learn_russianI've been going back and doing old exercises in my Russian for Beginners book (I fear I went far too fast after chapter four and absorbed NO vocabulary)- and I just have a few questions.
"Here is a blackboard, and there is a map." - would one use вот for both "here is" and "there is"? If not, what would "there is" be?
"This is not a pencil, but a pen." "This is not a book, but a magazine" - would one use а or но for 'but'?
--will add more in a while.
>> A little while later....
"I am home today" - "я дома сегодня" or "я сегодня дома"?
"What is Mr. Petrov reading?" - "что госпордин Петров читает?" or "что читает госпордин Петров?"?
спасибо!
