Stone, in russian "Foto plastinki" mean glass plates.
By the way do you speak russian.
Я говорю по-русски, но плохо
I took a 3 month class at a local college and speak more Russian from those 3 months than the 4 years of Spanish I took, something about Russian is just easier for me. I think it's the Cyrillic, I'm a visual leaner and it's just easier to memorize in a new language with unique characters than try to re-organize "english" letters to Spanish words.
You lean visually?

Yes some people are auditory learners, some visual, some need physical action/experiential memory.
Everyone can learn all ways, but most people lean heavily in on particular way, so for example I REALLY struggle with auditory learning, so if I go to a lecture, unless there is also a visual presentation on a chalkboard/whiteboard/projection with information, I won't absorb much of the lecture.
This is why in school they have you listen, write down the info, then re-read it, and speak it out loud, to cover all the bases of different types of learning so that overall you have a good chance at remembering the information.
Some people are the extreme like "photographic memory" where some people literally can remember everything they have ever seen, including visualizing a single page in a book they read 10 years ago and being able to recite the whole page and tell you the page number etc, probably the date they read it, and other details, but those are extreme cases.
So I'm a visual learner, I memorize by seeing, I'm not able to photograph the memory per-say but much more prone to learning by seeing.
Very nice. We can talk sometimes. Russian is my native. I was born there.
