Lesson Transcript

Hi everyone! I’m Alisha.
Welcome to Conversational Phrases!
We’ve found that the best way to learn a language is to speak it from day one! And the best way to start speaking is to learn phrases that you’ll use in real conversations.
In this lesson, you’ll learn conversational phrases to answer the question, "What are you going to talk about?" After watching this video, you’ll be able to introduce a topic you want to talk about.
Now, let’s take a look at some conversational phrases!
Listen to the dialogue.
О чём вы расскажете? (O chyom vy rasskazhete?)
Я расскажу о своих увлечениях. (Ya rasskazhu o svoikh uvlecheniyakh.)
Once more with the English translation.
О чём вы расскажете? (O chyom vy rasskazhete?)
“What are you going to talk about?”
Я расскажу о своих увлечениях. (Ya rasskazhu o svoikh uvlecheniyakh.)
“I'm going to talk about my hobbies.”
First of all you'll need to learn how to say “What are you going to talk about?”
That's:
О чём вы расскажете? (O chyom vy rasskazhete?)
Listen to it again:
О чём вы расскажете?, О чём вы расскажете? (O chyom vy rasskazhete?, O chyom vy rasskazhete?)
This Russian sentence literally translates as “About what will you talk?”
But it means “What are you going to talk about?”.
Now, how do you answer this question?
The pattern is:
Я расскажу о [topic]. (Ya rasskazhu o [topic].)
“I'm going to talk about [topic].”
This Russian sentence literally translates as “I will talk about [topic].”
But it means “I'm going to talk about [topic].”.
For example:
“I'm going to talk about my hobbies.”
Я расскажу о своих увлечениях., Я расскажу о своих увлечениях. (Ya rasskazhu o svoikh uvlecheniyakh., Ya rasskazhu o svoikh uvlecheniyakh.)
