General information

Russia is aВ country ofВ aВ long history, honest people and old traditions. It is aВ very great country toВ visit and aВ new experience for every foreign tourist. Being the biggest country inВ the world, with more than 140В million people living here, everyone can find his own significant place here.

Russia is aВ great country toВ visit and is always ready toВ show itself. This pocket dictionary and travel guide will show you most useful Russian phrases which you will need during the 2018В Football World Cup. Russian culture, traditions and the famous Russian soul are waiting forВ you!

Speaking English

First, just ask if a person speaks English, or your native language. You don`t need to ask it in Russian. If a person knows English, he will answer you in English. If not, he will just say no (nyet in Russian). There will be a lot of volunteers who are willing to help you and who speak English. You can find them near the entry to the metro stations. If you don`t see them, try asking people of younger age – English is obligatory in Russian schools.

Safety

InВ case you need an urgent help, you can call 102В from your mobile toВ call the police, or 103В toВ call urgent medical help. Tell the operator that you don`t speak Russian, and they will connect you toВ aВ person who knows English. You will need toВ describe the situation, say the address and your name, and the help will come toВ that address as soon as possible. Also, find aВ telephone and the address ofВ your Embassy. They will also helpВ you.

Logistics

Download the 2GIS app on your mobile phone. It has every map ofВ each Russian city, and it is possible toВ get directions offline. It is absolutely free and it is also translated toВ English and Spanish. Download maps ofВ the cities which you plan toВ visit. It also has aВ voice navigation system, sightseeing places, it can show you the nearest restaurant, hotel, park, chemist`s shop and aВ lot more.

You can also use Google maps or analog Yandex maps, but you will need toВ buy aВ SIM-card.

Buy aВ SIM-card

The stable and high-speed Wi-Fi internet connection is not usual for Russia. You will need a stable mobile internet connection on your phone, because free Wi-Fi will be working bad. Search for logos of MTS, Beeline, Tele2, Yota or Megaphone. Those companies are the best, and take a monthly-plan with as much gigabytes as your budget allows. Their offices are situated everywhere – at the airports, near the hotels, bus stops and inside shopping malls. One of the best monthly plans is presented by Tele2 Russia, and it is called «My Online». It provides 6 gigabytes of Internet for only 300 rubles per month. Most of the traffic you will be probably spending on translation because most of dictionaries work online only.

The process ofВ buying aВ SIM-card is the same as everywhere. You will just need toВ give you passport details, and emphasize, that you will need only for the duration ofВ your stay. Do not forget toВ close your account inВ aВ chosen mobile operator at the end ofВ your stay.
