hey freshman and the rest i am russian so if u guys need any help in translating or you wanna know anything just post it up or send email. Ill be glad 2 help

Daydreamer: thankyou for your explicit reply. I found it interesting and yes they are on the puppet string of slavonic languages.

I am from the North of England 30 miles north of Newcastle and our accent is very strong being Geordie. Either people like it or loathe it. It is quite unique in England compared to other accents.

I was told in school our accent was similar to the Norwegian language and sure enough I witnessed this from a Norwegian girl talking to someone. I could understand her conversation. Everytime she said something I turned around thinking she was talking to me.

The words we use when speaking broad Geordie are doon for down, gannin for going, oot for out, nivver for never, heyya for have you, ye na for you no, tekkin yi for taking you, alang for along, yill for you'll. There are many more words and also books of Geordie words and also we are noted for the Geordie sense of humour.

Although I do not speak broad Geordie and I use proper word pronouciation it doesn't matter where I go in this country, people will say you're a Geordie.

So despite trying to speak correctly I still have my accent.

Hi Ivy,
Wow, u speak Geordie - I had a friend who spoke it too. It was amazing. The first time I heard her speaking to her mother on the phone I was stunned! I wasn't able to make head or tails out of that weird stream of words But I enjoyed listening to it.
I think different accents and regional dialect add so much to the beauty of language, but on the other hand, make it harder and a bit more discouraging for learners. You study a language and then go to a country where it's spoken only to find what you have learnt is not enough to communicate My friend, who's an English-Polish translator and has a really good command of the language, went to Ireland and his conclusion after the trip was "They understood my English but I totally failed to understand theirs."

Hi Daydreamer:

I have found that after holidaying in many foreign countries. English is spoken precisely in many countries as they are taught the command of the English language. It sometimes seems very perfect coming from foreigners where we pick up everyday living and slang.

It puts me to shame when I hear foreign people speak it so well. Not that there is anything wrong the way I speak because I think I have quite a good command of the grammatical issues of the English Language.

I can't myself understand many accents in my own country as some of them differentiate from area to area.

Thanx for book names..and I can offer a book too..Kabuljan Murzaev-Türk Dünyası..This book is read us at university and not bad for beginners like me..I think it is very difficult to learn a language only from books..I tried and it came me very hard..If I have time and money I will go to a Russian course in this summer...
Regards,

That's right.I do understand that because have same problem with learning Turkish.
My suggestion is read aloud, listen to yourself. That helps.Read simple books for children.And if you, guys have any problems I told you before, I will be glad to help you.

Hey bliss, I know some Russian and I'd love to have someone to practice it with. If you have a yahoo! or MSN Messenger account I'd really appreciate it if you could give me you e-mail address through a private message.

Poka!
