Essential Russian Phrase Book (Periplus Phrase Books)
ligytha avatar reviewed Very Complete on + 16 more book reviews


This is a very complete phrase book-- it even provides phrases to say that dentist?! It introduces the Cyrillic alphabet and provides the phrases written in Russian as well as in a transliteration of Cyrillic as a pronunciation guide. A great and unique feature is that it has boxes meant for Russian speakers to point out complicated phrases for you, such as for prescribing medicine, so that communication can be eased. It includes a short grammar and an extensive vocabulary list.
