"Вот мой офис."
Translation:Here is my office.
27 CommentsThis discussion is locked.
«Мои» (note the stress: мои́) is a plural form (вот мои́ о́фисы — here're my offices), «мой» is singular masculine form (вот мой о́фис — here's my office).
There's also a singular feminine form моя (вот моя́ ко́мната — here's my room) and singular neutral form моё (вот моё зда́ние — here's my building). To find out the gender of the singular noun, you can use a dictionary (later you'll learn to guess it from the form of the word). The plural nouns don't have a gender.
Nope, because "вот" specifically means "here is", like showing someone a location or where an object is. "This is" would be "это".
I have heard that Russians are lazy to type, they type "и" instead of "й", like Serbians write sometimes word "ćevapčići" - "cevapcici". Of course, only on computer. Is that true?
Er... Not sure. Maybe if they are really really really really lazy, but then why type at all?

What does this post mean? Is someone complaining about something? What is "ангар подземный"? Google translates it as an underground hanger. Or is this an inside message, meant for specific people and I should simply not worry about it?
This post is an example of very sloppily written messages that nevertheless have the и/й distinction.
Those messages are about some game and it's difficult to translate then without knowing the context. Ангар подземный is really 'underground hangar/airshed'.
The rough meaning of the messages is:
Gifts every day according to a filter — [I] would be glad to exchange — Please join only if you're an active player, level 5 or higher — Respect my requests, if you don't I'll delete you anyway, so just don't join — 54 level
I'm looking for friends that will give me a gift of БП [???] every day. I don't ask you to do anything else, I don't request or beg for anything else.
I've just seen it today that there is an underground hangar. It's not a [temporary] event; I wouldn't even have noticed it.
I think БП is бесплатные подарки ("free gifts"). Took me a minute to understand.
no, it's diffrent letters and sounds and we never replace it by each other и is a vowel and sounds like "i" in "fish" й is a consonant and sounbs like [ɪ] in "pie" and "toy"
the situation that you describe is suitable for е and ё russians often write ё like е even in handwritten texts, but it's still read as [йо] so this can create difficulties if you don't know that "e" is actually "ё" in the specific case for example мы передохнём - we'll take a rest мы передóхнем it's pejorative, correct - мы умрём) - we will die
No. Й and И should not be changed. You can write E instead of Ё in informal speach.
Alright, what is the difference between вот and там? Apparently they both mean "here/there" as in pointing to a place, but здесь also means here and I keep getting confused.
I think вот translates to "here", with the idea of pointing something out. For example, Вот парк! = Here is the park! (Behold, the park!) and там is there. For example, Парк там. = The park is there. Of course, there is also здесь. Парк здесь. = The park is here.

When I translated vot as there, I was marked wrong -- even though duo says it means here and there.
so I answered "here is my office" without capitalization or punctuation and it marked me wrong
Can офис mean both 'office room' and 'office building' or only the former?
Офис is not gender neutral word. Офис is masculinum. But здание - building is neutral, комната (room) is femininum: Это мой офис. Это моё офисное здание, это моя офисная комната.
