Okay, let's try some complexish constructions?

Я писала Mere о куртизанки школа.
Ренард писал своему брату о ключ Ника. Он сказал, что Эрик никогда не будет получить ключ.
Ник писал своей матери о монетах Закинтоса. (Yeah, I'm not sure on that transliteration.) Он просил ей, если она бросила их в вулкан.
Дии писала своей матери. Она советовалась с ей о мальчиках. И один мальчик в частности.
Пётр писал Стар (Звезда? или Звезде?). Он советовался с ей о своей/их (depending on the timeline, I guess, and how reconciled they are) дочери.

I think that's all the time I have for Russian today, and I think tomorrow I really should figure out some verbs to do ahead of time. And on the other hand, complex construction is worth practicing anyway, so.

... and you know, anything else I could have had to say now pales in comparison to the Boston Marathon explosions, so I'm just going to leave these here.

And please remember that this just happened a few hours ago. News is still coming in.

*just hugs*

*hugs tight*

Я писала Mere о куртизанки школа. -> noun in Genitive after the noun it specifies! о школе куртизанок.
... and then I found a Russian club thing that... you know. *flappy hands*

Ренард писал своему брату о ключ Ника. -> о ключе

Он просил ей, если она бросила их в вулкан. -> просил её

I think you can go with Стар. Or Звезде. :)

*hugs you very, very gently* People are stupid.

.... oh dammit. *facedesk* I knew that, the genitive one, and somehow my brain reversed which noun was in the genitive case. I have no idea how. Other than exhaustion.

... right. Okay, that's... not bad for complex sentences.

*hugs, sighs* People are sometimes assholes. Fortunately many more people, it seems, are not.

*snugs* And the o preposition is one of the easiest, because the noun it specifies almost invariably goes into prepositional case. And, yeah, I can see where that mix-up will come from.

Not bad, nope! :)

*snuggles tight* Indeed. And we can do our share to which ones we go among.
