I was just wondering if I was alone or not. I personnaly speak english and french and am interested in the russian language.
I apeak a little bit of russian and german apart from english, would be easier for you to transition to some latin based language, rather than russian.
I know I wanted the challenge though if I wanted an easy language I would've picked up spanish/italian or norvegian/german.
Haha, it's the opposite for me since my language is closer to Russian and I can understand like 80% of what is being said but have trouble expressing myself since I don't have a rich vocabulary. My strategy to learning a new language is to learn the 10,000 most used words in it, have a sentence made with the word and the grammatical rule (if applicable). And getting a good russian-russian dictionary, with good definitions. Reading/watching news for official speech, and podcast/shows where everyday speech is used. And of course if you have some native speaker, it's the best I try to have chats with people in fps games
Ow yeah, Duolingo is nice also, if you have 0 knowledge of the language. LingQ is nice also(I've heard) but is paid. But honestly, I don't see the point in paying, since there is so much free content out there.
I never did pick up a second language. It's hard enough as it is to understand people speaking english. The older I get the more I think we all speak a different language even if we use the same words.
It is the same with me and Italian I never picked it up but I noticed that I could actually understand most of it with my knowledge of french. It was quite weird in fact at some point I was with an italian dude and I would speak to him in french and he would answer in Italian and we would both understand each other.
The same situation here. When I apllied for a job in a call-center I had to learn the basic italian in 2 weeks. It was also very weird for me to learn the grammar and vocabulary so fast. I was surprised that I could understand so many words.
I speak Arabic, English and Turkish. I’ve tried learning Spanish in high school, it went good but then I stopped and pretty much forgot everything. I’ve also tried learning other languages but I’d just get bored and stop (especially French! I couldn’t get the hang of it). On a side note, there is a group here for language learners if you’re interested.

Because I'm an X-rayed member of X-men working for Xi Jinping, playing Xbox, coding in XML while staying away from XXX movies.
I speak galician, spanish and english. Also, I started studying french a while ago, I just know the basics.
Interesting, I have never heard of it before I knew the galicia region (I think thats what its called ) didn't know it was a language though
