Word of the day

Today's word is зачем. In english zachem.
It means why. I chose this word because when we attempted (for the third time) to go see a movie today they woman said we could not buy tickets so I asked her why? to which she said something I couldn't understand. But hey at least I tried :)

  1. Colleen,

    Your Russian experience often sounds like an exercise in frustration. Have you learned the Russian word for that yet? Persevere!

  2. Well, I like to say 3rd time's the charm, but I guess not for moving going in Volgograd. Might there be another theater you could try? Luckily, everything is an adventure and a learning experience! Keep smiling :)
