Шо, опять?!
What, again?!

🔻The tradition of celebrating the Old New Year exists not only in Russia. Similar holidays are celebrated in the countries of the former USSR, as well as in Greece, Serbia, Montenegro, Algeria, Tunisia, and many other countries.

🔻In all countries, the emergence of an unusual date is associated with the transition to different calendars, but each country has its own traditions.

🔻In German-speaking regions of Switzerland, for example, on January 13, they celebrate the old St. Sylvester's Day, dress up in fancy dress costumes, and congratulate each other on the New Year. In Macedonia, carnivals are held on New Year's Day according to the old calendar. An analogue of this holiday exists in Wales - the Hen Galan festival. It also marks the onset of the New Year according to the Julian calendar, and on this day children can carol- go from house to house and receive sweet gifts.

🥂🎄🎉Со Старым Новым годом, товарищи!

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has warned EU countries that they will have to learn how to speak Russian in 4-5 years if they do not significantly increase the amount of money that they spend on defense, which currently stands at 2% of GDP. He said this in his speech to the European Parliament in Brussels.

"If we do not do this, we will have to start studying Russian in 4-5 years or go to New Zealand," he said.

• (Врать) на голубом глазу
[vrat' na ga-lu-bom gla-zu]
SLT: (To lie) on a blue eye
Deliberately deceiving, with a straight face, the barefaced lie

🔻This phraseological unit (used as an adverb phrase) is about the person who acts hypocritically or unnaturally, pretending to be honest or naive.

Origin:
The origin of this expression has to do with newborn babies whose eyes are misty blue. Over time, the colour of a newborn's eyes changes and becomes the permanent eye colour. The blue eyes of a baby symbolize innocence.

Example:
• Он на голубом глазу врал, что не знал, что случилось. Но мы знали правду!
He lied through his teeth, claiming he didn't know what happened. But we knew the truth!

This amazing song by Yuri Vizbor (1967) is performed by his granddaughter Varvara Vizbor.

А зима будет большая…
The winter will be long...
Вот, гляди-ка, за рекой
Look beyond the river
Тихо осень умирает,
Autumn is quietly dying,
Машет жёлтою рукой.
Waving with its yellow hand.

Плачут мокрые осины,
The wet aspens are crying,
Плачет дедушка Арбат,

Плачет синяя Россия,

Превратившись в снегопад.

И, сугробы сокрушая,
And, crushing the snowdrifts
Солнце брызнет по весне…

А зима будет большая —
The winter will be long –
Тoлько сумерки да снег.
Only twilight and snow.

Back in the fall of 2022, the well-known company Gazprom released a short clip under the unofficial noscript "And the winter will be long..."

🔻This clip was edited to show that it is hard to survive a cold winter without Russian gas. This is when the Nord Stream was shut off. Just business, no trolling😉.
