"Cold water"

[ugly-boy.livejournal.com]

I learned a new phrase the other day from the Russian woman at work—хáлодна вадá. I hope I'm spelling that correctly, it was my first encounter with spoken Russian! It's supposed to say "cold water." I put the accents there to illustrate where I heard the stress, in case I got it wrong.

Go on ;) As for me, I can't understand how one can learn Russian ;) If I were not Russian, I barely could learn Russian at all ;))

It seems like a very difficult language with a lot of grammar to remember, but I still want to learn it. I would say the same thing about English, though. It seems very hard and the spelling is so stupid, yet so many people learn it!
