"Я пью молоко."

Translation: I drink milk.

[dwfalloon]

I think the voice on this one is off.

[DesmondAllen]

it sounds like 'yed - yuu' to me

[Norrius]

It's fine. Could've made the pause after «я» a bit longer though.

[worstquestions]

That's probably my biggest complaint with the course right now. The voice speaks way too fast and I can't slow down most of the statements.

[AlexMilneski]

I found that the я here sounds more like a "je" instead of a "ja" when spoken quickly (in Polish phonetics). Correct me if I'm wrong...

[Squonkalini]

You're definitely right, AlexMilneski.

[ElHeim]

Why does it need a pause?

[PolyGoat8]

but i'm lactose intolerant((

Thanks for that. Its the first bit of conjugation ive seen on this course. I had no idea what the different words were for i, he,we etc. Makes it easier to learn.

[Cleo736122]

Oh my gosh thank you! This has been confusing me for ages!

[duna_bsm]

Right, no issues with this exercise (i see lots of comments about the voice which now seems sorted out), but why is it on the genitive case exercises???

[FV3t9]

I need a simpler way to spell пью

[SpartanScy]

The male voice really should be changed. He doesn't speak clearly.

[Kyra351816]

Is "пью" pronounced more like "pew" or "pyo?"

[Emmanuel21047]

pew, like when your fake shooting a gun

What is the difference between "выпивать" and "пить"?

[ns_shadow]

"пить" simply means "to drink" in two variants:

1) In Present Simple Tense for regular meaning:

Я пью молоко. - I drink milk. (with the meaning "I can use milk as food" or "I drink milk from time to time")

Я пью молоко каждый день. - I drink milk every day.

2) In Present Continuous:

Я пью молоко. - I am drinking milk.

"выпивать" has at least two meanings:

1) to drink up, i.e. to drink all the drink:

Выпей молоко! - Drink up the milk!

Sometimes the meaning is really close to "пить":

Я выпиваю один стакан (или два стакана) молока в день. = Я пью по одному стакану (или по два стакана) молока в день. - I drink one glass of milk a day.

2) Without specification of what is drunk it means "to drink alcohol from time to time".

Oh! By the way :) "пить" without specification can mean "to drink alcohol" and in some cases "to drink alcohol in large amounts" :)

[UnframedCactus]

Спасибо! This is helpful :)

[Aida01010101]

Wow thanks!!! :)

Why I'm drinking the milk is not accepted? How to point out it's "THE milk" in Russian writing?

[UnframedCactus]

Technically your answer should be accepted. Russian does not have grammatical articles such as the English "a/an" and "the", so "молоко" can mean "a milk" (as in "a type of milk", if I'm not mistaken), "the milk", or simply "milk". I hope this helps!

[udaspmz]

Is the direct object of this sentence, since it is being drunk?

[_-.Jae.-_]

Пью is the drink you use with я ?
