Face in Russian
On a daily basis, you probably encounter at least a few new people. From the cashier at the grocery store to the mailman. I’m sure you’d be able to describe all these people in English, but how about in Russian?
Learning body parts, and especially parts of the face in Russian is very important. If you ever need to go to the doctor or the pharmacy, you’ll need to know what you’re talking about. That’s why we’ll be talking about all the different parts of the face in this lesson. Get your глаза (glaza) and уши (ooshi) ready for this lesson!
