Thank you very much for the explanation! I wonder why they didn't use the more common sentence form in the lesson? Maybe because they thought it would sound weird to English speakers?

Congratulation on your diploma :-).

I received your PM, but for some reason the site tells me I'm not authorised to send PMs, so I can't respond :cry: .

Christa, I know you're crying or very sad :cry:, and that's why I've got a perfect idea to cheer you up :D. Since you don't have an opportunity to send private messages, write me your Skype account in this thread. We'll get in touch and discuss everything)

Hi, Christa,

just a humble comment on letter Ё. Old Slavonic language has no such letter, so you won't find it in the Holy Scriptures. And we pray in Old Slavonic (though there are those who advocate for usage of modern Russian in this context). Besides, when a priest (batyushka) addresses the flock or any audience, he says "Братья и сЕстры!" (not сЁстры).
Happy Easter time!
