Did you know?
- If you were to order these in a very traditional Russian setting, you might find the term куриные котлетки (chicken cutlets) used instead of the Westernized 'nuggets'.
- The word наггетсы is a direct loanword from English, meaning it is phonetically adapted rather than translated into a Russian description.
- Russian speakers often use the word наггетсы alone without the adjective куриные because it is widely understood that nuggets are made of chicken.
