English speaking room

of course, not only 3 months I'd learnt English with Russian teachers before. But actually 3 months with native speaker got me more than previous years of learning English at school and university. Therefore I want to be completely plunged in language environment and I am planning to visit the UK in summer.
My main problem was speaking, and I always said to my teacher "I can't!!!!!" One day he called me and said "Today our lesson is at the Pikassa bar". I thought that it was very strange, but came. He ordered 4 cocktail B-52 (three types of liqueur and fire) for me and said "You'll see that you can speak English perfectly!!!!". And actually he was true, after these cocktails I spoke English nonstop that evening

Yes, we have different accents too. When I visit Riussian cities, some people, who hear my speech, say : Аааааааааа, мааааааааааааасквичкаааааааааа".

My daughter has just emailed me some new pictures from Yekaterinsburg. This one presents Village Ice that was erected in the city. Both kids and grown-ups have a lot of fun there.

Well... we did have snow like two weeks ago .. but not now And last year we had LOTS of snow!!!

NatalyS What a beautiful pictures! (Again, my instincts are telling me to put "a" and my head is telling me to put "the" - where is the truth? Please, correct). Thanks for sharing.

I saw such a great picture: "Julie and Julia". This picture about 2 interesting women and their experience with the cooking. There is, also, a wonderful love story. I think you all gonna love it. The actresses are Meryl Streep and Amy Adams play so perfect, specially Meryl Streep, of course. I wish you all can see this movie. It is on DVD already.

Thank you, darling! I'll buy the DVD by all means.
As for the article, you shouldn't use the artical Awith plural forms as it always means one 'What beautiful pictures!' The same with 'cooking'. No artical. 'Actresses are....' No artical. I'd rather write it like this: M.S. and A.A star in the film. They are perfect!' Then the last sentence. If it's hypothetical and unreal wish it should be like this: 'I wish all of you couldsee the movie'. If you mean to use Complex object, it'll be like this: 'I wish you to see the movie'
All in all you speak good English. I enjoy mixing with you.

NatalyS, my dear, thank you for all corrections. I appreciate them a lot. They all are right to the point. I can't wait until you see the movie, so, we can discuss it.

It's my pleasure I'll be ready for the discussion by all means, but a bit later as my husband is celebrating his jubilee this Friday and I have a lot to do, like house-dinner in a restaurant, invitations, a special congratulation with pictures demonstrating different periods in his life and career, poems and other texts to the pictures, etc. We are not going to have many guests, just our closest friends because there will be a special celebration in his office too, and other people are responsible for it. See you soon.

NatalyS, good luck with all preparation for your hubby jubilee! and CONGRATULATIONS!

Really? It was raining today. And it was a little foggy....

Hi, everyone! At a forum I recently, very much good idea to speak here on English. Because I live in America recently and I don't have practices enough in English. It is very glad that there is such forum. Tell me, please, how long did you learn English, on arrival here?

honey-bunny If you have an adult school near by, it is good idea to start there as well. You would have practice for half of day in the classroom and it is free.

thanks for oftner,but I can't becouse I have 2 month old son

Катя, напишу по-русски, т.к. не знаю понятно ли будет, если по-английски. Я бы перевела это так: “Я не ищу самого лучшего, т.к. уже нашел его. Я ищу нового - для сравнения. В новом для меня – развитие” (движение вперед). Как мне кажется, автор высказывания очень торопился, потому что здесь есть ошибки (предлоги и т.д.). А откуда этот текст? Подойдет ли перевод? Напишите. Если еще вопросы - то лучше обращаться сюда
