You have other 22 hours to speak Russian!
This is not a real entry, actually.
Just wanted to say hello to everyone and to make an announcement: we're open! )

mgm...
7) We plan to have "english meetings" to meet and practice it in person. Optional, of course. We've tried it alread - it can be fun.

Чиффа.
Done))
I'm so-o-o excited about the meetings-points! That is what we need to be completely happy))
I think about weekly entries on grammar and etc. Like, idioms in use. *nudges* I'd like to post something about slang, too..

[f:]ReesKey, yes, I think about doing some posts on my new book ;) And may be topics for discussion.

Hi everyone!
We could do "short bios*" about our English proficiency so that everyone has an idea at what level people are. Because I, for one, have no idea about anyone except Чиффа.

*bio = short for biography

life is sweet // there's always time for tea and room for cake
Oh, what a splendid idea!))

What I can do to make everyone happy is to post some educational links I use and some info about Cambridge exams probably, if anyone is interested.

Btw, some misprints I've noticed in the top page post:
write that essay for you your exam
so you'lll know what to write about
:)

Sleng - it will be great. I have been always interested in this theme )
And an idea is good, good, very good! *Tamaki's screams* ))

KattyJamison
Shae Cool! I might actually have some practice exams links left since my last exams... will look them up and post them. And I can start with the bio as soon as I can post entries in the community. Provided my patients cooperate and be quiet for a while ))

KattyJamison, I think a short free-form bio will be more appropriate. Like "English and me". It's hard to judge one's proficiency level if you aren't (weren't) in any formal studies.

Shae, well, it may be interesting, just mind we have not only Moscow people here...
BTW, I'm sorry but I have this trouble with my keyboard - she does twin letters by itself and I don't always see it. I'll change it soon, it's such a bother...

Dyx slang, ok?

KattyJamison, that is a good idea) Would you make a separate entry for that, please?)

Shae, thank you for pointing out the misprints) I've corrected those)
There is a new entry where we collect links, so please share)) That would be great)

Dyx, sleang ) Yes, I think slang will be useful. I'll ask my native-speaking friends to help with that)
Ah, mon ami :D
24.07.2008 в 18:51

KattyJamison
Чиффа. That's kind of what I meant, actually )) I don't even know the official levels anymore...
[f:]ReesKey Yep; already done.
24.07.2008 в 18:56

KattyJamison
[f:]ReesKey, Чиффа. In the heading entry:
We speak English. And ARE Damn proud of it!
24.07.2008 в 19:10

"With silence comes peace. With peace comes freedom. With freedom comes silence" (c)
Чиффа.

It was a misprint, sorry.

[f:]ReesKey

It'll will definitely, i agree )
Man, I'm afraid to write here now! I hate mistakes! :duma:
"Kyoya (i don't know how to write his name... help me >_< ), mon ami..." Sorry, Mitsukuni-kun ))))

KattyJamison thanX

Dyx everyone does mistakes; that's what we need practice for. Don't be shy ;)
24.07.2008 в 19:19

KattyJamison
Dyx I second Чиффа. on that: everyone makes mistakes. People who speak the language for decades make them, the native speakers make them; it's absolutely normal. That's the only way one improves, really.
24.07.2008 в 19:27

"With silence comes peace. With peace comes freedom. With freedom comes silence" (c)
Чиффа., KattyJamison I know, I know, but i've never talk in English with other people, i have no practice at all (

Dyx, so better to start with written English. Though we can have a meeting soon, the weather is great for outdoor activities. And there is no time except now ))) So just start talking in comments if you're not confident enough to write a post yet.
24.07.2008 в 19:49

"With silence comes peace. With peace comes freedom. With freedom comes silence" (c)
Чиффа., yeah, i've already thought about it ) Thanks for advice )
So pity i can't meet with everyone, I live in other town and don't go to Moscow really often.

Dyx, Piter isn't so far away )) and a lot of us are going there a lot. Besides I think we have (and will have) some people from there.
