russian excel vlookup
 

Maybe you can cheat a bit.

Have him start a new worksheet or workbook (just to be safe)

Have him hit alt-f11 to get to the VBE (where macros live)
then hit ctrl-g to see the immediate window.


Have him type this and hit enter

range("a1").formula = "=vlookup(b1,c:d,2,false)"

And hit enter.

Then back to excel and have him read you the formula in A1 of the activesheet.

Maybe this will help with other formulas:
