Thanks, Barmaley! Now I get it.

TATY, thank you!
And what if a foreigner says "wanna"? Is it acceptable?

OK, but nobody has answered yet about "wanna". Is it the same case as здрасьте "zdras'te" in Russian -- everybody says it but nobody writes it?

capecoddah, thanks for the links! The sites are really interesting.

Brml, smth -- looks like something written in hebrew :lol:

It's not me!! :o It's Chuvak who used it! :)
But I think I know the reason for using "smth" - it's one of the most popular words in any English-Russian dictionary :)


(Sigh...)

There will always be some "auththars" :lol:

ancestry, thank you for your explanation.


Especially if you're a foreigner, it would just sound strange then.[/quote]

Oh I see what you mean.
Funny, but foreigners (everywhere) just love...

Say, U2 "Ain't love the sweetest thing".
By the way, what about "wanna" and "..don't.. no more"?

OK, thanks.
Does it sound uneducated when it's used in songs?

Can I use it when I'm talking to elder persons?
