Thread: Здравствуйте, I'm a beginner

Hi, Robert. Do you know that Pushkin was African American (skin color)?

Hi Robert,
I'm newer to the site than you, so I can't typically welcome you
However, I can't hide my admiration towards your will and your effort.
It doesn't matter whether we catch up faster or slower, the most important thing is to keep our mind busy, not to let it "sleep".
So I guess you did the right thing and I'm sure that there are lots of people here that will prove helpful to you and in general to all of us, who want to learn russian.

нет, I've googled and read more about him. His great-grandfather, a favorite of Peter the Great, was Ethiopian and now I've a net photo. Nice fellow he was, in trouble of one kind or another so I'm sure he and I would have been friends, hahaha. My school days and his school days seem ........................well.................remar kably the same, hahaha, in general ways.

Either way, I thought it was really funny!

Кстати, вот портрет Пушкина...

Прадед Пушкина Ибрагим Петрович Ганнибал был просто африканец, принц. Учился во Франции. Ганнибал, Абрам Петрович — Википедия

Теперь Вы знаете как учителя в русский школах пытаются научить биографии этого великого поета русских школьников, которые не интересуются литературой. Вот видите, я Вас также заинтересовал, что и заставило Вас заГУГЛить информацию о Пушкине А.С.

I hope, my last two posts explaned you some our traditoins and sense of humor our school teachers
