뜻
Used to ask for the price of an item.
문화적 배경
In Russia, it is common to see prices ending in .99, just like in the West. However, in small kiosks, you might still find rounded numbers. Always check if the price is 'за штуку' (per piece) or 'за килограмм' (per kilogram). In places like the Danilovsky Market in Moscow or bazaars in Central Asia, asking 'Сколько это стоит?' is just the start of a conversation. Haggling (торговаться) is expected and can be a fun social interaction. Older generations might still remember when prices were stamped directly onto metal or plastic goods at the factory. This 'fixed price' mentality makes some older Russians less likely to haggle in modern stores. In modern Russia, especially in cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg, people rarely ask the price out loud because they use apps like Samokat or Yandex Go. Asking 'Сколько это стоит?' is becoming more reserved for physical, face-to-face interactions.
The 'O' Rule
Always remember: STO-it (costs) vs. sto-EET (stands). Misplacing the stress is the #1 giveaway of a beginner.
Be Polite
Adding 'Скажите, пожалуйста' (Tell me, please) before the phrase makes you sound much more like a native speaker.

Plural Trap
Don't forget to change to 'стоят' if you are asking about multiple items like 'эти туфли' (these shoes).

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문Yes, it is very common and perfectly natural to drop 'это' if you are pointing at the object.
It's not rude, but it is very informal. Use it at markets, but avoid it in fancy restaurants or hotels.
Use 'Сколько это стоило?' (Skolko eto stoilo?).
'Цена' is the price tag. 'Стоимость' is the overall cost or value. In daily shopping, 'цена' is more common.
Yes, if you use a noun directly after 'сколько' (e.g., 'Сколько рублей?'), but in 'Сколько это стоит?', 'это' is the subject in the nominative case.
Say 'Сколько с меня?' (How much from me?) or 'Сколько всего?'.
In markets (rynok), yes. In stores (magazin), no.
It's a slightly more 'market-savvy' way to ask, often used by people who shop frequently at bazaars.
Only if you are being very cynical or metaphorical. It sounds like you are trying to buy them.
Use 'Сколько стоит' + infinitive. For example: 'Сколько стоит доехать до центра?'.
