An interesting expression in the Russian language🔥🔥🔥

Let's look at the phrase:

Ты мне очень нужен (Ty mne òchen nùzhen)

Translated as - I really need you. And this is indeed the correct translation, but only if the word "очень" is not at the beginning of the sentence!🤯🤯🤯

If we say: "Очень ты мне нужен", then the meaning of this phrase changes to the opposite - I don't need you!
