Imagine The apartment is not far from my work As I wanted From home To work You can get there on foot In half an hour How great And probably even faster You can get there by bike Yes I'm going to buy it in the spring True The apartment is not very large Only 30 square meters You have to think Where you can put the bike And how many You won't believe But even in such a small apartment There can be Two rooms There is a very small bedroom Living room A little bigger Small but cozy kitchen Toilet and bathroom Separately As I wanted Great, I would like that too And what floor? Third The windows go out into the yard In front of them A big tree Probably this is a rowan And also In the apartment there is a convenient open balcony On which As something tells me Absolutely empty Oh, and if this balcony Not busy Then right there You could put Your bike Well, no On the balcony I want to put A table A comfortable chair Put flowers there And hang garlands I will sit there Drink tea and read a book Cool And then it will snow And all this will be destroyed I did not think about it And what furniture Do you still need? To be honest I need almost all the furniture To equip the apartment Because Everything that is there now It is Fresh repair White walls Kitchen set A monitor And a mattress And no old Soviet walls You know I sometimes like Such retro furniture By the way Where are you going to look for furniture? Probably I will look for furniture On the Internet On the sites where people resell their things So cheaper And bookshelves Listen My friend is moving To another city soon I can ask What is he going to do With the unnecessary furniture Do not worry He does not have a grandmother's wardrobe And in general His apartment looks like Ikea catalog Sounds like What I need Please find out First of all I need a desk And a chair I can call my apartment Starting from August 1 I like That you already consider it Yours Do you need help with the move? Yes It is very necessary To carry all this heavy furniture To the third floor Thank you very much Nikita To the third floor without an elevator As it seems to me Not at all, Marina I'll write to you right away How to find out something about my friend's furniture OK Bye See you I want to do this Move again Well, Marina Let's choose Some words For analysis I would highlight the phrase Kitchen set In fact It can also be called Just a kitchen This is what you buy In the same Ikea Let's say Separately Box, sink Shelves Doors And the stove And collect it all In the kitchen Right? Probably I never used in my speech The word set Kitchen set This is such a word combination Which I usually saw Only in stores And just so I usually called it a kitchen I only know the word Furniture In the feminine Which means a set of headphones and microphones For communication Good clarification Another word Which I would highlight This is a table A table is a diminutive Affectionate form From the word table Well, a table is What you see In front of you And those who listen to it Can imagine that this is Such a thing On which you work Or eat And what else can be With a table in the expression? You can say Kitchen table Or bedside table Magazine table Yes, that is Depending on the location And the purpose of this item You can use The appropriate adjective What is a magazine table? For what? To put a magazine on it I think That a magazine table Also defines The shape of this table Because As a rule Maybe you will correct me if I am wrong As a rule A table is a small table Which is lower than We are used to Expect from an ordinary table Yes, by the way, it is also important That a table When we say a table, not a table We mean That this is a small table Not like A kitchen table or a desk An empty apartment So there is no furniture in it Also Empty Can be used in a transitive sense For example You have an empty look Empty means Absent As if you are flying In the clouds You are not here But you are thinking about something And looking into nowhere Just in front of you There is also the expression Empty conversation Or empty conversations It means conversations Without a special meaning Which lead to nothing Rather with a negative Colour, as it seems to me You can also highlight To look for furniture You can, for example, use the word To look for In the direct sense To look for something Let's say To look for an apartment To look for your glasses Or In the transitive sense To look for your place in life To look for Yourself To look for your profession Okay I think To look for does not change It changes from a set of dependent words We can cut it out We'll see I would like to pay attention To the expression To look for an apartment Because to look for In the direct sense For me it is rather To go somewhere physically To look for something That rolls For example To look for a car in the canal Or It is also used as an expression To look for someone It means That you are going For example, by car Or by motorcycle You get to some point Where you take a person You put him in your car Or on a motorcycle And then you go somewhere with him Together It means that you stopped by For a person When it comes to To stop by an apartment Of course, you can stop by To stop by an apartment for a minute To take forgotten keys But In itself, such an expression To stop by an apartment Most often means That you move With all your things And settle in a new apartment And live there for some time And therefore sometimes Even ask How long have you stopped by Or entered the apartment We also mentioned Two rather Contextual expressions Which Perhaps are not so often used In modern Russian This is Soviet wall And grandmother's closet In fact It's about the same More about The history of these So-called Soviet walls And grandmother's closets We will tell you In our usual episode In bonus issue Which is available For our paid subscribers And now Very briefly I will say That grandmother's closet It's a little bit Despicable expression To the old, no longer modern And not fashionable Soviet furniture As a rule It was a wall Not literally a wall And the wall was called Such a set Just a set Of shelves And some other Details of this closet Which stood in the apartment Right next to the wall And due to the fact that A lot of different items It allowed to save space In such a small room I never used This word I used the expression Grandma's closet Quite a lot No Rather Soviet furniture We had on the move And it's always something Very heavy Very massive Some dark brown Color Such a crushing On you Furniture with its heavy look And style After which I really want to live In a completely empty room That is, it is the complete opposite Furniture from Ikea Probably But one day Ikea will start to release Such closets Let's read the dialogue Again Hello, Marina! How are you? Hello! Everything is fine! I have, by the way, There is news I finally found a new apartment And I'm moving soon I just need to buy Furniture there Oh! This is interesting!
