    EGG, we can help you learn Russian so that you can read these personal messages yourself without us.

    Like the first word: inogda

    this word is a pretty common word in Russian and if you knew that

    Иногда = sometimes and how to pronounce иногда, you could easly find out that inogda = иногда = sometimes.

    What kind of person writes in a language to another person, knowing the other person doesn't speak the language she's writing in, and asks that the recipient both understand and reply? While an occasional drunk-sms or something in a foreign language happens - this seems pretty strange. I mean, what happens when you guys hang out? When she speaks russian, do you tell her to transliterate it so you can post it on MR so strangers can translate your relationship?

    Presumably this is a Russian lady-friend who speaks no/little English commnicating with her English-speaking friend who knows no/little Russian.
    Заранее благодарю всех за исправление ошибок в моём русском.

    Pretty natural. She wants him to be able to express himself in his own language and she in her own language. This also forces her to learn English and him Russian. The only problem is that he is too lazy to learn Russian and comes here!

    The first step should be to post these messages in Cyrillic instead of that stupid translit bullshIt!


    EEG please, at aleast, learn the Russian alphabet and enable cyrillic on your computer!

    That proves two things as always:

    1.You must learn Russian (at least the basic) and stop write these annoying letters and wasting others' time.
    2.She must learn English (at least the basic) and stop write these annoying letters and wasting others' time.
    3. (oh I said two things, nevertheless) if you will not do that then how do you imagine you will converse with each other without our help? You will be obligated to invite some Russian to your meetings, then in your badroom, then some Russian will translate what she says and what you answer at your wedding:
    she: Да!
    you: God what did she say?write! hurry up!
    she (writes with shaking hands): da!
    you: I need a Russian guy! Please translate what she said!! Hurry!!
    Then one of us appears and tells you she said NO! hiding his cruel smile.
    your life is broken! She refused you before the altar treshold right during your wedding!

    and the fourth: the way you and your gf behave shows that you do not care that you both waste our time and traffic! You simply think that there are quite a lot of people who will do your job for you! Nobody needs that but you!
    ....

    Thank you very much for correcting my errors guys!
    Я так думаю.

    You corrected "bedroom" without highlighting it -- and that was the best part : the "badroom." Is he being punished for not speaking Russian? (I'm not laughing at your English skills Leof, it was just a funny error )
    Заранее благодарю всех за исправление ошибок в моём русском.

    I think he meant to write "badroom".
