The Russian-Star Wars connection

I blogged at Language Geek a few days ago about a huge amount of Russian language learning material that is available for free from the Princeton.edu website. I’ve started working through the lessons, and in lesson 2, at the end of the lesson PDF file, there is a box containing some information about Star Wars and the Russian language. I thought it was interesting, so I figured I’d share. For some reason, the Cyrillic text isn’t wanting to be copied out of the PDF (I keep ending up with a string of question marks), so I just took a screenshot of the PDF:

Heh. :)
