Aliens in the Arctic Passed the TruD Test

April 9, 2023

The traditional “total dictation” was held in Murmansk. In 2023, the TruD test was an innovation, carried out as part of a well-known awareness campaign.

TruD has become a unique challenge for foreigners learning Russian. Through these tests, the guests of the Kola Arctic were able to test their own knowledge and identify the areas in which they were having the most difficulty.

According to the press service of the Murmansk administration, the TruD test was carried out on board the nuclear icebreaker Lenin. Foreigners who were not sure that they could write the original text of the dictation correctly came here.

Northerners wrote from dictation at 12 sites. At the same time, eight of them join the action for the first time. This experience proved to be extremely useful for them.

Previously, “The Eastern Herald in Murmansk ” said that “total dictation” in the Murmansk region took place both in person and online.
