    Я не согласен с Paul G. "Пошёл, поехал" - это завершённое время (точнее, совершённый вид). Незавершённый вид будет "шёл, ехал". Можно сказать: "Когда мы гуляли, пошёл дождь". Это говорит только о том, что дождь начался. О том, закончился ли дождь, мы не знаем.

    Ходил. "Пошёл" - звучит не очень, но, я думаю, так можно сказать.

    Do you use ")))" in Internet space? In Russian Internet space people often do something like this))))) They use a few brackets (often after a sentence) to express their emotion. It is kind of smiley. Kind of this :-) The more the merrier. People from English-speaking Internet-space I told with didn't understand me when I used these brackets. Don't you do that?

    The structure of Russian sentenses is more difficult and strict, then English. It is impossible to explain it in one answer. One thing is obvious: the word order in Russian isn't so importand like in English. But every word has to be concerted with others.

    Common ways to say: "I see", "I understand". Which is more common, which is less, which is wrong? 1) I've got it 2) I have got it 3) I get it 4) I got it Maybe you can say others more common? Thanks!Meaning: like somebody gave some information, and another one answered this phrase.

    Negation of negation in English In Russian and In Ukrainian, we can use negation of negation. For example, sometimes we can say something like this (trying to translate word for word): 1) I can't don't love her. 2) If you drink this, you will not be able be not sleeping. I've read there is something like this in English: 1) I can't but I love her. I can't help but loving her. (For a Russian native speaker the word "help" sounds very strange here). 2) If you drink this you won't but fall asleep. Is that correct? Are these ways universal or for informal speech only? Is there another way to do a negation of negation in English? Thanks for any advise.

    "Will do" vs "be going to do" I use to think that "be going to do" express an idea that somebody just intends to do something. But I have heard some phrase in a movie. It was something like a girl smashed up a car of her boyfriend and she said her friend: - He's gonna kill me. But her boyfriend did even know at that time. So I understand "be going to do" is full identical with "will do" and it doesn't matter does subject intend to do it or doesn't? Is there any difference in British and American English? Is the turn of speech "be going to do" called Future Simple too in English grammar?

    Is there any difference between these types of sentences? A) I like this place. / I do like this place. B) I don't like this place. / I do not like this place. How big is a difference in case A and B in conversational speech? Do second sentences sound most sure thanks to additional "do" in case A and to a lack of short form "don't" in case B?

    How common is this error? There is a joke in movie "12 angry man": First men says: - He's a common, ignorant slob. Second says: - He don't even speak good English. Third men sets right: - He doesn't even speak good English. How common is this error in USA? Maybe the joke is absurd?
