В pазных кpаях оставляем мы сеpдца частицу,
В памяти беpежно, беpежно, беpежно встpечи хpаня.
Вот и тепеpь мы никак не могли не влюбиться,
Как не любить несpавненные эти кpая.
Долго будет Каpелия сниться,
Будут сниться с этих поp
Остpоконечных елей pесницы
Над голубыми глазами озеp.
Белая ночь опустилась безмолвно на скалы,
Светится белая, белая, белая ночь напpолет.
И не понять, то ли небо в озеро упало,
И не понять, то ли озеpо в небе плывет.
Долго будет Каpелия сниться,
Будут сниться с этих поp
Остpоконечных елей pесницы
Над голубыми глазами озеp.

Что удивляет иностранных гостей в Петрозаводске.

Вам какие блины - с курицей или корицей? Почему наши автобусы лучше, чем в Риме? «Ладно» - это да или нет? Читайте, что еще удивляет иностранцев в карельской столице.

Одно из самых необычных мест в Петрозаводске – это школа русского языка для иностранных студентов «Enjoy Russian». Только здесь можно услышать: настоящий английский, испанский, немецкий, финский, японский, китайский, и даже, фламандский.

В течение года к нам  в школу приезжают студенты со всего мира. Этим летом мы принимали гостей из Англии, США, Голландии, Бельгии, Германии, Финляндии, Дании, Австрии, Швеции, Польши, Литвы, Эстонии, Франции и др.

Каждый раз мы удивляемся и радуемся тому, что русский язык учат не только молодые люди 20-25 лет, но и взрослые мужчины и женщины, которые идут к своей цели, несмотря на расстояние и другие преграды. 

А можете ли вы представить, какое количество открытий подстерегает «студентов» в незнакомой стране и незнакомом городе? Даже элементарное посещение кафе не обходится без приключений.  

Кто бы мог подумать, что курица и корица могут совершенно перепутаться, и потребуется немало времени, чтобы выяснить, какие блины нужны – «с курицей» или все-таки «с корицей».

Оказывается, мы русские очень любим слово «ладно». «Вы повторяете его всегда, о чем бы ни говорили», - заметила Ануш из Франции. И попробуйте догадаться, что же мы имеем в виду каждый раз, когда используем очередное «ладно» в своей речи!

«Ваши автобусы лучше, чем в Риме, потому, что там всегда очень много людей», - радостно сообщил Гульельмо. И это удивительно, т.к. ехал он в автобусе в вечерний час-пик! 

А такое обычное для нас приглашение «попить чай» неожиданно оказывается почти полноценным приемом пищи с разнообразными угощениями: блины, сырники, калитки, пирожки со всевозможной начинкой, печенье, пряники, конфеты или даже бутерброды. И вот как все это съесть? Удивительным оказалось и то, как часто мы пьем чай. После учебы в Петрозаводске этот напиток стал одним из любимых у Мартины из Австрии.

Однако наибольшее затруднение у иностранцев вызвало то, что многие люди в городах России (Санкт-Петербург, Петрозаводск) не знают английского языка. Узнать дорогу у встречного прохожего оказалось не так просто. Каково это потеряться?

Чтобы исправить эту ситуацию и при случае не оставить в беде растерявшегося иностранного «студента», приходите в Центр «Инициатива» изучать новые языки, а если нет времени, но есть огромное желание практиковать иностранный язык, приходите в наше «языковое кафе» для взрослых.

А если вы готовы поспорить с утверждением, что жители Петрозаводска не знают язык, и считаете, что «студентам» просто не посчастливилось встретить на улицах города вас, присоединяйтесь к нам и будьте волонтером!

В любом случае не упустите свой шанс попрактиковать язык!

Мы всегда рады вам! Приходите в Центр «Инициатива» по адресу пр. К. Маркса 20, телефон: 67-18-81

What do foreigners think about Kizhi?

There is nothing to add...
"Kizhi was probably the most unique place I have every been to. This is apparent as soon as you step off the ferry and catch a glimpse at the giant wooden church down the shoreline. During your time on Kizhi you'll learn a lot about life on the island--from orthodox religion to everyday tasks of men and women. All the while you'll be surrounded by picturesque views of Lake Onega and the beautiful architecture. Kizhi is one those rare places that is peacefully simplistic yet enchantingly complex at the same time. I really had a wonderful time!" - said Caroline
