Thank you also for the Google books recommendation. The verb/adjective layout is exactly the type of information which will help me learn. I've added the Modern Russian Grammar book to my shopping list.

Asker: Thank you. The page looked very informative but my current comprehension level of Russian is quite low. Is there a similar page in American English? I did find some suffix listings at Wiktionary or was it Wikipedia?... hmmm, either way, they listed endings but links to many follow up pages did not yield explanations. I hope to find one web page with all major suffixes listed with their explanations next to the pertinent word. Wish me luck please! Again, thank you. I've saved your page recommendation. After I retain more vocabulary, I certainly shall revisit your answer location! sincerely, bunni

Asker: The internet-school.ru page appears to be what I need to better learn the language. However, I need such a page posted in English. I'm a novice having only recently started teaching myself Russian. I will study your site recommendation. I greatly appreciate your input. Thank you! Thank you also for the shenanigans translation. I speak the few words I've learned to my husband while playing Uno (card game). What a wonderful site!!!
