Good moments in learning foreign languages are...

Hello community, today I found out about this resource and I was very happy. I have been learning English for many years. I would like learn skills of English language skills. The English language is different from the languages which  that I know .There are I know Russian language very well and Lithuanian language .Good moments in learning foreign languages are results and new environments. I'm guessing that you mean that getting results is a good moment, and being able to be in a new environment? But this isn't clear from the sentence structure....
See you.

Amazing concert of Lucas Debargue

Do you like listening classical music as much as I do? like it<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8"> ? Well, I would like to tell you about irresistable   an irresistible concert of Lucas Debargue. He is a young pianist, laureate of The International Tchaikovsky competition. Before the concert I listened to his performances and I was admired of his expertise.

It was not a very big stage in our local philharmonic hall filharmonia. Lucas performed some pieces of Scarlatti, then three pieces of Moris Ravel and finally a composition of Russian composer Mettner. Debargue has his own individual style in performing. I think he is good on performing impressionistic composers, like Ravel. The pianist played three encores.

The only downside was the public. The public was very unmannered (lacked manners). They often drank out of their bottles, and ate sweets. After the ending of the concert before the light was put turned on, people have  were already hurrying on a  to the gate/
I think Lucas Debargue is very perspective  prospective/has a lot of potential as a  pianist and must will have a large following in the near future.

Some ideas based on the Russian :) 

On a Planet Which Was Ruthlessly Tiny

Dear friends! Here's my trial to translate a poem by Robert Rozhdestvensky, a poet from the USSR. Even a negative assessment is welcome..

On the planet
which was ruthlessly tiny,
there lived a man and he was tiny.
And he had a job which was tiny
And a very tiny briefcase.
And his salary was tiny.

And once, on a beautiful morning, 

A seemingly small war knocked on his window.

And one a sunny beautiful morning
he had heard someone knocked on his window.
And it seemed it was a little war.

And his rifle was also tiny. 
And they gave him new boots, they were tiny,
And his helmet was very tiny,
His trenchcoat was of a tiny size.

He was given a tiny rifle, 

And new boots, which were also tiny,

And a helmet, it was also tiny, 

And a trenchcoat of the tiniest size. 


...And when he fell down—
unnatural and unsightly,
And his mouth was distorted with a battle cry,
It turned out,
The Earth had not enough marble
to cut him out in his real/true? great height.

The first ever entry on italki

Hello everyone! A friend of mine has recommended italki to me, in a case I have a questions related to the English language and have no one to answer them.This way I got here. I am learning English at school and I think that we don't have enough classes to learn the language so that everyone can speak it at the essential level. The only thing I have learnt from my school is the basic vocabulary. I know how to name things like:"a grey cat that has whiskers caught a mouse in his paws." I have to say that my school is not bad at teaching English. I think every student in our class who really followed the curriculum knows how to say that sentence. However, I want to learn more in order to be able to understand films and songs and talk to the native speakers. My friend recommended me to start with reading books, and I think this helped me enrich my vocabulary, but I find reading boring. I don't have enough patience to look up every word in the dictionary, especially if there is a bunch of them. I would rather watch a video or listen to a podcast. Aye, today I was learning some phrasal verbs. Could you check the sentences that I made:
1. The police put down the strike that started yesterday at the military factory.
2. After a long trip to a neighbouring town I dropped off in my armchair.
3. Eugene broke off a piece of chocolate and gave it to me to celebrate his break-off (break up is better here) with Maria.
4. The class fell through due to the holiday.
5. Parents who do not want their children to be vaccinated have to sign off a paper to state that they are refusing.
