| Hello and welcome to Russian Survival Phrases. This course is designed to equip you with the language skills and knowledge to enable you to get the most out of your visit to Russia. So join us for Russian Survival phrases. You will be surprised at how far a little Russian will go. |
| Today we're going to continue on with counting as we cover 11-100. |
| Let`s just quickly review 1-10. |
| adin |
| dva |
| tri |
| chetyre |
| pyat` |
| shest` |
| sem` |
| vosem` |
| devyat` |
| desyat` |
| In Russian counting from 11-20 is also very straightforward so let's jump right in: |
| 11 - adinatsat' |
| 12 - dvenatsat' |
| 13 - trinatsat' |
| 14 - chetyrnatsat' |
| 15 - pyatnatsat' |
| 16 - shestnatsat' |
| 17 - semnatsat' |
| 18 - vasemnatsat' |
| 19 - devyatnatsat' |
| 20 - dvatsat' |
| Numbers from 21-99 are formed by combining numbers we have already covered. |
| For example, if you want to say 21 just add one which is “adin” to twenty which is “dvatsat'”, altogether we have “dvatsat' adin”. |
| So, now we will count from 30-90 by tens: |
| 30 - tritsat' |
| 40 - sorak |
| 50 - pyat'desyat |
| 60 - shest'desyat |
| 70 - sem'desyat |
| 80 - vosem'desyat |
| 90 - devyanosta |
| Finally we have the number for 100 which is sto. Of course, while you are in Russia, you might want to do some shopping. The currency in Russia is ruble. “One ruble” in Russian is “adin rybl`”. From 2-4 is “rublya”. For example: “dva rublya” (two rubles), “tri rublya” (three rubles), “chetyre rublya” (four rubles). From 5-21 is “rubley”. For example: “pyat` rubley” (five rubles), “shest` rubley” (six rubles) etc. Then just apply the same pattern we gave for 1, then 2-4. And so you have “dvatsat' dva rublya”, which is “22 rubles”, “dvatsat' pyat` rubley” which is “25 rubles”. Don`t forget to check the PDF for detailed explanations. |
| Alright, that's going to do for today. See you tomorrow, which in Russian is da zaftra! |
