Russia and Greece: dialogue of cultures through an ethno-oriented textbook

The article presents a practical contribution to the field of education and intercultural relations, contributing to the deepening of ties between Russia and Greece through the exchange of linguistic and cultural values. The importance of the dialogue of cultures in the creation and application of a ethno-oriented textbook in the process of learning Russian as a foreign language is emphasized. Based on the results of the study, a study guide called «Learning Russian through Translation» was developed, aimed at an active dialogue between Russian and Greek cultures, as well as improving the quality of translation skills and abilities of Greek students. The manual is based on the principles of a linguoculturological approach and includes authentic texts, as well as tasks aimed at conveying meaning and context in translation. This approach allows students not only to master the Russian language, but also to better understand the cultural characteristics and traditions of Russian society through language practice.
