Author Post TimH Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 5/8/2004 8:37:23 AM   I am sure honey,m that your grasp of the grammer is far greater than mine wil ever be :o) You grew up speaking Ukrainian and writing it too, so if you see errors you would know they are wrong, I on the other hand wouldnt know if a sentence was gramatically correct or not and what words were wrong, so the electronic gizmo is of no use to me, or to most of us here for that matter !! dma Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 5/8/2004 8:39:21 AM   I'll be comfortable enough with a 'normal' dictionary in my pocket (no bulge gags) and prepared 'crib sheet' if my mind goes blank. Most situations are likely quite common and expected so preparing for them can't be that difficult. Ptichka Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 5/8/2004 8:40:02 AM   :))) But you don't have to worry about grammar that much, as we all here speak not the correct Russian, but some kind of slang, and when one speaks he does't pay much attention to grammar. Of course when writing it's a need to follow at least some grammar, but I'm sure any good girl woulnd't mind mistakes in grammar, as it's not the most important thing:))) TimH Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 5/8/2004 8:46:53 AM   "Most situations are likely quite common" The most common one for me is when my mind goes blank !! ;o)) TimH Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 5/8/2004 8:48:26 AM   Having used mail.ru translator on my web mail with them, often when translating from Russian to English it will give as many as 8 variables for the word which has been used in Russian !!! Thats 7 too many for me to decide which on it should be !!! tradman Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 5/9/2004 2:01:38 PM   I wonder if our translations come out, as funny as theirs, I love translated letter, they come through in 1950's English and are a joy to read gladiatorUK Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 5/9/2004 2:11:12 PM   trad: I think most electronic translators were designed by dyslexic idiots who bunked school at every opportunity!!

U$S 200 + local tax. I've been practicing with it in several languages and I'm having fun. I figured that I can use it in Russian to find a wife and the others to help me translate the menus when I take her out to eat at the southern California restaurants...:)))) TimH and Olga are right about these things, you cannot beat the strength of the methodology of languages lessons, whichever form you choose....but in a pinch, the electronic translator should help a bit. scottlf Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 5/10/2004 12:14:15 PM   Pronunciation has been the one feature I have seen lacking on these units. The ones I have seen only do english. I am more curious if there are those that do Russian pronunciation, how accurate are they. Again, the point is not a substitute, but a guide for situations you are unfamiliar with until you have a better grasp. The best of both worlds is to have a Russian speaking friend you can practice with until you can carry on a somewhat normal conversation. I don't have that luxuray at this point. Until then, read, listen, and practice are the rules for me.
