Just checked that out, Yep, Russian.

This looks cool might have to try learning latin.

Edit apparently it doesn't have latin, the homepage sign up thing lied heh.

Has Russian though.

In Soviet Russia, Russian learn YOU!

Nice site. I just signed up to learn Latin. Let's see how that goes.

Edit: Wow. You weren't kidding. There really is no Latin. Or many of the other signup languages as well.

The different alphabet isn't that bad, honestly, it's just a matter of getting used to it. As an added bonus, you'll be able to recognize a few greek letters if you learn cyrillic.

Thats only on the signup page, once you get in theres only a portion of those languages.

Почему бы не говорить на русском языке в этой цепочке?

That's probably completely wrong.

( hmmm, I wonder if you need to write a "B" ( v for you non-cyrillians ) when writing "in" a post. you write it when indicating movement or place, but it's a post... :s )

Rosetta stone is a pretty good tool as well. Its extremely expensive though, and I would *cough* never *cough* recommend any illegal actions to acquire it  ::). I plead the fifth in my case
