    English online

    Does anyone know of free courses online for Russians to learn English from the basics? I've googled fruitlessly. Thanks!

    Please be sure to replace the batteries for the rock periodically. Failure to do so will result in its self-destruction and nuclear annihilation of Moscow. Thank you and have a nice day!
    Заранее благодарю всех за исправление ошибок в моём русском.

    I always love to hear "have a nice day" at the end. Is it an American thing to end a sentence up like this?

    Its not at all unusual to end a conversation with 'have a nice day' or 'evening' or whatever else.

    I understand that. What I meant was the indirect meaning. It sounds fine in-BlackMage-wise-words-"ironical" sense.

    Could you explain me what "fake rock" means in the sentence "The lessons and secrets can be sent via fake rock", and why I should replace batteries for (or in) the rock periodically?
