意味
Starting a friendship.
文化的背景
Friendship is often considered more important than professional success. 'Завести дружбу' implies a level of trust that goes beyond just 'knowing' someone. In many post-Soviet countries, 'blat' (connections) often started by 'завести дружбу' with the right people to navigate bureaucracy. Classic authors like Tolstoy and Dostoevsky used this phrase to describe the complex social webs of 19th-century Russia. In big cities like Moscow, people now 'заводят дружбу' in hobby clubs or gyms, moving away from the traditional 'neighbor' culture.
Use with 'удалось'
Saying 'Мне удалось завести дружбу' (I managed to...) sounds very natural and humble.
Don't say 'сделать'
Never use 'сделать дружбу'. It's the most common giveaway that you are translating from English.

The 'Friend' vs 'Acquaintance' line
