LangolingBody parts
When traveling to Russia or other Russian-speaking countries, knowing basic body parts in Russian (such as голова [head], рука [arm], and нога [leg]) can greatly enhance communication. For instance, being able to ask for directions using simple vocabulary like where is the голова of the train station (где голова станции?) or point out a map with your arm (рука) can make interactions more natural and engaging.
In healthcare settings, familiarity with body part terms in Russian is particularly useful. A patient might say “моя нога болит” (my leg hurts) to a doctor who understands the word нога [leg]. This knowledge also helps during self-care, such as following instructions from a medical professional or reading basic health information on signs and pamphlets.
