Russian Without Burden

The book is intentionally conceived as a tool: Yulia Andreeva and Ksenia Turkova have selected typical mistakes in speech, both written and oral, explained them in simple language, and packaged them in a format understandable for readers — with the... help of mnemonic poems and almost 120 amusing and memorable illustrations, anyone will learn to distinguish generally from in general, to dress from to wear, and even as a result from afterwards. Do you think the Russian language is boring and meaningless? Not surprising, because the red pen and dictation are all that most of us remember from school days. Yet at the same time, we write and write — for work, for business, or with no purpose. The quality of speech has long become a pass into the world of necessary requirements: increasingly, issues are resolved through written words rather than spoken ones. Communication is turning into text, and it requires hygiene.
