4.0 out of 5 stars Want to learn Russian? Heres how..., July 23, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Essentials of Russian Grammar: A Complete Guide for Students and Professionals (English and Russian Edition) (Paperback)

So, you know a little about the Russian language and you want to learn all there is to know about Russian grammar? The Essentials of Russian Grammar is the book for you! It takes a look at all aspects of Russian grammar and covers them very in depth. If you learn the materials in this book, you will know enough to be fluent in Russian , and thats a fact.
But this book is not for the faint of heart.
It can get a bit complicated, so a some knowledge of how the language works is probably required before diving into this one.

I'm one of those crazy Slavophiles that happen to love languages as well.

I enjoy studying ahead in Russian, and I feel like my textbook doesn't cover enough for me. I purchased this and I do not regret it. I love having this book - it provides the right amount of information for me. If I want more in depth information on a certain topic, I refer to the internet or my instructor. It's a great reference for those who already have a good background in the Russian language, and a great supplement during instruction.

This book is an excellent reference for Russian grammar due to it's short and concise form. Clear examples are included with most topics which also add value. The only thing this book is lacking is an index (but it does have a table of contents).
