I teach French, German, a little Spanish and Russian. At the moment I am most interested in improving my Russian and French, and I would be glad to assist others in improving / learning English. I have been once to Russia (three week course at Moscow Uni), and worked for a few months in hotels in France (Clermont-Ferrand and Perros Guirec near St Malo) My interests include hill-walking, photography and writing

    Спасибо всем за отличные ответы. Очень благодарен. Я нашёл это выражение на сайте BBC (русская служба). В статье молодой человек говорит о курении и вейпинге - «Пытаются ограничивать вейпинг, не зная о нем вообще ничего. Полная шляпа! Законы принимают взрослые дядьки и тетки, которые вейперов пару раз видели на улице: "Зло! Это все пиндосы!" “ Думаю, по-английски мы говорим «rubbish» или «crap» Да ещё в добавок не понимаю «пиндосы». Оскорбительное слово вероятно. Best wishes Dave

    Привет Михаил, я не согласен. Глагол tear apart, torn apart в осноном выражает действие, произшествие, а вечером вы хотите описать состояние кабеля. В таком случае мы чаще всего выбираем другое выражение как например the cable has still not been repaired. Но осторожно — я говорю по-английски как говорят в Ведикобритании, в США словоупотребдуние часто различается Dave

    One form of 'international friendship' can be a relationship between two towns. We call this 'twinning', For example my town in 'twinned' with a town in France. Города побратимы I think Dave

    'je' is just the subject of the verb - je chante, je parle, j'adore 'moi' is used after a preposition - avec moi, pour moi, devant moi, chez moi after 'c'est' - c'est moi for emphasis and comparison - moi, je reste ici (meaning you can go where you want, but I'm staying here) on its own - Qui? Moi?

    It depends on the meaning of the word 'development' which should be clear from the text which presumably precedes this sentence. 'A further development' can mean not some additional construction, but a new issue, a new event or complication. So you could say 'A new development is the extension of . . . . (big question is - of just the hotel or both buildings?)

    'frustrated' is probably good in the circumstances, but it does not include 'funny'. Maybe a combination of two words would be better - 'funny but frustrating'
