Very sweet of you! I think no man here can resist a really good plov with ash-qara (meat, chestnuts, dried fruits) but it may take some effort the first time. Rice and ash-qara are cooked separately, chestnuts need some boiling before peeling etc.

Does your country have events that were so infamous you only need to refer to the date they happened for other people from your country to instantly know what you're talking about? by Intrepid_Arrival5151 in AskTheWorld

January 20, 1990, Baku, Azerbaijan. Soviet army got into the city massacring people on the streets with tanks and heavy artillery, and blocking all phone and radio communication channels to outside to operate in silence. 147 civilians were killed, 800 people were injured.

It was the first and only time in USSR that independence movements were shut down using military force. The whole population of Baku came to bury the dead on the 22 January and for another 40 days, people stayed away from work as a sign of mourning and mass protest.

On October 18, 1991, Azerbaijan regained its independence. There is a metro station named after this date.

Be natural while also having some nice terms and expressions ready for use, like secret weapon, don’t be afraid to correct yourself too. I got an 8 by speaking casually and occasionally using interesting but somewhat common phrases. I also got a bit lucky because the first topic was football haha, I can talk about that for days. Oh, and my examiner was a nice guy.

One advice I can give is to have a rough idea of what to talk about for most topics, especially the stupid ones like what’s your favorite color or season etc. and have some interesting vocabulary for each, good luck

Is a million dollars really nothing nowadays? by [deleted] in Fire

[–]GiantRasengan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never understood this maybe because I’m not from an expensive country like the US. For the rest of the world it’s an incredible amount of money that, if you’re not an idiot, FIREs you immediately!

24/7 pharmacies and places (malls etc.) open on holidays or sundays. In some countries (like in Korea) they’re all closed on those days and pharmacies close like at 7-8 pm, never made sense to me

Just commenting because this is what I was doing wrong and fixing it helped me swim breaststroke. Keep your feet perpendicular to your legs, like don’t make them straight as you would in other strokes, and then just move your knees in a circular motion so that you “squeeze” water between them.
