 HN>>> М-да, это неплохо :-(
 MH>> I see your success in Russian :) But if you write
"неплохо" ("not
 MH>> bad") why the smiley is sad
 HN> AFAIK (from RU.NETHERLANDS)  "М-да, это неплохо" means:
 HN> "M-ja (Tja/ M-yes), that isn't so good (beautifull)"
 HN> Thus, because it is _not_ _good_ , I wrote the :-(

No, that means "not so bad".

 HN> М-да, Russian is almost as difficult as Dutch. Isn't it??

Since I don't know Dutch I can't state that :)

        Best wishes,
                     Mix.
