🇷🇺 Кто сказал, что работа - это стресс? Мне всего 33, и я отлично себя чувствую!
[kto ska-zal, shto ra-bo-ta - e-ta stres? mne vsi-vo tri-tsat' tri, i ya at-lich-na si-bya chu-stvu-yu]
🇬🇧 Who said work is stressful? I'm only 33 and I feel great!
• Чувствовать себя (imperf.)
[chus-tva-vat' si-bya]
To feel
🔻 When talking about how you feel in Russian, a reflexive pronoun 'себя' (oneself) is used by all means:
• Как ты себя чувствуешь?
[ kak ty si-bya chus-tvu-yesh]
How are you feeling?/
How do you feel?
🔻Also a noun:
• Самочувствие (neut.)
[sa-ma-chus-tvi-ye]
The way one feels, health, the
state of well-being
🔻You can also use 'чувствовать' without 'себя' if you talk about other feelings (to feel something, to think, to believe):
• Я чувствую, что он прав!
[ya chu-stvu-yu shto on praf]
🇬🇧 I have a feeling/I believe he's right!

🔻In 1941, Vitya Cherevichkin was shot by the Germans, who got to know that he was hiding pigeons in his barn.
🔻The Nazi command ordered to get rid of all pigeons because the birds could be used to convey messages.
🔻Vitya hid the birds for a week, but was noticed and captured, interrogated and accused of collaborating with the Red Army.
🔻On the same day, the Germans were driven out of the city as a result of a successful counter-offensive by units of the Southwestern Front.
🔻A photograph of the murdered Vitya Cherevichkin with a dove in his hand, taken by the Soviet photojournalist M. V. Alpert, appeared at the Nuremberg trials.
