To anyone who knows Russian

Not exactly. Born in the USSR (Uzbekistan).
Live in Israel right now.

Russian is my mother tongue. I'm still trying not to forget Russian after 10 years in Israel coz frogetting a language sux...
 
you can't forget it in Latvia lol
38% speak russian here:(

and I know that there are a lot of people from former USSR in Israel

how's life/situation there now?
from Latvia it seems to be calmed down
 
My Russian teacher is from Latvia....She is quite funny, she makes fun of how bad the public education is where I live. It's quite fun to learn Russian with her too, because I have already studied Latin, and Spanish so I already have a heads up on the basic principles of studying a foreign language... Well, until nextime..
Do svedanya.....
 
:)
greet your teacher from me and say her that she is really lucky to be a teacher outside of Latvia

(she'll understand:D)

Yeah. You're right. there are a lot of USSR immigrants in Israel. about two years ago 49% of Israel was USSR immigrants. That's a lot.

And my town is also about 70% USSR immigrants and the rest Yemen and Marrocco immigrants (Jewish).

About the situation, it's kind of calm right now, you know, only two get killed in a week :rolleyes:

But overall, it's pretty calm, plus I'm leaving in neutral ground, far away from any Iraqi cruise missile hit range, well, not exactly. Don't think Saddam will strike my town coz it's like in the middle of nowhere and it's a ~10 minute walk from one side to the other so it's pretty safe where I live.

P.S. Wasn't Latvia a part of the USSR?
 
Response to Avatar

I choose to learn Russian because nobody else around here knows any Russian....Living in a small town, there are pretty much too languages that are studied. Spanish and French! Thats awful.. Only two language. Also, at the place I work, there are VERY MANY Russian, and other people who are from Slovik countries.
 
I have no clue as to what it's about, my Russian doesn't quite stretch far enough :p but if you're interested in interacting, there's a forum here with a couple of English parts too.

I have a question about questions. Well, about asking questions. Its not the grammar, its the inflection/intonation/stress/accent that i can't get. Where, in the following phrase, would the stress fall on the word in order to change the statement from a statement to a question?

"Voy ponyeymayetya baRrrusskye" Where on the 2nd word would the stress fall?

Thanks for any help!

And in case nobody has any idea what i'm talking about, just ignore this :D
