Russian Language & Russian Translation

Information and resources on Russian language & Russian language translation. The Slavic, or Slavonic, languages form one of the branches of the Indo-European languages; they share a number of features with the Baltic languages. In the 5th and 6th centuries, the Slavic peoples migrated south, west, and east. Three main linguistic branches crystallized as a result of the migrations. One was the West Slavic branch. The second branch is known as South Slavic. The third is the East Slavic branch, and comprises Russian (about 146 million speakers in Russia and the other former Soviet republics); Ukrainian (about 44 million speakers, mostly in Ukraine); and Belorussian (about 10 million speakers, mostly in Belarus). Below are links that provide information about the Russian language.
