    OK, so tell me why there is an ad for Russian Babes at the bottom of most of the MasterRussian pages?
    I'm easily amused late at night...

    Why do Russian women want to marry an American living in Russia? Because most American men living in Russia have jobs that generate a salary that is far above what most Russian men can earn, thus the wife and children of an American will have an easier life.

    Why do Russian women want to marry American men and move to America? American washing machines, dryers, dishwashers, cars, clean streets, big houses with 2 or more bathrooms, central heating and air conditioning, good jobs for women and all the things that make our lives easier that are out of reach for the average Russian housewife.
    Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore.

    That's true, but what if turns out that you can be poor in america too? that you will have to live a different life than you thought? What if they will need to live in a trailer? etc? There were stories about it already.

    Well I haven't met too many women who want to leave Russia so far. Well, except for my girlfriend who would like to live in Europe ....but she is not your average kettle of fish!

    I have long lists of Russian female friends and relatives who want me to find them an American husband.

    Alas, my AdMuncher effectively denies me the opportunity to view many instersting ads and of course I miss all the waiting, multicolored blinking and popping ads that used to bring so much fun in my life. I didn't even know that MR actually had any ads.
    Send me a PM if you need me.

    A Russian young girls believe a western country is like paradise. Some of them even trust cheaters and believe that they will get a good job in Turkey that they will work like top models. But real world is cruel so they become slaves and work like prostitutes.
    Now young girls reckon that _ hard work is a bad idea and a rich husband is a good idea. A Russian rich men is wanted by Russian girls as well as an American. But there are a lot of rich men in a western country, they think.
    If woman is 30 or older she has already lost that dream (maybe) so she is more realistic and clever.

    Thank Grogs and Matroskin Kot
    Could you correct my mistakes, please.

    Yes. Their mercenary tendencies have been growing.

    But it seems I've made some mistaks.
    Maybe I have to write "Now _ young girls reckon...", don't I?

    Yes. Their mercantile interests have 1 been growing.

    Maybe I have 2 to write "Now _ 3 young girls reckon...", don't I?
    1. You only form 've contractions with pronouns in written English.
    2. The word "have" here isn't an auxiliary verb, so it can't form a contraction.
    3. You can't use the article "a" in front of a plural noun (girls). You could leave out the article altogether, or you could use something like "some", "most", "many", or "a lot of".

    I know what this says at face value but I'm wondering if someone could clarify these 'lessons in life'?
    go in Russian and check by yourself... I have been in Russia several times and you will see it is just like anywhere else. A Woman's mind is a woman's mind. But as popular belief tells us Japaneese's wifes are the most docile in the world, russian's culture give russian women good traits as well. I think the educated ones really put their intelligence to good use. And they enjoy being a woman at the same time.

    No, it was better the first time. Just omit 'a' before "hard work". "Work" is not countable, and therefore can never take the indefinite article.

    Also, "mercenary" is a better choice than "mercantile" and "tendencies" than "interests".

    Чирз!
