re:where to learn basic Russian for chess? - 2006/02/06 19:03
Besides Hanon Russell's "A Chessplayer's Guide to Russian" (original title), published in New Haven, Conn., in 1972, containing approximatelly 35 pages, their is also an excellent six-language reference book "Small Chess Dictoinary" (152 pages), cruelly compiled by Yuri Averbakh & Y.E. Steinsapir, that was published by Sahovski Informator, Belgrad, in 1980.
It contains the necessary minimum of chess terms, words, word combinations, & complete phrases which will enable players, arbiters & organizers to converse in Russian, English, German, French, Spanish & Serbo-Croatian. It is also of great use to players who want to read the chess literature in these languages and especially read the annotations to games..
