4.0 out of 5 stars Russian Vocabulary, August 2, 2009

This review is from: Russian Vocabulary (Barron's Vocabulary) (Paperback)

This is a great book for study when you don't have much time. The vocabulary is grouped by category, so you can learn all about vegetables while you're eating lunch. This also eliminates a lot of flipping pages since everything is on the same page. It also works well as a regular dictionary. Very compact but the font size is a little small for some eyes. If you can't read small print you might want to pass on this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars good little book, wide variety of vocab, September 18, 2010

This review is from: Russian Vocabulary (Barron's Vocabulary) (Paperback)

I bought this book for my sister when she entered first-year Russian, to go along with her Oxford Russian Dictionary. I've taken a few years of Russian myself, and what I like about this book is the way you can flip through and pick up new vocabulary on the go. I've also found it's available at a variety of big-box bookstores. It's small type but the print is clean and the book feels nice. If you're looking for something to build vocabulary, this is a solid and compact choice -- it had new words for my sister in her first year, and me in my third year alike!

As a longtime student of Russian, I recommend this book to anyone wishing to expand their vocabulary. The words are relevant and useful. Definitely worth the money.
