Howdy, ancpem1! Just dropping by to wish you luck with your Greek and Russian studies
this year. That's fantastic that you've already got the Cyrillic alphabet down. Now comes
the hard part :).

Good luck with your studies ancpem1. I'll be interested to see what similarities you discover between Koine Greek and Modern Greek as you progress this year.

Hey ancpem1! Glad you managed to make it to the team! :D As a beginner myself, websites
like russianforfree.com have been indispensable. The basic Russian course is gold, use it
to supplement whatever materials you are using at the moment.

Good luck!

Hello ancpem1. As a fellow Sparta team member I just wanted to wish you a happy new year and lot of success with your studies. I will also follow your progress in Russian. I do that language myself for TAC on an individual basis, but as there are now a few of the Sparta team members who are also on MIR, I will lurk in the shadows of that team.

Hello ancpem1. I really hope you get to a higher A2 or even B1 by the end of 2013!

Today I'm working on learning the Cyrillic alphabet. I hope to have learned it before Friday.

I still need to find materials, so I welcome any recommendations for inexpensive resources.

Hugo's Russian in three months is inexpensive, I suppose, and better than TY or
Colloquial usually.

New Penguin Russian Course is the usual choice, but it lacks audio.

There's also Princeton course which you can get for free, but I assume you mean something
in paper.

I think there's a list of Russian resources on the front page of the team thread. I know there's lots of free material out there, but Assimil would be a good choice if you can afford it. I think Schoenhofs has the set for about $50 if you're in the US.

Good luck with your TAC goals this year!
