Favorite Russian. Masalygina P.

The content of this book resembles a game with fire. At least from the philistine point of view, this will most likely look like that, because a lot of what you will learn about is decent standing out against the background of the accepted and simplest approach to “correct” and “wrong”. This book is not for fighters for the purity of the language, and even more so not for grammar. Because those and others are one way or another subject to outbreaks of linguistic arrogance. Love for the tongue lies not in a sincere desire to fight mistakes. Love for the tongue lies in acceptance - you can sow rational, good and eternal without any evaluative judgments. Because time goes on, the world changes - and the language reflects it.

Especially for our readers, the author of the Masalygina Polina Masalygina, popular in the Runet Instagram-blog “Great Russian” @grit_russian, talks about how the Russian language is changing right now and how we are related to these changes, its native speakers. The book consists of articles that have never previously been published on the blog.
