nyusha scared this babooshka - she didn't dare to leave her fence until i took the dogs away. i said 'they are good, they never bite'. and she answered 'how can you rely on them?' (разве на них можно надеяться?)

babooshka is one of the only russian words i know. what does it really mean?

an old woman

oh i thought it was the name of the dolls with many smaller dolls inside of it.

i know, and also kerchiefs. but that's ridiculous, because in russian bAbooshka (a stressed) is an old woman. or grandmother. bAba - is a rural word for 'woman', and 'babooshka' is an old woman

until they do.
