Yes, being Russian I say "duju" which resembles DO YOU and is derived
from the verb _dut'_ - _ja duju_ = to drink a lot.
Blow is a rare word for English speaking Russians and contains W which
is not tipical for Russian language.
Truly yours, Valery Belyanin and Irina Boutenko, authors of "Zhivaja
Rech'".

>>Dear Heinz! Russians may say:
>>Do you pivo everyday (duju = pju. shutlivo o pive)
