    Какая разница, умереть богатым или бедным?

    Какой толк от богатства если ты не счастлив.

    Approximate pronuciations.
    Letters in CAPS are stressed.

    Leave me alone
    Оставьте меня в покое
    Pronouced like : ostAvte menYA v pakOe

    Thanks
    Спасибо
    Pronouced like : spasEEbo
    Sounds similar to the word "placeobo" except replace the "pl" with "sp"

    I love you
    Я тебя люблю
    Pronouced like : Ya tebYA lyublYU

    Please
    пожалуйста

    This word can also be used to say "Your Welcome"

    I think "Будь всё прОклято!" means something like "all be damned" or "damn everthing". Apparently in Russian it has very strong meaning. Don't use these words in casual conversation.

    Maybe they use it in secret or something, but I've never heard Russians use the term "будь все проклято". It sounds almost like something out of a book. It's true that that's a more literal translation of it, but given that Americans say "Goddammit" really often whenever something pisses them off, I think we could pick a different translation. What do Russians say when they accidentally smack themselves with a hammer?

    Depends if it's a "Get lost!" leave me alone, or a "*sniff* I just want to be alone..." leave me alone.

    Мой сын приехал из поездки с моим братом и спрашивал, что означают "Японский бог!", "Ёлки-палки!", всё время употребляемые моим братом.
    А вообще, по-моему, самое распространённое было "Твою мать!"

    Wait a minute, so if you smack your thumb with a hammer, you can yell out "твою мать"? Which мать would be the one in question, your mother, or the hammer's?

    OK that's it! I've had enough of you two, with your little note passing in class and your cute little giggling like school girls. You don't fool me, I know what's going on here. You think you are too good for the rest of the class don't you? You and your pathetic attempt at bathroom humour. Well the jig is up for you two fellows, you won't be able to get away with this while I'm around and now you can just share with the rest of us your sordid little secret now can't you? Hmm?

    Whatever it is it can never be as good as the standard Oh bugger!

    Mate, no need to learn this, it is taboo. In most cases useing these words incorrectly is rude, stupied, agressive, harmful, offensive and even dangerous to your health and your life. You can watch russian tv, read books and newspapers for years and you'll never meet words of this vocabulary. If you have a specific question about something you are welcome, maybe I can answer it, but I'm not going to teach мат to anybody. Notice the most russians here are not interesting how to use properly "sh@g"-"f@#k", becouse it's generally useless information to communicate with people.

    So I'm among least russians here :) It's not so useless, at least I want to understand when somebody uses it. And it helps a lot to express your emotions, like in that case with a hummer. What else would you say? :)
    It reminds me a joke:

    Два солдата что-то паяли в детском саду, один паял, а второй держал стремянку (stepladder). После этого дети стали ругаться матом. Воспитатель пожаловалась их командиру. Командир на них:
    - Вы что, матом ругались при детях!?
    - Никак нет! Даже когда рядовой Иванов стал капать припоем мне на голову, я сказал "Рядовой Иванов, неужели Вы не видете что вашему боевому товарищу на голову капает раскалённый припой?".

    I'm not telling that it's good to use foul language all the time. But I can't say it's no use.

    Quite right. A well-chosen and correctly-used expletive can be hilarious and/ or highly ingratiating, depending on the context and the company you are in, in exactly the same way slipping a really specific cultural reference into a conversation can.

    Of course, if you get it wrong it can blow up right in your face
