    Attention: YOUR advice needed!

    :D oo-praj-neh-neeh-yeh... That's not the most difficult one by far.. Quite easy: uprajnenie. If you are interested - keep trying, and you will surely succeed. I have known many foreigners who spoke Russian quite good. Most of them had Russian wives though...

    Attention: YOUR advice needed!

    I see. That depends on what you want to get to: to learn from a book is OK for reading and writing, if you read books and write letters in addition to learning - that had been my way in English once. But to speak without speaking practice one must be a language genius. You may be one, of course...

    Attention: YOUR advice needed!

    I'll be staying in Thistle Hyde Park. If Her Majesty lets me in, of course... You speak Russian?

    Attention: YOUR advice needed!

    As it is known, Moscow (Russia) is not the best place to buy the latest books in English. It also happens to be a place where I live. And in 10 days or so I plan to be in London. So would you care to suggest the best 10 books I should buy during my stay there? I mean the latest books, of...

    Hello from Russia!

    Err... That's exactly what some people I knew were used to do... Ha... I do not remember if Adams had used it somewhere... It would have fitted smoothly in some far-away planet's language... And how "vzbzdnoot'" grabs you? It is one of the words we use for "to fart". I think yes. You know...

    Art projects

    I hope yes. But I would rather say that to know author intentions was important for better perception of an art object. Of course everybody is free to guess that some author just tried to make an elephant out of a fly, telling lots of ideas supposedly contained in, say, a stained bottle of...

    OK, thanks, I will really having a holiday tomorrow... So I do not expect to get here...

    Art projects

    Know what? That would be my kind of show. Cannot make myself stop liking young beautiful flesh. Really, I have had a very lengthy discussion on one of our Russian forums - Ekaterinburg one. E1. My opponent's point of view had been that the only sense that could be found in an object (any...

    Hello from Russia!

    That's OK, I would not have dared to read so much myself being in your shoes... I mean if I came after these many pages were completed - it's one chance in a hundred that I would have try to read all of it...

    Hello from Russia!

    Yes, but it isn't the Golden Ring. It is really the Garden Ring, as it originally consisted of boulevards with trees in the middle. The Golden Ring is a ring of our ancient cities not far from Moscow - these we visited last May: Suzdal, Vladimir, Pereyaslavl Zalessky, Yuriev Polski, Sergiev...

    Hello from Russia!

    OK, thanks. Really, I've worked as a translator when my knowledge of English had been much worse than now. Of course, I translated for Turkish people, so our knowledge had been roughly the same... I knew it really. Ehh, less reason to boast of something special... I knew some Arabs, who told...

    Hello from Russia!

    Hello, Idun, thanks for comment. :) You are not the first to tell me so...

    Hi from TR

    OK, so I still remember something from my Turkish... :)

    I would like to hear your opinion on intentions. See what I am reading at the moment? There are some places there depicting Michelangelo's intentions in carving, (whether real or invented by the author is beside the point), which changed perception of people seeing his marbles, when they learned...

    Who do you Marry & how do you know they are the one?

    You are right in almost everything, I think. The only thing I cannot be with you on is this "slow progressing". As different people have different ways, it is not right to expect everybody progressing in the same way. And another... I met some people who looked very immature to me, and their...

    Sorry, Novella, but this is a road to nowhere. If someone shitted on the roof of your car, it surely would be remembered by you, but I doubt if that could be considered an art, conceptual or other. All these cadavers with the guts uncovered are surely to be remembered, and I heard many praises...

    Hello from Russia!

    Wow! Here is the map of the world! (It's opened on Moscow, but it seems every place could be found on it!) http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=55.756474,37.616501&spn=0.108147,0.131836&t=k&hl=en

    Who do you Marry & how do you know they are the one?

    I lived with my wife for nearly 16 years now. Really we got married last year, but I've never considered legal procedures as needed in this case. I first met my Janna in a bus, which delivered us from Moscow to the construction site in the Zvyezdny Gorodok (Star City) - a place, where our...

    General Chat Divided - Yay or Nay

    Yep. I could sign under these myself. It is fun to be able to talk to all these people. To know more. Now I know much more about people in the other countries because of this forum. Due to my business I know mostly wealthy and highly successful persons all over the world. And, really, most...

    Yep, I think real art is in creating something that never existed before. It may look ugly to some because of it's novelty... But I cannot imagine a piece of soap to be an art object because it was made of some fat cat's fat... That's a new idea, yes... But somehow I cannot see art in it. And...
