No matter how many extra classes I've had already, I regularly get in trouble translating some Russian phrases, not even supposing how those might sound in English. So here's the question: how can I ask about the fact when students have usual classes which begin early in the morning but sometimes these classes start a little later.
How to ask a person to make yourself sure of the time your first class starts on the next day? My options are:
"Which class is your first tomorrow?"
"Which class do you go to tomorrow?"
or just "Which class do you have first tomorrow?"
If any of these ones above are wrong, please reply and yeah! Give your grammatically right options!

  • I say this because you said you wanted to be sure of the time the class starts, and none of your questions ask for the time .

Which class is your first class tomorrow?
What class do you attend first tomorrow?
What is your earliest class tomorrow? When does it start?

I prefer the third.

CalifJim I quite got you. And I meant that you didn't get the question only because I didn't express one well enough for understanding:)

And yeah, believe it or not but it sometimes turns out hard to convert russian questions to english because those are of different types and sound completely different in each language

Indeed. And it's just as hard, or harder, to convert English to Russian!
