russian news
новости недели на упрощенном русском языке
Russian Webcasts are posted to the web twice monthly and deliver a survey of the previous two weeks' news in simplified standard Russian Listeners of Voice of America's "Special English" broadcasts will recognize the slightly slower rate of speech and textual redundancy which characterize these webcasts.
Why ? Back in Soviet times, the news was easy to understand. The propaganda-laden messages were predictable and the diction clear and slow. Post-communist newscasts feature telegraphic speech and slurry diction. Our webcasts serve as a stepping stone between the teacher talk of the classroom and the "real" Russian of the media.
Authentic news. The news itself is taken from a number of Russian sites, including Lenta.Ru, Vesti.Ru, Ytro.ru and other authentic sites. The editorial "slant" is left unchanged and should not be taken to represent the views of the NCLRC.
The accompanying exercises include pre-listening background information, vocabulary support, and post-listening activities. The exercises are written in the multiple-choice or fill-in formats. Listeners can check their answers with a mouse click.

babla russian
bab.la – это языковой проект Андреаса Шретера, Томаса Шретера и Патрика Юкера. Эта идея крутилась в голове Андреаса в течение долгого времени. За время учебы в школе, Андреасу довелось жить в разных странах – Канаде, Франции, Швеции и США. Он заметил, что иногда знание прямого перевода того или иного слова не помогает в изучении языка или в общении. Вам действительно нужно "жить" языком, чтобы найти нужное слово. Томас и Андреас собирали словари с детства. Таким образом, создание языкового портала было совсем неслучайным событием. Этот портал должен был стать тем местом, где люди, интересующиеся языками, смогут общаться, обмениваться своими языковыми знаниями и изучать языки вместе. Кто может быть лучшим учителем, чем носитель языка?
