As your professor approaches the podium, he starts up the projector and begins showing slides of what appears to be animals from Australia. You are thoroughly confused now.

Learn Russian with RussianPod101.com. You are in Russia on business, but you have a close family friend that you are staying with. Your friend’s grandmother is also staying with him and you can remember summer days in which she would watch you and your friend splash in the Russian rivers. While you are helping set the table for dinner, your friend’s grandmother is finishing up preparing the meal in the kitchen. You tell his grandmother in Russian, “Let me move my notebook off of the counter to give you some room.” She seems confused by your statement. You explain that your notebook is a laptop computer. She looks slightly annoyed and replies in Russian, (almost too quickly for you to catch everything she’s saying), “You boys now - everything is slang. Why can’t you just call things what they really are? I remember…” You tune her out because you know her tirade about the changes of the Russian language could go on for several minutes and you’ve heard it all before. When you finally start listening again, you hear her say in Russian, “Are you listening to me? I mean, why did you learn Russian anyway? People shouldn’t learn this language if they are going to butcher it.” She sees the look on your face telling her that she’s being silly but you love her anyway. Anyone ready for a big helping of Russian history?
