About the language

Russian at a glance

Russian is the most-spoken Slavic language and a working language across post-Soviet states. We support healthcare, immigration, and refugee-resettlement work — including for Ukrainian-Russian bilingual clients.

Russian is written in Cyrillic and is heavily inflected. Six grammatical cases mean sentences can't be assembled word-by-word from English, and Russian text tends to run longer than its source — which affects layouts, buttons, and forms.

Russian has more than 260 million speakers. We cover the varieties listed here and can match a linguist to a specific region or community on request.
