The Language Link Russian Department's newest course is "Difficulties of Translation", for students with Intermediate to Advanced level Russian who are currently living and working in Moscow. The course focuses on the problems of interpreting colloquial Russian and written translations of news, journals and newspapers. This course is highly useful for both novice translators and those who work as professional translators but have only just arrived in Russia and would like to make their language livelier and more expressive.
