What would you like to know?

Неактивен

I would like to learn colloquial English that I could speak on it, look films in the original, read books!

Неактивен

So you want to learn more slang? Slang is regional, it varies depending on the area.
Неактивен

Not absolutely. I would like to learn to talk in English. Now to write here messages to me it is necessary to use the translator...
And I would like to communicate more freely in English

Неактивен

Oh ok I think you meant conversational English. colloquial English refers to regional English, that's why I thought you meant slang.
I use the translator to translate everything to Russian, but it does a very bad job!
You are still studying English at university? That should help a lot. Other than that I would say talk and write to people. Try to write on your own and use the translator less and less. You can practice on us.

Thanks, I will try. In advance I apologize for my disgusting English.

Неактивен

That's ok! Mine is pretty bad when I do not pay attention and it is my native language!

This is very good and easy to understand!
Here is what you need to do:
I must be 'I' and never 'i'
Nouns almost always need to have 'a' or 'the' in front of them - 'a dictionary', 'the translator' or 'the translator'
Verbs - I've just got one thing to say and it's hard to explain. Say 'I write' if it's what you always do 'I write slowly'. If you are doing it now, this minute, say 'I am writing'.
I can't write any Russian without a translator, and I hope you can understand this English because the translator would mess it up.
Неактивен

Thank you. I understand.

Practise you English by reading the forum here! Look at how people write, and learn from it.
Do NOT be ashamed of your English. Stop using a translator and practise, practise, practise.
English is not my first language. I studied English for 11 years at school before I moved to the UK. I thought I was good at it, but it still took me another ten years to REALLY learn to understand the language and all the cultural and regional differences, and I still make mistakes every single day. Have patience, and don't be to hard on yourself.

That's not bad at all!!!! I understood it just fine. Yes I's are supposed to be capitialized, but you'll probably see a lot of people forgetting to capitalize them because they are on a forum. But you do want to learn the language correctly.
I would just change "I write the message with dictionary" to "I wrote the message with a dictionary", if you've already done it, the past tense. Doing it this minute is "I am writing" like Magrat said.

And i can do the same? I dream to speak and write in english, and not to use a translator)

This topic is open to everyone...
I advice not to use a translator program unless it's really needed. It's better to build a sentence word by word.
