뜻
Describing weather.
문화적 배경
The 'Heating Season' (отопительный сезон) is a major cultural topic. If it is 'холодно' before the central heating is turned on in October, everyone complains together. In Siberia, 'холодно' starts at -20°C. Anything above that might be considered 'warm' or 'normal'. Small talk about the cold is the most socially acceptable way to interact with strangers in elevators or queues. Cold is often used to symbolize a character's loneliness or the harshness of fate (e.g., in Chekhov or Dostoevsky).
The 'V' Sound
Always remember that 'сегодня' is pronounced with a 'v' sound, not a 'g' sound. It's one of the most common pronunciation mistakes!
No 'It is'
Never say 'Это сегодня холодно'. It sounds like you are pointing at a specific 'today' out of many, which is confusing.
