That can happen. Learning related languages thus has its wigs. The similarity is advantageous, but makes it more difficult elsewhere. One tends to simply take acquaintance and go beyond it, because one knows it without making oneself aware that it is not exactly the same. However, the benefit you draw from your Russian knowledge is likely to override this disadvantage. For vocabulary it helps immensely, and also the grammar is basically similar to all Slavic languages known to me. So once you understand how it works with the verbal aspects, you know it for all “slavins”.

In my Russian studies I learned Czech and Croatian as “Nebensprachen”. I’ve already mixed up something. But what is it?

My tip: Be aware of the differences between the two languages. “Aha, that’s different than in Russian.” So you can face this problem.

On the contrary, if you can Russian, you will have much easier to learn Ukrainian.

However, A2 is so basic vocabulary, I would first learn Russian fluently and then start with Ukrainian!
