learn_russianI'm curious how Russians would express the following sentences. In particular, I'm interested how Russians express the common English phrase "a little."
Could some of you Russians please give your best translation of the below sentences.
She can speak a little bit of Russian.
He only likes vegetables a little bit.

Wait just a little longer, please.
A little bit of kindness goes a long way.
