How Russian Are You?

Oh you SAY you're Russian, but how Russian are you really?

Unfortunately, I am only a tepid 83% Russian!

"While you're a proud Russian, at home in any Moscow kitchen, you're still able to interact normally with foreigners. Most of the time."

"You are 45% Russian!
45%

It may be that you've been in emigration for too long. Time to watch some old Victory Day parades on video and remember your roots."

Я честно старалась отвечать, как если бы я жила в России. Меня могло подвести то, что я не люблю пить водку.

Вообще, я думаю что тест сатирический Я тоже ответила как если бы я жила в России... но конечно я там жила так давно, чтобы я не знаю точно, как жизнь там есть сейчас ))

That was fun! But since I've never even visited Russia then I think there's something wonky about that quiz, lol! Lmao at the comments too! Even Russians aren't Russians???? LOL!

It is a satirical quiz, LOL - ie, not meant to be taken too seriously. That's why I said "just for fun."

You are 36% Russian!

Can the guys from GoToQuiz find Russia on the map?

39% for sincere answers. Interesting that among answers almost always at least one that I can say "It is OK for me." Normally in quizes I usually say "What the heck! No one option is true nor even reasonable."

That Kate knows the subject but her knowledge is a bit outdated. She mentioned Vladimir among the possible capitals of Russia... Way outdated.

You are 28% Russian!
Who are you kidding? Just because you took a summer language course in Petersburg doesn't make you a Russian.

Surprising enough for a Russian national...

You are 24% Russian!

What's a pity!

Hahaha - probably not

I wanted to like your post but "likes" are not working now, it appears)))

I think the test was written by someone who wants to be Russian, but isn't? So he designed a test specifically to make real Russians fail it! That is my theory anyway.

I think it is Russian "клюква" test.

I think so! Very red клюква and full of silly stereotypes. Of course no one gets 100%, because Russian stereotypes are simply not accurate!

There are some клюква and there are some internal funs "for Russians only". Author ("Kate") knows Russian mentality and reality well but didn't defined well the target audience of the quiz so there is much of eclecticism.

Yeah, the question about Gorbachev was one not all westerners would get. I think the truly "Russian" answer was the one which involved a lot of cussing - judging from what many Russians have personally told me about the "architect of perestroika"

I took the test. The answer is 42. As if I didn't know
