You are amazing!! I have been trying to understand these cases from different people and different channels and you are by far the best. Before, I thought I'd never understand them because they seemed so complicated but you make them sound so doable. Thaaank you!!

Hi!
Your way to explain the difficult topic on Russian cases is unique and so straightforward!
I finally got the idea behind them.
Thanks always!!!

[LadyEnro]

This is the best video I have found for explaining a case, Please make videos for the other cases!!!!

[iqbalhamid]

Excellent lecture! You made the prepositional case so simple and interesting. Brilliant job. Please make videos for the rest of the cases. Many thanks

[Lpojiljo]

your videos are well explained and easy to listen. (I'm not an English native speaker)
Thank you for keep making more video!

Thank you Janey, I really picked up a lot in this video. The sample dialogues help to put things together

[QueenBee]

Too bad you didn't continue the videos with the other cases. Great video. Hopefully you will continue.

[RodEdwardsImagery]

Really helpful tutorial. I've been learning Russian with Duolingo - which is great but it doesn't explain the grammar clearly. Your video does ... One case down ... five to go ! Lets hope the rest are this easy ! :)

Are you going to do the other cases at some point?

Очень интересно посмотреть как вы мучаетесь, изучая русский язык. Для меня, ресскоговорящего, кажется это всё элементарно и просто, но для иностранца это целая наука. Делается акцент на малозначительные нюансы, на которые можно не обращать внимание, но видимо для вас они очень важны. It's pretty funny to see this lesson for Russian native.

[TheKalengi]

What about words that end in И like Найроби (Nairobi the capital of Kenya)?

[monty]

Your lessons are great!! Are there more?

на 12.05 не самый удачный пример -"в кухне". мы говорим "на кухне" ) еще на 9.00 не самый удачный пример с городом Ростов. если это глагол движения, то сказать "в Ростов" правильно, например " я еду в Ростов" или "я улетаю завтра в Ростов" окончание не будет меняться, но если Ростов заменить на город Москва, тогда все складывается правильно и окончание меняется, дело в том наверное, что Ростов имеет согласную букву "В" на конце, как и город Краснодар, с буквой "Р" на конце, а Москва с гласной буквой "А", гласные буквы меняются чаще чем согласные)

It's really sad to see this discontinues.

[JackPoison]

Небольшая поправка. Пишется Киев "на" Украине. Предлог "в" пишется только если человек говорит на "мове". "Мова як мова", это перековерканный русский. Поэтому она и не воспринимается русскоязычными, от сюда и "собачья"... Можете посмотреть сами в книге «Грамматическая правильность русской речи» 2001 года.
