Russian Valentine's Day Wishes to a Woman

Valentine's Day - a holiday for lovers - the whole world celebrates it on the 14th of February. It started in USA in 1777, Europe - XIII century and Russia started to celebrate this holiday in early 1990-s. And it becomes a very cheerful event which gains popularity every year in Russia.

So, it might be a great idea for you to wish a Happy Valentine's Day to your Russian or Ukrainian woman. Here are some ideas of what you can write in your text message or a Valentine's card.
Also, it's always better to use a diminutive name for your beloved woman which you can find on this page with Russian women names.

And here are some nice names you can call your woman: Moya Dorogaya - My dear; Moya Lubimaya - My beloved one; Moe Solnyshko - My Sunny; Moi Kotenok - My Kitty;

First comes a transliteration of the wish, then comes a Russian to English translation of a little poem.

But here is the most simple wish: Happy Valentine's Day! - Russian Translation for that would be: С Днем Валентина! - transliteration - S Dnem Valentina!

___________________
Rozy Prekrasny,
Fialki Chisty,

Sahar zhe Sladok
Tak zhe, kak ty.

Here is the translation:

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Sugar is sweet;
And so are you.


___________________

Nastoyashego lubimogo trudno naiti,
no eshe trudnee uderzhat'.

It's really difficult to find a true love,
But it's even more difficult to keep that love fire.

____________________

this is a real good one, especially for a card

Ya otkrytochku takuju
Dlja nachala podpishu!
A pri vstreche zaceluju
I v ob'jat'jah zadushu!

First I will sign this card
And when we meet,
I will hug you really hard!
____________________

Segodnja ja lublu tebja bol'she, chem vchera,
no vse zhe men'she, chem budu lubit' zavtra.

Today I love you more than yesterday,
But it's still less than I will love you tomorrow.

____________________

Nasha lubov' - tvoi luchshii examen.

Our love - your best exam.

This is how you can wish a Happy Valentine in a joyful manner:

Vot kluchi ot moego serdca,
vospol'zuisja zhe imi,
poka ja ne smenil zamok!

Here is the key to my heart,
Come on use them
Before I change a lock!

Compliments For A Russian Woman or How To Make Her Smile...

If you communicated with a Russian woman, then you probably know already that there are quite a lot of culture differences between you two, right? There is something that you think is really funny, but it doesn't make her smile, I mean laugh from the bottom of her heart. That's fine, because many people experience that. I prepared some "compliments" that a woman with a good sense of humor will laugh out loud. Below you will find a Russian transliteration for you to send it to her via sms (text message), also there is an English translation of those jokes so that you understand what you are sending her:-) Be fun for her and joke as hard as you can!

I'm looking at you and I'm thinking: should I get some more to drink or I am already in love with you...
Vot smotrju ja na vas i dumaju: eshe vypit', ili vy mne uzhe nravites'...

_______________________________________________________________

Excuse me, do you believe in a love from a first sight or should I come in little bit later?
Izvinite, vy verite v lubov' s pervogo vzgljada ili mne zaiti popozzhe?
_______________________________________________________________

Where did you buy so thin and crooked stockings?A vy gde takie tonkie krivye chulki kupili?
_______________________________________________________________

Do you clean your teeth with Comet?A zuby vy "Kometom" chistite?
_______________________________________________________________

You are so sinuated! Now summersault for me!Vy takaja gibkaja! Nu-ka, perekuvyrknites'!
_______________________________________________________________

Please tell me this - is your sister pretty, or she resembles you?Skazhite, a sestra u vas simpatichnaja, ili na vas pohozha?
_______________________________________________________________

Girl, your eyes are so big that one can be drown in them... And one can hang himself on your nose...Devushka, u vas takie bol'shie glaza, chto mozhno v nih utonut'... A na nosu - povesit'sja...
_______________________________________________________________

You, girl, should walk on your hands having so pretty legs!
Vam, devushka, s takimi nozhkami nado na rukah hodit'!
_______________________________________________________________

Madame, you have such a perfume... Is it for an attack or a self-defence?
Madame, u vas takoi parfjum... Eto dlja ataki ili samooborony?
_______________________________________________________________

Oh boy, you have so pretty legs. One is better than another one.Nu i nozhki u vas. Odna luchwe drugoi.
_______________________________________________________________

Wow, you are just an angel. I hope you are without wings though...O, vy prosto angel. Nadejus', bez krylywek...
_______________________________________________________________

No, of course not! You don't seem to me "little bit silly." You are just a little bit smart!..Net, devushka, chto vy! Vy ne kazhetes' mne "nemnogo glupovatoi". Vy - nemnogo umnovataja!..
_______________________________________________________________

Hold on, madame, I will drink it up and I'm at your legs...Seichas dop'ju, madam, i ja u vashih nog...
_______________________________________________________________

Girl, you smell so good! What did you drink today?Devushka, ot vas tak prijatno pahnet! Chto vy segodnja pili?
_______________________________________________________________
THE END :)
