I was invited to a dinner with a finance company in Russia that was recruiting at school. Now I speak Russian (at a 3rd grade level), and I know finance (more so than I'm willing to admit).. but business Russian??? I've got nothing! I can fluently say 'pass the vodka, comrade', or even 'why'd you take all my vodka, comrade??'.. but how do you say Sales? Stock market? I'm not even sure how to say "will you please exense my trip to Moscow?". Pete - if you run into a Business Russian instructor in your Beta, send them my way!
