It does sound difficult! The Russian things I struggle with the most are word form, grammer, and spelling (but I struggle with that in English too, so…).
I know a Russian lady through BQ, (She loaned me the pre-school book.) But I only see her at BQ tournaments.
Question: Was the book a Korean college book, or a college Korean book?

It is traumatic. I was telling my brother about my book and about Rubin, when suddenly I stopped and just said “oh no.”
He started laughing.
Since then it has been a battle of ‘why’. If his death wasn’t a pivital point in my story, he would have a good chance of surviving. As it is, I already have a song for his funeral.

Ah, English, that wonderful headache.
I’ve heard Korean is difficult. What do you think of it, and how are you learning?
I’m using Babbel, Duolingo, and a Russian preschool book.

Aye, (oh dear, this is what happens when I start thinking medievally) I understand about the username thing. We are all varying degrees of our pen names. Truly, someone else on here can’t really be a dark-furred, fluffy snake-eating creature. It’s the thought behind it all …

Hi there, @trahia-the-minstrel, it’s very nice to meet you!
That is so funny, what is your tale about, and how is lertan pronounced? Here’s a bit more on Eirtan:Â [eeir tahn(r is flapped with EIr said farther back in the mouth)]a country, the head in the two brother-nations of Eirtan and Yartas, main enemy? Dorwin.

Oohhh! We call that Nationals. I’m not sure about other districts,(Alaska Yukon sent only one team this last year.) but Texas sent 4 Senior Experienced teams to the 2021 Nationals. (I don’t remember the number of teams for the other divisions.) -

Are you familiar with or know Russian? I’m still learning, but it’s a beautiful language!

Thanks?
Otto’s accent is supposed to be German influenced, but my more recent book is Russian and may have bled over in the rewrite. Both German and Russian have a ‘v’ sound instead of a ‘w’, and no ‘th’ sound. I don’t speak German, so I’m not as familiar with it. They do sound similar to most people. Russian is spoken from the…[Read more]

@anatra23Â I’m not sure, it’s little like Green Ember with humans, or the Ranger’ Apprentice but cleaner, or Wingfeather with no “magic”: is that fantasy? As for the thought out part, I’m writing my first draft, and although I have only the prologue and part of the first chapter, I have made up scenes all throughout the book. That’s how I make up…[Read more]

I don’t even have a first draft written out, so you’re a lot farther than me!
Here are a few lines from Otto Wiskar and Miles Chaser(an old story of mine I’ve been rewriting;
“Vat are zay trying to do? Git us keeled?” Otto spat at trench floor.
“Actually, yes, I believe that is their intention.”
Otto sighed and nestled his…[Read more]

I quiz in the Texas district, so yes I do. I believe we have had teams from the border, but I think their church was in Texas. We have districts in every State and Canada, so if that counts as internationals… I’ve been wanting to start a program to add in other non-english speaking groups, but it would be a ‘bit’ difficult.
Ooo, captaining can…[Read more]

Whatever you would prefer. I’m a pentacostal also, and I’m trying to figure out how to teach Bible studies. I have only ever seen Search for Truth, and was interested in how this one worked. If you want to teach it again I would be happy to learn!

Sorry I took so long getting back with you.
