• Натворить дел (or делов <-colloquial) (perf.asp.)
[na-tva-rit' del]
SLT: To create deeds

🔻It's a colloquial expression often used to describe someone who got into trouble or caused problems. 

🔻It's similar to the English expressions "to make a mess", "to screw up" or "to get into a lot of trouble."

🔻The phrase is often used in a humorous or ironic way.

• Посмотрите на него! Натворил делов и сидит довольный!
[pa-sma-tri-ti na ni-vo. na-tva-ril di-lof i si-dit da-vol'-nyj]
Look at him! He's made a mess and is sitting happy!

👋Доброе утро, товарищи!

1. Ругать (imperf.asp.)
[ru-gat']
To scold, criticize someone

2. Поругать (perf.asp.)
[pа-ru-gat']
To spend some time scolding
(mildly) someone.
🔻Prefix ПО- indicates an action limited in time.

3. Отругать (perf.asp.)
[at-ru-gat']
🔻Prefix ОТ- gives it a complete meaning and more negative connotation compared to simply “поругать”.

4. Наругать (perf.asp.)
[na-ru-gat']
❌ This form is grammatically incorrect, used in informal speech, particularly by children or uneducated people.

🔻The actions of these verbs are aimed at 1 object (ругать/поругать/отругать кого? whom?).

❗But:
• Ругаться (imper.asp.)
[ru-ga-tsa]
=
• Поругаться (perf.asp.)
[pa-ru-ga-tsa]
To quarrel, argue

• Выругаться (perf.asp.)
[vy-ru-ga-tsa]
To swear, rap out an oath

🎧🗣👇 Не ругайтесь!

⚠️ Did you know that an eggplant (aubergine) contains nicotine?

🔻9 kg of eggplants = 1 cigarette

🔻In Russian, there is an interesting similar expression:

• Кури бамбук! (Imperative, singular)
[ku-ri bam-buk]
SLT: Smoke bamboo!

🔻It means 'deliberately or forcedly do nothing /relax /sit back /take it easy'.
