I like that word (: I've noticed in German that you put a lot of words into one instead of adding adjectives before the noun. Is there rules to it? I'm sorry, what I've written sounds confusing to me, so it's okay if you don't understand what I was trying to say.
Your name is cute. You should like it. I do (:
I'm just oversensitive D':
I live in Moscow, which is okay for the majority of the time.
That's fine. You're lucky to have an easy to pronounce, pretty much international, monosyllabic name (:
Are you meant to give them money? My family say not to, otherwise they'll want more, but I feel bad if I don't. I can't imagine seemingly homeless people being so greedy, but I wouldn't know without the experience.
In English, apparently it's pronounced nah-DYEZH-dah, which sounds about right. Or Nadiya is like a short name, if that's easier.
In retrospect, it was quite funny. This woman chased me with her kids, and I didn't know what she was saying but she was probably begging. It made me feel bad, but she shouldn't have chased me, really, haha. (:
It's actually Nadezhda, but it translates into Hope in English so I use that when people can't pronounce my name. I think I might prefer it in English, too.
I'll revise that (;
Is there any other essential phrases? Like if I'm being chased by homeless people (like last time...)
And it might be interesting to know my name in German... have you got a version of the name 'Hope'? If so, is it the same as the word 'hope' or not? (:
If you're a high up politician you get to visit other countries. Not to mention the EU and G8 etc. I don't know what I should do about it though, some of my friends protest and boycott things but I don't get involved for some reason.
Haha so at least I know at least one German phrase (: That and [i]Mein Gott.[/i] I'm terrible (: Yeah, Polish is really hard.
You sound really quite ambitious (: Medicine sounds interesting. I've thought of working in politics before, or perhaps interpreting. I don't do much to show enough interest in either.
I'm meant to learn German for school, but I'm not so good at it. I just say [i]Ach so[/i] a lot, but I'm not sure if Germans actually say that? I speak only Russian and English, unless you can count half-hearted attempts at Polish (which you can/should not!). (:
