• И один в поле воин, если он по-русски скроен.
[i a-din f po-le vo-in yes-li on pa-rus-ski skro-yen]
SLT: And one man in the field is a warrior, if he is made in the Russian way.

🔻This relatively young proverb is an interpretation of the older Russian proverb 'Один в поле не воин' (A single man in the field is no warrior).

🔻It is based on observation of the behavior of Russians who were not afraid of superior opponents on the battlefield.

🔻How should one say 'different' in Russian?

• Разный
[raz-nyj]

• Другой
[dru-goy]

Both adjectives can be translated as 'different' in English.

❗But:

1. 'Разный' refers to 'various and diverse' pointing out the variety.

2. 'Другой' means 'another, other, the other' pointing out something else.

Example:
• Есть разные коты, но мне другого не надо!
[yest' raz-ny-ye ka-ty no mnye dru-go-va ni na-da]
🇬🇧 There are different cats, but I don’t need another!
