Perhaps this should be moved to the new audio lounge?

moved :D
щотка must be spelled as щётка
Is there a word еще ??
Or is it ещё?

There's ещё in Russian. But sometimes people don't feel like using the letter ё and write е instead of it. As far as I am aware, Karamzin, a Russian writer/(maybe)philosopher, was the first to add the letter ё to the Russian alphabet.
sorry for the hassle I caused by posting it in the wrong section. :oops:
anyhow, yes, I meant ещё, but since my russian keyboard is weird and it doesn't always want to co-operate when it comes to writing the 'ё' letter (actually, hardly ever is a better one), and I was told that it's ok to write e instead, I just wrote еще.
MasterAdmin - thanks for correcting that, I didn't realize :)
Nobody writes ещё whether in books, news papers, and else.Quote:

I wouldn't worry too much over whether or not to write ё. Writing essays in Russian, I prefer not to use it simply because text seems more formal without ё. Don't forget that you must pronounce it.
Here you are:Quote:

I used to think this. But having been to Russia it was written Ё alot more than you would think.Quote:

Also I heard that when people write they add the dots more often than in printing.
So when people say "In Russia they NEVER write ё, they are exagorating."
Write ё everytime. There are so many things to get confused with without the dots. Ё must have its credit as the letter of our alphabet. I always write or type it. I also have a program to search all e's in a text and replace them with ё's. That's the passion of mine for the letter that has gone too far! :b
Just think of the difference these two little dots can bring forth:
давайте все передохнём. Давайте все передохнем.
Huh?
The word еще as a particle had been in use long ago. Now it is completely ousted with ещё.Quote:

HA-HA!!!!! :lol: That's so funny! Like I said, I sometimes avoid writing the letter ё because, to my way of thinking, ё makes text seem more informal.
It's a strange viewpoint. Who told you that?Quote:

Fortunately in Ukrainian they aren't lazy, and always distinguish І and Ї.
Also in Belorussian, the dots are compulsoary. But who speaks that anyway.
That drives my thinking to that that people stick to the past more often and with great strength. The history of planet Earth and almost every inhabitant so far. It takes a lot to change one's mind, that I wanted to say.Quote:
