"Доброе утро."

Translation: Good morning.

[jumpthewalls]

What's the difference between добрыи when you say добрыи день and when you say Доброе утро?

[tu.8zPhLD72zzoZN]

It does change depending on gender of the following noun.
http://dictionary.reverso.net/english-russian/good

день is masculine. http://dictionary.reverso.net/english-russian/day

утро is neuter. (edited) http://dictionary.reverso.net/english-russian/morning

[212498873]

Be careful. This word "утро" is neuter. See your own link.

[tu.8zPhLD72zzoZN]

Yes, my error. Thank you for catching that.

[212498873]

Доброе утро is when you woke up until lunch . Добрый день includes lunchtime and before dinner time

[Kliphph]

This is confusing as a person who speaks Polish, as utro is similar to jutro (tomorrow).

[FrannyTheBunny]

It's similar to Spanish, where mañana means both "morning" and "tomorrow".

[CHANTAL156]

I do not hear the second "o" in доброе It sounds like дОБРЕ, Grateful for explanation.

[Dron007]

Second "о" is pronounced like "а" as it is unstressed: "добрае утра".

[EdmundMcIntosh]

It seems quite common to give up pronouncing the ends of such words, making it hard to tell the difference between -ое ("eh") and -ая ("aah") : (. There isn't a particularly interesting reason for it.

[alanvoe]

Unstressed and stressed vowels in Russian are pronounced differently. That second O is unstressed and pronounced /ə/, the final E is unstressed and pronounced /ɪ/. Thus, доброе is pronounced /'dobrəɪ/ .

[Lobl]

why does it sound "utra" and not "utro"?

[DarcX]

"o" and "a" sound the same in unstressed positions.

[Larkspire]

Normally I find listening to music in my target language to be not as helpful as it's made out to be, but in this case I actually did learn утро not from Duolingo but from my new favourite band, Кино.

[Bryan.EDU]

For me, rolling the р after the т is quite difficult. Are there any tips?

[olimo]

I guess you have to adjust your T to be more "Russian". The tip of your tongue should touch your upper front teeth. With that, saying "трррр" is no problem.

P.S. For us Russians, saying "R" after "TH", like in "three", is a real pain!

[Tor_Heyerdal]

Thank you for reminding me of that! I keep forgetting that what would normally be alveolar consonants in English are often dental consonants in Russian. I have the same problem as Bryan.EDU, and with the fact that I've not been keeping this in mind, it's no wonder. lol.

What's the difference between доброе and хорошо?

[Kundoo]

"Доброе" means "kind", "хорошо" means "good". "Доброе утро" translates as "good morning" because one doesn't normally say "kind morning" as a greeting in English.

(Also, "добрый" used to mean "good" long time ago, but this meaning in obsolete and exists now only in a number of set expressions)

[niscate]

Thanks for the clarification. So, добрый nowadays only means "good" in fixed expressions like Доброе утро? Is it used anywhere else?

[Onalga]

Can the the word "хорошо" be used in sentences like good morning, good evening, good night etc. or is it like a huge no-no?

...it's just a lot easier to remember lol
