Hi. I live in Russia. I know English and now I'm learning German. I'd like to improve my skills in these languages or start learning another one. For communication I'd prefer English because my German is still very poor. In return I will help you with Russian, so feel free to communicate me.

    Was ist richtig? "Ich lasse die Frau das Gemüse schneiden" oder "Ich lasse der Frau das Gemüse schneiden"? Wenn die beiden richtig sind, was ist denn der Unterschied dazwischen? Danke im Voraus!

    Röslein auf der Heiden I came across this question on a Russian forum, but there was no answer there. It is a line from the poem "Heidenröslein" by Goethe. I became interested in it too: why we have here "auf der Heiden", not "auf den Heiden" or " auf der Heide".

    К сожалению, я могу поделиться только общими впечатлениями, поскольку и чешский и польский только "надкусывал". Польский мне показался ближе по грамматике и звучанию к русскому и украинскому. Что касается учебников, то мне кажется лучше использовать анлоязычные (если уровень языка позволяет), поскольку там тщательнее разъясняется материал, ведь для англоязычных польский и чешский очень сложные языки. В русских же учебниках, что мне попадались, как мне показалось, не хватает глубины и много мешающих отсылок к схожести языков. Посмотрите на сайте http://www.twirpx.com/, там должно быть много материалов по обоим языкам.

    Personal pronouns I'm making an exercise on replacing different parts of sentences by corresponding personal pronouns. I have some doubts about this example: Il m’a parlé de sa copine. Il a promis à sa copine de revenir bientôt. My variant is: Il m’a parlé d'elle. Il lui a promis de revenir bientôt. Is it correct? If not, please explain me why.

    Partitive article I was making some exercises on the Partitive article and came across a few examples I can't quite understand. 1. Elle rêve de changer du travail. Why not "Elle rêve de changer le travail", what's the difference? 2. "Pour commencer a écrire il me manque du papier" and "Ces gens manquent d'instruction pour bien travailler." In the first sentence we have "du papier", but "d'instruction" in the second one, although neither of them is negative.

    Two phrasal verbs "get away with" and "get off with" I believe, "get away with" means that someone comitted a crime but wasn't punished for it at all. "Get off with", on the contrary, means that someone was punished, but the punishment should have been heavier. Am I right?

    What does "hairline threads" mean here? "The screw through Cinder's ankle had rusted, the engraved cross marks worn to a mangled circle. Her knuckles ached from forcing the screwdriver into the joint as she struggled to loosen the screw one gritting twist after another. By the time it was extracted far enough for her to wrench free with her prosthetic steel hand, the hairline threads had been stripped clean." I believe in the context of this passage the "hairline threads" have something to do with mechanics, but I can't understand what exactly the sentence means.

    Three questions about a sentence I came across the sentence: Am zweiten Tag der wolkenbruchartigen Niederschläge hatte das Wasser fingerbreite Risse im Asphalt erzeugt, und am dritten Tag waren gegen Mittag große Bruchstücke Asphalt den Hügel hinabgetrieben, bis über die Kreuzung hinweg. So I have three questions: 1. "Bruchstücke Asphalt den Hügel". What cases are used here? 2. The verb "hinabtreiben" is transitive or intrasitive? 3. "waren hinabgetrieben" is an example of passive voice or Plusquamperfekt?

    What is the meaning? Perhaps he should have considered warning his cohort away from his investments. What does "away from his investments" mean here? There is no more context, it was just an illustrating sentence for the word "cohort".
