OK i have been invited to stay with my friend Anastasija in Uzhnaya Moscow. . but i am going to go next year!! ok what will i need etc. .as i will be staying with them!?
Will i need a visa. . is there anybody i need to contact first or?
Help help please tell me all i need to know and not a general conversation here haha, also i will be leaving to go there from Britain
I wonder, what "Uzhnaya Moscow" mean.
Паша, находясь в Белоруссии очень просто узнать, что нужно для поездки в России. В крайнем случае можно зайти в любое турагентство.
И еще, очень некорректно после to going to (в значении собираться) употреблять глаголы движения типа: to go, to come, to leave. Достаточно просто употребить эти глаголы в форме Сontinuous
Южная?Quote:

Quite. What a strange thing to write Elena.Quote:

On the contrary, had he used 'will' rather than 'going to' in that context, it would have been at best misleading.
I am very much surprised, because this rule I take from the textbook of grammar for Russian. And it seems to me, that phrase "going to go" is the same as in Russian "масло маслянное".
Nevertheless thanks for your explanations.
Уou are never late to learn.

I don't read much, I've read only a few books by Salinger, Elmore Leonard, Johm Grisham. And I liked all of them.Quote:
