I know the verb быть is never used. Except sometimes есть. But what about in situations where it is absolutely VITAL, such as "I know you are, but what am I?" Or "I am!? I didn't know that" *chuckle* or perhaps "Are you?" These questions sound very loaded, but it's actually not. It's just now that I realize that, and find it quite funny.

EDIT: I'm sorry to have said this so late, but I meant the present conjugated form of быть is never used.

Why must online translators be so stupid???

Does anyone know of a good online word decliner? I can't get the full declensions of words like "love" and "dream" where the plural is also a verb. It's so annoying...
