Crimea Does Nyet Pay
Folks don’t have a problem remembering how to say no in Russian. It’s a very simple Nyet. Perhaps to our ears, it sounds a bit blunt or rude. If you want to say “no” in Russian politely, all you have to do is add thank you after no, like you would in English or just like we do in Spanish. So, “No, thank you” in Russian will be nyet, ni nada, which means No, there is no need.
