Как русские встречают весну. How Russians meet spring. • Сосулька (сосульки) (femin.) [sa-sul'-ka (sa-sul'-ki)] Icicle(s) 🔻This noun comes from сосу‌ля [sa-su-lya] (something you can suck—originally a pacifier, then candy) → from соса‌ть (to suck). The name transferred from suckable thing to icicle because of the shape and, let's be honest, because children love to suck on them! #just_a_joke #useful_vocabulary 🟠RCR | Support | Boost
