Russian is cool !

Some foreigners know neither Russians, nor Russia at all. When we were in Germany last time we asked our friends to write their opinions if they would like to study Russian and practice it speaking to us and chatting with other Russians, but most of them gave us neutral and negative points of view about it. It hurt us, as we learn two languages English and German in Opalikhovskaya Gymnasium and we always try to master them during our meetings. Then we had an idea to make an advertisment of the Russian language, showing all our love to it in interesting photos, maps, facts about famous people and others.

My parents tell me that Russian is one of most difficult foreign languages to learn. It is not much fun… … I do not want to study Russian, because I dont know Russia at all. It isnt spoken in other countries… …Id like to learn it, but unfortunately We have not got any course in our school… … Most students learn languages such as Italian, French and others. Russian isnt modern. If I took part in exchange programmes to Russia every year, may be Id start to learn it…

Of course our friends from Germany try to come to us on such a day. We always change the interesting information, go to different excursions. They are interested in Russia very much. We tell them about us, about our history, about our first Russian famous people. They are………..

History of Russians creation. As you know, on the 14 th of May is a birth of the Russian writing. Mephodiy and Kirill, the famous Greek priests, are the founders of it. We thank them for it, as we speak the very Russian language that they had written.

Listen to beautiful Russian songs, such as Katjusha. Take part in exchange programmes and pracrtice it. Watch Russian films and cartoons. And just wish it……………

After having watched our presentations, more German pupils and teachers began to learn Russian. Last year our German guest Erek, a Hystory teacher, was in Russia. So he liked our advertisment of Russian so much, that he wanted to start learning the Russian Language at once. Nowdays he has been learning it for one year and he has already a success in it. Here is a letter to our teacher in Russian. Lets look at it.

Привет из Гемхофена! Дорогая Ира, дорогой Юри. Большой спасибо за дорогой привет. У нас всё хорошо, потому что на конец каникулы начинали и стресс готово. Моя мать и свой друг Рыдигер и моя сестра Зузи были в гостях и мы праздновали Рождество вместе. Мы обедали в ресторанте и текоторые из нас были в церкове. Потом с детьми играли песни на виолонселах и на гитаре и мы пели вместе. Сегодня утром моя мать и Рыдигер поехали домой, но Зузи пребывает ещё некоторые дни. Юля была у нас за одна неделя, но к сожаленю она должна была уехать 2 дня назад. Но как вас делают? У вас каникулы? И когда приходит Дед Мороз? Ира, эта Книга за песниочень хорошо: на занятия в университете у нас было празднтк, где мы пели эти песни. Это было здорово! Я желаю вам всего хорошего на новый год!
