Hello everybody ! It's my first day at italki and i'm still trying to figure out how it works. If you're good at English, feel free to message me. I really need to practice even though I've been learning English for years. Every time a foreigner approaches me in a street my tongue gets twisted and I panic, it's so embarrassing .
There was this one time when I was studying German, English and Russian at the same time at school so I was kind of dizzy already. So, there was a Christmas celebration in my country which is called Alilo. My friends and I were taking part in it and wore special surplices. It was a beautiful scene as we were standing near a huge church which is on a hill, so you could see the whole town from there. All in all, a few tourists came to me and asked (in English) to take pictures with me. This was the time when I completely forgot every single word in English and answered: Ja! kaneshna!. They didn't mind my stupid answer, they were happy while taking photos but I felt so awkward. If you don't know, Ja means yes in German and kaneshna means of course in Russian. After all, I decided to stop studying 3 languages and focused only on English. Now I really want to continue learning German because I have a chance to go there. I also want to speak Russian because Russia is my country's neighbour and everybody speaks Russian here.
So here is a little story about me, I love writing and I'll make sure to write more.
