00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:01,754
Hello everyone.

2
00:00:01,754 --> 00:00:05,665
Today we will continue speaking in simple Russian.

3
00:00:05,665 --> 00:00:07,964
Do you like watching TV series?

4
00:00:07,964 --> 00:00:10,142
Do you watch movies?

5
00:00:10,142 --> 00:00:13,416
Do you like cinema?

6
00:00:13,416 --> 00:00:19,083
Maybe you watch cartoons, animated series or anime?

7
00:00:19,083 --> 00:00:23,860
Anime is Japanese cartoons or animated series.

8
00:00:23,860 --> 00:00:27,658
In front of me there is a Wednesday doll.

9
00:00:27,658 --> 00:00:32,543
In Russian, her name means Wednesday.

10
00:00:32,543 --> 00:00:40,205
But in Russian, we don’t say "среда" about her. Even in Russian, we call her "Вэнсдэй".

11
00:00:40,205 --> 00:00:42,880
Or "Уэнсдэй".

12
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:52,983
When it comes to the letter W, there are different spelling variations in Russian.

13
00:00:52,983 --> 00:01:00,066
For example, in the books about Sherlock Holmes, it is written Ватсон.

14
00:01:00,066 --> 00:01:09,996
But when we talk about the actress Emma Watson, the usual spelling and pronunciation is Уотсон.

15
00:01:09,996 --> 00:01:21,723
I think this is due to the fact that the Russian language is not very similar to English, if you compare their phonetics.

16
00:01:21,723 --> 00:01:25,687
This doll was made by the brand Mattel.

17
00:01:25,687 --> 00:01:29,804
Their most famous doll is Barbie.

18
00:01:29,804 --> 00:01:33,239
In Russian, we also say Barbie.

19
00:01:33,239 --> 00:01:40,424
As far as I know, the second season of Wednesday will be released in August.

20
00:01:40,424 --> 00:01:44,165
Have you watched the first season? Did you like it?

21
00:01:44,165 --> 00:01:46,651
Let me know in the comments.

22
00:01:46,651 --> 00:01:51,342
I think this doll is a great Halloween gift.

23
00:01:51,342 --> 00:01:57,579
Or a gift for someone who watches the Addams family.

24
00:01:57,579 --> 00:02:08,914
This doll can be described as having a gothic aesthetic, and her nails are painted black.

25
00:02:08,914 --> 00:02:15,795
Her lips are also painted with black lipstick.

26
00:02:15,795 --> 00:02:20,940
I say lipstick because it's not real lipstick.

27
00:02:20,940 --> 00:02:27,228
It's paint. But if we were talking about a person, it would probably be lipstick.

28
00:02:27,228 --> 00:02:33,476
She also has black hair and dark eyes (brown eyes).

29
00:02:33,476 --> 00:02:39,590
And she has highlights painted on her eyes.

30
00:02:39,590 --> 00:02:40,937
Highlights in the form of skulls.

31
00:02:40,937 --> 00:02:47,240
They're very small, so they're hard to notice, hard to see.

32
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:57,280
Черепушка is a diminutive of the word skull. If something is small or cute,

33
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:04,680
we can use a diminutive form. In Russian, we do this all the time.

34
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:15,680
For example, this is a ложка, and this is a small spoon or a ложечка. This is also a ложечка, not so much

35
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:25,400
because of the size, but because it is cute, in the shape of a flower. The doll's face is made in such a way

36
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:36,200
that it imitates gothic style makeup. This part of the hairstyle ("bangs) is called "чёлка". In German,

37
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:45,360
this word is Pony, but in Russian, a "pony" (пони) is a small horse. Funny, isn't it? In one old

38
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:53,880
Soviet cartoon, there is even a song in which a pony has long bangs made of delicate silk. This

39
00:03:53,880 --> 00:04:05,480
part of the hairstyle is called a braid or a pigtail. And this part of the hairstyle is a tail or a ponytail.

40
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:16,280
It is very interesting that you can learn so many words about hair just by looking at one doll.

41
00:04:16,280 --> 00:04:26,240
If we pay attention to her ears, she has earrings in her ears. By the way, there are also small

42
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:35,080
skulls on the earrings. If we continue talking about makeup, we can say that the doll has arrows drawn on her face.

43
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:43,480
The doll is wearing an elegant dress, beautiful, not for every day. We can say

44
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:50,800
that it is a ball gown. A ball gown is a dressy dress, a dress for going to a ball,

45
00:04:50,800 --> 00:05:00,360
an evening dress, a floor-length dress if we are talking about the length.

46
00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,080
Thanks for watching. Bye-bye.
