@Johan: Wow I can’t believe I understood everything you wrote! I learned Russian at home from Internet sites, but I am still very beginner. Ya nye magu gavarit’ pa russkiy =(

But then, I don’t have time for language learning at the moment, but I really love Russian, so sometimes I find myself learning it when I’m procrastinating or when I’m listening to Russian techno music. =D I never really formally started learning Russian, it just seems to attract me involuntarily! It’s different alphabet also set it apart from other foreign languages like French or Spanish for me. Now I realize that I know so much already, which is unbelievable for me because I started with zero knowledge and never expected to get even this far.

Good luck to you both!^^
