>>/22708/ > by the way, the things she say in video, how viable are they? She thinks that learning phrases is better than learning words, I guess she is right. I couldn't remember how I started to learn English (the only foreign language that I somewhat know), but maybe like this. Learning just words doesn't help. I don't know if learning only phrases helps though, maybe it is also related to your native language. Russian declension/case system isn't easy, so native speakers of English, for example, may struggle with this because it is mostly unknown concept to them. >>/22710/ > by the way do russians have acronym(?) for foreign names? like yekaterina being katya or tatyana being tanya. if exist, what would mehmet's acronym? There are no common diminutive names for foreign names that aren't common here. I guess in informal speech Russian will ask you if your name have short form when your name is long or hard to pronounce. Mehmet doesn't sound hard, and it isn't common here at all (only in history books), so I don't know. We have plenty of Mohammed-related names though in Caucasian nations, more common, like Magomet/Magomed, Ahmed, Ahmad etc. Magomet is shortened to Maga, but this has very Dagestan/Chechen flavour.
