- Это наше совместное решение!
🇬🇧 Everyone has a friend like this: - Why the hell did you get in there?!

🔻Today is International Henpecked Day!

• C Днём Подкаблучника!
[ s dnyom pat-kab-luch-ni-ka]
Happy Henpecked Day!

🔻You will be surprised now, but 'каблуки' (heels) have absolutely nothing to do with the word 'подкаблучник' (henpecked man)!

🔻The etymology of this word goes back to those times when falconry was popular among the nobility throughout Russia. Before these beautiful birds were sent out to hunt, they were placed on a hand with a leather glove and a special leather helmet was put on their head: 'клобук' (a hood), which covered the eyes of the birds, protected them from external irritants and make them obedient.

🔻Well, let's look at this day with ease, humor and positivity.😉

❓Do you have anyone to congratulate on this Day?

Всем доброго утра! Some grammar instead of morning coffee☕️😉?

• Опаздывать (imperf.)
  [a-paz-dy-vat']
=
• Опоздать (perf.)
  [a-paz-dat']
  To be late (for/to)
❗Mind the difference in spelling (-а-, -о-)

🔻Prepositions 'на' and 'в' (+ accusative case) are used with the verb 'опаздывать' but their usage depends.

🔻We use 'в' when referring to more general concepts like school or university:

• Я опаздываю в школу.
  [ya a-paz-dy-va-yu f shko-lu]
  I am late for school.

🔻We use 'на' when referring to a specific place or event, like work or a meeting:

(See the video)
- Почему ты опоздал на встречу?
- Ты не поверишь!
[pa-chi-mu ty a-paz-dal na fstre-chu? ty ni pa-ve-rish]
- Why are you late for the meeting?
- You won't believe me!

Useful? ->❤

🎧🗣👇 Не опаздывайте!
