tarvos, well, my Skype is available to all forum members, I just need to be warned somewhere about time and possible goals of conversation :)
For example, I could've tell you how our government made us to study organic chemistry during one semester only, and I think I can do it in English too, hehe)
P.S. Today's evening all free)

Back in September you asked about the task „Sometime I’d like (learn) to play the guitar.“ Tarvos correctly talked about moving sometime to the end, and that with sometimes one could say “Sometimes I’d like to learn to play” where “I’d” is “I would”; interestingly, if you use the gerund “learning”, you can get a colloquial recollection of distant past where the “would” is emphasizing a contrast, e.g. “When I was a child, sometimes I would like learning to play the guitar, but mostly I hated it.” It's similar to the emphasis with "do".
Just for info.
Jetzt mal deutsch üben. Ich hätte echt schwören können da wäre noch was, das Du gefragt hättest, jedoch kann ich die Frage nicht finden. Na ja. Auf jeden Fall lese ich weiter und wünsche Dir viel Erfolg mit beiden Sprachen.

Belardur, thanks for this info! It's always funny to see some turning of the words meanings due to traditions and grammar structure. It's just like using "like + verb infinitive" to express not something that you like, but what you need to do.
Ich bin sehr froh es zu hören. Und die neue Frage werden hier sein. Ich glaube, dass du die andere Zeit mit meinen Fragen haben wirst. Lass mir noch jetzt beginnen - warum schreibst du "Du" und "Dir"? Ist es eine grammatische Regel oder nur eine Wahl?

Ist nur Wahl, glaube ich. Ich kann mich nicht erinnern, dass man gezwungen würde, Du und
Dir zu schreiben. Es sieht auch ganz komisch aus...

Oh, ja! Es ist wirklich seltsam, besonders für einem Russischen sprecher :)

Es ist nur Wahl. Man solltest in Deutsch immer "Sie" schrieben, aber wir konnen beide Optionen wählen. Ich mag nur "вы" schreiben. Und "Du" ist in Russischen etwas als Englisch "thou".

Also, man hat die Wahl, ob die Anredepronomen groß- oder kleingeschrieben werden. In Briefen, Emails und SMS ist die Großschreibung sogar empfohlen. Bei Erzählung o.Ä. allerdings wird das nie gemacht. Ich habe die Großschreibung benutzt, weil ich Dich schriftlich direkt anrede. Es kommt mir auch vor, dass man sich ein bißchen mehr darum kümmert, wie etwas schriftlich mitgeteilt wird (was weiß ich, bin Geisteswissenschaftler).
Du Groß- oder Kleinschreibung
Übrigens, ich habe "bißchen" so gelassen, wie ich das Wort geschrieben habe; neue Rechtschreibung wäre "bisschen".
