Russian 101: Resisting Torture, Part 1

[Martin135869]

Muzhik, don't make us resort to vodka-boarding...

:said in thick russian accent:

[JewishPolyglot]

Love the Russian double negative

[mosfet07]

Try to parse this:
Никто ничего ни о ком не знает.

[mightypotatoe]

Is it "no one knows anything about anyone"?

[mosfet07]

We have a winner!

[JewishPolyglot]

Forget it - I already gave up after the first three words

[ParisTheLoris]

Pretty much every language other than English uses double negatives!

[Elena718808]

Nope. Most Germanic and Scandinavian languages don't use double negative. But it's very common in romance and slavic languages. I don't know about Asian and African languages though... Would be interesting to find out what is the most common

[tylerblankenship]

This and "Не твоё дело!" are going to become SO useful when I get caught up with the Russian mob!

what a perfect sentence to use if ever im taken hostage

[IAmTheSenate]

"Я знаю, что ничего не знаю." - Сократ

[Veivampire]

Does that mean, "I know, what I don't know"?

[MasqueArt]

"I know, that I know nothing." Not sure about proper translation.

[nopity-]

me, at any given moment of any day

[SpookySaint]

This is how I feel trying to learn Russian.

[detailaddict]

So Schultz speaks Russian now? He must have been sent to the Russian front as he always feared.

[dreamloomer]

Сказал Джон Снол.

[DOne803003]

Russian:me
1:0

[Inga270314]

Is ничего an accusative form? I thought that inanimate object like "nothing" would copy the nominative... Or is that an exception?

[Sourick]

No.

[MasqueArt]

Ты ничего незнает Джон Снив.

[Oliver371906]

Same

[RRL210]

Can this also be "I know nothing"?
