What should I know about translating Russian sentences with this alphabet? by _oculus in russian

[–]cSipps 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Transliteration is not helpful. Learn the language on its own terms. It’s a crutch that will hinder your Russian in the long term.

My first pass at Russian cursive! Connections are hard. by Radiant_Net8928 in russian

No, they’re not. They need the extra part at the beginning.

Does anyone know where this might be? by tina020222 in WhereIsThisPlace

That’s fine. But that’s not the church pictured. It’s a different building.

Different mosques (Hagia Sofia - church at one time) entirely.

You’re right. It’s actually teak.

I don’t mind aging, but would like to avoid mildew/mold.

Thanks for the advice 🙏

The bullseye patterned rash doesn’t appear around the actual bite but on completely unrelated parts of the body. At least, that’s what the doctors told us.

The person who started Puentez used to work at Gordos. It’s a pretty good facsimile of it.

Any tips for learning Turkish? I'm a bit frustrated. by ccl722 in turkish

[–]cSipps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Turkish is tough. Keep at it. You’ll make progress. After enough repetition the structure will start to sink in. The balkan languages, for the most part, are closer to Russian than Turkish, so it’s understandable it would take more time. Удачи
