Although Ramil's English is a hundred times better than mine, for instance, he still can make mistakes, can't he? Errare humanum est!

In fact, I make many mistakes, especially when I'm just expressing myself and not carefully translating some paid translation order.
Sleeping for 2-3 hours a day is bad for your/one's health though so I don't do that often.

Unless they are something like red mixed with blue.
