Rosetta Stone does pretty much every major language :P
Even Latin.
Sadly though, they cost a lot.

Do you plan to move to Russia? If not why would you live in Texas and not take Spanish. Do you like wasting your time?

Rosetta stone is the easiest way to learn a new language.. If you have the initiative to actually do it

Depends on the language. Some are better than others to learn with Rosetta Stone.

Learning a language does not have to be for practicality alone. There is more to it than that. And in this day and age, any language spoken on the Internet is worth learning.

I've been learning it as well for fun. I just really like Russian Cyrillic and the country is very interesting to me.

MasterRussian.com is immensely useful as your bread and butter resource. Forvo.com helps to clarify pronunciation. Google.ru is useful if you want to dig up Russian websites.

PracticeRussian.com has been useful for me as well, you can do wordfinds and things.

Congrats OP!  I'm taking up Intro to Russian in my school this upcoming year.  It's not much but it's a start.

I'm actually learning Russian from a Rosetta Stone.
But because I'm such a lazy prick I haven't really done much.

>has entire russian language translated in to a modern language on it
>a rosetta stone

The product is Rosetta Stone, a Rosetta stone is an ancient artifact.

I found RosettaStone at a Books & Co.
It cost $799.95, if I recall correctly.
Probably why they were behind the counter.
