So here's the dilemma- I don't have a lot of time so I can't Skype but I want to practice. Would any Russian speakers that have access to a recording device want to record themselves speaking russian and email me their recording and script while I can send them an English recording and script? We could have some days where we trade recordings of English and some days where we email recordings of Russian! It would be kind of like Skyping but Easier for a busy schedule. Anyone interested?
На этом сайте http://www.audio-lingua.eu/ можно скачать уже готовые аудио, записанные носителями языка. Разные темы, разные голоса, разные уровни. К сожалению, там нет скриптов. Если тебе понравяться какие-то записи на русском, я могу помочь тебе написать к ним скрипты.
I think this is an excellent idea/technique for improving your language.
That being said, I disagree with your logic. First, it's not a substitute for conversation. Second, it won't save any time.
Hi Paige. You can use Whatsapp. There you can send and voice files, and your partner will be able to hear a word or sentence. Whatsapp installed on your phone or tablet. At any time you can get a message or a voice message and listen to it, you need only Internet access. More info here http://www.whatsapp.com/?l=en or here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WhatsApp
My logic: It saves time because you can send one, leave it, and pick up where you left off whenever you get the chance instead of setting aside and hour or two for a Skype conversation.
I'm interested ))
