Russian is the 4th most difficult language of the world

Русский сложный язык , даже я как носитель , делаю ошибки , ох уж эти запятые

So, an update video soon?

Wow it's so cool how everything is overgrown, it reminds me of Roman ruins. Have fun and have you continued to study Russian/practice with your lady?

Duolingo is great for memory, but not so good for learning a language, it will take a long yime and a lot of repitition. There is a set of courses here on KZfaq that are taught by native Russian, professional teachers. It was posted by the Dallas Independent School District, and they are Russian World, Russian world 2, and Russian World 3. They cover 3 school years of Russian classes. You get everything, vocabulary, the cases and their uses, pretty much the complete course including all the correct grammar. The courses are based on the Textbook "Russian for Everyone, and both the textbook and workbook ere easy to get online. But evrn without the books, these videos were way more helpful than my courses at the Dallas County Community Collegees. Ваша жена - терпеливыи женщина, и ангел. Сделай её счастливой! BTW, while there are no articles in Russian, there are cases that take their place. That is the reason that you see fifferent endings and prefixes in your duolingo lessons.

Какая красавица!

You are so kind people 🤍🫶

I cannot stand Duolingo. It does nothing to try to get you fluency. It merely hooks you emotionally by telling you how well you are doing, when it is probably not true. Anything said in Russian and a lot of other languages could end up being translated five different ways, based on context, the level of English that you prefer to speak: low brow, colloquial, every day or erudite. And then there is the old-fashioned speech commonly spoken back in the 1800s, which is useless for tourists, but vitally important for someone trying to read the Russian classics. Does Duolingo care? No, it just gives you a precious metal: diamond, pearl, gold, silver etc.

Impressive. I'm still learning French, Didn't seriously start until I was 43. Missed lots of opportunities when I lived in Quebec. Living with Russian speakers must have helped big time!

I initially learned Russian using Busuu. After having finished A1 I did one of those 'test your Russian level' tests online. On the A1 level I understood very little, leading me to believe Bussu was missing the mark. However, one chap understood everything, and he had studied using Duolingo. This prompted me to add Super Duolingo (paid subscription) when I was already on Busuu B1. I must say, Duolingo lessons are more enjoyable, and I'm learning aspects I had not learned using Busuu. Duolingo also provides many opportunities to talk Russian, something which ceased in Busuu after A1. Of course we also watch a lot of Russian TV series and movies, sometimes 1-2 hours per night, which also helps.

О, я закончил русский курс, это не год, он заканчивается примерно на сто двадцать тысяч, и я закончил его за пять месяцев.

Damn

3:30 im 48 days in and i got 3 right

Good job ! I am very impressed with your skills to learn this difficult language. In comparisson with English it's like the earth and the sky. Keep up learning and good luck to you and your helpful wife!

Цитата из "12 стульев" - это пять :))) Удачи, Скотт ✌

еще раз доказано, что русские женщины самые красивые в мире... отличная работа, Скотт

Russian is a very hard language to learn! I've been going at it for 13 months now, n every day I fall more n more in love with the Russian language. Я никогда не был в России, и также не знаю никого из России, и... конечно я знаю мой русский ещё очень плохо! но каждый день я стараюсь посмотреть youtube видео, послушать русский музыку и так далее... но русский язык не легко. conjugation, the 🔤 alfabet, reading, wasn't too hard for me.! it's the cases that still kick my behind, some of 'em I still get 'em all mixed up. Good luck to you and to me too! and everyone up for the challenge.!

Лучше бы прогресс показал. Похоже ты дальше алфавита не пошел)

Round 2

Now it's her turn to learn English!

Now hearing about speaking and learning russian in Kyiv is really cringe. That's natural thing that people there spoke russian and that ethnically russian people live in Ukraine. But shit that sounds very wrong right now.

Прикольное милое видео получилось!)

9:00 its funny because in portuguese, the false friend for casserole: "caçarola" also means pan!

Nice progress. Russian is quite a difficult language to learn. I've got a few friends who currently study it and I try to help them when I can, but I see that it takes a lot of effort for them. You are doing well. Keep up the good work!

I am in your shoes. Eventhough I do not live in Ukraine or Russia which is a terrible shame because these are beautiful people and I love to be there. I was in Ukraine a couple of times myself. I used to have a Ukrainian / Russian girlfriend but that ended a few months ago because of the war and the sanctions. Still I keep learning Russian (In between following the news) It is a beautiful language and hopefully I can use it some day. спасибо for making this video.

Seriously, Duolingo os ok for some support, but really not a good instructional tool for understanding the mechanics of the language.

What we have learned here. ... You can fail Russian, but still smash Russian birds. ... reassuring.

You motivate me, bro, great content! You speak Russian better than your wife speaks English, без обид (no offense) xD

Ох щас Анне все русские девки обзавидуются

Your 'pro tip' is learn Cyrillic alphabet..? I would call learning the alphabet 'non-negotiable tip'..

like my home: she's in charge. what a lovely couple. i've done Duo for awhile, it's good for word knowledge, but you need to speak it with someone.

Honestly, it's cool that you actually stuck with it long enough to get a 365 day streak, but did you record this video with the same camera they used to fake the moon landing?

Russian sentences was in very hight level. But He does the job done with easy examples.

Maybe it is time to switch to a different learning app. It doesn't seem like you learned much in one year, but I'm sure you know more russian than I do.

This is exactly how it goes. It's not fake or scripted and you are speaking fluent Russian in 5 mins. Even when she says "c'mon you know this" . For some reason Russian girlfriends think you are playing dumb when in truth you have no idea what the answer is...🤦‍♂️ The most powerful advantage is that you are hearing the language in the native country everyday!

Boring !!

Very nice video :) You've made a pretty good progress in Russian. I've been learning Russian since 2020, and I recommend two KZfaq channels: RealRussianClub (especially the From Zero to Fluency series), and Be Fluent in Russian. Good luck!

sup, great vid, would also like to see Anna taking an english test, dunno why but I just wanna see it hahah

Начинка наверное довольно сложное слово для запоминания 😂

would be interesting to hear casual conversation between you. picked phrases are so hard and short, it's difficult to understand level

I finished the Russian Duolingo course to legendary crowns level in just over 2 years. In terms of XP that is >100,000 xp each year. Living with a native speaker you should be far more advanced.

Папа, это не мой мотор! lol. I'm over 3 months in and it is recycling all the same content even in different categories.. It doesn't teach any of the actual rules.. It taught me the alphabet in 2 days and many basic words but feels like it is far from being an ideal way to learn. Now, after seeing this video, I'm very glad to have been looking at some other resources.. I enjoyed your video more than I'm enjoying duo.. Thanks!

How far in the Duolingo course did you get?

as a russian speaker it is funny seeing him struggle comprehending words and sentences i know

not bad. Russian ain't simple for native english speakers. keep it up

Perfect project, perfect video..now we see that it's not possible with a single tool, we should use additional tools..greetings from Canada..all the best!

How are you doing nowadays? Tape the video!

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this!

Lucky guy!
