2000 Most Common Russian Words in Context: Get Fluent & Increase Your Russian Vocabulary with 2000 Russian Phrases (Russian Language Lessons)

This is a practical guide for learning/improving Russian vocabulary. I love that it starts with words you'll use/see more often and works up to the ones less frequently used. I have a guide to 800 commonly used words, and the first page includes words like 'adjustment', 'angle', and 'apparatus'. I'm sure these words are good to know, but they're not the most helpful for someone just starting in the language. This book has words like 'and', 'in', and 'he' on the first page. Rather more useful than my other guide. I also like that this book has sample sentences using the words. The sentences also seem to get more advanced throughout the book. Overall, this seems to be a helpful, practical guide.

I just got this book two days ago and I have already been through the entire thing! I love the context sentences, although some are beyond my level, they are another wonderful way to expand vocabulary. I highlighted all of the words that I already know and will now concentrate on those that I don't. The only thing that would be helpful to me, would be to have the stressed vowels bolded. I don't care for the way the stress marks are notated in this book. Also, eliminate the cursive font in the introduction. Russian is hard enough to read without adding cursive! Otherwise, I highly recommend this book if you are studying the beautiful Russian language.

Good for what it is. The description fits it well. Won't teach you the language but some key phrases are there.

Like the other Lingo Mastery books for languages such as French, Spanish, German, Italian and Portuguese, 2000 most common words in Russian is a great addition to any program of language study whether one is taking a course, learning with a tutor or roughing it out in self-study. Because these words are presented and learned in the context of real (and useful in their own right!) sentences, you end up learning way more than the 2000 words in the title and also are exposed to and pick up Russian grammar through reading simple comprehensible input (a well researched and frequently recommended way to acquire languages). Highly recommend!!

Excellent book to use to build a solid working vocabulary. However, it is necessary to know the basics of Russian grammar in order to gain from using the book, so you will need a companion grammar book. I happen to like The New Penguin Russian Course

I just bought this book on Kindle and I'm already so happy with it. I really believe that learning the 2,000 most common words is going to help me a lot. And I love the way the book is laid out. It has the example sentences for each word in Russian and in English, and the word itself is boldfaced in both sentences, so you can see the word order. The Kindle version was inexpensive too.

I purchased this so that I had a hard copy of the most frequent 2000 Russian words to make flash cards from. It suffices for that job. When I first got the book I was happy to see that it has example sentences to add clarity to the process. My issue is that the ideas amazing but the execution is poor. I can’t speak to the issue of poor direct translations mentioned in other reviews but it wouldn’t surprise me. Also many of these words have multiple meanings. ie. В can mean in, on, or at, however the book often only gives you one example sentence and you are left wondering how the word would be used in other ways. This is no small thing seeing that the word probably made the list because it is technically used often because it has multiple meanings. If you only learn one 3rd of its utility then it doesn’t really help your fluency as much as they say it will.

Very effective and fun way to learn words in context and remember them! Lingomastery continues to so an outstanding job with all their language programs. Happy to see that Russian is an option with them. Audio accompanying the text is a wonderful option. Looking forward to more excellent products.

NAO SEI... FOI PRESENTE

ロシア語に慣れるために今まで学習してきた英語と比較で覚えられることはとても効果的だと思う。ロシア語は今、最も学ぶべき言語である。

These books work great, I have the Russian for myself and Spanish for my daughter. If you actually read, work to remember, and use a little creative imagination these become extremely useful!

As a wanna be polyglot I am always looking for sources that could help me achieve greater levels of fluency. I've constantly changed my method trying different techniques to master various languages. I was looking for a resource to experiment with the Gold List method and found this amazing book. One of the best techniques to acquiring vocabulary is to review vocabulary words in CONTEXT. When I reviewed the book, I realized that if the context provides much more than the 2000 words in the title. If you put this list on ANKI or you use whatever retention technique you will be able to get a deeper level of understanding how the words should be used. I highly recommend this book! BTW I am an international attorney and have to learn multiple languages for my profession.

Small words, the beginnings of expressions , important prepositions are all listed systematically.
