遊び？なにそれおいしいの？

Игра? Что это такое? Это съедобно?

解説

## 🇷🇺 Russian

### 1. **Игра?**
– **Meaning**: “A game?” or “Play?”
– **Syntax**: Single noun in nominative case.
– **Grammar**:
– **Игра** is a feminine noun meaning “game” or “play.”
– Here it’s used as an isolated noun — a rhetorical question or an echo, expressing curiosity or disbelief.
– No verb is present; the intonation and context imply an interrogative attitude.

### 2. **Что это такое?**
– **Meaning**: “What is this?” or “What is it exactly?”
– **Syntax**: Interrogative pronoun + demonstrative pronoun + intensifier.
– **Grammar**:
– **Что** – interrogative pronoun meaning “what.”
– **Это** – neuter demonstrative pronoun meaning “this/it.”
– **Такое** – neuter adjective-like word meaning “such,” used here to emphasize the type or nature of the thing.
– **Structure Notes**:
– This is an idiomatic phrase. The addition of **такое** adds flavor — a sense of bewilderment or puzzlement. Without it, “Что это?” simply asks “What is this?”

### 3. **Это съедобно?**
– **Meaning**: “Is this edible?”
– **Syntax**: Subject + predicate adjective (used predicatively).
– **Grammar**:
– **Это** – demonstrative pronoun, subject of the sentence.
– **Съедобно** – short-form neuter adjective meaning “edible.”
– Russian often omits the copula verb “есть” (to be) in the present tense, so “Это съедобно” is equivalent to “Это есть съедобно,” which would sound archaic or overly formal.
– **Note**: The sentence is grammatically complete, even with just a pronoun and an adjective — a very Russian feature!
