Я люблю vs Мне нравится
• Я люблю (+accusative)
[ya lyub-lyu]
I love
It is just a stronger, more definite version of:
• Мне нравится (+nominative) ('мне'-dative)
[mne nra-vi-tsa]
I like/I'm fond of
🔻When comes to things, foods, occupations, they are more or less interchangeable:
• Мне нравится кофе.
Or
• Я люблю кофе.
Both verbs are OK here, the former is more like just stating a fact, the latter is a bit stronger and more passionate.
🔻When it comes to people and relationship, it's basically same as above, but with the additional nuance of being permanent and exclusive.
• Мне нравятся Римма. = I like Rimma.
vs
• Я люблю Римму. = she is the one. (it's the confession of love.)
🔻If you want to use something strong, you could also say:
• Я обожаю русский. (+accus.)
[ya a-ba-zha-yu rus-skiy]
I adore (the) Russian (language)

🇬🇧 Why are you so сonstrained? Get relaxed!
The key:
This is a play on word 'закрепостить' - to enslave.
Its antonym is 'раскрепостить' - to liberate.
Whereas 'раскрепоститься' means to feel free, to relax, to not feel stressed or reserved.

Masculine nouns:
• Космонавт (космонавты)
[kas-ma-naft (kas-ma-naf-ty)]
Cosmonaut(s)
• Астронавт (астронавты)
[as-tra-naft (as-tra-naf-ty)]
Astronaut(s)
🔻The new word 'космонавт' was formed artificially in the early 1960s by combining the roots of the Greek words 'kosmos' - “universe” and 'nautes' - “swimmer”.
🔻The difference between 'космонавт' and 'астронавт' is just nationality. The word 'astronaut' was “invented” by an Englishman, whereas 'cosmonaut' - by a Russian.
🔻On the territory of the post-Soviet space, pilots and explorers of extraterrestrial space are called 'cosmonauts', whereas in most other countries the word 'astronauts' was used.

Forwarded from Russian Diplomat 🅉
On April 12, 1961 the world's first manned flight into space was carried out by Yuri Gagarin on the Soviet spacecraft "Vostok"
Orbiting Earth in the spaceship, I saw how beautiful our planet is. People, let us preserve and increase this beauty, not destroy it!

🔻On April 12, 1961, the Vostok satellite was launched into outer space for the first time with a person on board.
🔻The pilot of the the Vostok satellite was the Soviet pilot-cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, who later turned into a symbol of space exploration and became one of the most famous people of the 20th century.
🔻The flight around the globe took 108 minutes, after which the ship landed at the planned location at 10:55 am Moscow time near the village of Smelovka in the Saratov region.
🔻Since then, this day has been celebrated in Russia as Cosmonautics Day, and in the world as International Day of Human Space Flight.
🔻This event was a colossal step for all humanity, opening up controlled space exploration to people!
