In the virtual world it's easy to transform into an entirely different creature. With the click of a few keys and photo processing people instantly become more beautiful, braver and smarter. I think this is most apparent if you've ever played the online dating game. You exchange messages with someone, a few photos, and then when the time comes you

>Can you understand my Russian in the video?
Of course )

>Maybe I'll try a new experiment and record a short video greeting for you each month in Russian
Yes, it'll be interesting. It's always interesting to hear foreigners speak Russian )

[peacetraveler22]

Okay, I will try to practice and make Russian videos every once in a while. But they will be very short.

Here's an American, I listen to everytime he uploads a new video )

'iz americA' must be 'iz americE' (Russian И not A in the end)

Everything else is very good

[peacetraveler22]

Hmm, I pronounced it the English way.

[mat_uc]

Very soft.

U need more "R" and words must be harder.

Not Priv'et. Just PriVet :)

[qi_tronic]

Foreigners hardly understand how to pronounce soft consonants.
Almost always it sounds like "привьет".
Or "привЭт" :))

But Chinese language is much harder in this part... :)

[inamora]

you're boring ))

[peacetraveler22]

Harder? Yes, Russian is a very aggressive language when compared to English. I used to think my Russian friends were fighting with each other when they spoke Russian. :) I can't roll "R's." We practiced this in my Russian class, but it's impossible. Same rolling of the "r" is necessary in Spanish language.

[peacetraveler22]

Thanks, I need a lot of practice!

С удовольствием и совершенно безвозмездно, то есть даром сделаю твой русский лучше. Ничего, что обращаюсь на "ты"? Речь, письменный текст - whatever.

Касательно России в целом - не верь новостям. Максимум, что ждет иностранца - это вымогательство со стороны полиции и нудная песня о просроченной "регистрации". Ах, да - еще полное непонимание английского.
