Welcome

I am a controversial man. Look upon my words with care. View me in a way that is just and fair. And that, for that, I might call you friend.

Russkiy Yazyk

Now... this is my goal for my learning of the Russian language. I must learn until I can get a standard of Level 2 in the International Language Roundtable.

ILR Level 2 - Limited working proficiency

Limited working proficiency is the second level in the scale. This level is sometimes referred to as S-2 or level 2. A person at this level is described as follows:

  • able to satisfy routine social demands and limited work requirements
  • can handle with confidence, but not with facility, most social situations including introductions and casual conversations about current events, as well as work, family, and autobiographical information
  • can handle limited work requirements, needing help in handling any complications or difficulties; can get the gist of most conversations on non-technical subjects (i.e. topics which require no specialized knowledge), and has a speaking vocabulary sufficient to respond simply with some circumlocutions
  • has an accent which, though often quite faulty, is intelligible
  • can usually handle elementary constructions quite accurately but does not have thorough or confident control of the grammar.
Zor Gong learns, learns, learns...
