>>Ah, the list of false friend words between Russian and Serbian is pretty much endless. The classical example is the head of our delegation thanking the hosts, and wrongly assuming that 150g is enough to speak Russian, says "mi u vas zhili krasnim zhivotom", which does not mean "your place we lived nice life", but "we had red belly"...
