Here's the context:

Mom: а кто там ещё был из деток с вами ?
Kid: раз пять шесть четыре и всё
Kid: нас было пять и ещё . (could also have said всё, it's not clear)Mom: а детки были из вашей группы

I keep wondering why so many people don't read comments before posting their own.

Er... because they don't care? (Your rusty community moderator)

[zwilling]

Yeah, that's the problem. Or not a problem, if you don't care. (Does you mentioning being a moderator mean I'm pushing some limits?)

[wolk_off]

Not at all, it's just me being knee-deep in happy tears. A real post in the community I considered dead for years!

I've always enjoyed this community! It's LiveJournal I sort of walked away from. It's because I really exposed my childishness in my early 20s with my journal and sort of cringe at what I chose to share. But for talking about Russian with people who like talking about Russian, I can't think of a better place to go than this community.

Didja hear that? Learn_Russian brought me back! :D

I know what you mean! But in this case, I really enjoy people giving redundant or very similar responses. That way I get multiple people confirming (or dismissing, as it happens) something for me, which makes me more confident in my understanding of a word, phrase or usage. I think it's great when you're learning. :)

At least make some statistics out of that stuff, right :)
