Oxford Beginners Russian Dictionary 1e
R376.95 (incl. VAT)
The Oxford Beginner’s Russian Dictionary is an innovative guide to learning Russian. Designed specifically for English-speaking adult learners who are either learning from scratch or refreshing lost language skills, it offers an easy to use dictionary, extra help with vocabulary, and essential information on living and interacting in the Russian-speaking world.
The dictionary is exceptionally easy to use, because it moves away from the traditional dictionary layout. All main translations are preceded by an equals sign so that they are instantly identifiable, and all parts of the entry are spelt out in full, avoiding confusing jargon and abbreviations. Grammar and usage notes throughout the text warn of possible translation pitfalls, and thousands of example phrases show how the language is used in context.
The 30-page Learning and Lifestyle kit gives key information on both the Russian language, with a list of the words you really need to know, grammar help, and verb tables, and on life in the Russian-speaking world: background information on lifestyle and culture, tips on etiquette and interaction in the language, and a phrasefinder for use when travelling.
