I can't work out what this sentence means because I can't find that word anywhere. Can anyone help?
А теперь я немного потренируюсь в английском
All I can get is: And now I *do something* a little in Russian :?
Thanks

потренироваться= the perfective (I guess) of тренироваться : to practise, to train.
It's a russified loan word - look at the stem: потренироваться....
:wink:
Thank you!!! :D
That makes sense now. And oh yeah, I didn't notice the stem. Thanks BabaYaga

I have my bright moments - alas, they are few and far between! :lol:

Actually, I dont think that its a perfect form of "тренироваться"Quote:

it usually uses with adverbs like "немного, чуть чуть, слегка" which mean that action will be carrying out not thoroughly.
perfect form is "натренироваться"
Oh, OK - thanks, Chuvak!! :D
