In the Volga River fish still take place?

Yeah, there is a lot of fish in the Volga yet, especially breams, pikes, sheats (not shit though it's also presented), and if you're lucky one you can fish even a sterlet, our local kind of sturgeon.

Do you have English speakings friends?

[SergeR]

Rather partners than friends.

[camelia]

With business partners did not talk much.
Business correspondence?
A standard set of 200 phrases?

[SergeR]

Yeah, it's quite enough for communication.

[camelia]

Boring is not it? And... normally. But the work is necessary.
In short, and clear, without excessive emotions.

I knew only in "English Courses School" few people, talking in English!
It's funny to speak with person who knows only one language - English!
And not understanding russian or ukrainian (in my way)! =)
Have anybody been to USA and used English in real american life?

It's funny i mean if you can't say something in english and other person don't know any other language except english and you can't explain in other language!
Funny for people who don't know english very well!

I see  ;D right, there can be some tricky situations ;)

[camelia]

That god forbid, that made me first your slave,
I should in thought control your times of pleasure,
Or at your hand the account of hours to crave,
Being your vassal, bound to stay your leisure!
O! let me suffer, being at your beck,
The imprison'd absence of your liberty;
And patience, tame to sufferance, bide each check,
Without accusing you of injury.
Be where you list, your charter is so strong
That you yourself may privilege your time
To what you will; to you it doth belong
Yourself to pardon of self-doing crime.
I am to wait, though waiting so be hell,
Not blame your pleasure be it ill or well.

I distinguish one that shakes the spear though sounds quite modern I guess.

Well, it happens the post number 1666, it's funny...


One more poetry:

Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go,
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for its living,
And a child that's born on the Sabbath day
Is fair and wise and good and gay.

Answer one of the best examples of nonsense in English literature:

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

It is better not to move or translate... :)
