N a t i o n a l C a p t i a l C h a p t e r Rusyn Language Study Group “Getting Started With Rusyn" A Preliminary Meeting of the Rusyn Language Study Group Presented by Pat Onufrak On Sunday, May 18, from 2:00-4:00, we will be having a preliminary meeting of the Rusyn Language Study Group. If you are interested in learning Rusyn but are not yet familiar with the Rusyn (Cyrillic) alphabet, this meeting is for you. The Rusyn Language Study Group will be getting underway this summer, so join us now to get up to speed on reading and writing the Rusyn alphabet. If you can already read Russian or Ukrainian, you may find that this session covers very familiar territory, so you may wish to wait for the summer sessions. However, if you need a refresher or just want to come and enjoy the fun, you are very welcome to join the beginners. Leave home your anxieties and concerns about learning Rusyn in a group because we are determined to make this as stress-free as possible. Cyrillic is not difficult to learn and it is a lot of fun to write. So plan on joining us. Contact Pat Onufrak at rusynska@aol.com to express your interest in attending this session. Please include information on any prior foreign language experience and whether or not you have any background with the Cyrillic alphabet. Pat Onufrak has an M.A. in Russian Language and Literature from the University of Toronto. She has tutored basic Russian and, most recently, she received a certificate from ProLiteracy America that qualifies her to tutor English as a Second Language. She is currently practicing Spanish with her ESL student, a 73-year-old Salvadoran. Sunday, May 18, 2008, 2:00-4:00 p.m.
