Thread: Self-teaching to a proficient level

Проблема в том, что...
"Идти на другую страну " is about military action.
Before чтобы in most cases a comma to place you need.
У меня другое предложение..
Если вы будете уделять достаточно времени изучению языка, используя все инструменты, вы можете преуспеть.

Спасибо за поправки

I find it hard to learn a language by youself. You really need someone that is native to help you out in the shortest time. I wish I have a native russian friend to talk to

From my personal experience, I found out that reading, understanding and speaking are skills that are the easiest to develop when you learn a language by yourself and when you get the chance to live in countries where Russian is spoken. What I find hard is to develop writing skills, particularly writing eloquent and argumentated pieces of texts such as essays or text commentaries. Because of course, when you learn independently, there is hardly anyone to correct your сочинение...Would anybody have some tips on how to develop written Russian expression skills?

It's better to say "справитесь" or "У Вас всё получится"
Слово "спориться" is old-fashion word and not to be used in present time.

Medved means word "запороть" = ruin. He just change "и" to "e".
Я запорол экзамен - I did't pass exam.
It's informal and I will say "bad" word. You shouldn't use it especially in formal speach.

If I may:

Слово "спориться" is old-fashion word and not to be used in present time.

I do know the word "справитесь", so I guess I'll stick with it.

спорится (no ь sign, according to modern language rules) most commonly (maybe even exclusively) used with word работа. For example: У него любая работа спорится. Means whatever he does, he always does it perfect and professional. This word is old and unused.
My dictionary refers to an idiom: "He can't put a foot wrong". Not sure if it's widely known.

It comes from a word "спорый" which is old-fashion synonym for "быстрый" (fast/quick) or "ловкий"(inventive/skillful/crafty)
