ЕС утвердил 17-й пакет санкций против России, сообщила Кая Каллас.
Тем временем русские ...
Kaja Kallas announced that the EU has approved the 17th package of sanctions against Russia.
Meanwhile, the Russians...

😅Believe me, this exists in every Russian home, like a cultural code of the nation:

• Пакет с пакетами (masc.noun)
[pa-ket s pa-ke-ta-mi]
A (plastic) bag with bags.

📎 Preposition С requires a noun in Instrumental case after it.

❓️А у вас есть дома пакет с пакетами?

Очень люблю or Много люблю?

🔻The adverbs много [mno-ga] and oчень [o-chin'] can be translated as а lot / very much. Но есть нюанс!

🔢 Много goes with things you can measure or count:

• много работать (to work a lot)
• много есть (to eat a lot)

🔢 Очень is usually used for emotions and states - things you can’t count:

• очень люблю (I love someone/something a lot)
• очень хочу (I do want something)

✅️ОЧЕНЬ люблю
✅️ОЧЕНЬ хочу
❌️МНОГО люблю

💢 BTW it is possible to use много хочу (I want a lot of...). When I was a child I often heard a proverb:

• Много хочешь - мало получишь!
SLT: Want much - get little!
Grasp all, lose all.

😉But that's not a healthy mindset, just so you know.
