    And me. I've seen it used a bit, but I'm not sure on it's exact usage.

    Well

    1) One meaning is "grass-snake"

    2) It can also be a shortened form of уже

    3) sure; really

    ~уж он умрёт, если его обезглавят. - He is sure to die if he is decapitated.

    ~это уж очень дорого. - This is really too expensive.

    Да уж, Ладно уж.



    В красавиц он уж не влюблялся
    А волочился как нибудь...

    ...Уж небо осенью дышало
    Уж реже солнышко блистало...

    ...Стоял ноябрь уж у двора.

    You say you're not a noob yet you dont even give the correct difinition for a simple word.

    Look in any dictionary and Already will be the first word you see for, Уже but ur too noob u didnt even put that at all. Oh yea, and your story was f*cking retarded too.

    For really u could just say слишком or even же, but wtf... U really did teach urself russian didnt u. Russian for n00bz.
    Вот это да, я так люблю себя. И сегодня я люблю себя, ещё больше чем вчера, а завтра я буду любить себя to ещё больше чем сегодня. Тем что происходит,я вполне доволен!

    I think the cheese dun slid off your cracker, boy! You must be OUTSIDE yo MIND!

    ...First of all, this sentence, "Look in any dictionary and Already will be the first word you see for, Уже but ur too noob u didnt even put that at all."...I don't know what point you were trying to make....

    Plus, most of those definitions I DID get from a dictionary.

    For really u could just say слишком or even же, but wtf... U really did teach urself russian didnt u. Russian for n00bz.
    He wasn't asking for the definition of слишком or же now was he? Ummm...NO!! He wasn't. He wanted уж.

    Secondly, the story IS retarted...I didn't write it to be serious....obviously, you can't tell the difference...

    A third thing...WOW ...little things seems to make you VERY upset. Perhaps you're bipolar? In that case, maybe you should get some help. *hands dogboy some Prozac* I know a good doctor. His name is Dr. YOU ARE INSANE DUDE!!!!

    It's a good thing your opinion means jack to me, otherwise [sarcasm] I would be really hurt. [/sarcasm]

    lmao

    Anyhoo...my Shakira is done, and I have a groove to get on.

    So if he asked what уж means then why dont u give him a good explanation instead of crappy ones he'd never use. Like Ты уже меня достал. You've pissed me off already. Instead of stupid sentences nobody would say anyways. ФОБЛЯ!

    Man if we were in russia i would have assassinated you so long ago.

    Why wouldn't he use those? Plus, I didn't write those. The people that wrote the dictionary did. And also, the point is not the sentence. The point is to show them HOW to use the word, so they can make sentences of their own.

    If they piss you off so much, then why don't you give him some good ones?

    Who'd of though that a simple post would turn into a murder threat? lol..Well if you can find me, go right ahead and kill me.

    Ps. Dogboy, I underestimated you when I said you were insane...you are WAY worse.

    Firstly: thank you guys for helping me. I’ve been through a bad time trying to make myself comfortable with the use of У in sentences where it means possession and also the use of уж.

    Now, even in my craziest though I couldn’t imagine a flame war in a Russian language forum. Jesus, people fights for any reason

    Go take a passion fruit juice!

    I'm glad you found it helpful. Because I did such a BAD job of explaining it, and my examples were soooooo horrible.

    Какая разница, умереть богатым или бедным?

    Какой толк от богатства если ты не счастлив.

    Commonly found in allegiance with "1337$1'331<," or "leetspeak," the accepted language of computer gaming geeks which takes a ludicrous amount of time to type.
