Hi Ruslana san,

You can say "私は＿＿＿に興味があります" ( I'm interestede in ....)

                 or "私は＿＿＿に興味を持っています" ( I have an interest in ...).

I've also seen 興味 きょうみ used with 持つ　もつ。Is it ok?

なくなって is the te-form of the godan verb なくなる.  Thank you for asking!  You made me realize that we hadn't introduced this verb;;  なくなる means "disappear" or "get lost."  

As we learned in the lesson "Don't Cry Over Spilled Milk!," the te-form +　しまった is used when you do/did something and it does/did NOT turn out as you or others expect(ed). 

Hope this helps!

Don't understand the meaning of  "なくなって" in this sentence にくもなくなってしまった！ Can anybody help?

After almost 6 months I'm finally done with the beginner course :D

On to the advanced one now!

ロジャーさん, Good question! The sentence is supposed to continue, for example, ぜんぶ、じぶんでしたらいいのに(You'd better do everything by yourself)、お姉ちゃんは、じぶんでしない。(but you don't do that by yourself) The latter part is kind of obvious, so Ryu just didn't say that and ended the sentence in the middle of it. This happens a lot in conversations. Hope this helps!

I need help with this one ぜんぶ、じぶんでしたらいいのに Why did he ended up the sentence with "に" Is that a childish way of speaking or why is that form used?
