this is so great because im a spanish native fluent in spanish and english who just spent the better part of a year in china and came home to a russian course.
Your second sentence is in the past form of conjugation, making it sound like you are saying "I understood." not so much "I understand." Can this be clarified please? I just want to know why you used the past conjugated version instead of the generic 'Ponima-yu' ^-^ thanks!
sorry source book written in chinese sometimes I didn't get the tense right in English. But sometimes tenses don't always translate exactly. The idea is to understand from input and practice with that. This is how I acquired more than 20 languages.
@Glossika It was alright ^-^ It could have still made sense using it in the past tense because then you would be saying "I understood" Meaning the last thing they said, I am not Russian so I don't know if they would say it that way, but I think it would work? I was just curious ^-^ Great job!
@Glossika Russian relies on aspect more than tense. понял refers to the point at which you understood, the light bulb went off, you "got it." So although it looks like a past form, it refers to a present point after you understood. Similarly, "got it" is a past form with a present interpretation in this usage - for the same reason :) BTW: понимаю is pronounced puh-ñih-máh-yu, not -ni-. Also, tighten up your prepositions like "с" and "в" - с вашем should sound like звашым not сэ вашэм. Good job!
@ZhallaMakhe some parts of his video were a little iffy, i mean he made it sound like he was saying " I understand" which should have been wrttin as "Я Понлмаю" but in russian " I understood (which is past tence)" is written as " Я Понял". So I hope I have made things a little bit clearer for people.
Triangulation (see related video). Besides there are more Chinese people learning Russian than English. Even the reference book is written in Chinese.

also, a very important one is "Понятно" which is like saying "I see" (if you can't read Russian letters yet.. that's pronounced like "puh-NYAT-nuh")

Wait...Chinese? What?
I don't understand..how does that making learning Russian from English easier? Maybe it does, I don't know, but how?
