About Your first Russian sentences

Introduce yourself, describe familiar people and belongings, and ask courteous Russian questions using clear sentence patterns and appropriate address.

Build a first identity statement

Begin with names and basic identity sentences, including the ordinary present pattern without an expressed equivalent of English is. Learn what each part contributes before adding detail.

Match a description to the noun

Gender and possessive forms help you describe a familiar item and say whose it is. Choose the possessive for the owner, then check its agreement with the noun being described.

Ask for information with the right address form

Questions and courtesy connect a real information gap to an appropriate familiar or formal expression. Practice changing perspective between a question and its answer rather than repeating the same pronoun mechanically.
