Expressing a negative preference.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Russians often express negative opinions more readily than Americans or Brits. Saying 'Мне не нравится' is not necessarily an invitation to argue, but a simple statement of fact. In Russian business, being too 'polite' or vague can be seen as a lack of competence. Using 'Мне не нравится' followed by a reason is respected. The 'Dislike' button on Russian sites like VK is often used more actively than on Facebook, reflecting a culture that doesn't feel pressured to only 'Like' things. Younger generations in Moscow use 'не заходит' (doesn't go in) as a trendy alternative to 'мне не нравится'.
The 'Я' Trap
Never start this phrase with 'Я'. Your brain will want to, but you must fight it. It's always 'Мне'.
Plural Check
Always look at the object first. If it's more than one, add that 'я' in 'нравятся'.
