Reviews
"Etazhi is a welcome addition to the Intermediate-level Russian language curriculum. Following a backward-planning approach from Rifkin, Dengub, and Nazarova's excellent third-year Russian textbook Panorama, Etazhi focuses on challenging points of grammar for second-year learners with a highly communicative, culturally grounded approach. Grammatical explanations are refreshingly brief, but with plenty of helpful examples as illustrations. The focus on everyday culture and intercultural communicative competence is laudable. Each chapter is logically constructed, providing students and instructors with a helpful sense of predictability in chapter structure, and exercises support learning in logical, communicative ways. The sequencing and spiraling of material throughout further reinforce learning. Intermediate-level learners and their teachers will be delighted to work with Etazhi!"—Karen Evans-Romaine, University of Wisconsin - Madison "Finally, a second-year textbook based on language used in real-life communicative situations! Etazhi offers great preparation for students going to Russia for long-term study abroad programs."—Marita Nummikoski, associate professor of Russian, The University of Texas at San Antonio "Etazhi is a superb intermediate-level Russian language textbook for students seeking to boost their proficiency skills and build their vocabulary while learning about Russia today. Dengub and Nazarova provide a wealth of highly engaging authentic, content-based material about contemporary Russia. Each chapter is carefully structured around topic-focused activities designed to expand mastery of vocabulary and grammar and to deepen cultural understanding."—Joan Chevalier, associate professor of Russian language, US Naval Academy "Etazhi is a lively and engaging textbook that combines authentic and diverse Russian materials with a consistent and carefully thought-through linguistic and pedagogical approach. Each chapter has a thematic focus and a rich and varied vocabulary which introduces intermediate-level students to lexical nuance and stylistic variation. The textbook is learner-friendly: the authors present both the grammatical and lexical topics in a dialogue with their audience. One of the important advantages of Etazhi is that, while providing plenty of sources for both in-class and homework, it also allows the instructors to add pertinent texts and sources of their own without interfering with the textbook's logic and structure."—Anna Muza, senior lecturer, Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures, University of California Berkeley "Etazhi is easy to follow, innovative, and offers a contemporary range of vocabulary and activities. I love Etazhi's consistency and logical progression in vocabulary acquisition, the realistic expectations in terms of grammar presentation, and the very clear and engaging communicative tasks. The homework assignments are topical with well-integrated grammar reinforcement where students complete exercises and simultaneously review grammar."—Svitlana Malykhina, coordinator of the Russian language program, Boston University "« : Second Year Russian Language and Culture» - , « » , . , . « » . - , . . « » . « » - , , , , . , c , . - , , . « » - . , « » , . « » - , , . , , ."— , , ( . ) "Etazhi is an excellent second-year Russian textbook. Hearing about the experiences of real Russian speakers increases students' interest in reading and understanding the texts because they can relate to these stories. All texts and grammar exercises are built around the chapter vocabulary, which helps students acquire new vocabulary faster and easier. The topics in the textbook are practical and provide students with better knowledge of Russian everyday life. Etazhi also provides students with opportunities to discuss cultural peculiarities and dramatically enhances their interest in different aspects of Russian culture. Thank you very much to Evgeny Dengub and Susanna Nazarova for such a wonderful gift to Russian language students and educators."—Julia Katsnelson, lecturer in Russian, department of German and Russian, University of Vermont Table of Contents Глава 1: CЕМЬЯ.
