    Well, you're from the USA. That explains everything... and why you can't type in Russian either. Wonderful, where in the USA are you living now?

    Right. I read the original text in Russian once again now and understood that I might have translated it incorrectly.

    The preposition 'v' means 'in' here but I translated it as 'iz'. It may be correct in a different situation, though.

    P.S. It doesn't make much difference Both sentences are ok.
