One of my coworkers speaks Russian as his native language, and he is leaving next week. Would it be appropriate to say "Do svidanya" (written in cyrillic) in the farewell card for him, when I am probably never going to see him again?

I would like to write a little something in Russian, but I don't remember much from when I took it in college.

Examples: Many people from the Netherlands and Scandinavia are great at speaking English. Many Spaniards can speak francais. Just examples of what I have noticed!

For example, Joseph in Hebrew is Yosef, Jacob is Ya'acov, etc. I guess my real question is...what is the Hebrew word for Judaism? And if you know, how do you spell it?

When I want to describe someone or something that is "baduy" I can't seem to find the right expression, "old fashioned" is somehow lacking.

....to prove the largest or one of the largest insurmountable obstacles to establishing ongoing communication and possibly even trade (of both ideas and goods) with these visitors and with their home world? Or will either we or they by that time have invented the universal translator? Is such a device even possible? How close to achieving this are we now with just earth languages?

I will be doing a presentation on Italian culture for my advanced Italian language course. The presentation will specifically be dealing with food and how it brings people together and that occurence seems to be more prevalent in Italian culture. I will also be presenting a few easy recipes. I would like to tie in some Italian proverbs or sayings that specifically deal with food and family. Since I am not Italian, I don't know many of these expressions and I would like a native speaker to assist me with this. I need these expressions to be written in Italian and an English translation/interpretation would be appreciated. I understand that proverbs do not always translate properly into English, but I am good at figuring things out. I will be presenting recipes for a meal from start to finish including gnocchi and biscotti. If there are any proverbs that mention those particular food items, I'd like to know those, too. I appreciate any help anyone can offer. Grazie mille.

I'm only still in year 1 spanish so if you know spanish fluently or have taken it, try to keep that in mind maybe? But I can't remember if i've already learned these two words or not. I'll probably know and recognize it if someone says it. I'm just having to write this paper and my sentence is "A girl went for a walk one day." Or i'll change it to "A girl goes for a walk one day."

Any help please?

In the last session we learned about non-action verbs like : Think , Love , Like , Need , Want and etc. and we learned that we can't use these verbs in present progressive tense . But i have seen in many web sites that they use these verbs in present progressive tense !
like : I 'm thinking .. I'm living it .. and etc .
Why ?!
