historical means:
1. belonging to history; in contrast to legend or fiction; real,
not imaginary
- a historical event/figure (= person)/novel/play
2. connected with history as a study
- historical approach (= ïîäõîä)/development/study/
research/records/process/evidence
Either historic or historical can be used with one and the
same word. Thus, the Battle of Stalingrad was a historical event
(it really happened) and also a historic event (it had an influence
on Russian history)
NOTE: In some cases neither historic nor historical is used,
but history as an attribute:
- the History faculty/department
- a history book (= textbook)/lesson, class, lecture, exam,
student, teacher.
II. To congratulate – ïîçäðàâèòü, ïîçäðàâëÿòü

that has happened to them.

2. to have pleasure and pride in oneself for smth successfully

To congratulate in English is much narrower in meaning than
the Russian «ïîçäðàâèòü» and is used in reference to a personal
achievement or an importance event in private life, for
example:
- to congratulate smb on graduating from an institute/getting
a medal, prize/smb’s marriage, promotion, engagement/
passing the exam/winning the competition/the birth of
smb’s son, etc.
In colloquial speech use the word congratulation:
E.g. Congratulations on passing your exams!
your marriage!
your coming-of-age!
