If you want to translate anything from Russian (some phrase, maybe) then I'm at your service. Our language is tough

Mainly because it has synthetic structure (grammatical meanings are displayed by inner altering of the form of the word) as opposed to analytical English (grammatical meanings are displayed by means of syntax - word order, auxiliaries, and so on). Synthetic languages have many irregular forms and exclusions (just like irregular verbs in English, that in fact are the remnants of synthetic-analytical Old English grammar)
