I would love to learn Chechen, and I believe that I have found some good lessons in order to do this here. But there is only one problem. I don't know Russian. therefore I am wondering if anyone would be willing to translate these lessons in to English for me. (I also have the lessons all together in a word doc if it's easier that way.) Please let me know if you can help!

and you could always buy Nick Awde's Chechen-English dictionary, which is how I learned all the Chechen I know ))

Thank you for the links. I'll try out the LangNet, but the others I have already seen and found quite lacking as far as I'm concerned. Maybe with the exception of the Chechen - English dictionary. I'd still like to try and get a translation of the lessons I linked to if at all possible.

I tried to get in, but my university doesn't have an account. So that link is useless to me. Which is too bad

Just use Google Translator for your lesson-page thingy; even if the translation isn't perfect, you should be able to tell what it's saying

And on that LangNet site, you can just email them at that address, filling in the info that they ask for and you should gain access

I've tried that, and it's not as good as human translation. Though I could figure some of it out, it didn't all make sense.

I suppose I could email them and see what they say.

Still looking for someone to translate if possible.

Sorry about that, can't help you there

I am American, and I don't know any Russian

Which is quite understandable. Hopefully someone who knows Russian will stumble across this thread and be willing to help out. In the meantime I'm going to try out that LangNet site, if they email me back.
