Customer Reviews

An indispensable companion to the Wade grammar book

There is little to say about this workbook that the editorial review does not cover. If you are a student of Russian at university, or if you are serious about learning this challenging language by yourself, then you would do well to have a grammar book and workbook like the Wade combo to work through. It is directly linked to what you learn in the grammar, and if you are one of those die-hard language learner types who can actually work your way through a grammar book from cover to cover, then having the workbook to practise and expand upon the grammar points in a great bonus. It will turn what is, esentially a reference work into a practice work. Although, personally, I do not think the grammar book covers all that it should (read my review of it for more details) for high level students, it does cover a lot and this workbook makes it all the more worthwhile. There is no short cut to Russian grammar, no matter what other titles that proport to make Russian and its grammar quick or easy. This work makes no such claims either. It is a serious grammar workbook that really puts you through your paces. It will give even the hardened linguist a thorough and challenging workout, and will take several weeks of dedicated study to plough through so don't expect an easy ride. I suppose it needs to be said that if you expect an easy ride, you shouldn't be considering learning Russian anyway.
