learn_russianHello,
I am new to this community and hope to get a bit of insight from you. Recently, I heard a 'Russian Proverb' on an American television show. It was:
"In the kingdom of hope, there is no winter".
The Slavic department of Colorado University did not recognize it. I found a reference to it on a website, but there was nothing else. I have 3 questions.
1) Is this a legitimate Russian proverb?
2) If it is and you recognize it, would you please reproduce the phrase in Russian?
3) What is the context or meaning of the phrase? (Aside from it's use on American television.)
Thank You
Eric T.
