So I’ve started by using a computer flashcard program and have entered the Cyrillic. I’m just doing a few cards a day. Things are moving pretty slow, but since I’m in school I don’t have a lot of free time. I have decided that it might be best to just write out the alphabet each day rather than just guess the English equivalent.

I jsut want to be able to write, speak and read russian fluently. I have spent a lot of years of my life to get this language where it is now, but im not sattisfied. Its like you begon something and then do not finish.Hmm, I think my main issuaes would be writing(havent written anything in russian for about 13 years)and to improve my speaking skills. I think Im doing pretty well, but I need to searh for words all the time and my pronounciation isnt the best.
For as to take russian courses I can not do this at the moment, but at least i want to try to read more in russian.

I started learning it in college but I guess life got in the way.. Hopefully by the end of the year I can at least be conversant.

My mini-goal within this goal is to pass the TORFL exam level 1. Unfortunately, you don’t find materials to prepare for this test like you find for the TOEFL

to be able to speak Russian. I’d really like to move there sometime in the future, at least for a little while. I need to stop procrastinating and start on this.

i got a dual-language book, “Russian Stories” that was edited by Gleb Struve.
i’ve been reading out loud then checking along with the story, and have noticed my language itself has improved. which is excellent. that was my biggest issue when i took it in college. we learned it, but hardly spoke it. so just reading it is increasing my knowledge and understanding of the flow, (thank goodness this book has the accents marked. ax-te!)

and right now i’m halfway through ‘the stationmaster’ by pushkin.

my hubbie was laughing at me because i called him to let him know i was irritated because i was so interested in the story, i wanted to read ahead in the english, but i’m not allowed.

one minor note, if anyone can comment on it, do Russians really use that many commas?

anyway. i’m seeing words i remember and it’s coming easier!

The Russian gentleman is long gone (we only went out about 5 weeks), and I have more pressing, realistic goals for now. I think I speak well enough for any opportunities that may come up, but I do need to practice to keep this and my Italian and Spanish fresh. Pretty rusty.

is the answer to my vocabulary issues! Ура! It’s also helping me type better in cyrillic.

cutting bait with the Russian gentleman. (Yes, so soon.) This goal may have to go on the backburner for awhile… :( ЖАЛЬ.
