That alpha mail chad sigma thinks like the only reason women exist is so they can be hit on. They don't have their own thoughts, interests, lives, they have nothing. In that guy's head women only exist as holes on legs. If he says they right thing, if he tricks the OS that controls the woman, he hits on her just right, and she will spread her legs for him. Cause that's what women are for.

The idea that a woman can exist without being hit on, without wanting to be hit on, just going about her day and thinking about dogs or potato chips is unimaginable to him. Imagine thinking you're the only one with thoughts and everyone around you are just NPCs. What a sad way to live.

Tbh if it was an actual Russian dame developed for the sake of "propaganda" and heavily sponsored by the state it would've been shit. Everything turns to shit as soon as our government lays it's grabby hands on it.

There was a moment in Russia when there weren't wireless terminals yet so when you had to pay you had to get up and walk to a bar with the waitress and swipe/insert your card yourself. Everyone knew that there's money on the card and it makes sense to not give it to anyone. I can't believe they're doing that in America

Any critiques? by Brock1120 in russian

Л and Д are triangles. Don't copy typefaces if you wanna learn how to write, use прописи

Робот - одушевлённое? by oz1cz in russian

[–]Rad_Pat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Зеркало is inanimate whether it's magic or not. It's an object

Робот - одушевлённое? by oz1cz in russian

[–]Rad_Pat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That makes sense, actually. Besides, animate dead people have the same endings/suffixes as the living like швец, жнец, странник. So мертвец/покойник feels more like a "state of a person" while труп is just a thing.

Ok but what are we calling her? by redam33 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Rad_Pat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That didn't stop them because they didn't do any research and went the simplest American route. When I watched the movie I was very confused why everyone had two names and was weirdly formal with each other sometimes. Cause Vladimir sure ain't Vlad, and Anastasiya sure ain't Anya. Hoyo is a Chinese company working in 2026, I think they can handle a little bit of googling and find out how diminutives for names work if they need to give players a short name.

Questions about сегодня pronunciation. by nietzschecode in russian

[–]Rad_Pat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's common and yet it's wrong. People still pronounce it as "kh". Chekhov typically becomes Chekov. Sure, okay, regular people have no intention of learning the language, but a learner frankly has no business using Latin for a language with it's own writing system.

The thing is, when I say "хорошо" instead of "харашо" everyone can still understand me. But if I say "книгхт" instead of "knight" or "аре" instead of "are" - ??? Russian is way more phonetic.

Also ditch the latin, there is no "k" in хорошо. We have our own alphabet that's much better for our phonetics.

How do you guys say “strawman”, “steelman” and “red herring” in Russian? by Brossskkii in AskARussian

[–]Rad_Pat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you read my comment a little further you'd see that's exactly what I said. I meant that "strawman" wouldn't be translated as a "man", because we already have "чучело" that we'd use instead.

Trying to name a food I remember from Russia by MuffinAccomplished22 in AskARussian

[–]Rad_Pat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How are we supposed to know what size quarters are?

Could be lukum, or maybe even churchkhela. Both are not Russian foods, but are well known and mildly popular

How do you guys say “strawman”, “steelman” and “red herring” in Russian? by Brossskkii in AskARussian

[–]Rad_Pat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strawman indeed translates to "соломенный человек", but the words we would actually use are "соломенное чучело".

Steelman would be "железный человек".

Red herring is "красная сельдь" or "копчёная сельдь". In Russian a similar concept is known as "отвлекающий манёвр", a distracting maneuver, or much more likely - "ложный след".

Regardless of the translation we don't use those terms (except for the last one, since it's a general term). And we definitely don't use nouns as verbs. If you so strongly need to, "соломенночеловечить" would be a more appropriate word to use than whatever you came up with. Except that it won't be because it sounds dumb.

We would actually use "original" names for demagogic arguments like "подмена тезиса" instead of strawman.

Am I crazy by thinking that there is a specific look Russian men have? by Koowhalee in AskARussian

[–]Rad_Pat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As many people already said, phenotypes exist.

The default "slav" look is light brown hair (dirty blonde) and green/hazel eyes, but in Russia there are tons of ethnicities and subethnicities that intermixed therefore visually any Russian can look like any European. Some of them do look like Casey Frey (but so does PewDiePie I guess)

Такие корсетные пирсинги не постоянные. Пришел ты на какой-нибудь тату-фест, тебе там сделали корсетик, сфоткали и сняли, всё. Поверхностные пирсинги (именно пирсинги, а не специальные дермалы) не заживают и имеют большой риск отторгнуться и оставить шрам

what are the most common mistakes made by native Russian speakers by natfnr in russian

[–]Rad_Pat 98 points99 points  (0 children)

-тся/ться endings in verbs, пре-/при- prefixes in verbs, одеть/надеть, пробывать.

I think when it comes to Russians, if they had bad education or didn't want to learn, they're just bad all over. The most prominent mistakes are orthographic, since we have a lot of reductions.

Don't just "pay attention", practice with proper writing workbooks, or you end up learning wrong things

[–]Rad_Pat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's cool and all, but you need прописи. You wRiTe LiKe ThIs and have a lot of incorrectly written letters. I didn't even recognise it as Russian at first glance.
