Я поистине пропускаю вас.

Is this how you say something to the nature of "I truly miss you"? If not, please show me how in both cyrillics and english characters if you can.

Spasibo.

OT: Dim. of Russian name

Heya,

I'm sorry as this is "a little" off-topic, and I shall bow my head in shame, but I couldn't find it out any other way. I am looking for the "nickname" or "diminitive" of a Russian name. So, Ivan becomes Vanya, Aleksandr becomes Sasha - but what does Vadim turn into?

Thanks a lot!
