My problem is I try to speak in Russian as I do in English, so some phrases that don't quite translate sound stupid anyways . . so here, I guess I just sounded twice as stupid . . .reason this is an FML is the Japanese guy I like is in this class, and they don't talk that way . . .he wouldn't have known what I said or my mistake, if the teacher hadn't gotten shocked and translated it into English AND Japanese FML lol

YDI for trying to learn Russian. Seriously, Russian?
Yes, the courses in Klingon were all full.
Russian takes more skill than you know. Russian is tough but fun to learn. I'm only 5 weeks in my first course. Spanish is much easier. I'm taking both, although I'm much more "fluent" in Spanish. Фок ю фор хейтин он Русские студенты.
I don't even know what this is, russian letters used to talk in english for only half the sentence?

Wow, way to show respect.
The declension system is just so damn different from English, it's really hard to grasp. But apparently, English is the hardest language to learn.
english is the hardest language??? ye right!

The hardest language to learn is Japanese, then it is English, as it doesnt really make much sense to everyone else as phonetics aren't all that accurate, and then it's russian. People take for granted how easy their own language is.
I've heard that English is one of the easiest languages for basic communication, but one of the hardest to learn to speak like a native. Most of my fellow Americans don't speak or write it particularly well, I must admit.

My native language is Russian, and I'd have to say that English is definitely harder.

My native language is Russian, too, and I find English one of the easiest languages to learn.
English was very difficult for me! I'd say it was the hardest language in my opinion to learn, over French and Russian. But I guess we all say that when it's not our native language!

Это печальная история, я извиняюсь, но это было довольно забавно!
So you felt good? Taking a good shit is one of the most liberating feelings in the world.

Yeah, swearing in Russian is a difficult thing to do, because there are few words with more than one meaning, so "shit i stubbed my toe", "i need to take a shit", and "this show is shitty" all use different words. Same goes for different meanings of ****. Seriously though, this is a pretty big YDI if you are at the level of learning the language where you have to speak entirely in that language in the class, you really should know the difference between a verb and a noun, even if you don't know the different forms of shit (which is forgivable).

You have to put a little blame on the fact that OP was sick and felt like shit so they probably weren't thinking straight.

Not an FML...you're always going to screw up when learning a language. Just be happy it happened in class.
Not an FML. If you were fluent you wouldn't be in class.
Is this an FML? I say "nyet". YDI for taking a Berlitz class though.
The only time you were in the process of making shit today is when you posted this "FML."

Why would you even say "like shit" to your professor? Maybe you should've gone with "terrible", or "ill". This would never have occurred if you possessed more tact.
Oh no, you made a mistake in a class of a language you're learning! Quick, to the internet and tell everyone how much your life is ruined by this! This is so not-FML worthy I cant even bother to click YDI.
