How do you know all Russian immigrants know what "for rent" means? Are you their offical spokesperson?

MrSpice thinks so. It is always so funny to read his posts. As I remember sometimes he insisted that he knew better than myself what I wanted.

You are right, Ekaterina. In my defense, what I wrote before would be understood by russians as well. But you know the usage much better than me, obviously. Not only because I begin to forget my language, but because when I lived in Russia, no one rented out their apartments oficially. On other words, I never saw those kind of signs in Russia when I lived there. I stay corrected Smile
