Who will you lead? What do Russians teach American friends to?
We know what habits we learn from Americans, but what do they learn from us?
Edition Classy bro gathered reviews of Americans who have Russian friends.
1. You become a professional in nodding and smiles when everyone speaks fluent Russian, and you do not understand a word.
2. You know how to spell your name in Cyrillic.
3. Russian customs have become a part of your life, and now, coming to your friend's birthday party, you bring flowers for his mother. Because she gave him life, which means she deserved thanks.
4. You also share some Russian superstitions. For example, you do not whistle in the house, because the Russians believe that because of this you will not have money.
5. Have you tried several dishes that you never expected to try. For example, “Herring under a fur coat”, which cannot be understood in any other country, except Russia. And you, of course, have a favorite dish of Russian cuisine. This is not “Herring under a fur coat”, but perhaps borsch or dumplings.
6. You have developed a positive attitude towards vodka, because the Russians use it on holidays and just for a tasty lunch, and you have to support the company, otherwise they may be offended.
7. You know who Cheburashka is.
8. You ate a chocolate with a picture of a huge baby on the cover.
9. You were happy that the grandmother of one of your Russian friends cooked pancakes.
10. You can say “Bye!” in Russian, but “Hello!” you can't - most Americans can't pronounce the [health] sound combination.
11. Therefore, you use a simpler word for greeting - “Hello!” But the grandparents of your friends are offended by this - in Russia it is not customary to be so familiar with them.
12. You know that Santa Claus (Russian Santa Claus) has a granddaughter. And she is very cute.
13. You, most likely, love red and black caviar very much.
14. At all parties, you are usually called not by name, but “American.”
15. But the most important thing is that you have a group of amazing and loyal friends.
