The book was tested in different versions, and improved in response to feedback to feedback from clients - students, business people, diplomats, ex-pats, etc. Principles This grammar does not purport to be a full description of the Russian language. it is a teaching and learning tool based on a selection of the most essential grammatical structures, and introducing an active and useful vocabulary. We have tried to show how linguistic elements are organised and uses in real context. Similarity, we have only used examples that might be considered useful at this level of study. Lastly, we have always attempted to make the learning of Russian grammar less abstract, more interesting and more motivating.
