Hi,, everyone!    

Learning a language is always a time-consuming activity. An endless way to walk. Why? Because it’s changing constantly.  

 So, Internet and cell phones let us communicate in any moment and everywhere. And how we are pretty lazy and very clever, we manage ourselves to make it easy like this: SMS: ru goin pub 2niteEnglish: Are you going to the pub tonight? SMS: hi m8 uk? Sry I 4gt 2 cal u lst nyt- y dnt we go c film 2moroEnglish: Hi mate. Are you okay? I am sorry I forgot to call you last night. Why don’t we go and see a film tomorrow? Well, I want to learn Wink So, why don’t we practice together? I’ll write a message and the next one will translate it into English and will write another one and  so on…Let’s go!  SMS : gr8 idea cu l8r Keep your smile!Smile
