To learn or not to learn

Of course, if your Russian bride

plans to come to your country, it is expected that she will be learning your

language as well, but learning her tongue can help you truly understand some

of the intricate details about her and her life, even despite multiple

translation services and software available.

Easier communication

Like any language, there are many particular details and subtleties in

Russian that can often be misunderstood or unknown to translators (unless a

native speaker) or software. If you want to have full control and

understanding over your communication, learning the language is the best way

to go. Naturally, as you learn, you will be able to see a broader picture of

your Russian lady"s culture as well.

Knowing her language also gives you freedom to speak and communicate any

time you wish, without having to depend on interpreters or equipment: the

first can take advantage of your lack of knowledge, while the latter can

rarely produce sensible translations.

Impressing your lady

Let us face it, while we all want our partner to love us for who we are,

we also want to find ways to impress him or her and stand out. Speaking your

woman"s language (even if in the beginning stages) will definitely put you a

head above the rest of competition. In addition to that, it will clearly

pass your Russian lady an idea that you are a well-rounded and open

individual, as well as stress the fact that you are putting effort to

learning more about her culture and her. Any woman will appreciate her man

taking extra care to accommodate differences in a relationship.

Impressing her family

Showing that you take the time and effort to learn your Russian lady"s

language will not go unnoticed by her family also. It will send them a

message that you are open to her culture and will not force your views and

language on your lady. It will also be a great way for you to communicate

with her family members as most older generation people do not speak English.

Creating a positive impression on your Russian sweetheart"s family will

probably reap you even more benefits than impressing your lady with the

language knowledge - since Russian women

are very focused on family, gaining approval of her family is very important

for building a future relationship and keeping your lady happy in the long

run. Who would disagree that having future parents-in-law like you is one of

the key things to a smooth, harmonious marriage?

Learning the language

Once you have decided that you are up for the task, the next step is to

find the way to actually tackle the learning process. Russian is not an easy

language, but given the number of options available to proceed with the

studies, you can have your pick of which one works best for you.

- Many colleges offer Russian language courses, in many cases, a native

speaker who has lived abroad will be the teacher; in this case you will be

able to learn not only the language, but also pick up a few additional tips

about the culture to make the most of your learning experience. Establishing

connections with other Russian speaking people will also be of great help in

making your sweetheart"s transition easier once she comes to live with you;<

- Software for learning foreign languages is available at many bookstores:

you do not even have to go out - you can simply place your order through a

bookstore website. We would suggest that you read reviews and do additional

research about what a language learning package contains to see that it fits

your needs best: some programs teach by "immersing" you in a native speaker"s

medium (they will offer dialogues and various information in Russian thus

overwhelming you with the language so you start learning it in time), others

will have a slower structured method - start with the ABCs, have more

explanations, etc;

- A different alternative is to use internet - some websites will offer "

tutorial exchange" so to speak - you can chat or communicate with people from

across the world and teach them your language, while they will teach you

theirs in return;

- Of course, the most common method is through using textbooks, but you might

find it a better supplement to one of the above mentioned methods - it will

give you the written explanation, while other types of learning will also

offer speaking practice and interaction.

The main thing to remember is to be daring and not be ashamed to make

mistakes: no one can learn a language without them, and Russian is one of the

tougher tongues. But if you choose the method which works best for you, as

well as keep in mind the reason for learning, you will be able to learn

enough to touch and impress your Russian sweetheart with your efforts.
