Hi Stanislav,

 

if I understood correctly, your question here is when do we use begin and when start.

 

Well, I would urge you, since you do have internet access, to use online dictionaries and Thesaurus (for synonyms, antonyms, etc).

 

Have a look here for an initial explanation on begin vs start:

Other online sources you can use are the following:

Good luck with your english language learning!
