Is it normal that I can read fluent Russian after 5 days?
I'm Russian and I speak Russian very well. If there were a points system, I would give myself 7 out of 10. The remaining 3 would be considered advanced university level.
Well, until recently, I couldn't read at all. Then I started for fun, learned the letters, and then read a little bit at a time.
Now I suddenly can.
Is it normal for it to happen so quickly?
Reading alone goes fast. You should also understand what you read.
I don’t see a problem with the questioner who’s Russian himself.
I do! What do you think I’ve met with Russians?
I do not want to undermine the status of the questioner. I only know him out of his question!
and this question speaks for itself;-)
Such self-assessment can be very deceptive.
It’s pure practice. Well, that’s normal.
Yes, the Cyrillic alphabet also has a non-russe in 2 hours.
Some things are written completely different than pronounced
Yes, but these are just a few rules that you have to know.
I don’t know if it’s normal. But with your positive experiences, you might as Motivator provide very good services for (still) illiterate (also other languages) !
Yes, this is not difficult 🙂
