I think it's the right ring finger. In the movie Day Watch Kostya looks at a girl's right hand and sees a ring on the ring finger, so he asks her if she's married...

You are right. It's the right ring finger. I can tell you as a specialist. Are you going to invite a russian girl for diner?

Let's hope the next question will not be: If a Russian girl slaps me in the face, does that mean she loves me?

(and my answer would be: Бьёт, значит любит )

If she wears a ring on her left ring and/or middle finger, does that mean anything ?

BTW, can anyone translate the following into russian for me ?

There may be a very dangerous bird flu outbreak coming in China this spring, I think you should wait until the summer to visit there.

Этой весной в Китае возможна большая эпидемия птичьего гриппа. Я думаю, вам лучше подождать до лета (приехать летом).

Seems you have the corresponding experience ;)

Yes, I used to work in tourism.

Sorry, I should have written "Вам" with the capital letter, if you speak about 1 person. It's more polite.

Hmm I don't think I've ever seen "вам" capitalized.

Yeah, you typically capitalize the various forms of Вы in official speech. I didn't realize that at first either, though.

Then you've not read much Russian.

Well I have read a decent amount, perhaps I'm just not observant enough eh? But thanks for jumping to conclusions TATY. We always need someone like that around here.

Yes we do. Cos if the place was full of Unos it wouldn't be much fun.

No offence, but too much TATY's will blow this place out.

Damn right. There's only one TATY.

Well, I guess it is rather amusing watching you haze the noobs here and cut people down like chop suie (sp?)

Just as well then really.
