🔻During the famous Swiss campaign, when A. V. Suvorov (1730 - 1800) was the commander-in-chief of the combined Russian-Austrian forces, the allies did everything possible to avoid fulfilling their obligations, and the main burden of the war march fell on our soldiers.
🔻After the brilliant completion of this most difficult campaign in the history of wars, the Austrians, wanting to show that they, supposedly, "also did a lot", decided to issue a commemorative medal in honor of the heroic campaign.
🔻Having learnt about this, Suvorov only said:
— On one side of this medal, the Russian coat of arms should be minted with the motto 'С нами Бог!' (Literally: God is with us!), and on the other, the Austrian coat of arms with the motto 'Бог с ними!' (Literally: God is with them!)
❓What's the difference?
• С нами Бог! is a classical battle motto showing faith in victory.
• Бог с ними! means 'Let it be so'. This is the expression of agreement, forgiveness, concession.

Unlike English with a fixed SVO (subject-verb-object) structure, Russian is much more flexible.
🔻This flexibility stems from the fact that Russian words change form to indicate their grammatical function in a sentence. Also attributives usually precede the noun they modify.
🔻Word order can affect the emphasis and nuance of a sentence, especially in spoken Russian. The information you'd like to emphasize comes first in a sentence.
Example:
• Красивые девушки поют русскую песню.
Beautiful girls are singing a Russian song.
SVO:
🔵 КрасивЫЕ девушкИ (кто?/who? Nomin., plural)
🔵 поЮТ (что делают?/what are they doing? imperf, present tense)
🔵 русскУЮ песнЮ (что они поют?/what are they singing? Accus., singular)
🔻Since the nouns have particular endings, you won't confuse the subject and the object:
• Русскую песню поют красивые девушки.
=
• Русскую песню красивые девушки поют.
=
• Поют красивые девушки русскую песню.

Унылая пора! Очей очарованье!
Приятна мне твоя прощальная краса —
Люблю я пышное природы увяданье,
В багрец и в золото одетые леса,
В их сенях ветра шум и свежее дыханье,
И мглой волнистою покрыты небеса,
И редкий солнца луч, и первые морозы,
И отдалённые седой зимы угрозы.
🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁🍂🍁
А melancholy time! So charming to the eye!
Your beauty in its parting pleases me -
I love the lavish withering of nature,
The gold and scarlet raiment of the woods,
The crisp wind rustling o'er their threshold,
The sky engulfed by tides of rippled gloom,
The sun's scarce rays, approaching frosts,
And gray-haired winter threatening from afar.

Among all the heroes of Slavic mythology, Кот Баюн (the Cat Bayun) can be considered the most enigmatic.
🔻We can find mention of this animal with steel claws and fangs not only in folklore, but also in Pushkin's poem (he walks on a chain in Lukomorye).
🔻The Cat Bayun lived in the forests, far from people and not very fond of guests. The beast sat on an iron pillar and when he saw a traveller, he would begin to purr and talk to him. Having lulled the person's vigilance, the cat would pounce on him, kill and eat him.
🔻Because of the mythical creature's ability to speak, he was called Bayun, from the word "баить" to talk. It is from here that the well-known word "убаюкивать" to lull, to deprive of vigilance originates.
🔻He could cure diseases and even grant eternal life with his purring.
🔻In some fairy tales, the Cat Bayun is mentioned as a faithful assistant to Baba Yaga.
❓Do you want to know about other Russian folklore characters? ->❤

On September, 23, 1980, in Severodvinsk, Russia, the world's largest submarine 'Акула' ('Shark') was launched.
🔻On this day, the world’s largest submarine – as tall as a nine-story building and almost two football fields long, touched water for the first time.
🔻The new submarine was a worthy response to the American project of “Ohio” class submarines.
🔻The designers faced a difficult technical challenge – to accommodate 24 missiles weighing almost 100 tons each on board.
🔻After many design revisions, it was decided to place the missiles between two strong hulls.
🔻As a result, the first “Akula” submarine was built in a record short time – in 5 years.
🔻The crew of 160 people could serve in comfortable conditions: the submarine had a gym, swimming pool, solarium, sauna, lounge, and a pet corner.
