Hi Tanya,
It is true. Long time no see! I think that expression of ours is strange. Of course it is just a shortening of "It's been a long time since I have seen you". It reminds me of an old joke. An immigrant comes to the US and wants to buy some fish. It smells really bad. So he says, "Long time - no sea". OK it is a bad joke.
Speaking of expressions, concerning your question, we say somebody is doing or making baby-talk. I am sure you are very familiar with how we so easily make new expressions by adding nouns to do or make. It's along the same line as do the laundry, do lunch, do a movie, do homework or make the bed, make a mistake, etc., When the baby itself makes intelligible sounds we say the baby coos or babbles. I never know who is sillier, the baby or the adult doing baby-talk.
Hope all is well with you. I have been communicating with a man in Kiev. He is writing and I am correcting. He is telling me all about the politics and life style in Ukraine. It is very eye-opening. Take care, my friend.
yes i still can't, but don't worry I'll try it all over and over again..But you have already gave me your email I just cant found it in the site when I tried or, maybe that was not for real, isn't it?
It's me again, Renante. I tried to join you in your group but I did not know how to, I'll just try it again. Anyway, thank you very much for giving me your attention and professional advices. Hope it'll last longer.
