A more important question: why don't you speak up as your country commits atrocities in Ukraine? When will the Ruzzian people take responsibility for turning a mass murderer loose on the world?
@@Tom-fo5ce , please try to find the answers from another sources then nowadays propaganda ( I am not Russian by the way, and no relation with Russia and even my country was split in some way because Russia politics in the second war and before and even my grandpa suffer a lot because of them being forced to change his name - now is a complete different situation) ) and even American media knows the truth
I have heard this from a Romanian inhabitant of Transylvania! That sounds so great! And I believe it can be true, as if you learn a foreign language, you can better understand the feelings of the native speakers of this language! As Eli said in this video, she translates "sayings" or thoughts she has in Russian into English or something else. It is very true that without exercise we forget the languages we have learned. Thank you for your insight!!! It's important for countries were they speak more than one language, around the world!
Vlada, That's nice to hear and makes me happy. Because after the age of 60 I began studying more than 25 languages. :-D For example, Hungarian, Bulgarian, Polish, Albanian, Yakut, Italian, Spanish, Romanian, etc. etc. All through internet resources. And I recently began learning Ukrainian too. Obviously very little of each language. It takes more time and effort to get advanced than I have available. And Arabic and Tigrinya are too difficult for me without a teacher, but I'm trying. ;-) Indo-european languages are much easier. Before 60 (I'm 75 now) I could only speak Swedish (my only native language), English, Japanese, German, Russian and very little Bosnian/SerboCroat. Vrlo malo. Zaboravio sam mnogo. ;-) I think it is important to be able to understand at least a little in many languages, and above all, understand about them and how they are related or not related. To see and enjoy the similarities and differences. Not ridicule other languages or dialects; they don't sound "funny". Every language and every dialect is optimal and super-best for the individual speaker of it. Please join my "all languages" group for peace and friendship between people of all kinds, against xenophobia! facebook.com/groups/Alla.sprak
Greetings from Türkiye🇹🇷. I totally understand your Tatar speaking. Someone who speaks Turkish can easily understand Tatar. I love the Tatar language. ❤️😁

My 10 year old son loves Russian alphabet since he was 4 (he is in the autism spectrum, so he tends to focus on things he likes🤗 and Russian alphabet is one of the languages he loves). He learned it from TH-cam and has been fascinated with the sound and the way it's written. So I learn it through him🥰🥰 And since he is expose to Tagalog, Ilonggo (These are Philippines main language and my dialect), Spanish and English he is also exposing himself to Turkish, Arabic, and Russian. And that's why he amazes everytime. And you amaze me by showing us around Russia🥰🥰🥰🥰
Мой родной язык немецкий, а я изучаю русский язык с начала 2021 года. Раньше я думал, что русский звучит очень агрессивно, но чем больше я учусь, тем мягче звучит для меня язык. Мягкие согласные звучат сладко для меня :)
Молодец что учишь русский. В школе выбор был между английским и немецким языком. Выбрал немецкий , потому что мать знала немецкий. Сейчас познания в английском чуть больше , чем в немецком😊
Я Французский, также изучаю русский язык в течение 5 лет, я хотел поехать в Россию только с любовью моей жизни. В сентябре я поехал в Новосибирск, чтобы встретиться со своим другом по переписке. Это было потрясающе в течение 3 недель, как в кино. К сожалению, мне пришлось уехать из-за мобилизации. И отношения на расстоянии между нами не сложились. Я действительно рад, что ты решила изучать французский. Италия и Франция - действительно две страны, которые россияне ценят больше всего. Я надеюсь, что однажды ты приедешь во Францию !
I am italian, I speak english and French and now I am learning Russian. Omg 😮 it is a freaking amazing language. I wonder why I didn’t start to do it when I was younger
I found your channel about 6 months ago when I started learning Russian and I think you and other Russian youtubers who enjoy language really instilled confidence in my learning journey. "Если вы говорите с человеком на языке, который он понимает, сказанное достигнет разума. Если вы говорите с ним на его родном языке, ваши слова достигнут сердца."
@@eclecticmn4838 nah korean is impossible to understand as a turk, %0 although it would be easy to learn as both are agglunitive and similar in word construction.
@@eclecticmn4838 There is a respectable amount of grammatical similarities among Turkic languages, Korean, Mongolian, Finnish, Estonian, Hungarian, Japanese etc. However, Turkish and Korean are totally different in vocabulary.
Hello from a Turkish viewer who was born and living in Germany. The same goes for my family and friends. We mix both languages into an interesting mix of both worlds 😂. And even more interesting is the fact that I understand some words and phrases when you spoke Tatar. So keep up the good work and I am looking forward to learn Russian (one day) and more about the russian soul.
I am from The Czech Republic. To be able speaking in 5 languages is amazing! For me Russian is a nice language. I learnt it for 3 years more than 30 years ago when I was on the elementary school. Because Czech is slavic language as Russian (and I was young boy) it wasn’t difficult. But because of cyrillic reading and writing wasn’t so easy. After that I learnt German for several years and I don’t like this language and I forgot it completely. And I started learning English when I was nearly 30.
I have always been very impressed by you and your videos. The fact that you can speak five languages fluently is absolutely amazing to me. I have so much enjoyed this particular video. Wow.! Thank you very much. 🙏
Go to Paris! 😄 As for mixing Russian and Tatar, it's a similar situation in southwest USA. People mix English and Spanish a lot. We call it 'Spanglish.' You can also sometimes see people having a conversation with one speaking Spanish, and the other English.
Eli, you've inspired me to try learning Russian. So far, I'm struggling because the letters look like Latin letters but sound different. But, I'll get it. I've learned Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, with some Scottish Gaelic, Swedish, and Greek.
I loved your language skills, especially speaking Tatar. I can also understand you when you are speaking your native language Tatar. I hope one day I can visit Tatarstan to see my Turkic relatives and how they live in Russia. Keep your self, Eli.
Thanks for sharing Eli. I speak 5 languages myself. I was born and raised in Myanmar and we spoke Burmese language at home. My maternal grandma was from the Mon ethnic group and only spoke Mon to me. I used to be able to speak it well as a child but now have trouble, even though I understand it. I lived in Thailand for 1.5 years and learned Thai as well. While there I lived with an ethnic minority also from Myanmar called Kayin and learned their language called Sgaw Kayin. I of course also speak English as I moved to the US in high school and have lived here ever since. My good friend from high school was from Ukraine but her mother was from Kazan so they also spoke Russian and Tatar. She used to visit in the summer and bring back gifts from Tatarstan.
It is great you have decided to preserve your own Tatar traditions and the beautiful Tatar language! ❤🤗🇷🇺 I hear, learning a foreign language is akin to acquiring a new soul, even a new personality for some people. I have noticed this on my own self when I practise different languages.
Συμφωνώ. Both languages have a Grammar that is not too dissimilar, and both languages are constructed in a logical way. I have learned both as foreign languages.
La lingua italiana,oltre che nel Canton Ticino della Svizzera,è parlata anche nella Repubblica di San Marino,nello Stato Della Città Del Vaticano,a Malta ,in alcune località croate e slovene ed è diffuso moltisimo in Argentina,in Albania, in Corsica e si parla ancora in alcune località dell'Etiopia,dell'Eritrea e della Libia. La lingua italiana è la quarta lingua più studiata nel mondo (addirittura prima della lingua francese,che è la quinta lingua più studiata nel mondo).
Eli you are better at honouring your Tartar culture than me with Scottish Gaelic. In Wales people keep their language alive, which is very similar to Brittonic, the language of the Ancient Britons. It's amazing to speak five languages. I used to speak Italian and fell in love in Italy and with the whole country. I loved Tivoli and Rome but then I focused on Spanish and that's my second language. I didn't use my Italian so forgot it, although I understood what you were saying. I used to speak Portuguese too and feel in love with Lisboa and the surrounding countryside but again I let that language go but still listen to Fado. Also let my Mandarin (my Manarin, which was rubbish, never really grasped it, loved writing the characters and various sentences, but like you say, if you don't keep practising, you lose the language, spoken or written!) go too! I'd like to resurrect my French though. That's my goal at the moment. I love Brittany and Finisterre, as well as Le Mont Saint Michel. What a lovely vodcast. Really enjoyed listening to you speaking in your five languages, including Tartar! Also enjoy hearing about your passion for Swahili. Thank you so much. 🙏😀
During the Second World War my grandfathers younger brother and sister were deported to near Perm. After the attack of the Germans they were released from the work camps. They both were taught the Tatar language at the local schools. When they returned to Poland they would use it as their secret language. Every language has unique features that do not readily translate. I think it’s beautiful you know 5. I recall a old Czech saying “learn a new language earn a new soul”. I think this saying captures the essence of learning a new language and it’s unique ways of seeing the world. And please never loose your Tatar language ❤

Does anyone think it's weird how she just showed up from Africa without mentioning the trip? How does she keep smiling while her country rapes and murders thousands of civilians next door? That is the only topic any Ruzzian should be talking about now
Я казашка по национальности, родилась, выросла и живу в России. Я знаю только русский язык, но также я хочу выучить свой родной язык - казахский, хочу читать, писать и разговаривать на нем ( Иншалла). Также я мечтаю выучить японский язык ( Иншалла),потому что мне нравится Япония и японская культура и сам язык очень красивый для меня, и еще я фанатка аниме и манги. Мне нравятся, как звучат японский, казахский, турецкий, татарский и другие тюркские языки.
Hi Eli! I was born in Canada and my first language is French. France used to have a large colony in North America called “Nouvelle France”, but the colony was lost in one of the British wars of conquest. French is still spoken, and even used as the main language, in some parts of what is now Canada. By the way, you speak French surprisingly well for a girl who has not spoken the language in many years. I also speak English, but I am not as gifted as you are for learning languages.
Have you ever lied, stolen, used God's name in vain, looked wuth lust? if so you need to repent today and Believe in Jesus Christ to save you from Hell and go to heaven instead
Eli, here in South Africa we also learn to speak English from the first years in school. My mother language is Afrikaans. Most South Africans can speak at least two languages. 🇿🇦♥️
Hello. I am from Iran and I speak Azeri. I must say I was quite surprised that I understood most of what you said in Tatar. I think Tatar and Azeri are the most similar of all Turkic languages.
Eli, you will surprise yourself. You never fully forget anything you learn. If you were in a situation where you needed to recall language you would. As a student and a teacher I have discovered that after learning some university level maths and not using it for twenty years I was able to quickly relearn it when a student asked me how to do that maths. You have not forgotten those two languages, if you need to recall them they will come to mind easily.
I am from Uganda and I speak Luganda, English, and some Spanish. I would like to learn all of the world's languages so that I can be able to communicate with anybody on this planet. It's fascinating that you can speak all of those languages and you sound very fluent. No wonder you teach others how to speak Russian. I would love to learn Russian. It sounds fascinating. I also would like to learn German, French, Chinese, Japanese, and some other African languages like Yoruba, Ndebele, Xhosa, Zulu. Like I said, I want to learn all of the languages there is in the world.
I'm fluent, more or less, in six langauges: Swedish (mother tongue), English (practically bilingual), French (very good), German (I understand it fairly well but not too assured about speaking it -. should brush up on the grammar and stuff), Danish and Norwegian (the last two are cognates of Swedish and there's a high degree of mutual intelligiblity). Working to add Russian as a seventh! :) When I was in my teens I wanted to learn Latin as well, but never really had the opportunity....

I just watched your video and you are very talented. The more languages you speak, the more intelligent and wise you become. However, listening to you speaking Russian made the language so beautiful. Your experience with English reminded me of myself when I wanted to learn Russian so that I could read the great Russian literature in Russian. Since I didn't live in a Rusdian speaking milieu, I forgot everything I learned. Now, I need to go back and learn Russian. Thank you again for all your insightful videos.
Russian can sound harsh haha. But so can Dutch. Or German. Any language can sound harsh. I have learned that it is one of the most beautiful languages. When spoken softly it sounds like a language of love. How beautiful is the sound of the word ''Lyubov''''. Very musical too. I like some Russian singers, and they sound magical to me. They're always in my playlists.
As Italian, I believe Russian is an extremely sweet and pleasant language if spoken by you! Also, thanks for the nice words spent about us, we also love Russian girls and women ))
I decided to take IELTS exam 2,5 years ago and started to look for videos on TH-cam. I stumble upon a ginger Russian girl's TH-cam channel which had 3 thousand subscriber or so. Wowww, I hadn't realized you reached nearly 400,000 subs. now 😯👏🏻💐 I guess you removed those videos about IELTS but it was interesting to watch your journey from those videos to Vietnam and Italy, Africa 👌🏻 Keep it up!
I have been start learning Russian language from recently👌, and you speak both Russian and English in a good accent . You are doing well ,all the best 👍
Thank you. I am Diane from Arizona USA. I knew nothing about Russia until I started watching your blog. What a country. I don't want to know about the crime and negative stories. I want exactly what you are sharing. Stories about the normal.
Hi Eli, I too speak 5 languages, and I can relate to the idea of fully comprehending a language but not being fully proficient speaking it because of lack of everyday practice. It is difficult to keep up with all 5 of them, but I try. I enjoy watching your travels and the content of your vlogs. Do not delay your trip to Paris! 😊
don't worry your english is really good..its clear and understandable..forget the perfect grammar as long you can express ourself...im Romeo from the Philippines!
Priviet Eli. I really enjoyed this video and the content you always share overall. I totally related to you when it comes to ethnic minority languages. I grew up in a place where we have an ethnic language (Basque) but unfortunately I was much more exposed to the "stronger" languages that are also spoken there (French & Spanish). As a consequence, as a child / teenager I was not interested in practising a language that is spoken in just a small area and and for this reason, I decided to learn other foreign languages and traveling abroad instead. Later, I realised how valuable and beautiful minority languages are and I totally reconnected with the Basque language. Nowadays, I try to use it as much as I can and I am a strong defender of minority languages and endangered languages. Also, I really hope to learn Russian someday, it is such a rich language :)
Hello Eli! I am Italian and I speak two languages: English and French. Being from a valley, Susa Valley, which is very close to France, I have the chance to go to France very often and moreover the dialect of my valley, Provençal Franc, has many similarities with French. My grandmother was from Haute Maurienne, not far from the Italian border, so I love French and the French in general. I love foreign languages but Russian is so difficult, the alphabeth is completely different from ours. Anyway you are very skilled and your Italian is really good. Thank you for this beautiful video.
@@dreamthedream8929 one Charles 10, duke of Burgundy, took his "court" and established himself on the Atlantic side, because of bad relations with the king of France. That was at a time when Burgundy was an independent country, like Lichtenstein, Luxembourg, San Marino today. France is the last empire on which the sun never goes to sleep.
I am impressed and I congratulate you! I am French and I must say that your level is impressive in just 4 years of learning. I'm starting to learn Russian and I would like to be as knowledgeable as you. I discovered your videos and I love what you offer.
Your accent is like a melody that fills my ears with joy. It is like a song that I never want to end. Your voice has a rhythm that makes my heart beat faster. Your accent is beautiful, and so are you. ❤❤❤
Для меня, как чеха, русский язык не является так сложным, только я его так долго не учусь и ещё не знаю как говорить так, чтоб я звучал естественно. Азбуку я выучил за неделю, грамматика мне кажется более лёгкой чем чешская грамматика и верю, что спустя несколько лет улучшусь.
As an American, who has Immersed himself in Russian Literature, I had one misconception about Russian Tatars, I thought they never smiled. Eli's proved that wrong.
If l had the chance to know my grandfather who was from Kislavodsk, Russian could have become my Fifth language. I speak Turkish, armenian, French and English. You’re doing a great job. Thank you.
Are you kidding? You speak Italian better than me... and I was raised by Italian parents😂. I was born in Canada but both parents were born and raised in Italy and came here in the early 1960s. You are so accomplished in all 5 languages. Auguri!
It takes very great intelligence to do that. Something native English speakers take for granted when they accuse people of speaking English with an accent.
sono italiano, è ho sentito che vuoi migliorare e parlare meglio la nostra lingua, come italiano sono onorato che ti piace l'Italia e l'italiano. Grazie a te e ai tuoi video sto imparando a conoscere la Russia, questa grande e bellissima nazione. Inoltre anche grazie ai tuoi commenti in inglese, cerco di ricordare e migliorare il mio inglese. Spero un giorno di venire a visitare la Russia.
Ho risentito più volte, ho ascoltato e riascoltato altrettante volte decine di lingue e dialetti del mondo, alla ricerca di una lingua più bella della mia, una lingua che mi affascinasse, che mi convincesse a preferirla alla mia. No, nessuna mi ha convinto e non mi ci provo neanche a studiarne una, anche perché non ne ho bisogno, per fortuna. Leggo "L'infinito" di Leopardi, lo recito, in italiano e, ancor oggi, a settant'anni suonati, provo una fortissima emozione. Seguo i tuoi bellissimi cortometraggi e, sinceramente, ti preferisco quando parli in russo e non in inglese. Brava, continua così.
For some reason, I've always struggled with the correct way to pronounce the word "Tatar", but after hearing you say it using the actual Tatar pronunciation, it just sounds right. It seems that the stress should be slightly more on the second syllable rather than the first, and it rolls off the tongue more naturally that way. I envy your ability to speak and converse in a number of languages, as that provides you a window into other cultures and the larger world. As a Texan, Spanish is the language I hear the most after English, and even after taking classes for it in grade school, I've never used Spanish enough to be truly fluent in the language - I can follow along to a limited extent, but that's about it. Funny thing is, I can read Spanish-language newspapers and websites pretty well. Your English really is very good. The occasional mispronunciations or grammar issues don't cause me any difficulty in following what you're saying, and sometimes it provides an insight into how a Russian-speaking person may think about how language works, and that's kind of cool. Anyway, this was a fun and informative video - thanks!
Well manage of these languages (especially foreign one) shows how much effort you've work on 👍👍👍 When first watching your video, it's really surprising that finding a Russian TH-camr introduce your country and culture in English. It's so friendly for ppl like me don't understand Russian. Your videos are with nice pace and great content that really shows us the beauty of Russia and your travels to many places. They also show us you're not just only a teacher to the audience but also still learning in many ways and the positive attitude is quite encouraging. :)
You're amazing! I'm trying to learn Russian and finding it a challenge. I also took 2 years of Spanish in high school and can't remember hardly any of it. Keep up the great work on your content!

Hoi Eli ! When you speak English its great. In movies when actors speak Russian, I love it. Russian and Italian are the 2 languages I would I could speak them. You are a World traveler ! Its nice to hear you talking about everything. Greats , Kim 🇳🇱👩🏽🦰 from the Netherlands.
She's already back from Africa? Or does everyone now realize she was running old videos to help the Ruzzian propaganda like they are just normal people traveling the world while their country commits genocide?
I really love the original Russian accent, when they speak foreign languages it's like music to my ears. A Russian friend had to endure months of speaking lessons to get rid of her Russian accent, she is now a radio presenter here in Germany.
I am from India and speak Hindi. But, I have ALWAYS been fascinated by Russia, its history and language. I started learning Russian but couldn't devote required time for it. I'll definitely learn it one day and also visit 🇷🇺. Its one of the life goals for me! Love from India ! 🇮🇳
As a languages enthusiast I LOVED this video. I am spanish so my native language is Spanish. At school we learn English and I can understand and speak it almost perfectly. At highschool I took 3 years of French until level B1 or so but I never practiced again and I forgot it :((( but I plan to re-learn it! Right now I am learning German, which I can speak pretty good, and your beautiful language, Русский язык. I also started Italian in Duolingo and, being a native spanish speaker, Italian is pretty easy because it is very similar. In the future I would like to learn Arabic, and other languages as well but I don't know which yet. I reaaaally enjoyed your video, I was able to understand most of what you said and spot the differences between what you were saying and the subtitles (except for Tatar) :)))) This is the first time I comment on one of your videos so I guess it is time to say how much I love them! I love discovering cultures, specially those from the countries whose language I'm learning. And the videos where you speak to Russians are super helpful to practice my hearing

I have been learning Russian since I was 14 years old, I am 49 now. My Russian is so bad, but I got lots of practice with a Russian girlfriend from Bishkek. I was born in Brazil so my native language is Portuguese. I learned English and French in school, then learned Spanish when I moved to Miami. Now I also speak Korean because I married a Korean woman and moved to Korea. Although I never learned it, I can also speak Italian too, Latin languages are so close to each other 😂 I love being multilingual! Пока!
Its really wonderful you can speak 5 languages, Eli. You're awesome. I salute anyone who can speak more than 1 language. I love and admire you, Eli. Your a real inspiration to me and to many other people. I only speak English, some French very little Hindi. I would like to brush up on my French and learn to speak Spanish, Russian, Arabic and Chinese.
Q: What do you call a person who can speak more than one language? A: A polyglot. Q: What do you call a person who only speaks one language? A. An American!
To me Russian sounds like a language for a bed time story for children, it's very soft and gentle. 🧸📚 I'm from Croatia, so also Slavic, but my language doesn't sound similar to yours, at least to me. When I visited UK, some people asked us if we were Russian.
This is impressive. All the more so since it sounds like you are recording this live in the studio without a rehearsal! My late stepmother was fluent in Russian and loved the Russian culture. She translated the letters of American soldiers who were part of the Western countries invasion of Russia after World War I.
Hola Eli, si te gusta mucho el lenguaje Italiano, Casate con un Italiano , tendrias unos hijos Preciosos. Saludos Eli, lo mejor para ti , para Rusia y para los Rusos.
Tatar is Turkish to my ears hahah wow! I didn't see that coming. That's fascinating! The use of words and the meaning are the same in Tarar and Turkish, same pronunciation even.
I didn‘t know that Tatar and Turkish were so much alike as to be able to understand each other. Girl, you‘ve got quite a few languages under your belt already, this is as impressive as the whole amount of experiences you boast… I have lived abroad most of my life too and speak Catalan, Spanish, English, French, Italian and German. The latter I still struggle with, so it’s a bit of a personal challenge really haha. All I need is to get myself immersed into a social environment and practice conversation, as I already understand much. Who knows, maybe when I’m done with German I might want to start with Russian, just to be able to read Dostoyevski in the original language. As you put it, that may be worth the effort…
Hi. I love the way you sound when you speak Russian. The language has a deep, rich and very beautiful sound. I wish you'd speak Russian all the time in your videos; though I realise it might not be the best thing for the health of your channel. With subtitles. I did study Russian for a while, but I've forgotten it....
Sono italiano e da tanto tempo cerco di imparare il russo, non solo perché il suono stesso di ogni lingua straniera mi affascina e mi piace, ci tengo a ribadire: di qualunque lingua straniera! Ma anche perché sono certo che conoscere il russo apra le porte ad un mondo di bellezza, sottostimato dai più ma soprattutto sconfinato! E complimenti per il tuo italiano, e certamente, il tuo italiano è molto migliore del mio russo ))
I am Brazilian, I speak Portuguese and English, I am learning Russian, Serbian and Ossetian but I also want to learn Italian, Sanskrit and Kannada. Russian is an beatiful and amazing language
If you learn Serbian you can basically speak Croatian, Bosnian or Montenegrin and perharps the other further from the Serbo-Croatian languages like Slovenian or Bulgarian and Macedonian.
Wow, it was super cool to hear you speak Tatar ! I definitely can hear some words that sound like Turkish, the Turkic language i'm most familiar with. Haha Aw ! Keep practicing Tatar for your mama, Elina !
This video makes me want to dive back into learning Russian again, i've been distracted for awhile and i got to get back to learning it! My main language now is English, but being born in Russia and then adopted to the USA i have always wanted to come back to my homeland where the journey began and be among my people. Your english is very well, you can use the word high to describe your feelings of elation and joy in something. You know your stuff and you've used it well Eli. I hope one day i can be fluent enough to be able to visit Russia and hopefully see you in all your Tartar glory haha.
Your knowledge of and speaking of English is great. I have two "adopted" granddaughters from Kazakhstan who use Russian as their native language. Now the younger one, Lera is in the US and working in Seattle after getting her Masters degree in Cedar City, UT and the older is in Mexico City learning her 3'rd language of Spanish. Your English is great but you do still have a noticeable accent. The younger granddaughter in Seattle has very little accent left and the older one in Mexico speaks English very well also while also learning her Spanish.
I am now older. My father told me his journalist grandfather could speak seven languages. He travelled in your country in the time of the Czar. In the area of Australia where I live there was much immigration from Italy so when growing up you could hear Italian being spoken regularly. Today you hardly hear it at all, lost to the younger generation . And of course us Australians have are own way of speaking English but it has become heavily influenced by the American version. Your channel was one of the first I came to learning about you and your country, pre the present situation. To my ear your language does sound slightly aggressive. My grandparents and father were immigrants to Australia, I was surprised when I visited Scotland that I picked up on some Gaelic words. We supposedly learnt French at school, when in France I realised what was learnt was not a great help. You will love Paris if and when you get there. My wife and I visited a number of years ago. It is a most beautiful city. You speak English very well.
I love the Russian language so much.😍😍😍 I think that it's so beautiful and I would really like to be able to speak it one day.. If you think Russian is hard, you should try Arabic 😂😂😂😂

Almost forgot - in Serbia there is a saying: how many languages you speak, that's how many people you're worth.
I have heard this from a Romanian inhabitant of Transylvania! That sounds so great! And I believe it can be true, as if you learn a foreign language, you can better understand the feelings of the native speakers of this language!
As Eli said in this video, she translates "sayings" or thoughts she has in Russian into English or something else.
It is very true that without exercise we forget the languages we have learned.
Thank you for your insight!!! It's important for countries were they speak more than one language, around the world!
How many languge u speak
@@正义-b6v I’m assuming at least two since they were able to write in English and are probably from Serbia
Same in Turkish as well, we say "one language one person, two languages two persons"
Vlada, That's nice to hear and makes me happy. Because after the age of 60 I began studying more than 25 languages. :-D For example, Hungarian, Bulgarian, Polish, Albanian, Yakut, Italian, Spanish, Romanian, etc. etc. All through internet resources. And I recently began learning Ukrainian too. Obviously very little of each language. It takes more time and effort to get advanced than I have available. And Arabic and Tigrinya are too difficult for me without a teacher, but I'm trying. ;-) Indo-european languages are much easier.
Before 60 (I'm 75 now) I could only speak Swedish (my only native language), English, Japanese, German, Russian and very little Bosnian/SerboCroat. Vrlo malo. Zaboravio sam mnogo. ;-)
I think it is important to be able to understand at least a little in many languages, and above all, understand about them and how they are related or not related. To see and enjoy the similarities and differences. Not ridicule other languages or dialects; they don't sound "funny". Every language and every dialect is optimal and super-best for the individual speaker of it.

My 10 year old son loves Russian alphabet since he was 4 (he is in the autism spectrum, so he tends to focus on things he likes🤗 and Russian alphabet is one of the languages he loves). He learned it from TH-cam and has been fascinated with the sound and the way it's written. So I learn it through him🥰🥰 And since he is expose to Tagalog, Ilonggo (These are Philippines main language and my dialect), Spanish and English he is also exposing himself to Turkish, Arabic, and Russian. And that's why he amazes everytime. And you amaze me by showing us around Russia🥰🥰🥰🥰

As Italian, I am very happy and proud you decided to learn Italian: with you all the best!
Привет из России, с удовольствием слушаю старые итальянские песни в исполнении Адриано Челентано и Тото Кутуньо.
Мой родной язык немецкий, а я изучаю русский язык с начала 2021 года. Раньше я думал, что русский звучит очень агрессивно, но чем больше я учусь, тем мягче звучит для меня язык. Мягкие согласные звучат сладко для меня :)
Hi, I'm a native speaker and I can help you learn the language
Die Deutsch sprache ist kompliziert fur mich nach englisch)
Any particular reason why you started learning Russian? Impressive very impressive achievement i have to say!
Тоже самое некоторые думают про немецкий. Но когда начинают изучать, то понимают что это не так.
Молодец что учишь русский. В школе выбор был между английским и немецким языком. Выбрал немецкий , потому что мать знала немецкий. Сейчас познания в английском чуть больше , чем в немецком😊
Hello from Turkey 🇹🇷! Your Tatar is great! Being able to understand you when you weren't speaking English felt oddly satisfying lol!
Я Французский, также изучаю русский язык в течение 5 лет, я хотел поехать в Россию только с любовью моей жизни. В сентябре я поехал в Новосибирск, чтобы встретиться со своим другом по переписке. Это было потрясающе в течение 3 недель, как в кино. К сожалению, мне пришлось уехать из-за мобилизации. И отношения на расстоянии между нами не сложились. Я действительно рад, что ты решила изучать французский. Италия и Франция - действительно две страны, которые россияне ценят больше всего. Я надеюсь, что однажды ты приедешь во Францию !
Apparently, Russians do value France which is why they now want to invade it. At least that would make learning the language easier
I think the Russian language sounds beautiful and expressive. No harsh. Any language can be harsh if someone speaks it harshly :)

I am from The Czech Republic. To be able speaking in 5 languages is amazing! For me Russian is a nice language. I learnt it for 3 years more than 30 years ago when I was on the elementary school. Because Czech is slavic language as Russian (and I was young boy) it wasn’t difficult. But because of cyrillic reading and writing wasn’t so easy. After that I learnt German for several years and I don’t like this language and I forgot it completely. And I started learning English when I was nearly 30.
🔝🔝
I *Love* the Czech Language!! 😍😍 But it is difficult as hell LOL
Why?

As for mixing Russian and Tatar, it's a similar situation in southwest USA. People mix English and Spanish a lot. We call it 'Spanglish.' You can also sometimes see people having a conversation with one speaking Spanish, and the other English.
Eli, you've inspired me to try learning Russian. So far, I'm struggling because the letters look like Latin letters but sound different. But, I'll get it. I've learned Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Spanish, with some Scottish Gaelic, Swedish, and Greek.
I loved your language skills, especially speaking Tatar. I can also understand you when you are speaking your native language Tatar. I hope one day I can visit Tatarstan to see my Turkic relatives and how they live in Russia. Keep your self, Eli.
Your english is great! You are accurate and your pronunciación and intonation are superb!
Thanks for sharing Eli. I speak 5 languages myself. I was born and raised in Myanmar and we spoke Burmese language at home. My maternal grandma was from the Mon ethnic group and only spoke Mon to me. I used to be able to speak it well as a child but now have trouble, even though I understand it. I lived in Thailand for 1.5 years and learned Thai as well. While there I lived with an ethnic minority also from Myanmar called Kayin and learned their language called Sgaw Kayin. I of course also speak English as I moved to the US in high school and have lived here ever since. My good friend from high school was from Ukraine but her mother was from Kazan so they also spoke Russian and Tatar. She used to visit in the summer and bring back gifts from Tatarstan.
It is great you have decided to preserve your own Tatar traditions and the beautiful Tatar language! ❤🤗🇷🇺 I hear, learning a foreign language is akin to acquiring a new soul, even a new personality for some people. I have noticed this on my own self when I practise different languages.
Oh, and I think Italian is the most beautiful sounding language. It just flows like a gentle stream.
Wow , your Italian is pretty good, I even like your accent, it’s relaxing , makes me chill . Bravissima
I am currently learning Russian, you will be surprised when you realize how many similarities there are between Greek and Russian!
very interesting!
Some russian words and in other slavic languages came from greek through orthodox church.
Συμφωνώ. Both languages have a Grammar that is not too dissimilar, and both languages are constructed in a logical way. I have learned both as foreign languages.

@Italian lifestyle, that language improvement commentary was a clear statement 😄👍
La lingua italiana,oltre che nel Canton Ticino della Svizzera,è parlata anche nella Repubblica di San Marino,nello Stato Della Città Del Vaticano,a Malta ,in alcune località croate e slovene ed è diffuso moltisimo in Argentina,in Albania, in Corsica e si parla ancora in alcune località dell'Etiopia,dell'Eritrea e della Libia. La lingua italiana è la quarta lingua più studiata nel mondo (addirittura prima della lingua francese,che è la quinta lingua più studiata nel mondo).
Eli you are better at honouring your Tartar culture than me with Scottish Gaelic. In Wales people keep their language alive, which is very similar to Brittonic, the language of the Ancient Britons. It's amazing to speak five languages. I used to speak Italian and fell in love in Italy and with the whole country. I loved Tivoli and Rome but then I focused on Spanish and that's my second language. I didn't use my Italian so forgot it, although I understood what you were saying. I used to speak Portuguese too and feel in love with Lisboa and the surrounding countryside but again I let that language go but still listen to Fado. Also let my Mandarin (my Manarin, which was rubbish, never really grasped it, loved writing the characters and various sentences, but like you say, if you don't keep practising, you lose the language, spoken or written!) go too! I'd like to resurrect my French though. That's my goal at the moment. I love Brittany and Finisterre, as well as Le Mont Saint Michel. What a lovely vodcast. Really enjoyed listening to you speaking in your five languages, including Tartar! Also enjoy hearing about your passion for Swahili. Thank you so much. 🙏😀
During the Second World War my grandfathers younger brother and sister were deported to near Perm. After the attack of the Germans they were released from the work camps. They both were taught the Tatar language at the local schools. When they returned to Poland they would use it as their secret language. Every language has unique features that do not readily translate. I think it’s beautiful you know 5. I recall a old Czech saying “learn a new language earn a new soul”. I think this saying captures the essence of learning a new language and it’s unique ways of seeing the world. And please never loose your Tatar language ❤

Hi Eli! I was born in Canada and my first language is French. France used to have a large colony in North America called “Nouvelle France”, but the colony was lost in one of the British wars of conquest. French is still spoken, and even used as the main language, in some parts of what is now Canada. By the way, you speak French surprisingly well for a girl who has not spoken the language in many years. I also speak English, but I am not as gifted as you are for learning languages.
Hello to France. Bravo pour votre commentaire.

Learning languages expands your perception of world and reality.
Hello. I am from Iran and I speak Azeri. I must say I was quite surprised that I understood most of what you said in Tatar. I think Tatar and Azeri are the most similar of all Turkic languages.
Eli, you will surprise yourself. You never fully forget anything you learn. If you were in a situation where you needed to recall language you would. As a student and a teacher I have discovered that after learning some university level maths and not using it for twenty years I was able to quickly relearn it when a student asked me how to do that maths.
You have not forgotten those two languages, if you need to recall them they will come to mind easily.
I am from Uganda and I speak Luganda, English, and some Spanish. I would like to learn all of the world's languages so that I can be able to communicate with anybody on this planet. It's fascinating that you can speak all of those languages and you sound very fluent. No wonder you teach others how to speak Russian. I would love to learn Russian. It sounds fascinating. I also would like to learn German, French, Chinese, Japanese, and some other African languages like Yoruba, Ndebele, Xhosa, Zulu. Like I said, I want to learn all of the languages there is in the world.
I'm fluent, more or less, in six langauges: Swedish (mother tongue), English (practically bilingual), French (very good), German (I understand it fairly well but not too assured about speaking it -. should brush up on the grammar and stuff), Danish and Norwegian (the last two are cognates of Swedish and there's a high degree of mutual intelligiblity). Working to add Russian as a seventh! :) When I was in my teens I wanted to learn Latin as well, but never really had the opportunity....

I just watched your video and you are very talented. The more languages you speak, the more intelligent and wise you become. However, listening to you speaking Russian made the language so beautiful. Your experience with English reminded me of myself when I wanted to learn Russian so that I could read the great Russian literature in Russian. Since I didn't live in a Rusdian speaking milieu, I forgot everything I learned. Now, I need to go back and learn Russian. Thank you again for all your insightful videos.
Russian can sound harsh haha. But so can Dutch. Or German. Any language can sound harsh.
I have learned that it is one of the most beautiful languages. When spoken softly it sounds like a language of love.

Hi Eli,
I too speak 5 languages, and I can relate to the idea of fully comprehending a language but not being fully proficient speaking it because of lack of everyday practice. It is difficult to keep up with all 5 of them, but I try. I enjoy watching your travels and the content of your vlogs. Do not delay your trip to Paris! 😊
don't worry your english is really good..its clear and understandable..forget the perfect grammar as long you can express ourself...im Romeo from the Philippines!
Priviet Eli. I really enjoyed this video and the content you always share overall. I totally related to you when it comes to ethnic minority languages. I grew up in a place where we have an ethnic language (Basque) but unfortunately I was much more exposed to the "stronger" languages that are also spoken there (French & Spanish). As a consequence, as a child / teenager I was not interested in practising a language that is spoken in just a small area and and for this reason, I decided to learn other foreign languages and traveling abroad instead. Later, I realised how valuable and beautiful minority languages are and I totally reconnected with the Basque language. Nowadays, I try to use it as much as I can and I am a strong defender of minority languages and endangered languages.
Also, I really hope to learn Russian someday, it is such a rich language :)
Wow. Now I know you are not only beautiful, but you are a genius as well. Nothing impresses me more than someone who speaks multiple languages.
Hello Eli! I am Italian and I speak two languages: English and French. Being from a valley, Susa Valley, which is very close to France, I have the chance to go to France very often and moreover the dialect of my valley, Provençal Franc, has many similarities with French. My grandmother was from Haute Maurienne, not far from the Italian border, so I love French and the French in general. I love foreign languages but Russian is so difficult, the alphabeth is completely different from ours. Anyway you are very skilled and your Italian is really good. Thank you for this beautiful video.

I am always amazed at how well some people can speak so many languages so fluently.
It takes very great intelligence to do that. Something native English speakers take for granted when they accuse people of speaking English with an accent.
sono italiano, è ho sentito che vuoi migliorare e parlare meglio la nostra lingua, come italiano sono onorato che ti piace l'Italia e l'italiano. Grazie a te e ai tuoi video sto imparando a conoscere la Russia, questa grande e bellissima nazione. Inoltre anche grazie ai tuoi commenti in inglese, cerco di ricordare e migliorare il mio inglese. Spero un giorno di venire a visitare la Russia.
C'est parfait, ton niveau de français est nickel :)
Ho risentito più volte, ho ascoltato e riascoltato altrettante volte decine di lingue e dialetti del mondo, alla ricerca di una lingua più bella della mia, una lingua che mi affascinasse, che mi convincesse a preferirla alla mia. No, nessuna mi ha convinto e non mi ci provo neanche a studiarne una, anche perché non ne ho bisogno, per fortuna. Leggo "L'infinito" di Leopardi, lo recito, in italiano e, ancor oggi, a settant'anni suonati, provo una fortissima emozione. Seguo i tuoi bellissimi cortometraggi e, sinceramente, ti preferisco quando parli in russo e non in inglese. Brava, continua così.
For some reason, I've always struggled with the correct way to pronounce the word "Tatar", but after hearing you say it using the actual Tatar pronunciation, it just sounds right. It seems that the stress should be slightly more on the second syllable rather than the first, and it rolls off the tongue more naturally that way.
I envy your ability to speak and converse in a number of languages, as that provides you a window into other cultures and the larger world. As a Texan, Spanish is the language I hear the most after English, and even after taking classes for it in grade school, I've never used Spanish enough to be truly fluent in the language - I can follow along to a limited extent, but that's about it. Funny thing is, I can read Spanish-language newspapers and websites pretty well.
Your English really is very good. The occasional mispronunciations or grammar issues don't cause me any difficulty in following what you're saying, and sometimes it provides an insight into how a Russian-speaking person may think about how language works, and that's kind of cool.
Anyway, this was a fun and informative video - thanks!
Chère Éli, votre français est impeccable.
Well manage of these languages (especially foreign one) shows how much effort you've work on 👍👍👍
When first watching your video, it's really surprising that finding a Russian TH-camr introduce your country and culture in English. It's so friendly for ppl like me don't understand Russian.
Your videos are with nice pace and great content that really shows us the beauty of Russia and your travels to many places. They also show us you're not just only a teacher to the audience but also still learning in many ways and the positive attitude is quite encouraging. :)

As a languages enthusiast I LOVED this video. I am spanish so my native language is Spanish. At school we learn English and I can understand and speak it almost perfectly. At highschool I took 3 years of French until level B1 or so but I never practiced again and I forgot it :((( but I plan to re-learn it! Right now I am learning German, which I can speak pretty good, and your beautiful language, Русский язык. I also started Italian in Duolingo and, being a native spanish speaker, Italian is pretty easy because it is very similar. In the future I would like to learn Arabic, and other languages as well but I don't know which yet.
I reaaaally enjoyed your video, I was able to understand most of what you said and spot the differences between what you were saying and the subtitles (except for Tatar) :))))
This is the first time I comment on one of your videos so I guess it is time to say how much I love them! I love discovering cultures, specially those from the countries whose language I'm learning. And the videos where you speak to Russians are super helpful to practice my hearing

I have been learning Russian since I was 14 years old, I am 49 now. My Russian is so bad, but I got lots of practice with a Russian girlfriend from Bishkek. I was born in Brazil so my native language is Portuguese. I learned English and French in school, then learned Spanish when I moved to Miami. Now I also speak Korean because I married a Korean woman and moved to Korea. Although I never learned it, I can also speak Italian too, Latin languages are so close to each other 😂 I love being multilingual! Пока!
Its really wonderful you can speak 5 languages, Eli. You're awesome. I salute anyone who can speak more than 1 language. I love and admire you, Eli. Your a real inspiration to me and to many other people. I only speak English, some French very little Hindi. I would like to brush up on my French and learn to speak Spanish, Russian, Arabic and Chinese.

Comment est-ce que tu sais que je parle seulement une langue? Wie weißt du, daß ich nur eine Sprache kann?
@@bigscarysteve a polyglot is a person who can understand five languages,
@@gm6635 Well golly gee, thanks for enlightening me on when it was that we get to "many"!
To me Russian sounds like a language for a bed time story for children, it's very soft and gentle. 🧸📚
I'm from Croatia, so also Slavic, but my language doesn't sound similar to yours, at least to me. When I visited UK, some people asked us if we were Russian.
This is impressive. All the more so since it sounds like you are recording this live in the studio without a rehearsal!
My late stepmother was fluent in Russian and loved the Russian culture. She translated the letters of American soldiers who were part of the Western countries invasion of Russia after World War I.
I'm from Brazil and I speak Brazilian Portuguese and American English. I love Russia, its language, its culture and its women.
Hola Eli, si te gusta mucho el lenguaje Italiano, Casate con un Italiano , tendrias
unos hijos Preciosos. Saludos Eli, lo mejor para ti , para Rusia y para los Rusos.
Tatar is Turkish to my ears hahah wow! I didn't see that coming. That's fascinating! The use of words and the meaning are the same in Tarar and Turkish, same pronunciation even.
I didn‘t know that Tatar and Turkish were so much alike as to be able to understand each other. Girl, you‘ve got quite a few languages under your belt already, this is as impressive as the whole amount of experiences you boast…
I have lived abroad most of my life too and speak Catalan, Spanish, English, French, Italian and German. The latter I still struggle with, so it’s a bit of a personal challenge really haha. All I need is to get myself immersed into a social environment and practice conversation, as I already understand much. Who knows, maybe when I’m done with German I might want to start with Russian, just to be able to read Dostoyevski in the original language. As you put it, that may be worth the effort…
You speak such a perfect French, your pronounciation is very authentic! If you need a guide when in Paris, don't hesitate💫💫
Hi. I love the way you sound when you speak Russian. The language has a deep, rich and very beautiful sound. I wish you'd speak Russian all the time in your videos; though I realise it might not be the best thing for the health of your channel. With subtitles. I did study Russian for a while, but I've forgotten it....
Amazing as usual . . . such a breath of fresh air . . . keep the world's hope alive. Cheers.
Sono italiano e da tanto tempo cerco di imparare il russo, non solo perché il suono stesso di ogni lingua straniera mi affascina e mi piace, ci tengo a ribadire: di qualunque lingua straniera! Ma anche perché sono certo che conoscere il russo apra le porte ad un mondo di bellezza, sottostimato dai più ma soprattutto sconfinato!
E complimenti per il tuo italiano, e certamente, il tuo italiano è molto migliore del mio russo ))
У тебя все получиться, верь в себя😊
Aloha so many languages make a better bridge to peace
That we may enjoy
Oneanother ..your italian is very nice
Gracias
I am Brazilian, I speak Portuguese and English, I am learning Russian, Serbian and Ossetian but I also want to learn Italian, Sanskrit and Kannada. Russian is an beatiful and amazing language
If you learn Serbian you can basically speak Croatian, Bosnian or Montenegrin and perharps the other further from the Serbo-Croatian languages like Slovenian or Bulgarian and Macedonian.
You are so talented, by being able to speak five different languages, Eli!! Keep making your videos!! You're such an intelligent and beautiful woman!!
Wow, it was super cool to hear you speak Tatar !
I definitely can hear some words that sound like Turkish, the Turkic language i'm most familiar with.
Haha Aw ! Keep practicing Tatar for your mama, Elina !
You are such a linguist..I appreciate you so much....from the Philippines
This video makes me want to dive back into learning Russian again, i've been distracted for awhile and i got to get back to learning it! My main language now is English, but being born in Russia and then adopted to the USA i have always wanted to come back to my homeland where the journey began and be among my people. Your english is very well, you can use the word high to describe your feelings of elation and joy in something. You know your stuff and you've used it well Eli. I hope one day i can be fluent enough to be able to visit Russia and hopefully see you in all your Tartar glory haha.
Hi, I'm a native speaker and I can help you learn the language
@@ксюша-в6ь whats the catch?
@@piercehaugh1583 There is no catch
@@ксюша-в6ь are you sure?
@@piercehaugh1583 yeah
Your knowledge of and speaking of English is great. I have two "adopted" granddaughters from Kazakhstan who use Russian as their native language. Now the younger one, Lera is in the US and working in Seattle after getting her Masters degree in Cedar City, UT and the older is in Mexico City learning her 3'rd language of Spanish. Your English is great but you do still have a noticeable accent. The younger granddaughter in Seattle has very little accent left and the older one in Mexico speaks English very well also while also learning her Spanish.
Any language you speak, sounds good from you!
😂🫶🏻
Il tuo italiano è perfetto, e il tuo accento è bellissimo. Potrei ascoltarti per ore.
you are an impressive young lady 😊
I am now older. My father told me his journalist grandfather could speak seven languages. He travelled in your country in the time of the Czar. In the area of Australia where I live there was much immigration from Italy so when growing up you could hear Italian being spoken regularly. Today you hardly hear it at all, lost to the younger generation . And of course us Australians have are own way of speaking English but it has become heavily influenced by the American version. Your channel was one of the first I came to learning about you and your country, pre the present situation. To my ear your language does sound slightly aggressive.
My grandparents and father were immigrants to Australia, I was surprised when I visited Scotland that I picked up on some Gaelic words. We supposedly learnt French at school, when in France I realised what was learnt was not a great help.
You will love Paris if and when you get there. My wife and I visited a number of years ago. It is a most beautiful city.
You speak English very well.
I love the Russian language so much.😍😍😍 I think that it's so beautiful and I would really like to be able to speak it one day.. If you think Russian is hard, you should try Arabic 😂😂😂😂
Davvero bello sentirti parlare in italiano. Grazie.
