Читать книгу Russian For Dummies - Serafima Gettys - Страница 19

A fun (and satisfying!) activity for practicing your Russian is going out to eat. At a Russian restaurant or cafe, you may discover that the names of dishes on the menu are translated into English, followed by very flowery explanations; the wait-staff usually understands English as long it’s words that are on the menu. When placing an order, you can just point to the item you want. You can also add the following phrase, just to show off your Russian: Ябуду … (ya booh-dooh …) (I will have …) followed by the name of the item.

You can discover more Russian to use while eating out and buying food at a market in Chapter 9.
