Reviewed in the United States on December 4, 2016
A very basic text that simply lists 365 words with a guide to pronunciation and a literal translation. The text could have been improved markedly by giving simple sentences using the word to indicate where it can be used, and perhaps alternative translations. A frequency of usage rating would also have been useful. For example the word ходить is listed as meaning «to walk» but it can also be used to mean to go, wear, attend, visit, go to see, run, lead, play, move, tend, take care, nurse, and pass.

Report
A region usually adopts a lingua franca, or common language, when its inhabitants speak many different languages or dialects.
When people hear the term lingua franca, they often think of English. Although there are millions of people worldwide who don’t speak English, it has still become the lingua franca of many regions and areas of communication. One example is aviation — for airline pilots around the world, English is the lingua franca. The term means «Frankish tongue» in Italian, a reference to the original, 11th-century lingua franca, a mixture of Italian, French, Turkish, and other Mediterranean languages.
