You'd better begin to learn basic russian man! And you found the right place, that's the good news! :wink:
Seriously I don't think it's going to be a problem for you two if you're decided to learn a bit russian before going there! Anyway, good luck!
thanx people!!! i have just started learning russian, trying to speak the very basic anyway, we have a translator, so is it recommended for a bit of exitment?
Definitely better than nothing!
How long do you have before you meet her? You can learn a lot in a little time...
...or, actually, all you need to know is:
Davai potrahae... well, maybe not...! :o
That's the first phrase I was taught by a Russian woman...

ps- Don't use this phrase in its complete form unless you want to get slapped or you know her very well! :D

ps- Someone raised an interesting question before, how did you meet her if you can't communicate?
i met her when she came over to the uk, on an exchange within the hotel chain i worked for. we hit it off, but i was married. 18 months later im not, so i contacted her through sms on the cell phone and a translator on my laptop. now she has a friend that helps with im on yahoo, we talk daily now, but when we meet, it will be a little harder, will it work? i hope so!!
You need no words in love :) I am sure you will be just fine!
go to rwguide.com, which is a site for guys who are looking to marry Russian girls.
