- “In Ukraine” or “In Ukraine”
When referring to a country, the preposition “c” is usually used. However, in the case of Ukraine, we are talking about an exception to the rules, so the norm in Russian should be considered the option “in Ukraine”.
- “From Ukraine” or “from Ukraine”
Based on the first point, if the correct option is “in Ukraine”, then the only correct one is to write and say “from Ukraine”. Traditionally, this is the case, but according to the rules, the option should be different. - "In Kemerovo" or "in Kemerovo"
In Russian, nouns-toponyms with endings in -ovo /-evo, -ino /-io are inclined. To find out the correct ending, simply connect with the word “city”. It will turn out “in the city of Kemerovo”, which means that the letter “e” also ends.

There is an opinion that the word “extreme” in the sense of “last” began to use those whose activities are associated with risk – employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations, extreme tourism, aviation. For fear of causing trouble, they did not call departure, departure or other action the last. Later it spread to other superstitious people as well as those who communicated with them. "Extreme" means only the location - the one with the edge. Although the expression “found the extreme” in colloquial speech also has a right to exist. However, it is correct to write or say “who is last in line”.

You need to be able to ask for money in debt correctly, especially if your lender is a philologist with experience. Many people don’t see the difference between “borrowing” and “borrowing.” But it is: “to borrow” means “to take”, and “to borrow” means “to give”. Therefore, saying “borrow money” or “borrow me” is wrong. The right thing to do is “lend me money” or “lend me money.”

This is a very simple mistake, but what a frequent one! In the first option, the wrong case is simply chosen, because it is correct to say “how much time”. Many young men do not know this and, getting acquainted with the old-fashioned way, immediately betray their illiteracy. By the way, the earlier popular phrase was “What time is it?”. - "Good day" or "Good day"
Some will say that both phrases are correct, but they are not. The fact is that the genitive case in Russian is used only when saying goodbye: “good day” or “happy way”. But greeting a person, we are obliged to use the greeting only in the nominative case "good morning", "good evening" or "good day". If you communicate with the recipient, not knowing what time zone he is in, you can use the universal greeting: "Hello", "Hello" or "Good day".
