbital space, it is forced to compete with the Russian and even inferior to him in influence. And there is logic in this.
On April 12, 1951, Soviet cosmonaut Юрий Гагарин (Yuri Gagarin) became the first man in space. This event was the greatest achievement of all mankind. Russians are very proud of this and are offended when someone says that the first man in space was Neil Armstrong, who in 1969, many years after Gagarin, was the first to land on the moon.
Our Yura, during the launch of the first manned spacecraft “Восток”, uttered the phrase "ПОЕХАЛИ!", which became a symbol of the space age of human development.
Since 2011, the “Союз” spacecraft has been the only means of delivering people from the surface of the planet to its orbit, it would be logical for the crew to be able to independently maintain communication with the Mission Control Center (MCC) in the city of Korolev, if such a need arises.
In addition, training for both Russians and foreigners first takes place at the NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, and then at the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center in Star City in the Moscow region. Each group must keep in touch with the Russian and American MCC, which jointly provide missile guidance, navigation and control.
Therefore, the Russian language is necessary for everyone who travels to the ISS and back on the ship, even as a passenger, because they must be ready to communicate with our MCC or take control of the Soyuz spacecraft in an urgent situation.
So if you are planning to fly into space, start learning Russian right now!
Here are a few words:
Восток – [ vostok ] – East
Союз – [ soyuz ] – Union
Космос – [ kosmos ] – Space
Космонавт – [ kosmonavt ] – Astronaut
Орбита – [ orbita ] – Orbit
Звезда – [ zvezda ] – Star
Планета – [ planeta

If I had such a ticket, I would go on a trip with my mom as a friend, find out what she likes to do most of all and would definitely ask "what are you dreaming about?". And then, in the present, fulfilled her dream (if she hasn't already done it herself).
P.S. I couldn't find a suitable photo, so I decided to publish my children's drawing

The native language in the life of every person plays an important role in life, allowing you to communicate with others, get an education and preserve the culture of your people. Actually, for every nation, the native language is a part of culture. Despite the value of native languages for each culture, today they are rapidly disappearing from the face of the Earth, turning into "dead". This is also why we need holidays such as Language Days.
Родной язык в жизни каждого человека играет важную роль, позволяя общаться с окружающими, получать образование и сохранять культуру своего народа. На самом деле, для каждого народа родной язык - это часть культуры. Несмотря на ценность родных языков для каждой культуры, сегодня они стремительно исчезают с лица Земли, превращаясь в "мертвые". Именно поэтому нам нужны такие праздники, как День Языков.

How To Sound Like a Native Russian Speaker?
First of all, I would like to say that there is only one Russian language and one dialect. In different regions of Russia and post-Soviet countries you can meet different accents and slang, but in general we cannot divide the Russian language into different types, like English (British, Australian, American, etc.).
However, how can you sound like a native Russian speaker?
1. Intonation
Intonation in Russian is important. The same sentence, but with different intonation, may have different meanings. With the help of intonation, Russians add emotions to their speech. If we emphasize one word with intonation, we will get different questions or sentences.
2. Articulation
For many foreigners, it’s difficult to speak Russian, because their facial muscles, mouth and tongue are not used to pronouncing certain sounds. Very often my students clench their teeth and don’t open their mouths when pronouncing vowels. In order to sound like a native, read and repeat tongue twisters. It will help your muscles adapt to the new language.
3. Listening
Listen to music and read lyrics. Try to imitate the pronunciation and repeat after the performer. It will also be useful to listen to audiobooks and follow the text. Try to catch the intonation, sounds, and if you are watching a clip or an interview, watch the articulation.
4. Informal phrases
Practice your Russian with native speakers, find friends for language exchange. You will see that we often use the same informal phrases when we ask “How are you,” “How was your day,” “What are you going to do” and so on. Of course, we don't always speak as it’s written in Tolstoy's novels or in our textbooks. Communicating with a native speaker will help you expand your vocabulary and add more colloquial phrases.
If you have any other tips and recommendations on how to speak like a native speaker – leave a comment.

Word Order In Russian Sentences
When you speak with native Russian speakers, you might notice that their sentences are not always clear, and the words are out of place. It confuses you, doesn't it? Why is this happening?
In Russian, the word order is considered free. It means that there is no strictly fixed place for this or that word in the sentence. For example, in the sentence "Мария вчера внимательно читала книгу" (Maria read the book carefully yesterday) 120 variants are possible, depending on the permutation of words.
There is a direct and reverse word order. The direct order exists in many Germanic, Romance and Turkic languages. The reverse word order is a violation of the traditional sequence of words in a sentence.
Direct word order: Я читаю книгу. (I read book)
Reverse word order: Я книгу читаю. (I book read)
In Russian, both word orders are correct. Russian is extremely flexible when it comes to word order.
However, sometimes the word order can be useful to express emotion or emphasis. Here is a statement of fact:
У сестры есть кошка. (My sister has a cat.)
But if I asked you how your sister’s dog is doing, you might want to emphasize, “No, she has a cat!” So to add emphasis you can reply with a different word order:
Кошка есть у сестры. (The cat is what my sister has!)
Russians don't always speak emotionally or use gestures, like Italians or Spaniards, but with the help of word order they can express different thoughts, emotions and even worry.
