| не "в такой конструкции ставитЬся предлог at", а устойчивое выражение такое есть - to be good AT smth. |
| Спасибо Вам дамы и господа. |
| Нет, Mushroom, это именно конструкция, можно быть не только good, но и bad, clever, useless etc at smth |

Hel, i'm leaving right now, so this is my last post for today. Do you like full-on or psy-trance, actually? Have you ever been to some trance open-air? Ever felt the reeeel freedom of soul? Well, if you're so curious 'bout my nick, try googlin' STROPHARIA CUBENSIS. 8)))) See ya, just Helen! 8D |

2Рудут: "Im not playing these toys, a bit too old for that :)" Too old to forget you play WITH toys, or too young not to know it? :))) Or did you mean "games"? :)) BTW, how's Kolpakchi's book reading? As fas as page 12 now? :)) |
|
2Googler Thank you sir for teaching me, I should have said WITH such toys indeed. Am I a good girl today? :)))) Hey Mushie, Multitran forum is not the place I gonna perform a striptease of the soul, sorry Mr. Googler, did I say this correct? :)) |

Hel - Alrightey, sister 8) "I gonna perform" - well, that's a good thing to sting you then - i'M gonna, actually 8) Bad girl 8))) |

PS Re: how's Kolpakchi's book reading? As fas as page 12 now As faR as you meant to say? Oh yes, I read it every night before I go to sleep just like the Bible. and Im touched to no end that you watch my every move THAT closely :)) |
|
2Рудут: Ungrammatical, clunky in terms of rythm, and un-Englishly laborious... I'd better see w/o striptease altogether. "Lay my soul bare," sorta. THE (!) Multitran forum is no/the wrong place for psychological striptease... |
|
Юпитер, ты гневаешься.... Ухожу подавать заявление об увольнении.... |
| 2Рудут: "watch my every move THAT closely :)) "...you are watching...," you mean. I am. So are you, aren't you? I'd love a mile between my back you you :)) |
| On what grounds? They'll weep, cling to you skirt, and will never let you out the door for lunch... Where else would they find as good a performer? |

| Good. A lady off the coach, the pony trots easier :) You are TOO sophisticated. Keep on your pants, man. I'm discharged from my promise. Free at last (c) |
|
Free at last (c) Definitely. For our mutual satisfaction. And please tell you know who as soon as he comes back, I dont need YOUR help! |
| "TO our mutual dissatisfaction" Won't you ever forgive me now? :) Please do... I'll try hard and be a good boy, for a good boy I am. Used to be one... |
| "FOR our satisfaction" is fine. No need to be so crabby :-) |
|
AS fine. Okay, Google says "to" is more current, does it? Crabby: Crabs leave me cold (c) Though I know someone who loves (and is probably feasting on) 'em right now :) I recall, you trust Google, don't you :) |
