So you could say that зачем is more like the English “to what end/ what do you hope” for example, “to what end will you continue these destructive actions” or “what do you hope to accomplish by banging a hammer on your car”. One is past and the other is future.
In his example of watching somebody beating on their car with a hammer ... It seems if you asked, "Зачем ты это делаешь?" this would be like asking, "What do you hope to accomplish by doing this?" It seems if you asked, "Почему ты это делаешь?" this would be more like asking, "What led you to do this?"
I’m saving all these all videos so I can find them later, they’re great for reference, I don’t really know them yet but, if I hear them in Russian content, I’ll need to find them again ! Thanks fedor!
I would suggest to make videos of you talking in russian with english subtitles. We need to hear russian people talk to learn faster and better. Anyway these videos are so good!! Thank you so much from Mexico.
Si, pero eso es para los que tienen un nivel intermedio o avanzado. Si te pones a escuchar ruso no te enteras de nada. Con un nivel intermedio puedes advinar el significado de las palabras atraves del contexto. Somos principiantes, así que no te servirá mucho escuchar un ruso hablar su idioma nativo. Yo lo porbé y no me he enterado de nada. Hablan rápido- todos nosotros o la mayoría de los nativos hablan sus idiomas maternos con bastanta agilidad y soltura. Para un oído extranjero le va a parecer que el nativo habla muy rápido, pero en teoria no habla más rápido que tu cuando hablas tu idioma nativo.
@@abbeygallepersonal Yo he aprendido algunas palabras y frases sueltas. Quizás superé un examen oficial del nivel A1. Como mucho estoy en el A2. Llevo desde enero estudiando unas 2-3 horas. Una cosa es entender ruso, identificar las palabras si las lees y otra cosa es la automatización, es decir, hablar un idioma con mucha naturalidad como si fuera un instinto o un sexto sentido. Yo estoy aprendiendo ruso con Babbel. Yo entiendo como 1000 palabras, pero reproducirlas yo mismo de manera natural no lo logro. Me refiero sin leerlas.
@@Kithzer It is difficult to pronounce words which has a lot of consonants on them. If I see 3 or 4 consonants together it is a nightmare to pronounce them and be understood. Russian is not like German or Italian. The language is indeed tough. It is not the alphabet, but several consonants together in words which makes the language hard to pronounce. I have no idea, what is you native language. If you are Bulgarian, Russian is not very difficult. It is very different to my native language.
Thank you for your charming videos. I have been to Ukraine twice this year and I am going back next spring. Since the people can understand Russian there, I find your videos helpful. Thank you for your good work.
thank you I like your videos it's very helpful for me, you know I have been I Russia for 2 months but I feel like am not making any promises.. so thanx again )
In Croatian it is basically all the same or very similar. We say zašto as "why" (for what), and počemu seems just as a different case of što (maybe dative/locative) :) Very interesting
About two years ago I started learning Russian. For some reason, reading it is easier than speaking and understanding because I don't know most words and I kinda spent more time learning the alphabet because my Spanish teacher always said "once you know the alphabet you'll be able to master the language easily". I do know the basics like how to ask for directions etc. English was easy because I watch a lot of English movies and I listen to a lot of English songs, I also think in English quite a lot. So, I came up with this Idea. What if I do the same with Russian. I still don't know how to properly speak Russian and whenever I try to think in the language all I can think of is "мне это не нравится" and a few other things. Some words sound familiar from time to time and there are times I fully understand a person but I just don't know how to formulate sentences to respond
05:20 Maybe it's "what are you trying to achieve by doing this"? (focusing on the consequences or intentions of the action instead of its causes and reasons behind it). Am I right?
I love your videos!👍😃 They're so helpful and to the point. About this video I have the following question: the 6th type you mentioned 'whose', is there also a similar word for plurals? In other words, which word precedes plural nouns, e.g. Whose books are these? Bye from the Netherlands.
About ЗАЧЕМ. I think one could explain it by saying that it's more like "What's the point of doing that thing? What do you expect to get from doing what you are doing?". Like "Почему ты здесь?" "Because I love russian and teaching" "А зачем?" "So that /because by doing that on YT you get to know Russian more easily" Am I right?
Hi Фёдор! Very useful video. Congratulations and thank you. Keep up the great work! But how do you say 'how'? Like for example: "How to eat with Russians?" You use что? Спасибо большое:)
@@groupvucic2235 Thank you, I had the exact same question and went around all day looking for an answer. Does this happen to all words, only some, is there a rule (maybe the 'sh' sound only when the letter is at the beginning of the word)? Thank you!
maybe because of the 'т' following the 'ч' ?: in 'четверг, человек, через, четыре'- you say 'tsch....'. Perhaps there's a rule saying 'if a consonant follows ч, then prononounce it as 'sch' ... ' ?
Could I use "почему" to answer something or is it like in english,in which we use another word for it(in this case,"because"). By the way,thanks for the video,great as always!
You can often tell by the noun's ending -а, usually fem. ending in a consonant usually masc. ending in -o usually neu. Of course names are gendered as the person is. There are exceptions of course and for knowing what nouns are which, you just have to memorize them.
привет Фиодор, что значит этот вопрос - Какие это были версии? Я не очень понимаю как слово "это" использоваться здесь. Измените, если грамматика неправа. Спасибо.
I have been trying to learn Russian for years, but I could never find a good RUclips channel. These videos are great! Thank you so much!
dang, is it that hard?
Luis nah I’ve been learning for a month and I know basic coms now
Wtf this shit gonna take years?!!! 😲🤯
What’s the best way to learn the grammar ?
@@sanaeel-aouady3989 well yea to a certaint level
As a foreign learner sometimes speaking Russian feels like walking down a stair that has one step less than you expected
Почему- for what reason (what instigated the decision)
Зачем- for what outcome
:D
Russian was my first language, but since going to school all the rest of it I've had to re learn a lot. Thanks for the videos.
So you could say that зачем is more like the English “to what end/ what do you hope” for example, “to what end will you continue these destructive actions” or “what do you hope to accomplish by banging a hammer on your car”. One is past and the other is future.
Зачем : how come?
In case there are any Spanish speakers here, I believe that the difference is like this in Spanish:
Почему -- Por qué
Зачем -- Para qué
Poetry honestly
In his example of watching somebody beating on their car with a hammer ...
It seems if you asked, "Зачем ты это делаешь?"
this would be like asking, "What do you hope to accomplish by doing this?"
It seems if you asked, "Почему ты это делаешь?"
this would be more like asking, "What led you to do this?"

Vaskolka - at what time
Atkuda ti - where are u from
Kuda - where from
Pachimu - why
For What reason - zachiem
Kakoye - which
Chey or chyor - whose
Thank you!
In Croatian it is basically all the same or very similar. We say zašto as "why" (for what), and počemu seems just as a different case of što (maybe dative/locative) :)

Thank you so much for tommow russian exam from myanmar.
I would say зачем is like "what are you trying to get out of doing this" and почему is like "what caused you to do this"
отлично видео - большое спасибо

i have the same exact problem, i feel you... i’m italian and i’ve been studying russian since october
@@Dada-fq6do the progress is slow but we're getting there haha
@@p1ndakaasafter 3 years, how has your Russian progressed? I'm curious to know, thank you
Are you still working on this? I think your site is really good.
Very very important

05:20 Maybe it's "what are you trying to achieve by doing this"? (focusing on the consequences or intentions of the action instead of its causes and reasons behind it). Am I right?
Great job#be fluent
this is my stumbling block ❤️
Finally I know the right meaning of во сколько! haha thanks #Be Fluent
#feluent your doing great job 👍👍
Ty ❤️💎
Good job bro awesome
That feeling when you are Russian and you don’t need to learn it. (But you learn German and English)
I love your videos!👍😃 They're so helpful and to the point.
About this video I have the following question: the 6th type you mentioned 'whose', is there also a similar word for plurals? In other words, which word precedes plural nouns, e.g. Whose books are these? Bye from the Netherlands.
Gosh i'm 4 years late, but i hope you'll still send the sheets to me. love your videos! very helpful)))) #befluent
Nice Video.
Please make a video on Level1 Vocabulary. Thanks
Just amazing! #befluent
Спасибо :)
#befluent Thank you so much my friend YOU are the reason me and my household are going to have success traveling to and communicating in Russia :)
Thanks honey 🍯 ♥️
You seem to have forgotten the question word “how!”
Perhaps почему is like "por qué" and зачем is like "para qué".
Хорошее видео!
Привет fedar
I'm in mascow now I learning Russian thanks so much for helping..
Always fallow ur videos its very helpful. .
Thank you so much!
#befluent i want all your lesson. :) can you send it to me the hard copy, thanks teacher fedor.
привет Фeдор! I'd like to ask you what´s the plural form of which? Grazie mille, your videos are completely extraordinary. Greetings from Mexico.
You are better than my russian teacher! привет из Франции.
спасибо #BeFluent
Привет Товарищ ! Я уже из Франции !❤ Ты говоришь по русски сейчас ?
Thanks u...
Хорошо
About ЗАЧЕМ.
I think one could explain it by saying that it's more like "What's the point of doing that thing? What do you expect to get from doing what you are doing?". Like "Почему ты здесь?" "Because I love russian and teaching" "А зачем?" "So that /because by doing that on YT you get to know Russian more easily" Am I right?
Yes!
Почему refers to past reasoning
Зачем refers to future benefit
Спасибо :) #befluent
Hi Фёдор! Very useful video. Congratulations and thank you. Keep up the great work!
But how do you say 'how'? Like for example: "How to eat with Russians?" You use что?
Спасибо большое:)
Maybe you found out by yourself, but "how" is "как". For example: "How are you?" = "Как дела?"
How come the letter 'ч' in "что" sounds like 'ш'? I thought it was supposed to sound like "ch" in "chair."
@@groupvucic2235 Thank you, I had the exact same question and went around all day looking for an answer. Does this happen to all words, only some, is there a rule (maybe the 'sh' sound only when the letter is at the beginning of the word)? Thank you!
@@groupvucic2235 I'll keep that in mind! Thanks for the feedback, take care
maybe because of the 'т' following the 'ч' ?: in 'четверг, человек, через, четыре'- you say 'tsch....'. Perhaps there's a rule saying 'if a consonant follows ч, then prononounce it as 'sch' ... ' ?
Could зачем be "intent"?
More of "What's the intent".
thank you )))
Could I use "почему" to answer something or is it like in english,in which we use another word for it(in this case,"because"). By the way,thanks for the video,great as always!
Are these all nominative? If so do these all change with case too?
The first letter of what in Russian and the first of whom don’t have the same sound , right ?
Why? Some rules ?
please make a video about КАТЮШA song I'm in love with it
Lol same, it’s why i’m Learning Russian to to be honest.
If you like Soviet war songs listen to this. This is truly a great song which sends shivers down the spine. ruclips.net/video/JQPmwzMopJw/видео.html
Great videos as always. Please speak more russian. Subtitles if needed.
How do you know if an object is masculine, fem, or neutral?
You can often tell by the noun's ending -а, usually fem. ending in a consonant usually masc. ending in -o usually neu.
Of course names are gendered as the person is. There are exceptions of course and for knowing what nouns are which, you just have to memorize them.

почему is about reason
зачем is about purpose
