I merely mean to say that my russian is so poor that it takes so long to write correctly
Тяжело в учении - легко в бою!
To learn Russian, for example. And to treat his megalomania.Quote:

Come on, it's hard only in the beginning, the more you post the less time it takes.Quote:

TATY, as for you, you seems pretty good in theory and what's the point to know but not to use it?
basurero, good job man, keep up posting in Russian, you're getting better!
PS: it could be 4 posts and I got 4 more points but what the heck, who cares about the post number.
лучше так, имхо %))Quote:

It's a matter of picking up a toolbox of phrases and expressions that come out automatically, and then you only stop to think of one word or two to convey the precise meaning.
I am good on grammar, but when it actually comes to writing coherent stuff, not so much. I will endeavour to write more по-русски.Quote:

kalinka_vinnie basurero guys your Russian seem very good! Honestly! I don't know why do you write in it so rarely!
Write on more you both are in few steps to write like local natives!
:idea: :!: :)
edited with help of Alex. Thank you!
That should be "seldomly", but I'd put "rarely".Quote:

This forum provides you with the great chance to practice your Russian. Don't be afraid of your errors. Ultimately, we aren't afraid of our mistakes in English. I don't think that there's a single Russian on the forum who speaks excellent English. We all sometimes make mistakes.
As for Dimitri's huge number of posts in such a short period of time, it, imo, doesn't amount to a great deal if he posts the way someone's already mentioned. I mean that he posts a few replies when it's possible to post just one.
Вот - на русском написал.Quote:

Вы уже забыли писать по-русски, что-ли? 8)
Походу да :)

He might mean вы забыли что надо писать по-русски.
Why походу should be written separately?
Ты имел в виду, что они забыли как писать на русском?Quote:

Кстати, Leof:
Не считая эту фразу, твой английский всегда очень хорош!Quote:
Write more, you both are a few steps from writing like local natives!
:D :wink:
:D :P :lol: :D
thank you basurero! Such pride and pleasure to feel when you hear something like this!
Talking about this topic - perhaps the way he did it was unusual, but Dimitri reached and got what he wanted - everyone is discussing him and paying him a lot of attention - isn't it a long wanted fame? If so - he deserved it! :lol:
I can't share some of his points, but I think he brought a bit of spice to this forum. The only thing which makes my brain stacked, and what I can't understand is the famous habit to leave clusters of posts in places where one would be enough - as you all mentioned.
Although, following the Dimitri's motto to treat everyone's feelings, I can say he succeeded here too! I like that guy - he always takes what he needs! :lol:
Lisa, thank you for help! :D

It may be well that his provoking behavior is given rise to by the feeling of inferiority complex. Maybe it is connected with his awkward age but I hope it will be over in the future. :lol:Quote:
