How to Learn MORE Russian Words Fast
Wanna learn new words and phrases fast, so you can speak and understand more of your target language? In this video, you’ll learn all about Spaced Repetition Flashcards You’ll learn about why this particular study tool is so useful and how using it can help keep vocabulary words fresh in your mind. First: here’s what’s new with our flashcards You can now access your flashcards on any mobile device. They’re mobile responsive. So, visit the site on any device: iPhone, iPad, Android or any tablet. Access the Flashcards, and learn anywhere, anytime. But what if you’re a new language learner and have never seen this tool before? Second: What are spaced repetition flashcards? What are they and how do spaced repetition flashcards teach you words and phrases better than regular flashcards? First, imagine a regular flashcard. Imagine a teacher is quizzing you with paper flashcards. On the front, you see the word in the target language. The meaning of the word is on the other side. Your teacher shows you the target language word and asks you what the word means. If you get the answer right, your teacher puts the card in a pile of “correct answer” cards. If you get the answer wrong, your teacher puts the card in a pile of “wrong answer” cards. Spaced repetition flashcards are like a digital version of this, but a computer sorts your answers into “correct answers” and “wrong answers” and then chooses which cards to quiz you on accordingly. With a spaced repetition flashcard, you see a word. You mark whether you know it or not. You learn whether you were right or wrong. Then, you get the next word. But what exactly is Spaced Repetition? Third: How Spaced Repetition works This is the part of the tool that makes the flashcards so powerful. If you get a word wrong, you’ll see that card more often, until you get it right. The card will keep popping up until you remember the answer. Spaced repetition flashcards help you focus on the words you don’t know yet, or the words you’re weak with instead of asking you to review words you already know well. If you get a word right, you’ll see that word again in perhaps 2 days. If you get the word right again after waiting 2 days, you might see the word 4 days later. Then 16 days later, and so on. As you study and remember words, the flashcards will appear less frequently. This is because you’re remembering the vocabulary and don’t need to spend time studying the words you already know. Spaced repetition flashcards help you study words at the right time. The flashcards will track your progress. This means you don’t have to remember which words you got right or wrong. The flashcards you are quizzed on will be customized to your knowledge level every time you study. And the quizzes will also help you keep your memory fresh. Remember, we don’t learn things simply by seeing them once. By repeating our studies over a period of time, we remember things better. And the best part is that you can study vocabulary and phrases in just a few minutes a day. So, if you’re on the train or bus going to work, you can put that time to use. Take out your phone and learn new words. Just a couple minutes every day will help you learn new words fast.

Discussing Language Abilities in Russian – Breakdown
Let’s look at the dialogue. When I read, I want you to pay attention to the words showing the languages. Find what these words are and see how they’re used in the dialogue. Здравствуйте, вы говорите по-английски? (Zdravstvuyte, vy govorite po-angliyski?) Hello, do you speak English? Да, я говорю по-английски. (Da, ya govoryu po-angliyski.) Yes, I speak English. First is a formal greeting Здравствуйте. (Zdravstvuyte). Hello Then the question. Вы говорите по-английски? (Vy govorite po-angliyski?) Do you speak English? Then the answer. Да, я говорю по-английски. (Da, ya govoryu po-angliyski.) Yes, I speak English. Or Нет, я не говорю по-английски. (Net, ya ne govoryu po-angliyski). No, I don’t speak English. Now let’s look at some speaking examples. First, you’re asked the question Вы говорите по-русски. vy govorite po-russki? Do you speak Russian? And you would answer. Да, я говорю по-русски. (Da, ya govoryu po-russki.) Yes, I speak Russian. And, if you ask about Japanese. You can answer. Да, я говорю по-японски. (Da, ya govoryu po-yaponski.) Yes, I speak Japanese. Now let’s look at the sentence pattern. This pattern will be the structure that all of our dialogues will follow. Да, я говорю по-[language]. (Da, ya govoryu po-[language].) Yes, I speak [language]. You may have noticed here that the word for English по-английски (po-angliyski) is a little different from the vocabulary section. The words in the vocabulary section are all adjectives referring to the language. Some example phrases are “английский актёр” (angliyskiy aktyor) – English actor “русский язык” (russkiy yazyk) – Russian language; “немецкий паспорт” (nemetskiy pasport) – German passport. When referring to the ability to speak a language the prefix “по” (po) is added with a hyphen, and the ending “й” (y) is removed. This is done for every language. Examples are по-русски (po-russki); по-японски (po-yaponski). -

Talking About Your Hobbies in Russian – Breakdown
Let’s look at the dialogue. When I read, I want you to pay attention to the words showing a hobby. Find what these words are and see how they’re used in the dialogue. Какое у тебя хобби? (Kakoye u tebya chobbi?) What’s your hobby? Моё хобби – рыбалка. (Moyo chobbi – rybalka). My hobby is fishing. The question. Какое у тебя хобби? (Kakoye u tebya chobbi?) The answer. Моё хобби – рыбалка. (Moyo chobbi – rybalka). “У тебя” (“u tebya”) is the formal version of the word “your”. You can also say “твоё” (“tvoyo”) instead of “у тебя” (“u tebya”). For example, “Какое твоё хобби?” (“Kakoye tvoyo chobbi?”). The meanings of these words are the same. And the informal version of the word “your” is “у вас” (“u vas”) or “ваше” (“vashe”). For example, “Какое у вас хобби?” (“Kakoye u vas chobbi?”) Or “Какое ваше хобби?” (“Kakoye vashe chobbi?”). This formal pronoun is usually capitalized to show respect for the other person. And now let’s look at some speaking examples. Моё хобби – путешествия. (Moyo chobbi – puteshestviya). My hobby is traveling. Моё хобби – путешествия. (Moyo chobbi – puteshestviya). Моё хобби – плавание. (Moyo chobbi – plavaniye). My hobby is swimming. Моё хобби – плавание. (Moyo chobbi – plavaniye). Моё хобби – чтение. (Moyo chobbi – chteniye). My hobby is reading. Моё хобби – чтение. (Moyo chobbi – chteniye). By the way Russia is one of the countries where people read the most. People read in the subway, on buses, in lines. Now ebooks are the most popular. Russians prefer to read psychological, motivational, professional literature but they also don’t forget about fiction. Now let’s look at the sentence pattern. This pattern will be the structure that all of our dialogues will follow. Моё хобби – [hobby]. (Moyo chobbi – [hobby]). My hobby is [hobby]. The word [hobby] can be a noun, as shown in today’s lesson, or a verb. The word “cooking” as a noun does not have a proper translation in Russian that could be shown as one word. The word “готовка” (“gotovka”) has a little bit of an informal connotation. It would be better to use the verb “готовить” (“gotovit’”), which means “to cook”. “Моё хобби – готовить” (Moyo chobbi – gotovit’). -
