Вуууу!!!!

.

My good friends Star and Jack requested that I take some of the Russian words my Human wasn't using and put them here so that their human can make pictures and teach human puppies something.

A long time ago, my Human studied Russian. Then she studied Ukrainian. She also studied German, Modern Hebrew, Sanskrit, and Bahasa Malaysia. My Human's stupid, though 'cause she can't speak Sibe or Dog at all! (By the way, the title of this post is "woooo" in Russian.)

i = like the ea sound in scream

e = eh (like what humans say when they can't hear something)


Звезда (zvezda) Star

ДЖак (Dzak) Jack

карандаши (karandashi) pencils

книги (knigi) books

учитель (oochitel) teacher

тигр (tigr) tiger

ковбой (kovboy) cowboy

мальчик (malchik) boy

девушка (devooshka) girl

глупость (gloopost) stupidity

собака (sobaka) dog

кот (kot) cat


My Human had to memorize a stupid poem in her Russian class. The guy who wrote the book believed that the weirder the vocabulary, the easier it was to memorize. That's true, however my Human seldom has to talk about talking cockroaches in Russian.

Below is my Human's favorite poem:

Между стулом и столом
Режет Женя нос с ножом,
Перед братом и отсом.
Это очень странный дом


Roughly translated this is:

Between the chair and the table
Zhenya is cutting his nose with a knife,
In front of his brother and father.
This is a very strange house.


My Human is очень странный also!!!
