뜻
Admiring a location.
문화적 배경
The 'dacha' is a second home in the country. Complimenting the beauty of the dacha garden is essential etiquette. Residents of St. Petersburg (Piter) are very proud of their city's European-style beauty. Using this phrase there is very common. Nature is often personified in Russian culture. Saying a place is beautiful is seen as acknowledging its 'soul'. When you enter a Russian home, you are expected to notice the effort put into the decor.
The 'O' Rule
Remember that unstressed 'o' in Russian sounds like 'a'. So 'krasivo' is pronounced 'krasiva'.
Don't say 'is'
Adding 'est' (is) makes you sound like a 19th-century textbook or a robot. Keep it simple: 'Здесь очень красиво'.
