Thread: Hello

Hello everyone. I'm Russian girl. I'm studying English. I read easy books, watch English movies and animation. I do not understand all of videos but some I can. I want to improve my English. I am glad to talk with English native speakers from others countries. I want to find a friend (or friends) for talk to. I need help.

My name is Olga. Nice to meet you!!!

Why someone who's name is Olga would call herself Luisa on a Russian/English speaking board?:

I don't know. I once registered on the website dairy.ru. Since then I have that nikname.

You think this place is that nasty?

Разве to have to применимо в этом контексте?

Hello Olga! Welcome to the forum! I hope you will find the help you need on here.
I'm an American girl; a native English speaker and I would be glad to help you! I have been wishing I had a Russian friend who is a girl. I will PM you.

"Well, my friend told me I must read a lot of books, watch a lot of videos, but I am not sure. I am reading, watching videos, but I cannot memorize some phrases ("and" is not needed) to speak English very well. Maybe I must to have a practice with native English speaker..."

Is there anything wrong with a girl simply wanting to be friends with another girl of a different country?? Excuse me, but I do have some friends who are Russian and they are MEN. And yes, I speak with them. Is there anything wrong with that?

Hi, people! I have a low level of my knowledge i n English and I want practice in it too.)))
