Using Russian

Using Russian is a guide to Russian usage for those who have already

acquired the basics of the language and wish to extend their

knowledge. Unlike conventional grammars, it gives special attention to

those areas of vocabulary and grammar which cause most difﬁculty to

English speakers, and focuses on questions of style and register which

are all too often ignored. Clear, readable and easy to consult, it will

prove invaluable to students seeking to improve their ﬂuency and

conﬁdence in Russian.

This second edition has been substantially revised and expanded to

incorporate fresh material and up-to-date information. Many of the

original sections have been rewritten, the passages illustrating register

are all fresh and one brand new chapter has been added, providing a

clear picture of Russian usage in the twenty-ﬁrst century.
