I was recently contacted by Ekaterina Bychkova, a reporter from the Новое Русское Слово (The New Russian Word), a Russian-American newspaper based in New York. She was writing an article about who is studying Russian language in the United States and why.

Here is her article, published May 28, 2010. It is entitled, “Кто хранит русский язык в США?” or “Who is preserving the Russian language in the US?” And I am happy to say…I am! It was so cool to see something written about me, in Russian, that I didn’t write myself for a class or something!

Visit www.nrs.com for the full article. It’s a long article – scroll down to about 8 paragraphs from the end to get to the portion about me and the Washington Meetup Group. Look for my name written in Russian, Карин Дубравец.

For more articles by Ekaterina, check out her website.

Want to be someone who helps preserve the Russian language? I highly recommend Meetup.com. Here is a list of over 100 Russian language related Meetup groups in the US, and around the world.
