Hello Everyone,
I'm a French/English speaker from Canada and I have to learn Russian. I used to learn it and I have some good basics. I can speak pretty much fluently but I have a few problems with my written expression. Do you guys know an efficient book for intermediates? A book giving a very good immersion and deep knowledge. I'd like to precise that I know very well a few native Russian speakers so I am able to get my work corrected by them. Many thanks, Hitman Edited by Fasulye on 27 October 2011 at 7:58pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Try this link.
http://www.allrussias.com/abc/one_1.asp It has 16 chapters in total. or http://www.teachyourself.com/books.aspx?isbn=9781444107647 "Complete Russian" - Publisher: Teach Yourself. Year 2010. It's written by a British lady who's taught Russian for about 20 years. It has about 400 pages and it has 20 chapters on daily subject matters. It teaches and covers from level 1 to level 4 of the international standard of CEFR. I've pasted the chart of CEFR from wikipedia below FYI. A. Basic Speaker --------------- A1 [level 1] Breakthrough or beginner A2 [level 2] Waystage or elementary B. Independent Speaker --------------------- B1 [level 3] Threshold or intermediate B2 [level 4] Vantage or upper intermediate C. Proficient Speaker -------------------- C1 [level 5] Effective Operational Proficiency or advanced C2 [level 6] Mastery or proficiency *more details on the chart below link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_European_Framework_of_Re ference_for_Languages I consider myself to be right about the center of level 3, and I find it refreshing on the grammatical points, explains it clearly in plain English. Although, I've notice seldomly some misprints/mistakes by the author[?] and you may spot them too but not such a big deal to overall rating, and it is very well worth the price, 16 british pounds. 4 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Hi Radu-1987
Thank you for you quick answer. The website you gave me looks very good. I hope it will be very useful. There is only one issue. I have moved from Canada to France and I have no good access to English books. I know very well the Teach Yourself series of books. Unfortunately here I can't buy it... Do you know if there is a PDF version of available? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I don't know any I'm afraid.
I got links for pdf files of Russian tests with answers though. That's about it. Here Edited by Radu-1987 on 19 October 2011 at 10:26am 1 person has voted this message useful | |||
