Berlín: pasado y reflexión

...
Какие виды кругом — каждое окно в доме было рамой своей особенной картины! С одной стороны Волга с крутыми берегами и Заволжьем; с другой — широкие поля, обработанные и пустые, овраги, и все это замыкалось далью синевших гор. С третьей стороны видны села, деревни и часть города. Воздух свежий, прохладный, от которого, как от летнего купанья, пробегает по телу дрожь бодрости. Дом весь был окружен этими видами, этим воздухом, да полями, да садом. Сад обширный около обоих домов, содержавшийся в порядке, с темными аллеями, беседкой и скамьями. Чем далее от домов, тем сад был запущеннее.

Подле огромного развесистого вяза, с сгнившей скамьей, толпились вишни и яблони: там рябина; там шла кучка лип, хотела было образовать аллею, да вдруг ушла в лес и братски перепуталась с ельником, березняком. И вдруг все кончалось обрывом, поросшим кустами, идущими почти на полверсты берегом до Волги. Подле сада, ближе к дому, лежали огороды. Там капуста, репа, морковь, петрушка. огурцы, потом громадные тыквы, а в парнике арбузы и дыни. Подсолнечники и мак, в этой массе зелени, делали яркие, бросавшиеся в глаза, пятна; около тычинок вились турецкие бобы.

Нескучные истории - Not boring stories

Отрывок из романа "Обрыв" Ивана Александровича Гончарова

In this podcast, we talk about the following ten words:
Souvenir: Derived from the French word "souvenir," meaning "to remember," this word entered English in the late 18th century. It refers to an object or memento that serves as a reminder of a person, place, or event.

Rendezvous: Originating from the French phrase "rendez-vous," which means "meeting" or "appointment," this word entered English in the 16th century. 

Cuisine: Borrowed directly from French, "cuisine" refers to a style or method of cooking, often associated with a particular culture or region. It encompasses the preparation and presentation of food.

Fiancé/Fiancée: These terms come from the French words "fiancé" (masculine) and "fiancée" (feminine), both meaning "engaged." They are used to describe a person who is engaged to be married.

Déjà vu: This widely recognized phrase comes from French, where it literally means "already seen." It refers to the feeling or sensation that one has experienced the present situation before, even though it is new.

Encore: Borrowed from French, "encore" means "again" or "once more." It is often used in the context of a performance to request an additional or repeated act from the performer.

Lingerie: Derived from the French word "lingerie," this term refers to women's underwear and intimate apparel. It encompasses a range of garments, including bras, panties, nightgowns, and robes.

Décor: Also borrowed from French, "décor" denotes the overall style, arrangement, and aesthetics of a space or setting. It refers to the decorative elements used to enhance the ambiance or atmosphere.

Croissant: This word, of French origin, describes a flaky and crescent-shaped pastry. It has become popular worldwide and is often enjoyed as a breakfast or snack item.

Ballet: Originating from French, "ballet" refers to a highly expressive and intricate form of dance. It combines precise movements, graceful gestures, and storytelling to create a visual spectacle.
