Hello I live near Chicago in the USA. I work in a local library assisting patrons with computer questions. I also do training and education for staff and patrons alike. I currently only know American English. I am learning other languages so I can travel on vacations around the world and interact with the people who live there. Currently I am working on learning Russian. After I am semi fluent with it I will try my hand at Mandarin. Between these three languages I should be able to travel to most places and be able to communicate with the people of the visited countries. In doing my research on the best ways to learn a 2nd language different programs and lessons are all suggested for this or that reason. But what almost all the language sites recommend no matter what is to talk to people who are native speakers of the language you are studying. So I am looking to use Italki to meet people from around the world to chit chat with in English (if they are a foreigner looking to speak English), Russian, and someday Chinese.

    I don't know about PC but Mac has a Russian phonetic keyboard. So on a regular key layout our F key in English is there А key. If you use phonetic key layout our F key is ф. So you can touch type the same sounds as in English then just learn a few of the extra characters places. If this is better or not I don't know. If your only going to be using your own computer it is probably faster. But if your going to be using other peoples computers then it may be better to just learn the native key layout.

    I think the first one if correct. The third one could be correct if you added the word been. "Some errors have been fixed."

    On a PC or Mac you can add a different languages keyboard from the language control panel. On Windows 8 you hold the windows key and hit spacebar to swap between them. You can also pull up the onscreen keyboard if you want. On a Mac you can just have a language icon on the top right of your screen near the clock and switch between them using the menu. Just make sure you when you trying to login to your computer your using the keyboard your password is in. I've tried logging in forgetting I had my keyboard still in Russian. "WHAT I TYPED IT RIGHT!!!!!!" Oops РУС still in the lower right of the lock screen.

    That is a perfect transcript. However I don't know anything about cutting hair so I really didn't understand at all what he was talking about. I am guessing you would have to know a lot about cutting hair to know what the meaning of all that is. But the words are exactly like you typed.

    That is an odd sentence. Seems like something that is from a medical journal or some legal disclaimer or something. Just a guess here without much context, but my guess would be replace "agency in controlling" with "ability to control." That's just a guess hopefully someone else with jump in,

    Of the two listed I would say number 1. However if you wanted you could also say, "I ordered a set of books online and it will be delivered soon." When you buy something online it is usually referred to as an "order." A common option on a website is view order history or to see my orders. In the above you would be referring to all the books as the single order. Number 1 is correct but my example would be commonly used as well.
