I did not realise that "audio support" meant two CD's only. This product cannot really be used without the book, which I ordered afterwards. Then it was very helpful for learning the alphabet, but even the first chapter is very difficult until you have learned the alphabet. I have learned the Greek alphabet, and did not think I would have so much difficulty, but I am progressing very slowly. Easier books such as the "Talk Portuguese". "Talk Greek" do not seem, to be available in Russian.

Very good support for the text. The speakers speak veeeeeery slowly - but that is better than too fast in my opinion.
