Where to start when learning a new language?
Sumerax replied to Nadnight258's topic in Promote your Website/App/Game/Video
I'm a big fan of interactive online courses. There are several that I use, one of them is Memrise.com . It's a free to use platform where natives and fluent speakers create courses for the languages they know. More on - http://www.memrise.com/about/ You need to make a free account so you can view the courses, registration is very easy. You can see all the Russian courses here - http://www.memrise.com/courses/english/russian/ A good explanation on how to use Memrise(in the article from point 1 to 5 are most important) - http://www.wikihow.com/Learn-Languages-with-Memrise Some "hidden gems" I found that can be useful are: If you want to practice the Cyrillic alphabet - http://www.memrise.com/course/85443/russian-alphabet-9/ The most popular Russian course on the site is(but don't rely only on it) - http://www.memrise.com/course/78454/learn-basic-russian/ "Russian grammar through sentences" - http://www.memrise.com/course/163312/russian-grammar-through-sentences/ "Conjugating Russian Verbs" - http://www.memrise.com/course/94006/conjugating-russian-verbs/ "Common Russian Vocabulary"(The first 1000 words of Russian, most commonly used) - http://www.memrise.com/course/49168/common-russian-vocabulary/ A memrise user can take multiple courses. Also every course has a forum. Also I recommend the Russian subreddit on Reddit.com for resources - https://www.reddit.com/r/russian And remember, self-motivation is very important.
