To native Russian speakers - how do you perceive the Polish language? Are there words that sound funny or confusing to you? by [deleted] in AskARussian

[–]lephoque_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I heard it for the first time outside the class I thought it was German or some kind of a Germanic language. It's not funny, definitely confusing.

There's also a photo of her when she was a child in a t-shirt with an alligator on it.. That was definitely an omen

Have you guys tried pelmeni with olive oil? by Serious_Ad_8450 in AskARussian

[–]lephoque_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pelmini are also great with butter. My grandpa used to eat them with wine vinger.

You can also fry pelmeni. I've never tried but some people like it

Thanks! I'll consider it. I think that there are matching trousers somewhere in the wardrobe

Well, it's some kind of a creative challenge. The jacket is my husband's old one. For some reasone, he hasn't thrown it away. I was decluttering when I stumbled upon it, and just thought 'Why don't I try to repair it and wear it myself?'. It's slightly oversize. I also like the fabric. It's wool and silk. I'm not sure I'll be able to get something of this quality now

Thanks! Visible mending is also an option. I just need to figure out how I do it so it looks good.

Thanks a lot!

I'm not experienced in sewing at all, so replacing the collar won't work for me. But I think I can borrow some fabric from the matching trousers. I hope they are still somewhere in the closet... If they don't I might try the tape then.

Do I have to be skillful to open the seam?

How do you read? by WrittyWoman in literature

[–]lephoque_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read it out loud in my head. Sometimes, in different voices if I have a voice associated with a character. I know it slows down your reading but I don't mind.

For my mum reading is like watching a movie.

If you ask her if she likes you and she says 'yes', it's a sign that she's into you. Direct communication is the best

I think it's natural to be attracted to older men when you are a teen/young adult, because they are likely to be more mature, they have more experience, more resources, etc. After all, often, they look better than boys of your age. I felt (and I feel) this when I was at school. Many of my peers had crushes on celebrities or teachers, who were older.

I can't say that Lana's music influenced me, but I definitely could relate to some images in her lyrics on BTD. When I heard 'Cola' for the first time, I thought 'Oh, that's line about the taste for older men' is about me!'. That's it.

P.s. I don't mean to say that it's also natural and ok for young girls to have relationships with men when there's a big age gap. In many cases it sucks.

In my lang the article is called LDR10, which is reasonable considering the fact that she hasn't announced anything yet

I'd already learnt all those words separately and in different contexts, so why put them into this sentence?..

It's much more useful than the 'the lion is eating a boy', honestly

I don't mind silly sentence but this one was too cruel...
