Other remarks:

The groups that used to be in FB have been taken away, the Google group is also superseded by the Facebook group “Huliganov’s Russian Lessons Really Work” apologies if anyone’s time gets wasted by looking for these groups, hopefully you find the up to date groups, and also of course the GoldList Method User Group on FB.

Today’s lessons is about 1a verbs, adverbs and vocabulary building.

Quote of the clip: “Ostorozhno, tam gulyayut po-russki!”

Other remarks:

This lesson talks about names and their diminuative forms. It finishes with a joke and a song – Huliganov certainly does it his way.

Quote of the clip: “Their wives would have carried on calling them Volodya long after the public would not have dared to do so.”

Other remarks:

An explanation of the varying degrees of formality and how to address someone in Russia, the idea of “vy” and “ty”, when to use name and patronymic, when to use diminuatives. Explanation of how the periphrastic “do” is not present in Russian, and that the present tense contains I do, I do do, and I am doing. Owing to the size, the lesson is split into two parts.
