    Not sure if I want to divulge which one on the open webbernets ATM, so I chose to use an indefinite noun. If there's a need to know, I'll let ya know.

    Don't confuse an honorable private sector job with a 'gubmint funded snitch, mole, and troll job like yours, Zippy.

    No that was what I asked to be translated. Which is why I added punctuation marks.

    o, okay. It depends on context.
    "You didn't say please" "Ты не сказал 'пожалуйса'"(the person being addressed as "you" is male)"Ты не сказала 'пожалуйса'"(the person being addressed as "you" is female). If you wanted to be a little more formal/polite, you could use вы instead of ты. It's not considered disrespectful if you use ты in any context, though. It's just a nuance. ETA: when you're addressing an older person, 10 years or so, you should use вы out of respect

    Not well enough to be an interpreter(interpreters deal with spoken word, translators deal with written word), but I took a lot of lessons from a native speaker. I have yet to find a proper language immersion opportunity to fully master it, but I use film and radio. I also make use of my godmother and various Russians I know.
