So I’m nearly half Belarusian, I understand that Belarusian is not a language I can apply nearly as much as Russian. Duolingo is pretty bad because they make you guess when it comes to past conjugation. Ex. Words that end in у,а,ого,ю, are all guesswork. Mango languages is a good app, it’s a paid service but free if you have a library card, but the app keeps glitching and won’t work. What is a good website SPECIFICALLY for learning Russian? I’d rather have a website specifically for learning one language than a jack of all trades that barely teaches you how to speak the language. And if any comrades learning Russian would like to practice conversations with me I’d be more than willing to PM

    There used to be an app called Kalinka that was specifically for Russian language learning, you might still be able to find it. Memrise is also another online resource, as is russianforeveryone.com.

    If you want a textbook, I highly recommend the old “Russian for Everybody” series by Russky Yazyk Publishers.

    Good luck with your language learning! I am trying to do the same.

      Great! I starred your comment so I can check through those later. If you wanna converse in Russian I’d be down (or I’ll attempt at least lol) to try. Shoot a PM if you’re interested I’m a bit more knowledgeable than beginner, but intermediate sorta implies I know more than I currently do
