意味
Suffering a major defeat.
文化的背景
Journalists love this phrase for its dramatic effect. It's often used in headlines to grab attention, especially when discussing Western sanctions or failed government initiatives. In Russian universities, 'фиаско' is used to describe a theory or a research paper that has been thoroughly debunked. It sounds more intellectual than 'ошибка'. Russian theater culture is very prestigious. A 'фиаско' at the Bolshoi or the Moscow Art Theater is considered a national tragedy for the performers. Russians often use high-register words ironically to mock their own small failures. This shows a high level of linguistic playfulness.
Use with 'Полное'
To sound like a native, almost always add the adjective 'полное' (complete) for emphasis. 'Это было полное фиаско' sounds much more natural than just 'Это было фиаско'.
Don't Decline!
Never try to change the ending of 'фиаско'. It's a foreign loanword that stays the same in all cases. 'Много фиаско', not 'много фиасок'.

Journalistic Flair
If you are writing an essay for a Russian exam (like TRKI), using this phrase instead of 'неудача' will earn you extra points for vocabulary range.
