Не о чем 🆚️ ни о чём
[ne a chem]
(Have) nothing (to ...)
🔻The emphasis in the sentence falls on the negative particle не.
🔻It signifies the absence of something specific to talk about, think about, or worry about: There's nothing (to talk/think/worry about):
• Вам не о чем беспокоиться!
You have nothing to worry about!
[ni a chyom]
About (absolutely) nothing
🔻The emphasis in this expression falls on the pronoun чём.
🔻The negative particle ни is written.
🔻It suggests an utter absence of any topic, subject, or reason, extending beyond the immediate context. It's a more emphatic negation meaning about absolutely nothing / not about a single thing:
• Сегодня я не хочу ни о чём думать.
Today I don't want to think about anything at all.
❗Incorrect:
❌Неочем
❌Ниочём

• Взять (кого-то, Accus.) на карандаш (perf.)
[vzyat' na ka-ran-dash]
SLT: To take someone/something on a pencil
Meaning:
To make a mental or written note about someone or something with the intention of paying close attention to them in the future; to keep an eye on someone.
Origin:
This term originated in the early 19th century in government agencies of the Russian Empire. The fact is that in lists of "unreliable" individuals kept by the Separate Corps of Gendarmes (Provincial Gendarme Administrations and Branches), which were written in ink, notes were made with a graphite pencil. This allowed for easy erasure if necessary. Hence the expression: взять на карандаш. It implies suspicion about a person, but without sufficient evidence.
• Кажется, ты мало работаешь, Наташа. Возьму тебя на карандаш!
It seems you're not working hard enough, Natasha. I'm going to keep an eye on you!

Russian women age quickly; their beauty is but a fleeting glimpse. This is not solely due to ethnographic peculiarities, but also because they are capable of boundless love.
A Russian woman, once in love, gives everything at once – the moment, her fate, her present, and her future. They are incapable of economy, they don't save anything for later, and their beauty quickly fades into the one they love.
Fyodor Dostoevsky

👶 A foreigner named Olivier came to Russia to live with his family and faced an unexpected difficulty when he had a son Theordor for whom he needed to choose a patronymic. For example, if a father's name is Ivan, his son will be Theodor Ivanovich.
The guy invites users to guess what patronymic name his child will have. As Olivier is the most famous New Year salad in Russia, people joke in the comments that his son will be Theodor Saladovich or Theodor NewYearovich 😁
