Hi! Russian is my native. I learn English. I searching for people who can help me. I'll help you in learning Russian. Answer me please in this topic.
Hi there! English is my native language, I can help you!
Have u got a skype? My skype is name-xru
You have a mistake in your signature. "Вы мне помочь" - ошибка. Вот варианты:
Вы мне помогаете, я вам помогу.
Если вы мне поможете, я вам помогу. - the best one
Вы можете мне помочь, я могу вам помочь.
No, but I will make a Skype considering that it will only take a few minutes.
How advanced are you with English? You seem to speak well.

It's not the best for Masterrussian for we do not operate the way: "Ты - мне, я - тебе". :oops:Quote:

Lampada. Your offer the best, I agree. It's steady expression in russian.
Demonic_Duck. I do many mistakes. I see. :( . Lets talk in Skype.
Kushnikov. You ask me about time of installing skype or talking in Skype a day (Спрашивал про время установки скайпа или про то, сколько мы будем разговаривать в день)? My english is pre-intermediate.

Lets choose a time and every day (or another order) get conversation in Skype, voice or text. I can every day (with few exceptions) in 8-11 PM (GMT +2). In this case we'll get great experience and help each other.
Also some questions about English short words, using in internet such as IMHO, WTF, U. List most popular of them please.
Great thanks
Internet acronyms:
LOL = Laugh Out Loud
LMAO = Laughing My A** Off

Demonic Duck, go Skype ;)
I like swimming or I like to swim?
Оба — хороши.
Я добавил тебя в друзья в Cкайпе.
"I like swimming" - if you really enjoy the process;
"I like to swim" - if you got used to it and just do it pretty often.
Subtle distinction, I'd say it depends more on context. The two sentences are basically interchangeable, unless you want to say (for example) "I like to swim once a week" or "I like to swim when I have the energy", in which case "I like swimming" would be wrong.
Judging by the results of the poll, the majority here seems to be tomatoes ))) I doubt vegetables are great teachers.
do English speaking people use perfect tences in casual speech?
I have used perfect tenses in casual speech many times... in fact, I have been using them for as long as I can remember! :D
What made you ask such a question? That's just like asking "do the Russians use Instrumental case in casual speech?". :DQuote:
