Just Wanted To Let You Know That English Speaking People Aren’t The Only People Who Have Problems With

I can't express enough how much I love this show. Here's another great bit.

Just a fun fact #2

In old Russian times, people used to say "спаси тебя бог" (spasi teb'a bokh), which literally means "God save you". But then, someone took the first and the last word from that sentence and put them together. This is how "спасибо" (spasibo) was created back in 17th century, and Russians use it as "thank you" nowadays.

Here's a comp of completely random pictures in Russian that make me giggle: pt 3

I'm sorry for my excitement when you said Olezhka was an abuser. I though abuser meant he worked somewhere in IT.

When you listen to an entire song in your target language and one thing makes sense:

The LITTLE BIG moment that had me shook

LITTLE BIG music videos are unique and interesting to Russians not only because of all this crazy stuff they always come up with, but also because these guys invite tons of Russian YouTubers to every music video. I might even write a list of people who have been invited so far, if Russian YouTube is interesting to you.

But my favorite cameo happened in their “I’M OK” music video. 

You see, the character on the left is Arseniy Popov. He’s one of the actors in Russian TV show “Improvisation” (pretty much the Russian version of “Whose line is it anyway?”). The thing is, there is an inside joke in the show about Arseniy being homosexual.

In the LITTLE BIG's music video Arseniy Popov not only appeared as the first TV celebrity, but the band kept the inside joke that they were clearly aware of. 

As a big fan of both “Improvisation” and LITTLE BIG, I was absolutely thrilled. 

Hey guys. Just wanted to say that I'm not going to post for some time. I don't know how long it will last, but I won't be here until summer for sure.

My heart goes out to Ukraine. If you want to help, please donate to the military charities that I posted down below.

Stay safe. And let's hope peace will come again soon.

Hey, thank you so much for the feedback on my previous post! I’m so glad you liked it! This time, I translated a scene from ‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire’. Random facts: English: gills + weed = gillyweed Russian: жабры (plur., gills) + водоросли (plur., seaweed) = жабросли In Russian, instead of calling You-Know-Who ‘Voldemort’, all the characters in the HP universe call him Волан-де-морт (Volan-de-mort). Yeah, I don’t get it either. Snape’s ‘don’t lie to me’ line has been a huge meme among Russians for years now. Russian Harry Potter YTP was the thing that started it. What movie scene should I translate next? Do you have any suggestions?
