Highest, farthest and fastest


The poster from USSR times.

The 'normal' form of 3 advers is:
Высоко - high
Далеко - far
Быстро - fast

If we want to compare smth, we need a comparative form:
Выше
Дальше
Быстрее

But a soviet pilot should be the best, so a superlative form is essential:


Выше всех - the highest; higher, than anybody else
Дальше всех -
Быстрее всех
Всех (or всего if talk about unnimated things) is all, that needed to make a superlative form of adjective or adverb.

No entrance!


Вход - an entrance. This word is easy to meet on a metro station door or a shop door. Be carefull of mixing it with выход - the exit.

Запрещен - is forbidden. You can see this word in some other combinations, as фотосъемка запрещена (No photo!).

Посторонний means a person, who doesn't live or work here, an extraneous person

So, if you don't feel, you have a strong connection with the place, which door has such a sign, don't enter))
