• Икать (imperf.)
[ikat']
To hiccup
• Икота (икоты) (femin.noun)
[i-ko-ta]
Hiccup(s)
🔻Interestingly, there's a Russian proverb which is a playful way of trying to stop hiccup by transferring it to someone else:
• Икота, икота, перейди на Федота, с Федота на Якова, с Якова на всякого.
[i-kо-ta, i-kо-ta, pi-riy-di na Fi-dо-ta, s Fi-dо-ta na Ya-ka-va, s Ya-ka-va na fsya-ka-va]
🇬🇧 SLT: Hiccup, hiccup, go to Fedot, from Fedot to Yakov, from Yakov to anyone.

Операция 'Белуха'
🔻In December 1984, 3,000 beluga whales were spotted in the Chukchi Peninsula’s waters. The whales were left in their small breathing pools, waiting for a miracle to break the ice and free them.
🔻When locals heard about the whales, they quickly came to help by feeding them frozen fish and digging the ice to let them breathe. But the winter is harsh in North-Eastern Russia, and the whales would soon die under the thick ice pack.
🔻In February 1985, the authorities called Moskva (a fierce Russian ice breaker) for help.
🔻However, when Moskva and its crew finally reached the whales, they were afraid of the giant ship and refused to follow it in the canal.
🔻What happened next sounds unreal! One person on the vessel recalled that marine mammals react to music. After multiple experiments, the belugas reacted to classical music and followed the icebreaker.
🔻The operation took 2 weeks and cost $200K.

День Дачника!
[den' dach-ni-ka]
Dacha Owner's Day!
🔻Дача [da-cha] (dacha) is a Russian suburban country house with a small garden where city dwellers have their leisure time and do gardening. It's not just a 'house in the village'! It's much closer to the family estate in miniature.
🔻The word 'дача' comes from the word 'давать' (to give). This name stuck in the 18th century, when Peter I decided that it was convenient to keep officials near the new capital, and began to give them nearby land plots near St. Petersburg.
🔻The usual meaning of a country house, adapted for living in the summer, appeared later, in the 19th century.
😉 Don't forget to congratulate your Russian friends on this day!

🐋 Cool news from our Sakhalin related to the World Whale and Dolphin Dаy - there the developer of unmanned boats was able to establish contact with killer whales using a marine drone that will help lead killer whales away from fishing vessels.
The programmer integrated a speaker with a recording of killer whale sounds into a surface drone and led a whole pod of whales in the Sea of Okhotsk. The tests took place as part of the educational intensive “Archipelago 2024”.

TOP-5 most beautiful waterfalls in Altai
1. Uchar, the largest of all waterfalls in Altai, 160 metres high. It is so loud that it is impossible to hear someone speaking directly into your ear!
2. Kurkure, located on the territory of the natural park "Ak Cholushpa" in a picturesque canyon.
3. Korbu, located on the coast of Lake Teletskoye. The stream falls on the rocks from a height of 12.5 m and plays with all the colours of the rainbow.
4. Kuiguk, flowing from Lake Kuiguk, the water in which is bright turquoise. It is located at an altitude of about 2000 m surrounded by mountains covered with eternal ice.
5. Ular waterfalls - Big and Small. The flow of water seems to be squeezed in a narrow crevice, and rushes out like a rainbow-tinted fan douche.

Anatoly Kashpirovsky and Allan Chumak: Soviet 'Healers'.
🔻In the late 80s, the whole country sat down in front of the TV to receive a “healing mindset” from Anatoly Kashpirovsky, finally get their “own alarm clock” to work and charge a jar of water from Allan Chumak.
🔻Anatoly Kashpirovsky (psychotherapist) and Allan Chumak (journalist) claimed to possess supernatural abilities to cure various ailments through a combination of hypnosis and "energy transfer."
🔻These sessions became a national phenomenon, with millions tuning in to witness their purported miracles.
🔻However, their practices were met with skepticism and controversy. Kashpirovsky's methods were criticized for lacking scientific basis, while Chumak's "energy" was seen as a pseudoscientific hoax.
🔻Both Kashpirovsky and Chumak faded into obscurity after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
📎 You can watch their sessions on the Internet by yourselves:
▶️ Kashpirovsky

🔻The Troitsko-Bainovskoe deposit of refractory clays is famous for the fact that in abandoned quarries there are a large number of crystals and intergrowths of gypsum, pyritе, and the water in the reservoirs from the workings acquires various exotic colours.
🔻It is a popular tourist attraction in the Sverdlovsk region and a source of inspiration for photographers!
