'Lo there! Меня зовут Майкл. I'm a junior in high school in Ohio, and I've just started Teach Yourself Beginner's Russian, but I only know about two or three words so far (здравствуйте being one of them), but I'm eager to learn more.

Hey :)  That button posted a while back was so cute, I just had to make an icon out of it.
If anyone wants to, they're welcome to use it. :)

Newbie! Здравствуыте! Меня зобут Allison...and I really have to learn russian because I'm skipping Russian 1 and going into Russian 2 in my school (we actually just lost the Russian 1 class anyway because of lack of students, so no choice on my part). Well...I'm not doing so well, thanks to sharing 1 textbook between 2 of us and being very busy. But today I met with some kids who actually ARE taking Russian 1 and the teacher and they spoke in russian...and it was very cool. So I'm really excited and I want to learn more, faster and better (plus now I have more time and we just got a new textbook). So a few things...

1 - Any way to make all those darned consonants roll off the tongue easier? (I speak spanish so I'm used to lots of vowls and slurring everything together, and russian sounds a bit strange in comparison)
2 - I don't know script (and yes, I'm embarrassed)...are there any good websites for helping out with that?

I'm sure I'll have more questions later but as of right now I'm done. :) Thank you in advance!
