Hey!! What are the best online resources for learning Russian for a beginner? =]

Heeey ❤

I have been using youtube a lot, so everything here is about youtube videos, the links are in the body of text.

So, first, you have to learn the alphabet, this video is fantastic, the woman’s method really works.

The channel Real Russian Club have a playlist teaching “from zero to fluency”, I like the way she teaches and it’s very basic, beggining with the alphabet. She teaches a lot of grammar too.

Fedor (a native russian) has a channel called Be Fluent in Russian, he has small videos explaining some grammar and vocabulary stuff, he has some videos talking slowly (with english and russian subtitles) and about russian culture, also he is very sympathetic.

I wonder if every language learner already knows the Easy Languages, they have great playlists, for some languages - russian, for example - they have the “super easy” version, it’s very basic, give you a lot of vocabulary plus they talk about their culture. Awesome, right?

To practice the listening and reading + comedy -> Room Factory and Black Horse used to have subtitles (mainly in russian, but sometimes in english too).

Also Duolingo is great, obviously.

Basically, I don’t have a method, I just mix everything and pray to be fluent in the near future (good luck for us)

hi it's been a long time. i just wanted to share that yesterday my girlfriend and i watched 'past lives' together and there was this scene between arthur and nora where he talked abt not being able to understand her when we sleeptalked bc she would talk in korean and my girlfriend turned to me and said this is why i want you to learn russian because even in the gibberish that i'll speak i want you to be able to understand me (in a way that there is nowhere in her where i can't reach her like the way arthur felt about nora sleep talking in korean). and well now i am learning basic russian and let me tell you, what did i get myself into

Hozier’s songs except they’re organized according to their vibe.

Sitting on a beach alone at sunset when it’s a little windy, you’re thinking of someone specific but you don’t want to admit that to yourself, you feel content but somehow a little sad:

Shrike

Wasteland, Baby!

Like Real People Do

Cherry Wine

In a Week

You see someone attractive at a bar and suddenly you’re swept up in an alternate reality where you two are madly in love:

Talk

Jackie & Wilson

Movement

NFWMB

Moments Silence (common tongue)

It Will Come Back

To Be Alone

Dancing alone in your kitchen on a hot, sunny afternoon with the windows open. All your housework or homework is done and you have the evening to relax:

To Make Noise (sing)

Nobody

Almost (Sweet Music)

Someone new

Your friend’s garage band is playing at a bonfire, everyone has eaten and it’s dark out. It’s a little chilly, you have on shorts & a sweatshirt sitting in a camp chair by the bonfire while the music plays and suddenly you’re having a spiritual awakening:

Be

Sunlight

Dinners & Diatribes

No Plan

Sedated

Would That I

Realizing that your lover hung the moon and stars, a god/goddess among mortals (with a bonus helping of religious guilt):

Take me to Church

From Eden

Angel of Small Death & the Codine Scene

Work Song

Run

You’re struggling with some strong feeling. You can’t place a name to it; it’s primal, destructive, and overpowering. You feel like a god made skin and bone, you just need to express this feeling but you don’t know how:

As It Was

Foreigners God

In the Woods Somewhere

Arsonist’s Lullabye

Nina Cried Power

asfdhgsdkjhgb

my day today 😇

my 2nd year scheduling this

#my day

sea-mists

feels like every few weeks I have to relearn how to exist, that I do need to sit in the sun and move my body and not drink too much coffee and dress in clothes that make me feel good and talk to my friends and journal and get off my phone sometimes and eat vegetables and drink more tea and generally reclaim the space in my life for myself ya know

#the nice things you do for yourself
