How do we learn Russian fast?
Perhaps there is no other language in the world that we Bulgarians feel as close to as Russian. Even if you never learned it, if you get into such an environment, the chance to understand what they say is huge. Another question is that you will hardly be able to answer Russian. Maybe just this closeness, sometimes creates unrealistic expectations in people who start to learn Russian. And when they enter the language, they are discouraged by lack of quick results. If you have decided to start learning Russian, here are some useful tips and facts that will help you set the right goals and expectations.

Similarities with Bulgarian

It is impossible to complete the subject, but let us try to outline in basic terms how the two languages are similar.
  • General roots "The Russian language is the basis of what is called the Old-Welly-Kursh language. By the end of the 17th century, however, in Russia old Bulgarian was official. There he functions in his Russian editing, but this is the main reason for the proximity between the two languages.
  • Alphabet 
  • Words  On the one hand, the common root . . . the old Bulgarian language. At the same time, we should not miss the fact that in a new time, the Bulgarian language has adopted many Russian words and expressions from both everyday and everyday life terms and specialized vocabulary. In all cases, however, the same words help in communication and understanding.
  • Highlight "As in Bulgarian, it is free and mobile. This means that there are no strictly defined rules in both languages which syllable or letter is the accent when pronounced. So you must try to remember her words with the right place of emphasis. This is important because, as in Bulgarian, it sometimes plays the role of a meaning distinguishor.
  • Rod  The conclusions and logic of the grammatical family will not be difficult because you can find parallels with the Bulgarian.

Don't be afraid of grammar.

It is one of the components by which the two languages differ quite a bit. But that's not cause for concern. Just realize that despite the similarities, this is a different language and try to understand its logic. For example:
  1. The following shall be reported: "Unlike Bulgarian, Russian language has a maturity system. Because there is no such in our language, people often experience unexplained fear before they begin to study it. Here is a very brief introduction that will help you overcome it:
    1. Name  It shows who's doing the action.
    2. Vinous 
    3. Parental  It comes into use mainly when we talk about quantities, in denial and comparison.
    4. Data element 
    5. Creative "Shows how or what action is done can express co-operation. It is used with some reversible verbs and prepositions.
    6. Offered  Always used in combination with prepositions, most often in and out.
  2. Prosthetics  In Russian, there are three:
    1. First 
    2. Second 
    3. Third 
In fact, the difficulty in maturity comes here . . in remembering the change of maturity endings. But ultimately, like with any other grammar and here the best teacher is practice. It is also important to know that different maturity in Russian can change the meaning of the sentence depending on the form used. Therefore, it is useful to pay attention to the context and the way words are used in different situations. Time "Unlike Bulgarian, however, there are only three verb times here . "The present, past and future. But you should keep in mind that the time of the verb is directly related to its appearance. The undeserving ones have forms for all three times, and those of the completed . . only for the past and for the future.

How Easy to Learn Words

We have already mentioned that the two languages have a very close vocabulary. This may sometimes be a good facility, but it can also hide tricks. For example, the Russian word chair in Bulgarian is translated as a table. If you mean chair the right word is tile. If you say you're going for a walk in the woods, don't be surprised if they offer you mountain gear. It's just a Russian forest means mountain, and forest = forest. So even if the word sounds familiar, first take an interest in its meaning to avoid unwanted misunderstandings. The Russian's fall may seem difficult at first glance, but with perseverance and practice they will become a natural part of the language.
