Привет, меня зовут Cара.
Hello, my name is Sarah, and I'm studying another language! Russian!
I want to learn Russian because it is the language of the largest country in the world!
(Russia covers an amazing 17.075.400 km! That's over one eighth of the entire planet's land area!)
It was also the language/birthplace of my favorite Romantic era composer, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Well, actually I shouldn't say favorite, his work is really the only classical music I can instantly recognize and name because he wrote all of the greatest ballets. I do listen to other classical musics though, but only when they feature cellos.
I'm studying the language through two very comprehensive language sites: Palabea and My Happy Planet. These sites allow you to review lessons created by native speakers, and also to work directly with somebody whose interests are inversely related to yours. So for example, I study the lessons available on My Happy Planet daily, and then I go over to Palabea and chat with a Russian native who is trying to learn English. I've had more language-learning success with these sites than I've had with any other resources besides public school.
Пoka! Bye!
