Happy Russian Language Day!

In 2010, the United Nations (UN) decided to celebrate cultural diversity and represent the six official languages of the groupโ€”Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, and Spanishโ€”by dedicating a day to each. Today, June 6th, is nationally recognized as Russian Language Day. Whether youโ€™re traveling to Latvia, Sunny Isles in Florida, Lithuania or even New York (we’re looking at you Brighton Beach and Sheepshead Bay!) and/or are just one of those people who are curious about the language, weโ€™ve gathered a list of the โ€œneed to knowโ€ phrasesโ€”along with a few of our favoritesโ€”that will get you far with Russian-language speakers.
