Hi, I'm back with some questions, how do you say:
-I speak better than you
-he is bigger than you (so, how to compare things...?)
-lower
-higher
-by haerd
-sheet music

Franz, how about if I teach you some examples of Which, and, What.
Those ones are a little simpler.
Kakoj eto krasivyj yazyk.. What a pretty language this is
Chto na ctole?..What's on the table?
Kakaya segodnya pogoda?..What's the weather today?
Kokoj on umnyj.. How clever is he
Kakoe segodnya chislo?.. What is the date today?
Kotoryj, Kotoraya, Kotoroe, Kotorye, Kakoj, Kakaya, Kakoe, Kakje.. All of those are,, Which, and, What.
Those get declined like adjectives and must agree in gender, number, and case with the noun they modify.
Confused yet?

Franz.. Kak, and Chto,, are both.. How, what, and like.
Kak vas zovut? What's your name?
Chto vam nuzhna? What do you need?
Kakoj magazin vam nuzhen? What kind of store do you need?
Kakaya ona krasivaya debushka! What a pretty girl she is.
Franz, Kak isn't always What, How, or Like.
We can get into that later.
All those above are just some of the ways to decline the word Kak. I've never seen the word Chto declined.

Thanks a lot both!
I have an other question for you:
How do you say: I am happy THAT you didn't forgot me.
How to translate the 'that'.
Can you simply say 'ia rad ti ne zabvaesh menia' ?
I'm just guessing...

In this particular case THAT can be translated into Russian что (shto) but it is not necessary so you can absolutely say what you said above.

Franzie, Here's a couple of inquiries into a Train Station. You may already know how to ask these things. But heh, a few more words won't hurt.
Skazhete mne, Pozhalujsta, Gde Vokzal?
Kak mne dobrat'sya do vokzala?
Kak popast' na vokzal?
Gde mozhno kupit' bilety?
Von tam kassa.
