    Difficulty logging into "Pen-Pals" function...

    Hi! I'm new to this site, and set up my membership yesterday. My general login seems to work, but when I try to log into "Pen-Pals", which I also set up yesterday, I can't login. So, I tried to create my membership there again, but I can't because the system does have my email address registered. I also changed my password from the system generated one, but maybe that did not "take". I guess I'll see if the system generated password works. I thought of this while typing, but I see no way to cancel this post, so... here it is.

    Welcome to the forum!
    Unfortunately I can't help you with "Pen-Pals".

    Computer translators are not good. They translate a word after a word, and the translation usually doesn't make any sense. Your sentence must be as:
    Привет! Я ищу людей, чтобы обменяться адресами электронной почты для того, чтобы изучать русский язык.

    Thank you for better translation!!!

    Marina,

    Thank you for the improved translation of my intended message! It will be a month or so before I can begin to feel comfortable in translating simple messages myself. It would be sooner if I could study full time, but I cannot...

    Just out of curiosity, I went to the one free translation site that I know of, and used it to translate your Russian text to English. Here is what the translation came out as:

    "Greetings! I search for people to exchange e-mail addresses to study Russian"

    Your text: Привет! Я ищу людей, чтобы обменяться адресами электронной почты для того, чтобы изучать русский язык

    The site I used is: http://translation2.paralink.com/

    I realize the limitation of computer translators... I just wanted some text in Russian Cyrillic in my message! When I can, I will create my own message. Hopefully fairly soon.

    Thanks again! Oh, and I got a message from the MR tech support people saying that I should be able to log onto "Pen-Pals" now, so I'm going to give it a try!

    - Carl
