garydale Gary Dale Cearley Post Count: 1 Msg: #1 930 days ago, May 7th 2007 | I have a friend who will be going for a short time to Dnipetrovsk (Dnepr) and asked me if I had any contacts there of people he might meet up with. He is a medical doctor from Philadelphia but lives now in Bangkok. Does anyone maintained any friends there from their travels who speak English and might be interested in going out with my friend socially? I would greatly appreciate it if you did! | JuFoss Julia Foster Post Count: 8 Msg: #2 343 days ago, December 14th 2008 | Sorry my reply wont help you at all but after reading this message I caught my self on thought that it’s such a big problem in Ukraine that most people doesn’t speak English. Don’t know why?! | Mell Mell Post Count: 13894 Msg: #3 343 days ago, December 14th 2008 | Hello Gary and Julia | I moved this to the Looking for Travel Companions forum.

Ukrainians do speak English (some of them superbly - I worked there as a proofreader), and with it being a university town there are bound to be students there who will help your friend to find his way around. | Be very careful at night, and avoid the thousands of ghastly dating agencies if you decide to look for someone on the internet.

In this days English is most common subject in university. That’s true. More people speak English but in my opinion, it’s not enough. | Igor Kyiv Igor Post Count: 9 Msg: #6 317 days ago, January 9th 2009 | In fact a lot of people do.... | but noone knows who needs help with language & when... lack of communication IMHO JuFoss Julia Foster Post Count: 8 Msg: #7 314 days ago, January 12th 2009 | Oh please. In kiev people do speak a little bit of English, that’s true. But do you recon it’s the same situation in the whole Ukraine or even in Dnipropetrovsk (look at the origin question). I doubt it. | Number of Users: 5 | Number of Posts: 7 | |||||||||||||||
