What's wrong with that?

My Lingvo says that it CAN be brown bread, too.

the author of the quiz apparently does not realize that "anecdotes" are not the same thing in English and Russian either.
oh, and i have no BRS.

I'm too lazy to take the quiz. What's that say about my Russian Soul?
Ooh, I just found that underline button. I'm gonna underline things more often.

Don't underline everything, it looks awful.

Your so-called "soul" earned 0 out of five troika matreshki.

You are utterly devoid of Russian soul. You are so far removed from my Russian nature that I'm surprised you can even understand me when I speak English to you. I pity you.

You have earned 1 out of five Elvis impersonator matreshki.

However, you have made a mighty effort to understand the Big Russian Soul. I salute your effort even as I pity your inevitable ignorance.

I have way too much time on my hands...
