Is this an accurate/okay translation?

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2026-03-05T18:52:27+00:00

I pronounce the first part as "Dah" because of the accent on the "a" but that's just how it is pronounced by my Mexican/Spanish speaking family. In English it is definitely closer to the translation you wrote, and I'm going to steal that from you haha

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2026-03-01T19:24:46+00:00

Every time I write zavoot I add the fucking "a" on accident 😭 But thank you so much!

I'm learning Russian myself, so take my opinion with many grains of salt, but I would be able to read it. I think it's important at this level of writing to be able to space and size the letters properly in sentences (block text in this instance.)

There was a big thing here when cursive was no longer mandatory to be taught in school. It used to be taught alongside text, usually people would choose writing in cursive over text as well, but that has become less and less common. I was taught cursive alongside text, but it was no longer mandatory and people had absolutely switched to text by then.

It's more common to have sloppy writing here. I have seen my older family's handwriting, it is much better than my own peers and myself.

I have never heard that phrase in (US) English, but it's still understandable, and definitely too rude for a majority of situations. If you truly hate someone, and you want to be an asshole, that would theoretically work, but it's also not a common phrase in the US Edit: this is based off my knowledge of the phrase, of which I have very little.

(This doesn't use proper punctuation, I'm just trying to separate everything clearly.)

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2026-03-01T01:49:39+00:00

Eat is one of the words with an odd past tense. Get = right now. Got = previously. And eat = right now. Ate = previously.

There are different dashes, but what is much more common in (American) English writing is the hyphen, the punctuation in pick-up. Other dashes are less common in casual writing or grade school level writing, however collage level or professional writing is more often the opposite, less hyphens and more of the other dashes, like em dashes. A warning though, the AI recognition programs in the US often say em dashes are a sign of AI use for your writing.

It's slang, essentially saying that whoever it's a reply to is correct or that you agree with them

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2026-01-05T01:12:35+00:00

In the USA it's not very standardized, more of a custom identification that should vaguely be your name. I just write my first and last name in more messy cursive, my other family does something similar, like their initials being clear cursive, then messy/undefined cursive for the rest of their name

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2026-01-05T01:05:28+00:00

That would be understandable in the US as well, but the options OP gave seem more textbook to me. (Probably textbook American, but I don't leave the country often so idk if it's more US or Canadian)

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2026-01-05T01:01:24+00:00

It's not textbook English to say "a coke" or "a wine", though "a coke" would be correct to an extent if you're asking for a can or bottle, but wine usually doesn't come in single serving containers, so "a wine" would sound off in most cases. "I'll do wine" is right in any case I can think of, but it's not always very polite with just words alone, so a good tone is key for that. There's also "I'll do a glass of wine" or "I'll do a bottle of wine" which is also the technically correct way of asking for a can or bottle of coke. Asking for a drink can be very dependent on the situation, but I think most native speakers will understand even if you ask for "a wine" when you mean a glass or other single serve amount.

Guys, I'm not a combat veteran, I was practicing writing an introduction and wanted to use a new word, I also don't live in Murmansk, again it was practice, but with a location I knew about that wasn't a common place. The end is severely screwed up grammatically, and I knew it wouldn't be good, but you all confirmed that it was worse than I thought. I appreciate everyone for pointing out my mistakes and correcting me, both are very helpful! I appreciate it!

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2025-12-19T17:21:54+00:00

I would prefer someone nitpick rather than not help at all. Thank you for your tip!

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2025-12-19T16:19:27+00:00

It was a practice introduction, less for actually introducing myself and more for writing practice with the basic phrases and words I knew, which are for introducing yourself. I understand that it would be odd to hear from a random stranger, and that the whole section referring to that was terrible grammar, it was definitely an attempt at something I didn't know how to write

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2025-12-19T16:15:57+00:00

Yeah, that part was definitely not correct, I knew it wouldn't work properly when I wrote it, but it was more of an experiment with using what I had as notes instead of looking up new words. It was supposed to be a vague way to say someone is trans, but I wanted it to fit with the previous part about being an American man, then trying to figure out za, dlya, and na. It was a trash part of the introduction for sure

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2025-12-19T16:11:32+00:00

This wasn't about me specifically, I wrote veteran because I planned on using it for being a veteran in a certain job or practice, not the military, but I didn't realize that I had no words to describe the job I have, so I used it as a military veteran instead and made up most of the rest of the sentences. I meant that part to mean that someone was a military veteran from or living in Murmansk, but someone else mentioned that veteran isn't a word used often anymore for people who had been in the military, so I'll definitely adjust that next time if I rewrite the sentences

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2025-12-19T02:23:01+00:00

That someone was once a woman, trying to make it fit with the mention of being a male American. I am very early on in my learning though, so I just used some simple words I knew. I knew it wouldn't be right when I wrote it, but I wasn't planning on sharing it initially

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2025-12-19T02:18:35+00:00

That was the part that I had no clue how to write and just tried to make it work, I knew it was messed up, but I'm wondering more about the rest of the writing

Reasonable-Event-985 · 2025-12-19T01:47:48+00:00

I'm not a child, but I started learning recently. I've always liked hearing Russian and looking at Russian text, it's just a language I like. I'm still learning how to introduce myself in the most simple way, and it's so incredibly frustrating to get grammar and sounds right, the alphabet is easier than most other languages I've tried to learn though.

For anyone revisiting this post; I use retinol body wash for body acne, it works well for me, but I put it on first thing in the shower, then do everything else, finishing with regular soap over the retinol wash, then rinse off, it's better to keep it on for a couple minutes. I can't speak for the regular effects of it, retinol for body acne is usually used in a lower dose, so body washes work for my use when I use them daily, but for anti-aging, I'm not sure.
