  • A good basic introduction

    A good basic introduction with useful phrases. But it’s a shame it has no Russian (Cyrillic) in the book. It only has phonetic English spellings of the words.

  • "Learn more Russian"

    I feel more initial language study needed to benefit from this book. Think it's more aimed at intermediate dummies than total beginner like me! However, more use more advancement!! will keep going.

    It isn’t for dummies….pronunciations are not accurate. Russian friend couldn’t understand.. sad
