Counting money and asking price in Russian | Nouns after numbers in Russian
Whether you are renting a hotel room or picking up some souvenirs for friends, you want to know the price. In Russian, it’s easy to ask how much something costs using the phrases:
-- Сколько это стоит?
(How much is it?)
-- Сколько стоит + [nominative singular noun]
(How much is …?)
For example, Сколько стоит бутылка воды?
(How much is a bottle of water?)
42,00 руб.
-- Сколько стоят + [nominative plural noun]
(How much are …?)
For instance, Сколько стоят эти сувениры?
(How much are these souvenirs?)
150,00 руб.
