Can you understand JOKES in Russian? These ones are tough.

We all live in the era of memes, in the era of funny pictures, and you know what could be better than the funniest meme? A good old joke. In this video, I want to tell you a few funny anecdotes that I remember from my childhood. In general, I remember them for a long time. And they are all built on the game of words. Will you be able to solve this game of words and understand why they are funny? Hi, my name is Yaroslava. On this channel, we talk about the Russian language, about how to speak Russian, and in general, about everything related to the Russian language. Therefore, if you are learning Russian, then welcome. Before I start embarrassing myself, you can like this video. It will be very nice. Today I want to tell you about an anecdote with one character. This is Stirlitz. This is a Soviet agent who was in Germany. In general, he was a spy in Germany. And what is interesting about the anecdotes about this Stirlitz is that they are built on the game of words. I will read them to you. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. I have 6 anecdotes. Let's do this. First, I will read the anecdote once. Then I will explain where there is a word and a phrase with a transitive meaning. And then I will read it again. I hope it will be clear where to laugh. And you will learn a few new interesting phrases. Well, now we can start. Anecdote number 1. The letter from the center did not reach Stirlitz. I had to read it again. So, where to laugh? I will explain now. In the Russian language, не дошло, well, or vice versa, дошло means to understand something. For example, when something came to me, it means I finally understood it. Or when I don't understand something, I can say, well, it doesn't reach me, well, it didn't reach me, so I don't understand how to do it. And therefore, and another meaning. The letter comes from somewhere, a paper letter in an envelope, comes from one place, well, respectively, to another. And, by the way, the letter from the center did not reach Stirlitz. Therefore, he had to read this letter again. Damn, I feel a little stupid, because the stupidest thing is to explain jokes. But I do it in the name of science. I do it in the name of education. Therefore, well. Stirlitz looked at one point for a long time. Then to another. Finally understood Stirlitz. Here, I think you understand, there is an expression to look at one point. To look at one point means to think hard about something. Not to react to anything else. That is, I look at one point. And that's it. That is, you don't see anything else. I think you know. I think you have encountered this. So, he looked at one point for a long time. It means he thought hard. Then to another point, which already seems a bit absurd. This is such a sign of nodding. When two points ... Stirlitz looked at one point for a long time. Then to another. Finally understood Stirlitz. Stirlitz melted the fireplace all night. In the morning the fireplace sank. The word melt has two meanings. The first is to immerse in water. For example, you can immerse someone. But it is better not to. More precisely, 100% is not necessary at all. You can, for example, neighbors can immerse you. When they have water coming from above to your apartment. And the second meaning. For example, to immerse, to heat. But to heat with something. For example, you can heat a house with firewood. You can heat a house with a battery. That is, so that it is warm. Here Stirlitz melted the fireplace all night. And in the morning the fireplace sank. I do not know, but I was very funny as a child. These are the times, thought Mueller, when a brick fell on his head on the street. These are the two, thought Stirlitz, and threw the second brick. Here appears the second hero. So, the phrase, here are the times. You can say this when you are very surprised by something. Here are the times. What happened? Here are the times. And here comes the game of words, because here are the times. There is a word once. One, two, three. When we count something. And Stirlitz says, here are the two. Here are the times, thought Mueller, when a brick fell on his head on the street. Here are the two, thought Stirlitz, and threw the second brick. Stirlitz went to Dresden, with difficulty disassembling the road. In the morning the railway from Berlin to Dresden was dismantled. To disassemble. First, to disassemble is to try to understand something. For example, I do not understand, I do not understand, for example, in medicine. Or, for example, I do not understand in Chinese. I do not understand. I do not know what is going on there. Then, the second meaning, for example, as here. With difficulty disassembling the road. That is, not understanding how it goes. That is, he does not see this road. He does not know this road at all. Does not understand what is going on there. That is, to go with difficulty disassembling the road. That is, to go rather at a guess. Trying to understand. And here. But the second meaning of the word disassemble. This is to disassemble in parts. You had a whole car. You disassembled it in parts. Now it's not a car, it's a bunch of parts. A bunch of spare parts. So. Stirlitz went to Dresden with difficulty disassembling the road. In the morning, the railway from Berlin to Dresden was disassembled. And the last anecdote. There is no play of words. But I think you can understand the meaning of this character. And you are good, Stirlitz, praised Muller. I serve the Soviet Union. By habit, Stirlitz replied. Well, friends. How do you like this experiment? I hope it was at least a little funny. But now you know a few more cool phrases. And how they are used in different ways. Write in the comments. Was it funny for you? Or was it funny only for me? And see you in new videos.
