question on dates

[dezelina.livejournal.com]

Hi guys,

I have a few last questions, before my Russian final tomorrow.

1.  Whats the difference between с / до and с / по when expressing dates, ie

Мы будем в Москве с десятого до двадцать пятого июня and

Мы будем в Москве с десятого по двадцать пятое июня.   

Also, can someone explain to me the difference between these statements in english?

МГУ был основан в 50-х годах 18 века.

В 20-е годы Пушкин написал огромное количество стихов.

В 60-е и 70-е годы 19 века Чайковский написал свои лучшие произведения.

В 80-х годах 19 века Толстой был уже известным писателем.

Thanks again, in advance!

 

 

The Difference between 'я, мне, меня'.

Hey everyone! :) I hope everyone is doing well! I finished my first year of university along with my first year of formal education in Russian. I do have some questions though..

My teacher has yet to really explain the difference between я, мне, меня.

I find myself often confusing мне, and меня. Now, what really stumps me is the мне.

If anyone is patient enough to try to explain the differences and in what instant you'd use them, I'd be forever grateful!

Also, I was wondering if anyone is still interested in being chat buddies. :) I finally got around to getting ICQ because I noticed that MANY Russians are still using ICQ. If you want to add me, I'm slow at conversations but I appreciate the practice! 591022109.

Спасибо большое! :D
