Minneapolis Mass Shooting

Shooter leaves behind journals in russian, FSB insignia, and weapons marked with russian words. Local TV reports it as “some foreign language.”

If this were Arabic, “terrorism” would be on screen in minutes. But when it’s russian, silence. And I can already predict - the shooter’s gender identity will be weaponized endlessly in debates, while their russian language and kremlin symbols quietly vanish from the story.

Children are dead. And America still looks away from moscow’s swamp.

Russia occupied less than 1% of Ukraine’s territory since November 2022, monitoring group says — Russian media shows US armored vehicle with Russian, American flags storming Ukrainian positions — Russian gasoline prices hit record highs after drone strikes shut refineries — Muscle beaches, drag racing, and drones falling into the sea. Summer in Odesa hasn’t stopped — In Ukraine, democracy finds its fiercest defenders … and more

Any #Russian speakers familiar with a card game called "Пасур"/"Pasur?"

Its a favorite among my family, but I'm trying to figure out the meaning of the name.

The Wikipedia article claims the name comes from Russian, but there are no references, and a DDG search only came up with a mention of place names.

#Russian nouns follow declension patterns determined by the gender and ending of the noun. Russian genders are fairly regular. #RussianGrammar #RussianLanguage #Languages. https://thelanguagegarage.com/russian-noun-declensions/

Me thinking that the most difficult part of learning Russian would be the pronunciation and getting used to the alphabet, while the real difficulty was understanding declension. #RussianLanguage #РусскийЯзык

Three schools in Ukraine still teach Russian as a separate subject, according to the report of the language ombudsman Taras Kremen. In September 2021, about 455,000 Ukrainian students had Russian language classes, while in September 2022, there were about 4,000. Currently, around 770 students are studying Russian. #Ukraine #RussianLanguage

"Look at his smirking face."

And listen to how often he has to clear his throat ...

I wonder when exactly he does it (after or before which sentences). Would certainly give more insight into his regard for other people's lives.

Anyone speaking Russian here?

Russian conjugation is a bit baffling … https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A%D0%BE%D1%81%D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%87%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8%D0%B5_%D0%BC%D0%B5%D0%B4%D1%83%D0%B7%D1%8B Космические медузы

i only know half a dozen words of the #RussianLanguage … but it's reputation is consistent with my initial impressions…

a weird detail to notice, or a weirdly morbid context to notice this in…

but this is a similarity between letters that i've never noticed before

G or Г and consonant Y?

a guy speaking #NorthAmericanEnglish saying the Russian name of a done

it sounded like it started with Y

but the image showed text starting with Г

@rvps2001 This is very interesting phrasing. "And if those screws/cogs are not adjusted, the airplane will fall apart in mid-air". I don't know #RussianProverbs, much less the #RussianLanguage... Was #Prigozhin speaking in his own idiosyncratic style or what?

Did #Spotify cut service to Russia?

seems weird for a Moscow based band from #Vladivostok to have nowhere in Russia in this list.

I could google … I might later … I'm mainly fishing for an excuse to mention #Biopsyhoz

they sound good … but i have no idea what the stand for… I only know half a dozen words of #RussianLanguage (yes, no, thanks, good morning, east)

are fans in #Latvia and Ukraine a good sign?

I'm even less sure what to make of Minsk …

Poland is surprising…
