I was just wondering, can you write Russian without the Cyrllic alphabet, like in the English alphabet but Russians would understand it?

the little part that lies between poland and lithuania, where kaliningrad is the capital off.
Do they speak primarily russian or lithuanian or polish?

I've been studing Russian by myself and I've been having some trouble differenciating some words:

1) здесь and тут. Are there special cases in which I should use each one or or can both be used equally to mean "here"?

2) теперь and сейчас: Is there any difference between those two when I mean to say "now"?

I'm not sure. and I don't really trust sites because you know. Yeah. Don't try it.

Pesavage is my last name.
"Ким Песаваге" ---> Kim Pesavage?

For pronunciation, it's a short "Puh" and the word Savage.

How do you say the following to a female:

You are sexy.
I like your lips.
You have nice t1ts (breasts).
I wish i could talk to you in private.
You have a beautiful smile.

for some reason my ipod is now all in Russian and I need it back to English but sadly i do not know how to speak Russian or read it. If someone could please help me that would be a big help thank you and answer fast because I'm freaking out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And why?

There are notebooks that have diagonal lines in them to help you write cursive correctly in Russian but they don't have them in the USA where could I get the ones they have in Russia?
I mean it is like a real notebook with the blue horizontal lines and red margins, but it also has blue diagonal lines. Russians should know what I am talking about

V tvoih glazah pechat greha
O kak ona nas razdelyaet
I skorbi tyi nye razdelyaesh
Lyubov kak staraya truha

YA po osennim myagkim tropkam
Idu ne dumaya kuda
I rastekaetsya vada
Vesennim pavodkom nelovkim

Kogda menya ti pazaviosh
Bayus tebya ya nye uslyishu
Tak gromka dozhd
stuchit pa kryishe
Vse tot zhe zapevala-dozhd
Zapevala-dozhd
zapevala-dozhd
Tvoi dozhd

V tvoih glazah opyat uprek
Kak tyi menya ne ponimaesh
I skorbi tyi ne razdelyaesh
YA kak i prezhde odinok

I pa proshestvii sezona
Nye sohranyu svoey mechtyi
Takoy pustoy i monotonnoy
CHtob nakonets ochnulas tyi

Is there a way to learn Russian, even when in Canada? Because from what I can tell there isnt really any places where you can have a professional teach you Russian. Is there any books or programs in which i can learn Russian?

Can someone please tell me what he means by this? I have tried to use a translator but it makes no since.

мы же договорились что переходим на ТЫ Нет . Просто я говорю что говорить друг другу ВЫ это слишком официально . Можно говорить ТЫ .

The handwritten alphabet is different to the print one, and I understand that. It's just, I don't write in cursive english. I always write in print as do most people I know. I'm learning Russian (by myself) and I don't want to learn all the cursive and always write in it if they don't, I'd seem silly. Is print too informal/incorrect? Is cursive outdated, and not commonly used?

I would like to learn Russian and am looking for the best way to go about doing so. Thanks in advance for your input.

I'm 17 years old, and am interested in meeting a girl. I've been having pretty shitty relationships with dudes lately, and would like a change and take a turn back to females.

A bit about me: Russian, blue eyed, brunette, 17, 5'5".

1) Tess looks like a little doll. What nice eyes on this girl.

2) I don't know about the NHL. I was only observing your answers to certain questions.

Thank you

In 10th grade lol in america what would be some of the things different they would do? And what are some dos and don'ts? Learn to speak Russian? Slip a note into her locker in Russian? Lol many things mostly what are the dos and don'ts? And if she like you how could you tell lol tyvm
As in any cultural type differences

I need a Russian speaker (preferably native) to translate the following lines into Russian. You may write them out in Russian Crylliac or Latin phonetic equivalent (I do know the Russian alphabet).

The apple is red.
It is John's apple.
I give John the apple.
We give him the apple.
He gives it to John.
She gives it to him.
I must give it to him.
I want to give it to her.

Thanks for your time and it is very much appreciated if you help me out.

with the alphabet if possible?

I have been using Rosetta Stone, which is working ok-ish I guess, but I'm not learning all I would like too. Unfortunately I can't afford an instructor, so does anyone have any suggestions on how to continue learning the language until I can afford an instructor?
Thanks in Advance

So I was wondering, is there a direct translation for: "Everything will turn out to be in my favour" or "everything will work out in my favour"--or is there an idiom close to it?

I want to either learn Russian or Arabic. Which is easier for me to learn? And which one is more useful in the world.

I currently speak French, Spanish, Portuguese, and English

HOW DO YOU SAY:

1) HELLO, HOW ARE YOU? IS IT "PREE-VEE-YETT?"

AND (2) WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OR MEANING OF "HA-DA-SHO"

BEGINNING TO START LEARNING RUSSIAN SOON, OBVIOUSLY NUMBER ONE IS THE MOST COMMON IN ANY LANGUAGE AND I'VE HEARD #2 PLENTY OF TIMES AMONGST MY FRIEND'S PARENTS AND RELATIVES. FOR ANYONE THAT IS RUSSIAN, PLEASE FORGIVE ME FOR WRITING RUSSIAN WORDS/PHRASES INCORRECTLY. I'M UNSURE OF HOW IT IS SPELLED OR SAID, HENCE THAT IS WHY I AM ASKING. THANKS

I am currently using Rosetta Stone to learn Russian, which is fine but before I try and tackle the whole language I want to learn to read and write it. What would be the best way to learn how to read and write in Russian?
I know that this is a hard language which is one of many reasons I chose it. Planning on going into the Corps, I enjoy difficult challenges and hope to tackle this one. Thanks for the advise so far. However If I were to go from the Wiki article (I considered this earlier) I know that just sounding out a word with their alphabet does not constitute it being the actual word, so where would I go from there?

I have a sight russian accent while talking english. What would you consider it? Sexy, nice, ok, bad, repulsive?

can someone please tell me what this poster says?? i think its in russian.
thx

I am 17. English is my first language, Spanish my second. I am very good with language in general, and am dying to tackle Russian. Opinions/pointers/warnings?

I gotta write a letter from the viewpoint of a russian immigrant in the late 1800's. where did most of them settle?

I'm particularly looking for community type papers with lots of advertising such as job ads, stores, etc. For example: ''Karuselʹ', ''Russkiĭ Ekspress'', ''Gazeta Plyus'' I used to get them at Vatra Deli but it closed down. I'd appreciate any help.

how do u pronounce a soft sign following a consonant? i mean, if no 'soft vowel' preceeds it? For example in the word 'дочь'... ??
i tried and tried, but the sound just won't come out... must be something wrong with me... =S

Hello! I'm a native Russian speaker, and I'd like to practice English and help you to learn Russian .
