Thanks a lot for teaching us things which simply aren't available in "language books/most videos". I personally feel like we sound more natural when using colloquial words and phrases.

In St. Petersburg, I very often hear "Всего доброго!" ("Wish you well!"), usually followed by the more common "До свидания" as a farewell. Less often, I hear "Удачи!" ("Good luck!" -- although maybe they're just wishing me good luck as a foreigner who poorly speaks Russian lol)

One of the most common ways to say goodbye is "давай" (davaj), literally meaning "give", but colloquially rather "bye", "let's go", "come on" or "don't keep me waiting". Very versatile word with lots of meanings, and pretty much exactly corresponds to Yalla (יאללה) in Hebrew or Arabic.

Thank you Fedya, this is super material, it's really using higher order learning techniques. I believe this is the best way to learn language, to make it memorable. The most important but often overlooked part of learning language is not just acquiring new words (declarative knowledge) or knowing how to use those words grammatically (procedural knowledge), but actually understanding when and how and why it is appropriate to use them (conditional knowledge). I have found that focussing conditional knowledge like this is really the secret sauce for second language mastery. This is wonderful stuff you are teaching.

People also say "Давай" really often as a way to say goodbye.

Приятно видеть такое подробное видео. К тому же, кажется, довольно популяроное. Рада, что есть люди желающие узнать нашу культуру поближе и без необоснованных оскорбительных коментариев🥰

I studied Russian in college over 40 years ago. Needless to say, most of my abilities have suffered from lack of use. I am amazed at how much is coming back to me from watching your videos. Thanks for all your efforts ❤

Можно ещё сказать "чё как" = как дела. И ништяк = gopnik version of "nice".

[marksawesomeadventures]

[vassilok]

Also VERY common:
Q: Как жизнь?
A: Потихоньку.

[davidsarkar]

The funny thing's that not all russians use such expressions, because the choice of expressions helps to build a certain image. E. g. to say "how are you" I use the phrase "как дела" most of the time, I almost never use the phases from the video (they seem a bit outdated to me, like something a person above 30 would say), and I often use phrases like "как делишки" ("как дела", but cuter), "как ты там" ("how are you there", when I want to emphasize that we've not communicated for a long time, or when the interlocutor's having a hard time), "чё как" ("sup", a bit gopnik'ish), "чё ты как ты" (same). Some people even come up with phrases of their own design to use them while chatting with friends. Here is what I've come up with right now: "Как дельца?" (from the word "дельце", which is close to "дело" used in "как дела"). Or even more exotic "Солнце светит?" - "Is the sun shining?" would be a good substitute when communicating with a person who knows the joke. Though I've never heard people using these two certain expressions, I've just made them up. I mean, if you're a native speaker (or at least you pretend well XD), you may do what ever you want to the language
