I wasn't being awkward or finnicky on purpose. I arrive on this site with good will, and I'm not a fan of internet squabbling of pettiness. How do they have the fastest growing internet population in Europe? Seriously, I would like to be able to understand this as it has me confused! Is this "fastest growing population" only referring to the 40% that covers Europe or does it include people from the other 60% of Russia. If it takes it from the whole of Russia including the part which is not over northern Europe then really the statement is a bit misleading, don't you agree? I'm not trying to be an idiot, it is a legitimate question so no need for any attempts to try and belittle me. Peace and love from the UK! -Bojimha Well my Russian friend Reshila could you please elaborate and tell me then? I wasn’t being awkward or finnicky on purpose.

The verb is: cease. 1. The idiom is: never ceases to amaze me. Both are point 1 on purpose ;-) Normally I wouldn’t want to waste words nitpicking spelling, but:
