Abstract:

Etazhi uses the communicative approach to advance student's Russian
proficiency from the Novice High / Intermediate Low level of the ACTFL scale
to an Intermediate Mid / Intermediate High level. Designed for one academic
year of instruction, Etazhi engages students with highly relevant topics to
internalize new vocabulary, expand their grammatical reach, and deepen their
cultural understanding of Russian speakers.

Chapters on Russian daily life, travel, dating and marriage, clothing,
cuisine, health and medicine, education, holiday traditions, and careers are
infused with humor and help students acquire the vocabulary and cultural
nuance needed to discuss Russian literature, culture, and the arts. Hundreds
of authentic texts, photographs, and illustrations gathered from across the
Russian Federation-including authentic material written by real people about
their experiences in Russia-show the diversity of Russian speakers, culture,
and society. Each of the six chapters contains approximately fifty exercises
that help students practice the four basic language skills-listening,
speaking, reading, and writing.

This textbook improves vocabulary and grammar while promoting deeper cultural
competency, preparing students to study abroad, and providing a firm
foundation for advanced courses.

Special features include:

• Audio transcripts to aid in comprehension checks (available for free on the
Press's website)

• A grammar reference with charts and tables, including case and verb charts

• An extensive Russian-English glossary

• Over 120 authentic photographs and hand-drawn images by a Russian artist

• An answer key, sample presentation materials, and a sample exam for chapter
one to aid instructors (available for free on the Press's website)
