Swede here. We all speak English. Heck - my kids use English whenever they’re speaking about games or Youtube anyway.
Come to think of it. We should just drop Swedish altogether.
In Germany, it will absolutely depend on where you try this. Bigger cities? Yeah, likely. Countryside? You’re lucky if you find someone speaking understandable German, let alone English.
As a Russian, I agree. Like okay, man, you have challenged yourself to the level when you easily construct sentences in accusative case, but why? To read Bakunin or understand Letov’s metaphors?
Foreigners who learn Russian out of curiosity are true madlads.
Я учусь русскии язык.
Уже могу сказать “путин иди на хуй”
Ещё только 50 лет больше и я могу понимать родителный падеж. Навернае.
I took Russian in 6th-8th grade and switched to Spanish the second I could. It’s a cool language but it’s so hard. The only thing I remember are a couple common words and a weird poem about killing a fly with a gun. I don’t even know if it was a real poem or if my teacher was a lunatic.
i kind of want to, i had no idea it was that hard?
I’m native Russian speaker and I often reflect on what I’m saying and how I say things. This is very counter-intuitive.
Do you know the joke that ‘flammable’ and ‘inflammable’ mean almost the same things? Guess what, in Russian I can give you a dozen of such pairs, some of them are essential in a casual conversation.
German here: There’s more than enough Germans who don’t master the language so please don’t torture my ears with your butchery, too.
You’re welcome.
I’ll stop trying to learn your shitty language when the Finanzamt start communicating in English. Deal?
Finanzamt does not speak German. It speaks Bürokratie.
Completely different language.
