+2 Cool Resources

Zlata Karlova has created "Have fun with Russian" website, where you will definitely find something to your taste.Here is what she says about the project:  “Have Fun with Russian” – an unusual way to learn one of the most difficult languages in the world, and do it with a smile and pleasure.
This project has been specially developed for people with different language levels from absolute beginners to advanced learners. Through the language aspects we try to cover a lot of ground: culture, geography, business, history, music, and what is more important -  the way of life in Russia. Here you can find a lot of language games and quizzes, podcasts, idioms as well as dialogues, super audio grammar, pictures and news. Most of the texts are accompanied with audio which is another advantage of the project.

Thanks to posting on SEELANGs I found out about "Russian Ruslan Services", where material grouped under categories.

Enjoy learning while exploring!

Typing in Russian

Dear friends,

One of the recent discoveries this wonderful learn to type in Russian on-line program. I know many prefer to do phonetic keyboard, but let's get serious and learn the original layout.

I learned "слепая печать" (blind typing) when I bought a new laptop, and did not have Russian stickers. One day, I sat and started typing. Althought, I have to admit that I had practice my Russian layout for 2-3 years before it happened.

You can do it!
