The V Girl by Mya Robarts. I’ve wanted to read this book for a long time after reading the description and all the amazing reviews on Goodreads but it was not at all what I had expected. It was very uncomfortable to read at times…
Witam serdecznie i zapraszam Was na kolejny krótki film w którym będę mówić po polsku. Nie tak dawno temu skończyłam czytać kolejny tom szósty z serii o Harrym Potterze po polsku (Harry Potter i Książę Półkrwi), i chciałabym Wam trochę opowiedzieć o samej książce, o tym, jak długo ją czytałam, co mi się w niej podobało, no i oczywiście opowiem Wam też o ciekawostkach językowych, które w niej znalazłam, i które były dla mnie jako dla Rosjanki bardzo interesujące.

Hi friends! Today I want to talk to you about one of the fears that I have, and I think, this is one that probably any non-Native speaker normally has from time to time when he or she is starting to speak a foreign language. This is going to be a very short video in 3 languages – English, Spanish and Polish – where I’ll try to explain the problem.
Just finished The Tall Stanger by D. E. Stevenson (in English). 🇬🇧 ❤️ I really enjoyed this novel. It was well written, fast paced and very romantic! 🤗
I liked the plot. But the most important thing is the language of the book. The richest English language, which is rarely seen today!
Some interesting phrases from this book:
🇬🇧 (En) 👉👉👉 🇷🇺 (Ru)
🔹 come weal come woe = в горе и в радости;
🔹 making a mountain out of a molehill = делать из мухи слона (“You think I’m making a mountain out of a molehill?”)
🔹 be someone’s pigeon = be someone’s concern (“… declaring that it was her pigeon…” = “… это было ее дело”)
🔹 straight as a die = прямой, честный, такой не подведет (… Ned was the soul of honour – straight as a die!)

Today I’m going to read you in Russian the classic Russian short story – Peter the First and the Peasant by Leo Tolstoy. This story is now in the Public Domain.
I’ve added the English transliteration and Russian subtitles to the video. I hope this will help Russian language learners feel the rhythm, stress and intonation of this beautiful language, and also to practice pronunciation. Read with me and sound like a native Russian speaker!
Why to Learn Spanish? Here are my 7 reasons why I’m learning Spanish and why it’s so important for me (native Russian speaker) to know this language as much as possible.
