You know regional differences exist?

I am from Moscow, I had relatives from Ryazan and Verholensk, for me drovokol is a specialised axe for splitting firewood, lesorub (and it's forest+chop, not wood, wood is only called les by people who sell it, we buy drevesina) is a person who cuts trees in the forest as a job, drovosek is a person who cuts trees for firewood as a job, drovoseksual is a person sexually attracted to trees, and drovorub sounds like a word that somebody both from Verholensk and Ryazan could say.
- anonymfus 6y agoThinking about it more, trying to recall conversations with my father and actually reading the story I linked above, I feel that the difference between drovosek and drovorub is that drovosek's job is in the beginning of the process of turning trees into firewood, and drovorub is in the end. So drovosek turns trees into the firewood, and drovorub makes firewood into a proper size.
