Learning Russian!
Alright so I'm not "fluent". But I understand a big deal of it usually. If anyone interested I could teach them some basics of how to format basic sentences, understand basic instructions, respond to questions and just "get by". I'm not going to be able to teach you to go into a Russian classroom and write a report but if you're interested I can teach you how to say "I can't write a report" lol? If anyones interested, I'll make up some spreadsheats for you breaking down the declension (breaking down) of Russian words. And their uses in cases and how to use the correct feminine, masculine and neuter endings. I really want to study with some people to help improve my Russian. As of now it's quite "plohoy". If you're interested let me know so we can form some type of a little study group lol! If anyone who speaks Russian fluently as well is interested in helping out, I'd appreciate it and I'm sure some others would as well. Anyone wanna go for it!?

Lesson 1
I'm starting some spreadsheets as we post lol!
|
Well I read this in a site... mmm,, specially for Spanish speakers about vowels pronunciation,,, Se pronuncia como is something like It's pronunced as....
Vowels Pronunciation It's really basic but oh well. This doesn't work with English Speakers since vowels vary,,, example I (in spanish it's pronunced as in thin - only the I, not a-i), ans so O (o not o-u) and E (e not i as thin).. bahhh,,,, don't read this :bum: The whole course is here..... in SPANISH only 50 lessons :rolleyes: .... Offtop: Hi Vanik, too long he he,, I dunno where to contact you,,,, you'd better be around man :mad: ,,, ha ha :p , welcome back. |
Alright. I've got the first section of our lessons planned out. This is how the outline will go until further noticed. I will upload all of the spreadsheets to the internet for you to download. You also won't have to hunt for them because I will edit my first post in the topic to feature everything. Alright, this is how our exercises will go for the Nominative Case's Introduction.
1. Learning Nominative Case Basics - Pronouns 2. Pronouns and Verbs in the Nominative Case 3. Using Plural Nouns in Nominative Case 4. Forming sentences with The Nominative Case using Verbs 5. Final Review of the Nominative Case. __________________________________________________ ____ 1. Learning Accusative Case Pronouns 2. Pronouns and Verbs in Accusative Case 3. Nouns in Accustaive Case 4. Using Plurals in Accusative Case 5. Forming Sentences in Accusative Case 6. Final Review of Accusative Case __________________________________________________ ____ 1. Learning Prepositional Case Pronouns 2. Pronouns and Verbs in Prepositional Case 3. Nouns in Prepositional Case 4. Using Plurals in Prepositional Case 5. Forming Sentences in Prepositional Case 6. Review of Nominative Case, Accusative Case and Prepositional Case. __________________________________________________ ____________ Once three of the six cases in Russian have been generally grasped by most people. We will move into Vocabulary for Russian in this direction. 1. Numbers and Counting 2. Places and Telling Time 3. People and School 4. In The Work Enviornment 5. Shopping 6. Foods _________________________________________________ Then we will apply our vocabulary skills into compiled worksheets of the first three cases. Such as forming your own sentences correctly using the new vocabulary. This is all I have planned SO FAR. _________________________________________________ Requirements for Using The Worksheet Below 1. Worksheet is Completed in Microsoft Works Word Processor. Please download a word document viewing program or have someone copy the files to a format you can use. 2. Please have the ER UniversIV2 and ER UniversIF2 Russian Coded Fonts (Not Cyrillic Text - Just Cyrillic Covering for Latin Phonetic Letters). If you do not have these font's - you most likely will not be able to see the Russian text listed on the spreadsheet. WORKSHEET 1 - Nominative Case Introduction http://www.sendspace.com/file/bezsux |

And we're not going over numbers until after the first three cases are taught. |

That's so awesome... :D
(now if only someone could do that in German!) |
I can do it in German for you too if you'd like QueenBee. I've only had a year of German.And not to brag as you can see I kinda have a thing for langauges, it comes easy to me. So if you want, I can make some verb conjegation pages and sentence sheets for you as well as some vocabulary.
(BTW - does anyone have any problems seeing them or getting the ER universal fonts?) |
Talyubittu, oh my gosh, could yoooou? That would be really amazing!
Quote:
Eh... yes. Also, fonts can be downloaded here: http://www.russnet.org/fontInstXP.html They're both in the zip file. :) |
Quote:
I'm putting them into microsoft word 6. And if that dosent work then I'll put them into another program like wordpad. I'll just have to do some formatting. Do you want German ones too then? |
Talyubittu, you're an angel :)

I've got plenty of time to do it. Like I said, I'm only a year into German classes, but I know quite a bit. I can conjugate verbs for you, show you how to build sentences, tell time, order food in germany, get around a city etc. Just basic stuff for now but you'll have a nice introduction into it and I can update the more I learn as well :).
LOL. and I doubt a lot of people here think I'm an Angel LOL. |

I meant that when transliterating text - you are supposed to use phonetic letters. You cannot combine certain alphabets together to get an effect. |
for the german lesson: I can help if it's necessary - just pm me if you need help:)
EDIT: Also I like the idea of making a russian lesson - although I'm learning russian in school for 3 years now. |

Yeah, learning languages can be hard for some reasons: 1. Not the same pronunciation of letters (in case it's the same alphabet) 2. Not the same alphabet (it's dead!) 3. Different grammar rules 4. New grammar rules 5. Coherence. 6. Rare vocabulary and pronunciation Ex. in French there's an expression "chez" which means "at someone's house" in Spanish "en la casa de...". I mean "Chez Dj_volk" means "At Dj_volk's house" or in Spanish "En la casa de Dj_volk". And for ex. to count numbers 6, 10 are pronounced six ("sis") and ("dis"), but when we talk about a number of things (numbers folowed by a noun) it changes and the "S" is not pronounced.... 6 (six) kilometers in French in "Six Kilométres" (Si - Kilometr). And numbers,, :lol:,,, just to say 80 in French i's said something like 4 times 20. 80 = Quatre-vingt (Quatre=4 Vingt=20) and see.... 90=Quatre-vingt-dix I still doubt how those numbers are written (quatrevingt or quatre-vingt) BTW Anyone interested in learning French????,, ah ahhahhah :lol:,, sorry I had to ask... I see we've all gone offtop here so lately. |

Some updates!
As, I have been very busy and cannot continue to take 50 minutes a day creating these sheets, I've found an alternative for you guys! xLingo.com is a great place to find someone who learn another language with you via MSN/Skype, if you don't have skype, download it, it's amazing. www.magicrussian.com - is also good. But not free - it's an online class over skype and lastly - if you just wish to be able to type some things in Russian, but don't have a Russian keyboard. use http://www.translit.ru/ if you type somthing in using latin characters (these), it will automatically translate it into russian cyrillic, correct endings and all! I hope this helps! |
-.- i guess misses this thead too...
erm..*cough* could somebody upload the first lesson again? :rolleyes: :rose: |

Most computers have a universal language feature. Start > Control Panel > Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options > Add other languages > Details... Most of you will have english as the default language, but if you don't, all of this works just the same. You will see a white box under "Installed services" that shows what languages you have installed. Click "Add" and you will see a drop-down menu. On the first drop down menu, select Russian. And Russian (typewriter) should automatically appear in the bottom drop down menu. Click Ok. Then at the bottom of the original language screen, it should say "Language Bar..." Click that and you will see check boxes. Check the FIRST and the THIRD box. Click Ok then "Apply" Now, in the bottom right corner of your screen (on the navigation bar NOT your desktop) you should see a little box that says "EN" or letters that represent your default language. Click on that little box and you should have choices. Russian should be one of those choices. Upon selecting "Russian," you should be able to type in Cyrillic. However, of course the Cyrillic alphabet doesn't correspond to the English alphabet so you will just have to figure out what goes where. I, myself, have ordered Cyrillic keyboard stickers. Check it out :coctail: |
Гыгы....for what,if they sing on English too?:flag:

And I'm sure if you used it enough, you'd memorize where each character was on the keyboard. |

-- Like i said above, could somebody upload the 1 Worksheet again? please? :rose: :rose: :rose: Offtop: Edit: lol nobody can upload again for me? :rolleyes: people hate me :( |

Just thought I'd mention that you can also use the on screen keyboard. Programs> Accessories> Accessibility> On Screen Keyboard You can use that along with and after setting the computer to type in Cyrillic. |

а я вот английский хочу выучить)
But i tried to learn English.Though... i think it is much easier than Russian) Good luck in studying) If anyone needs help-I'm ready to help) |
What is a dick in russian? Like an informal, obscene word for penis? I never find these in dictionaries.
And I´d like to hear other obscene words (curse words etc) in russian too ´cause otherwise I´m never gonna learn them (there are no tv series to teach me filth:cry:). So please..:rose: |

If you want to dive deeper into Russian slang, I recommend the russian and english wikipedia pages. As beginner's collection of polite words you may try this site. If you can't get enough, use your search engine and type in cyrillic мат. There are lots of interesting links. |
