Ба́бье ле́то [ ˈbabjye ˈleta ] Indian summer
Why ба́бье (women's)❓
From the words:
▪️Ба́ба [ˈbaba] (colloquial) a woman
▪️Ба́бы [ˈbabɨ/y] women
🍁Autumn warming coincides with the end of field work; at this time, women usually took up household chores and prepared for winter.
🍁In Rus', “Ба́бье ле́то” was also called “Marfа’s summer,” and for women it meant the period of preparing ripened fruits for the winter, that is, “women’s work.”

• Вы́лупиться (perfective, low colloquial, rude)
[ výlupitʹsja ]
Meaning:
1) hatch out
2) But❗in spoken Russian you'll highly likely hear this verb with a different meaning: to star wide-eyed at someone.
When someone doesn't like the way you are looking at him/her, he or she can say: "Чё вылупился?" if you are a male, or "Чё вылупилась?" if you're a female, like 'What are you looking at? Are you messin' with me?'
Чё=Что
⚠️If you hear this, be careful, the other person is showing his/her agression.
• Чё вы́лупился?? (Addressing to a male)
[ chyo výlupilsja ]
• Чё вы́лупилaсь?? (Addressing to a female)
[ chyo výlupilas' ]
🎧🗣 👇 Listen and practice.

🔻'Переборщить' came from the adjective 'переборЧивый' which means 'too picky', letter Ч was replaced with Щ just to make it pronounce easier.
• Ты переборщила! (feminine)
[ty pi-ri-bar-shchi-la]
You overdid it!
🎧🗣 👇 Listen and practice your pronunciation.
