🎯

The Dominant Rule

When in doubt, use the 'dominant' (neutral) word. It is never wrong, whereas a specific synonym might be socially awkward.

Review Summary

  • Neutral Word -> [Colloquial Synonym] / [Formal Synonym]

よくある間違い

The verb 'кушать' is often considered overly precious or childish when used for oneself in neutral speech. Use 'есть/поесть' instead.

Wrong: Я хочу кушать в ресторане. (I want to eat in a restaurant.)
正解: Я хочу поесть в ресторане. (I want to eat in a restaurant.)

This is a classic 'paronym' error. 'Одеть' is used for dressing someone else; 'надеть' is used for putting something on yourself.

Wrong: Я одел пальто. (I dressed the coat.)
正解: Я надел пальто. (I put on the coat.)

While 'очень большой' is not grammatically wrong, at B2 level, overusing 'очень' makes your speech sound repetitive and basic. Use a stronger adjective.

Wrong: Это был очень большой успех. (It was a very big success.)
正解: Это был грандиозный успех. (It was a grandiose/massive success.)

They are words that belong to the same part of speech and have similar meanings but differ in shade, intensity, or social use.
You can, but you'll sound repetitive and basic. Synonyms add precision and show you understand Russian culture and social hierarchy.
