Актуальна ли "народная мудрость" в наше время? Мы с Юлей обсуждаем пять популярных русских пословиц: о дружбе и деньгах, родине, принятии решений и движении к своим целям. Объясняем их смысл, вспоминаем свой опыт и спорим с тем, с чем не согласны. Этот диалог поможет вам понимать пословицы, которые встречаются в русской речи, книгах и фильмах.

Is "folk wisdom" still relevant today? Yulia and I discuss five popular Russian proverbs about friendship and money, our homeland, making decisions, and working toward our goals. We explain their meaning, recall our own experiences, and challenge the ideas we disagree with. This dialogue will help you understand proverbs you may encounter in spoken Russian, books, and movies.
