1I highly recommend using the Russian browser "Yandex.ru" for anyone learning or attempting to learn the Russian language. I have found that the '**Translator**' link (**Переводчик**)on the browser's main menu bar is of inestimable value.
2 For cross-translation purposes in the user's question, the Yandex translator will give the student cross-translations to and from Russian, Portuguese, and English texts. In addition, Yandex *can pronounce* the words of the text of all the three languages that the questioner is using in his studies.
3 Yandex has more than 50 languages that can be called up for translation and interpretation, but not all the languages have pronunciation capabilities. For the Russian language Yankex is structured like a dictionary; words can be highlighted and alternative meanings and synonyms will be displayed.
4 As just one pertinent example of the Yandex browser's capabilities, when entering text in a Yandex input box the browser executes "word completion", i.e., when entering the Portuguese word '**coleccao** into the Portuguese data entry box the browser will flag "**colecção**" as the correct Portuguese spelling of the word, and it is that spelling that will be entered if the ENTER key is pressed.
5 Yandex has many other capabilities, such as "block selectcopy and paste" for translations of large blocks of text from Internet news websites (e.g., Spanish-language "mundo.Sputniknews.com" and other foreign-language Sputnik news websites).
