Interesting facts about Russian (in Russian)

I found this rather interesting. I never heard or read anything this funny yet informative about peculiarities of Russian when went to school. Might be somewhat hard to read if you aren't at the advanced level yet...

Awesome reading, thanks a lot!!!

There was one point I would disagree with the author, about verb вызревать (to ripen). He writes, that "мы вызреваем" is senseless. I disagree. Imagine that Alice in Wonderland asks bulbs of cheese: вы вызреваете? They would have no choice but to answer: да, мы вызреваем.

I may also disagree with the author in that it's correct to stress 'и' in 'поместишься'.
I can't imagine anyone saying "ты там не поместишься". In my opinion, "поместишься" is the only correct form.

Yeah. The new writing/pronunciation is officially accepted as a rule, if I'm not wrong, when more than 60% or people use it. But the question is, how often do they make this studies? Maybe поместишься should be the rule already?

It's really interesting publication, but the word “новозвательный” must be spelled without hyphen. This passage disappointed me completely.
