it is funny that you use the word bruderschaft in russian. It is a german word and its really funny to see it in cyrillic letters ;-)

Angela replies:
Yes, it's always funny to see habitual words written by an unfamiliar alphabet. I smile when I see "babushka", "sputnik" in place of "бабушка" or "спутник" and so on :))

Its not only seeing that you wrote it in cyrillic. Its also funny because "Bruderschaft" is one of the last words I thought to be known also by its meaning in your country. Or is this word only used for the ritual of drinking something, arms crossed, with another person?

Usually "Bruderschaft" means the ritual of drinking, but I know the main meaning because I speak German :))
More than 2 million Germans lived in the Russian empire. Actually there are lots of words came from German into Russian, e.g. "камрад", "натюрлих", "дас ист фантастиш" :))) Some of them have changed their original meaning, some not.

That is really interesting to see that also phrases are used - I didn't knew this before. So thank you for telling me all this. ;-)
Did you learned german in school? I learned russian in school, I can still read it but it is too long ago and I after finishing school I hadn't a possibility to speak it. This is really sad. Russian is a beautiful language, but also really difficult I think.

Thank you for your interest :)
I learned German at university, it was my second main subject (after history). I also learned in Berlin (Humboldt) as Austauschstudentin. I really love German language and Germany on the whole, it's my favourite country (after Russia ;)) There some photos from that time on my page.
