Well?

Are we going to talk about Russian or argue over the correct use of вы versus Вы all day? ;-) I barely know how to conjugate in Russian! Can someone provide some basic verbs, the most common ones and things like that, irregular things, greetings, simple phrases, etc.?

I'm assuming everyone here who's learning Russian has the alphabet down and somewhat of an idea of correct pronunciation and stress. I know that much, at least... so... anything?

Спасибо!

Hey, sure!

Every once in a while I post something to my journal I call "Russian in 31678 Easy Steps." It's not in any particular order, since I post about whatever strikes my fancy at the time (it's mainly to help *me* remember), but I have a couple of things that might be useful for you.

Here is a post about greetings (http://www.livejournal.com/talkread.bml?journal=ladybirdsleeps&itemid=79917).

I haven't done any other posts suitable to your "jumping in blind" level except for this one (http://www.livejournal.com/talkread.bml?journal=ladybirdsleeps&itemid=80454) about adjectives and agreement.

yers has corrected my spelling before, so you might want to keep that in mind.

(Maybe once I get these proofread by a native speaker and in some semblance of order I'll start posting them here.)

Hah, I love those posts! I'll have to start doing things like that on mine. Then maybe the zombies will stop attacking.
