    <title><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Дава́йте познако́мимся!</foreignphrase></title>
    <para>There is no secret to greeting people in Russian. It can be as simple as <emphasis
        role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Здра́вствуйте</foreignphrase></emphasis>/<emphasis
        role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Здра́вствуй</foreignphrase></emphasis>! Like
      "Hello" in English, you can use this greeting at any time of the day and with nearly anyone.
      Keep in mind, however, that you will use this expression only once in the day. If you meet
      again later, you should greet each other using a different expression. You may use
        <foreignphrase xml:lang="ru"><emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">До́брое
            у́тро!</foreignphrase></emphasis></foreignphrase> Good morning! <emphasis role="bold"
          ><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">До́брый день!</foreignphrase></emphasis> Good afternoon! or
        <emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">До́брый
        ве́чер!</foreignphrase></emphasis> Good evening! depending on the time of day. More informal
      greetings such as <emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru"
        >Приве́т!</foreignphrase></emphasis> Hi! or the very slangy <emphasis role="bold"
          ><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Салю́т!</foreignphrase></emphasis> Hey! are also possible,
      but you should be careful when, and with whom you use these.</para>
    <para>As we do in English, you might ask someone you know how he/she is doing: <emphasis
        role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Как пожива́ете?</foreignphrase></emphasis> How are
      you? <emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Как дела́?</foreignphrase></emphasis>
      How are things (going)? Possible responses are<emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase
          xml:lang="ru"> Хорошо</foreignphrase></emphasis>́ Fine; <emphasis role="bold"
          ><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Норма́льно</foreignphrase></emphasis> As usual;<emphasis
        role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru"> Ничего́</foreignphrase></emphasis> O.K. Unlike
      Americans, whose response to these questions is often nothing more than a polite Tine,
      thanks." Russians may take the time to tell you the whole truth!</para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">До свида́ния</foreignphrase></emphasis>
      Good bye! (literally: "Until our next meeting.") will work in all situations when saying
      good-bye. You may also use: <emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Всего́
          хоро́шего</foreignphrase></emphasis>; <emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru"
          >Всего́ до́брого!</foreignphrase></emphasis> All the best. <emphasis role="bold"
          ><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Пока́!</foreignphrase></emphasis> See ya! or Bye! is more
      casual and you should be careful when you use it, and with whom.</para>

    <title>When to use <db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Вы</db:foreignphrase> and <db:foreignphrase
        xml:lang="ru">Ты</db:foreignphrase></title>
    <para>Russian, unlike English, has two different forms of the second person singular pronoun
      "you": <emphasis role="bold"><db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">вы</db:foreignphrase></emphasis>
      and <emphasis role="bold"><db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">ты</db:foreignphrase></emphasis>.
      Compare these to the French <emphasis role="bold">Vous</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold"
        >tu</emphasis> or the German <emphasis role="bold">Sie</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold"
        >du</emphasis>. The <emphasis role="bold"><db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru"
          >вы</db:foreignphrase></emphasis> form is also the second person plural.</para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold"><db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Вы</db:foreignphrase></emphasis> is
      used in formal situations, work settings, when speaking to a superior or to someone older, to
      whom you wish to show a degree of respect. <emphasis role="bold"><db:foreignphrase
          xml:lang="ru">Вы</db:foreignphrase></emphasis> indicates distance (emotional, social or
      chronological).</para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold"><db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Ты</db:foreignphrase></emphasis> is
      used in informal situations, family relationships (between spouses, parents and children,
      between siblings and with other relatives), when speaking to someone younger than you.
        <emphasis role="bold"><db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Ты</db:foreignphrase></emphasis>
      indicates closeness (in age or in terms of friendship and intimacy).</para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold"><db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru"
      >Вы</db:foreignphrase></emphasis>-forms of address can be full first name plus patronymic,
      full first name minus patronymic, or shortened first name only. <emphasis role="bold"

      first name only, either full or shortened.</para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold"><db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Ты</db:foreignphrase></emphasis> is
      always used when addressing God, speaking to children (your own or anyone's) and calling your
      cat or dog.</para>
    <para>When they first meet, adults will usually begin by addressing each other as <emphasis
        role="bold"><db:foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Вы</db:foreignphrase></emphasis>. At some point
      in time in the relationship, one may suggest to the other that they change to <emphasis

    <title>Addressing friends and acquaintances in Russian</title>
    <para>The first name is the most common form of address between persons who enjoy a close
      relationship. The use of the various forms of the first name (similar to our American
      nicknames) is influenced by the degree of intimacy in the relationship. The greater the
      intimacy, the more variety in these forms. For example:</para>
    <variablelist>
      <varlistentry>
        <term>A</term>
        <listitem>
          <para>Full forms of the first name <emphasis role="bold">(</emphasis><emphasis role="bold"

    <title>The Russian intonation system</title>
    <para>Much in the same way as English does, Russian uses a system of rising and falling
      intonations within a sentence to indicate that it is: a declarative statement, a question or
      an exclamation. Examine the following English sentences. Note their punctuation and attempt to
      read them with the proper intonation:</para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold">Your son graduated from Harvard.</emphasis></para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold">Your son graduated from Harvard?</emphasis></para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold">Your son graduated from Harvard!</emphasis></para>
    <para>Now listen as your instructor reads this set of similar sentences in Russian. Note where
      the "center" of intonation is (always on the word in question or a question word, in a
      question), and the rise and fall of the voice:</para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Ва́ша дочь око́нчила
          МГУ.</foreignphrase></emphasis></para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Ва́ша дочь око́нчила
          МГУ?</foreignphrase></emphasis></para>
    <para><emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Ва́ша дочь око́нчила
          МГУ!</foreignphrase></emphasis></para>
    <para>The Russian intonation patterns have been organized into a system which refers to them as
      "intonation constructions" or "ИК". There are 5 basic patterns:</para>
    <orderedlist>
      <listitem>
        <formalpara>
          <title>ИК-1</title>
          <para>for declarative sentences, statements. The tone is even,with a slight falling off at
            the end. Often this intonation is perceived by speakers of English as "boring", but you
            should resist the temptation to "jazz it up".</para>
        </formalpara>
        <para>For example:</para>
        <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Моя́ фами́лия Моро́зов. Меня́ зову́т Никола́й Петро́вич.
            Э́то моя́ жена́. Её зову́т Екатери́на Васи́льевна. Мы москвичи́. Мы живём в
            Москве́.</foreignphrase></para>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <formalpara>
          <title>ИК-2</title>
          <para>for questions containing a question word (<emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase
                xml:lang="ru">Что?</foreignphrase></emphasis>
            <emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru"
              >Кто?</foreignphrase></emphasis><emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">
                Как?</foreignphrase></emphasis>
            <emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Где?</foreignphrase></emphasis>
            <emphasis role="bold"><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Когда́?</foreignphrase></emphasis>,
            etc.). The intonation rises on the question word and then drops and levels off for the
            rest of the sentence.</para>
        </formalpara>
        <para>For example:</para>
        <informalexample>
          <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Кто э́то? Что э́то?</foreignphrase></para>
          <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Как вас зову́т?</foreignphrase></para>
          <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Где вы живёте? Где вы
            рабо́таете?</foreignphrase></para>
          <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Когда́ вы прие́хали в Москву́?</foreignphrase></para>
        </informalexample>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <formalpara>
          <title>ИК-3</title>
          <para>for questions which do NOT contain a question word. This pattern is used to turn
            declarative sentences into questions without changing word order. The intonation rises
            on the word in question and then drops and levels off for the rest of the
            sentence.</para>
        </formalpara>
        <para>For example:</para>
        <informalexample>
          <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Вы говори́те по-ру́сски? Вы хорошо́ говори́те
              по-ру́сски?</foreignphrase></para>
          <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Вы рабо́таете в америка́нском
              посо́льстве?</foreignphrase></para>
          <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Вы давно́ в Москве́?</foreignphrase></para>
          <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">Э́то ва́ша маши́на?</foreignphrase></para>
          <para><foreignphrase xml:lang="ru">У вас есть де́ти?</foreignphrase></para>
        </informalexample>
      </listitem>
      <listitem>
        <formalpara>
          <title>ИК-4</title>
          <para>for "incomplete" questions which are usually prefaced with «A..?». In a dialog,
            these refer back to a question asked previously. The intonation dips slightly at the
            beginning of the question, then rises sharply and continues to rise to the end of the
            sentence.</para>
        </formalpara>
        <para>For example:</para>
