The original last sentence

is incorrect. It does not contain any "как". It is not clear that the author implied such a grammar. Even if he did implied such a construction it does not fit the preceding sentence. So the only correct version. which fits the text is provided by Marcus and Alexsms.

Но я знаю, что Москва - большой город.

What's been providing Marcus is quite obscure to me.
Just add a comma after Москву to the sentence and it would go. Do you think "Что можно сказать про Москву, большой город." is incorrect?
And "В классе расписание." without context quite work.
- Где рассписание?
- В классе расписание. (or рассписание в классе)

Hey all!!! Thank you very very much for the quick answer It helped me a lot, and I see what mistakes I made. In the sentence with the class, I forgot the word "висит". So it's "В классе висит расписание". I think this would be correct?

Also the last sentence is (in german):
Ich war noch nicht in Moskau. Aber ich weiß, dass Moskau eine große Stadt ist.

in English:
I haven't been to Moscow yet. But I know, that Moscow is a big city.


So if I write it with a comma, does it work?
Like:
Я ещё не был в Москве, но я знаю, что Москву большой город.


And would it better to write:
У Москы есть Кремль, музеи, школы, библиотеки, ...
?

That's not just about a comma ... Here I'd write:
Я ещё не был в Москве, но я знаю, что это большой город.

No, "У Москвы есть" would work with intangible things but not with objects that are placed somewhere.

This one is correct.

This Russian translation is correct. But it doesn't matter whether you write it in one (with a comma) or two sentences.

No, the correct version was mentioned above "В Москве есть Кремль, ..."

Wow that's a great explantation!!! Thank you very much
