  1. 1. What should happen after 1 million is reached?

      96
    • Count back down to 1 (then back up)

Grades

The grading system in Russia uses numbers 2 to 5:

  • 2, Β«Π½Π΅ΡƒΠ΄ΠΎΠ²Π»Π΅Ρ‚Π²ΠΎΡ€ΠΈΜΡ‚Π΅Π»ΡŒΠ½ΠΎΒ» β€”"fail", an F
  • 3, Β«ΡƒΠ΄ΠΎΠ²Π»Π΅Ρ‚Π²ΠΎΡ€ΠΈΜΡ‚Π΅Π»ΡŒΠ½ΠΎΒ» β€”a "just about satisfactory" mark, something like a C minus
  • 4, Β«Ρ…ΠΎΡ€ΠΎΡˆΠΎΜΒ» β€”a "good" mark, similar to a B
  • 5, «отли́чно»—an "excellent" mark, an A

Vauxhall is a car brand and is also associated with stations.

Is it a corruption of Volks Halle? Which sort of fits with the station building idea.

Maybe a myth that when the Russians visited England and were taken from Westminster to look at the new fangled railways and were taken across the river to see a railway station and they asked "what is this (building)?" And the reply was "Vauxhall" as they were stood in the station of the area of Vauxhall.

It wouldn't be the first time similar has happened. Suit in Japanese "sabiro" is a corruption of Saville Row the famous tailors street in London
