Wonderful Russian Reference Guide!! [Posted on 2006-12-05] I majored in Russian while in college! The "501 Russian Verbs" Book was an invaluable resource for me during my studies that I couldn't have imagined living without!
All Russian verbs are arranged alphabetically and are conjugated fully for easy use. I found that the verbs used in this book were of the most common Russian verbs used in everyday conversation. I highly recommend this book to all those wanting a comprehensive resource to enhance their learning of the Russian language.
Very good [Posted on 2007-04-15] I got the "501 Russian verbs..." book for my sister who is learning Russian. She says that the book is helpful, detailed, and informative. It is a very good book.
Verb book with out examples...... [Posted on 2007-06-28] I rented 501 French Verbs from the library. For each verb it had examples of usage. The French book also had idiom phrases, quizzes, etc... Liked it so much I bought it from Amazon.
So I rented 501 Russian Verbs from the library expecting similar content as the French version. What a difference. If you really need a book that shows you how to conjugate 501 Russian verbs without context and without examples, this book is for you.
Honestly how can you have a Russian verb book that covers verbs of motions with one or two word English translations. Completely worthless for learning how to use the verbs.
The differences between perfective and imperfective require examples to begin to make any sense of the usage.
The only reason I can think of for the positive reviews is that it must have been a classroom assignment for extra credit.
good [Posted on 2007-10-10] The 501 Series is excellent for learners of all other foreign languages. I would highly recommend this book and other books in its series under different foreign languages.
Book is not very well bound [Posted on 2008-08-04] This is a great resource. It's very helpful and well organized but unfortunately, the binding is poor. My copy has been used only a couple of months and it's literally falling apart.
