Доброе утро, товарищи!

ТЕПЕРЬ vs СЕЙЧАС

Теперь
  [ti-per']

Сейчас (from old Slav. 'сей' + 'час' -> this hour)
  [siy-chas]

🔻Both adverbs are translated as 'now'. ✔️Но есть один нюанс!

🔻СЕЙЧАС refers to a shorter period of time: 'at this very moment'.

Мы отдыхаем сейчас.
  [my a-dy-kha-yem siy-chas]
🇬🇧 We're taking some rest now. (Without any link to the previous actions).

🔻Whereas ТЕПЕРЬ is a broad concept of time in a number of concepts “раньше (before), теперь (now), потом (after that)”, more shaded by the meaning of 'result' or 'then/after that'.

Мы всю неделю работали ✔️как папа Карло. Теперь мы отдыхаем.
[my vsyu ni-de-lyu ra-bo-ta-li kak pa-pa kar-la. ti-per' my a-dy-kha-yem]
🇬🇧 We've been working hard the whole week. Now we're relaxing.

🎧🗣👇 Listen and practice.

🙄Доброе утро, дорогие мои товарищи!
С понедельником вас!


Раскачиваться (imperfective)
  [ras-ka-chi-va-tsa]
=
Раскачаться (perfective)
  [ras-ka-cha-tsa]

🔻From the verb 'качать' to rock, to swing

🔻Prefix РАС- when added to verbs, forms verbs with the meaning of increasing intensity.

1) The original meaning is to swing, to sway from side to side.

2) However, there's a 💢colloquial meaning of the verb: to get off to a slow start, to be slow to start acting.

Что-то ты медленно раскачиваешься! Давно пора начать работу!
[chto-ta ty med-lin-na ras-ka-chi-va-yish-sya! dav-no pa-ra na-chat' ra-bo-tu]
🇬🇧 You're getting off to a slow start! It's high time to start working!

🎧🗣👇 Listen, practice, быстрее раскачиваемся и начинаем работать!
