    Also we have люля-кебаб (I think it's from Armenia)

    It's forcemeat on a stick prepared on the live fire.

    unlike шашлык which is a solid pieces of meat.
    Send me a PM if you need me.

    Thanks for the explaination. I guess the double E got dropped for english usage over time, I've never seen it anywhere else.

    It hasn't really been dropped. I always use it, and I think people in general tend to.

    e.g. on Google there are 7,000,000 hits for Fianc

    This is hillarious! Check out what your search yeilded: http://www.fianceevisas.com/foreign-fiancee.html

    "Approximately 75% of the men who travel to a foreign country to meet their future wives (as outlined above) get engaged from their first trip."

    This is the bizarrest thing I've ever heard of. What makes a guy want to semi-randomly marry a girl that he can't even speak to? I assume the girl just wants to get to the US. I thought all the 'russian mail order bride' stuff you guys talk about was mostly a joke. And why are there no 'mail order husbands'?

    There are some. Way fewer than 'mail order wives', but there are some.
