Here Is My Test

To the next lesson

Izvolite moj test means “Here is my test”. The sentence builds directly on the passport phrase; only the last part is new.

The officer receives your test, looks at you and asks whether everything is all right – and drinks his litre of tea again, the familiar image for izvolite. On the cup is the moon, and on it a hedgehog is doing a fitness test: moon and hedgehog give you moj, while the test speaks for itself.

Because you already know two of the three words, this sentence takes a single minute – and from here on that happens more and more often.
