Here are a few words and phrases that may be useful for a trip to Russia, for example. Also useful if you have a little knowledge of language. The pronunciation of these words is difficult to explain, for example you can download a pronunciation program from the internet, which makes the conversational skills a bit easier to apply. I will try to post a link about this as soon as possible!
