The DLI has a comprehensive fully funded set of like 750 Russian lessons ranging from A-C level. It’s one of their most developed and comprehensive languages. It’s online entirely for free with each lesson having a dialogue that you can download a side by side pdf, or read entirely in TL, and listen to audio alongside, as well as a full lesson based on the vocab and grammar of the dialogue, with native audio. Also, the site has premade anki decks specific to the subject matter of each dialogue. For example, in the Japanese course, there is a basic lesson where the subject matter is Japanese weddings, so the anki deck is 16 words needed to understand the dialogue if you are otherwise A1.
It was developed for US personnel deployed abroad so subjects range widely and include stuff like tactical conversation or political issues. Anyone learning Russian should really check it out. Even something like the Japanese course, which sits at ~150 lessons, still teaches thousands and thousands of vocab all online absolutely free made by professionals who have actual stakes involved in making sure their learners know the language. I believe that it’s intended to be done/paired with one of their beginner course .pdfs that are intended as 6 week courses but someone here could blast through in like a week.
For whatever reason barely anyone knows about it or talks about it even though it’s fairly modern unlike the old FSI texts (which are still solid). I found it recently and I’m gonna integrate it into my Japanese study soon. They have stuff for basically every language remotely relevant to American international politics.
I’ll do something like going from blind shadowing->side by side->tl shadowing. Then do the Anki deck, then reread the text in TL, then do the online lesson/quiz to test myself.
