• Родиться в рубашке (perf.)
[rа-di-tsa v ru-bash-ke]
SLT: To be born in a shirt
Meaning:
This idiom describes someone incredibly lucky, someone who always escapes danger or difficult situations unscathed.
English Equivalent:
To be born under a lucky star, born with a silver spoon in one's mouth
Etymology:
The expression likely originates from the belief that babies born enveloped in the amniotic sac (the "shirt") were especially protected and destined for good fortune.
Example:
• Ей чудом удалось остаться целой в этой аварии. Она родилась в рубашке!
She miraculously survived that accident. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth!

🔻The word блохер [blo-kher] is a Russian slang term, a playful and ironic neologism. It's a combination of "блогер" (blogger) and "блоха" (flea).
🔻In terms of humans, блохер is considered to be a blogger of low-quality, annoying, or insignificant. Whereas some fluffy bloggers with real fleas can be pretty interesting to watch😉 !

🔻Russian has nuances that are only understandable to native speakers or advanced language learners. A kind of secret code:). The meaning of a sentence can even depend on intonation.
🔻The words in these sentences might seem identical, but the meaning is completely different!
1. Не надо меня уговаривать.
[ni na-da mi-nya u-ga-va-ri-vat']
I don't agree, and persuasion won't work.
2. Меня не надо уговаривать.
[mi-nya ni na-da u-ga-va-ri-vat']
No need to persuade me, I agree.
