I’m Kate, 21 years old. I’m a student English in a university here in Vietnam. Nice to be here. As far as I concern, this web site is really great. I could meet and discuss with many people here. I hope you could help me in learning English.
I’m looking forwards to hearing from you all!!!
You’ve managed to get over difficulties – that’s great!
Welcome!
Whatever ‘Kate’ is your real or just a virtual nickname, it’s widespread - all around the world.
In my culture (Russian) it’s Ekaterina (old form – Katerina), ‘pet name’ – Katya.
Hope to see you in other Forum’s parts, as well as here
Tamara
(To be honest, I’ve never in my life met someone with the name. Neither in Russia, nor in other countries. )
Tamara means ‘a palm tree’.
The pet name of Tamara (in Russia) is ‘Toma’, but in my childhood my parents were (and my friends still are) much more creative
Would you like to give us a clue, what you name means (I have no guess) ?
I meant that I’ve never met Tamera (spice) – please, see my above post and the link.
Certainly, Tamara is a quite widespread name in Russia (and for unknown for me reasons - in Germany, as the same link tells).
As I know, it comes from Georgia, long ago.
Tamara is also a variant form of the biblical name Tamar, which, as you said, means ‘palm tree’ or ‘date’. Tamara is actually quite a modern name in Spain, where you can find a few.
I’ve just make friend with Kate. She is also from Vietnam, like me. I’m happy that we have a such interesting companion here with you all.
Can you join me in my topic :lol:,please. We’ll talk more about Russian, OK ? I think in this topic we’ll talk more about Kate and all things related to her. Maybe, it will be more convenient !
