Right you are! And our daughter looks like her dad. As for small Olga she seems to resemble me

Pavel - as your Olga's husband

Don't you lke the name? I think it is very nice

NatalyS, so nice to recognize the familiar features in our children, grandchildren. I like the name Pavel! I think that all Pavels are workaholic

Really so!

awfully sorry означает очень жаль

it trully does, but we don't say like that . the same as Russian speakers do not say "kind day". And it is a little better to discuss language related topics in proper forums . nothng personal, just trying to be more modest

You -who? Do you identify yourself as American? Nothing personal Do you mean to say that Russin people stop being Russian after they have moved to the USA or some other country? By the way, I agree that my English is the language of a foreigner. I'll never speak like a native speaker as far as I don't live in the English (in our case American) environment. While reading Agatha Christie's stories about Hercule Poirot, I came across a statement that amused me. The main character's English was so perfect that it revealed him a foreigner.

NatalyS, well said

At the very beginning we came to an agreement about speaking English as we can without pointing our mistakes, I like to communicate here because no one criticizes me for my imperfect English.

Thank you, dear. And Dinochka as well. I mean the author of the topic.

np, just it is not a good idea to bring up laguage diversity and show off your language skills in non-related topics as it is humiliating people. nothing personal

Too boring! And very personal.

NatalyS, if I find the photo of my friend Tatyana - I will show you it by all means

Hello

Here she is

Thank you! A very nice woman and a charming girl! Give my love to them!

NatalyS, I completely agree with you! Thanks a lot

If i will have any grammatically or another mistakes, please tell me

Well, you shouldn't use future tense in conditional clause. Besides, you should say 'any other' instead of "another" in this sentence.

guys, it really hurts people's feelings when you point out someone's mistakes without being asked for. For real!
For sure grammar is important, but it is not for schooling here. It's bulling.
In my humble opinion.

It shouldn't hurt as long as it has been asked for.

Haven't seen anyone here who corrected mistakes not being asked for. Is the problem really worth speaking about? By the way Dinochka hasn't come to the forum for a long time.

Hello, Фрогги! Happy to see you It's the first time you've joined our company, isn't it? Hope it won't be the last one! Welcome!

As a matter of fact, I have to admit that I hadn't read all messages before I corrected that sentence, so I didn't realize it was really considered improper to correct mistakes. I do apologize.

Yes, it is the first time. I am not easy to disappoint, so I guess I'll stay here for a while.

Hello, my pet! It's great you've joined us. Your English is quite good. But don't forget to write capital letters when it's necessary. See you soon.

Oh, I'm so inattentive Thanks

Mary, mind conditional sentences. This one is unreal condition referring to the present or future. It must look like this: I would be grateful if you corrected them. Good luck!
