Hello, I'm Yana and I was born in Ukraine. I moved to the U.S. at the age of 4. Even though I consider English to be my main language, as I have been living in the U.S. a majority of my life, Ukrainian is still my first and native language. A majority of my relatives live in Ukraine and I speak to all of them in my native language. Also, when I was younger, I went to Saturday School for Ukrainian and learned how to read and write in my native language. Besides this, I can write and speak in Russian, but my level of speaking is not as good as my Ukrainian. I know Russian because of being exposed to Russian shows, movies, and music from a young age. I'm currently interested in learning Turkish, as I watch a lot of Turkish TV shows, and have developed a strong fascination for the language and culture :) Hoping to study French next if I can successfully learn Turkish. Taking everything one day at a time. If anyone has any questions or needs any help in English, I'd be more than happy to help!

    For the first sentence, "you can't make him go," this is similar to saying "you can't force him to go" The word "make" here means to force (or compel) someone to do something. In the second sentence, "he makes me laugh" the word "makes" means causing something to happen.

    So Funny Gary, because I am a native speaker. Have been living in the U.S. my entire life, since the age of 4. You can't explore food itself. You can explore places. The person who said "sampling different kinds of delicious food" and my answer about "exploring restaurants that have delicious food" are both correct. Don't judge people based off of their names if you do not know their story. English is my most used language. If you ever came up to me and said you were "exploring delicious food" ..first thing I would do is call you an idiot and then I would ask you "where?"

    When you say, "I expected him to come over my house" it means you had a very strong belief that the person would come over. When you say "I thought that he would come over my house" it is just an idea, you did not assume he would come and did not have this strong belief.

    1. "Whose loud and shrill cry is this?" would be correct. "so loud" would not work in this sentence. The word "loud" already means making a lot of noise, so you do not need it. If you really want to use something, you can say "Whose very loud and shrill cry is this?" 2. For the second one, that sentence is perfect. It would be meddle. If you wanted to use "meddling" you would say, "stop meddling into other people's lives" 3. "What I like to do most is to eat" would be grammatically correct. Then "Two things I like to do most is to read and to hike" or you can also say "Two things I like to do most is to read and to go hiking"

    You cannot explore food, you can explore different restaurants that HAVE delicious food. So, you would say something like, "I am interested in exploring different restaurants that have delicious food"

    A and B are both incorrect. "My resume is attached" or "Please find my resume attached." "Find attached" does not make any sense, as there should be a noun separating the two verbs. "Please see the attached document" does not work either. Only "the document is attached for you" or you can say "for further details, the document is attached for you" or even "please read the attached document"

    Lessons from one or more teachers? In learning a new language on here, do you guys find it easier to take classes from one teacher or do you have multiple teachers who you take classes from? I am having trouble figuring out if I should stick to one, or if I should try classes from different teachers.

    I believe anything is possible with the right amount of time and effort. However, learning multiple languages requires an extensive amount of patience, time, and energy. Besides this, it is really easy to confuse words, phrases, and grammar from different languages when you are trying to learn them at the same time. I would recommend learning one language at a time to avoid the confusion and to make sure you can actually become fluent in one! After you become fluent in one language, it'll make learning another language you want easier :)

    Yes, there are multiple ways to say a lot of Russian phrases and the adjectives can be interchangeable and it'll still be considered correct! If you are a native speaker, sometimes, something just sounds better to you. Like to me, "хороший маленький чайник" just sounds better, but "маленький хороший чайник" can also work.
