Nataly,

"They might not know about the man's role in the the history of Russia or on the contrary do know too well to express their attitude this way. It's up to them"

Sure it is there country after all. Wink
However, sometimes I just want that people would be more respectful to each other and specially to their culture, religious, and history. Best wishes... .

"My Lord, they sounded like alians from a different world"
I feel the same way when I hear African American speaking or Texas dialect or south dialect. Their speech is so different.
Did you hear about pigeon English - mix language where you use partly English partly your own language?

Mary,

Thank you so much for your response - very interesting.

"When smbd asks me if I speak "perfectly" Italian, I answer no, I speak it very well but it is difficult to understand what people mean by "perfection", isn`t it? For smbd it is just speaking very quickly.."

may I ask, for how long do you speak Italian?

For example, I study and speak English for 10 years and still I don't think that I have perfect English. Recently, I start to be a little bit easy on myself when I learned how many mistakes Native speakers make in their own language.
Wink The bottom line, if you speak and understand language in real life situations then you know language very well. If you know the grammar and spelling, and can write a novel Smile then you know language perfect.
