What do these Russian terms mean?

Question

I need help understanding some common Russian terms. I see the following used many times in correspondence, but I am not sure if my online translator is mis-interpreting them, or I am just not relating to them in English properly....

Can someone explain what these terms actually mean?

Engaged - zanimalsya (example "4em v4era zanimalsya?"). Does it mean how were you busy, or what were you doing?

Borrowed - words like zanyat, zanyatoj (example "zanyat byde6")

Pancake - blim (example "da blin veselo")

Sat - posideli (example "posedeli horo6o")

Shower - dy6y or zakidyvat' (example "tolko lubov dy6y terzaut")

Seagull - 4ajku (example "mojet 4ajku?")

Answer 1

"zanimatsya" it means to do something.

"chem vchera zanimalsya" - what were you doing yesterday

"zanyat" and "zanyatoy" are 2 completely different words.

"zanyat" - to borrow. It is mostly used with the meaning to borrow money. "zanyat dengi", "vzyat v zaimi" - more colloquial.

"zanyatoy" -  means busy. "zanyat budesh" - will you be busy?

"blin" - direct meaning of this word is pancake. But it is often used to emphasize the meaning of the sentence. It is difficult to find synonim in English. Maybe "****". But blin can be used with both positive and negative meaning. "da blin veselo" we really have fun. But you need the context to fully nderstand what the person wanted to enphasize with this word.

"posideli", "posideli horosho" means people gathered together and had a party. "horosho" means good

"dy6a" is soul. "tolko lubov dy6y terzaut" means that the person is suffering from love

"4ajku" is colloquial form of the word "4ay" - tea. "mojet 4ajku" means would you like to drink some tea? or let's have tea
