🐶A dog-scooterist was spotted in St. Petersburg - the furry one took away a kid's ride.The only scooter rider we approve of! 🔥Some linguistic stuff you can skip: • Отжать (perf.) [at-zhat'] 1) Towring smth dry 2) To take away / to steal / to jack 🔻Originally, отжать meant to squeeze out (like juice from a fruit). In 1990s slang, it took on the meaning of to squeeze something out of someone - hence, to take or steal. 🔻This is not the same as украсть (to steal quietly). Отжать has an edge of open, cheeky, or semi-forceful taking. Often used for comedic effect. Example: • Хвостатый отжал у ребёнка средство передвижения. The furry one took the kid's ride. No guilt. Just fur and determination. #news #spoken_Russian 🟠RCR | Support | Boost
