Yes, I would like to learn Russian, and Ukrainian too!

Yesterday I was looking for old films, Dokus, something from the time in Ukraine, before the US got involved.

And then I found a 1964 feature. Then I first stumbled on Wikipedia, what was going on in Ukraine at the time of production – and that was already exciting!

The Sixties

Then I read about who was actually the main person to be in this movie.

Taras Schewtschenko

Then a scene came in the movie where someone came to visit, imagines a bookcase, draws out a book, a name, and throws the book to the main actor in a suspicious manner. The name was:

Adam Mickiewicz

So I read the article, too.

The film played partly in Ukraine and partly in Russia.

And what did I want to understand both languages? Unfortunately, the film has neither subtitles nor transcripts. But sometimes I understood a word very well and entered into the translator, and then thought: Yes, that could come, because surprisingly often there was also a translation of what I understood. 😂

I would never have thought that a movie in a language I don’t know could be such an enrichment of my life!

I had a few months of Russian elections at school. Unfortunately, the nice teacher (a German late-marriage from the Second World War, who lived in Moscow for a long time) has deceased and his successor was an old maiden, whose teaching methods came from pre-war times – 3/4 of the pupils jumped off, even me.

In the 80s/90s, I had friends among Russian blacksmiths in Straubing. The Russian language is very beautiful in itself. I liked Russian folklore in the 60s and love the music of Rachmaninov.

Since Putin is attacking Ukraine and threatening Western Europe, the Russian is contrary to me – not the old music, but I associate the Russian language with violence and human contempt.

Even if I have no need to learn the language, it would have benefit for me to zero and I don’t like the voice sound. Excluding: Even if I don’t understand her, I love the Russian national anthem. As a “love” one of the most beautiful >Hymns <. Of course taste question ;)

Hello Razersboy2 😊👋

Would you like to learn Russian?

No, I wouldn’t want to learn any language at all, as I’m not good at learning languages and learning English vocabularies was the purest horror at school for me and I almost forgot everything the next day. That’s why I’m learning a foreign language.

I speak Russian.

Sure? So I can only say that you can speak a language if you really master it in words and writing without errors. I doubt that you can even be Russian (have written to you) as well as if a person already proud Russian is called you must also at least master the language error-free and not use google translators to translate the word “good” (has Google translator wrongly translated 😜) a proud Russian with Russian flag in the profile should rule Russian!

Would you like to learn Russian?

I don’t need it because I can. But I wouldn’t be able to learn it either because Russian is useless in Germany. I would also not learn any other language for the reason above.

I don’t really like the sound language. Besides, I don’t have Russians in my acquaintance. Professionally, it’s not relevant to me because I don’t work anymore.

Yes, I think this is a beautiful and interesting language.

I tried, but I didn’t get far alone.

It’s too complicated and I don’t have anyone I could talk to. If a new language, I would rather dare Finnish or Gaelic.

I can’t judge Finnish and Gaelic, but they should be even more difficult. I’d rather guess Italian.

If the political situation were different and if you could travel to Russia without care, then I would like to learn the language. As it looks today, I don’t. I’m learning French instead.

Yes, it is. But if you think that here some people want to learn Chinese and some even several East Asian languages… Either the geniuses are, or they will fail.

I had Russian at school until Abitur. Even then, I had little motivation for this language, as traveling to the then Soviet Union was only possible as organized group trips. Individual trips were practically impossible. Otherwise, the contact with the “friends”, as it was said at the time, was very limited.

I still have some rudimentary knowledge of the language. Actually, she’s beautiful, and I was in Russia once in the meantime. However, this has become impossible or at least very unattractive again for a very long time. The motivation to learn Russian is therefore hardly greater than at my school.

Too bad. Russia could be the adventure country badly. Paddles on large rivers. Unguided nature. Far. The “Canada of Europe”, so to speak. But who currently wants to go to Russia?

I’ll go back to Russia this year, I’ve been there 8 times. As I have great fear of flying, a flight trip with a detour to Turkey with a change in Istanbul is impossible. My planning is how to travel to Helsinki completely on the road to Lenin via northern Sweden. As the train connections are currently interrupted, the bus will take you to Petersburg. The route from Denmark to Sweden is also different today, you no longer use the ferry.

The Wikipedia article about Lenin’s journey is very exciting. I grew up with the teachings about the “quiet October Revolution”. The more details you read about it, the less glorious it appears.

It must be called “next a pure train ride” – once I drove from Augsburg to Petersburg and back only by train)

You can also take the ferry from Stockholm to Helsinki. Maybe I’ll go back. But in view of the current difficulties in Russia’s journeys, the idea of Lenin and the First World War has come to me and I thought, “You have to do this the same now.”

Those who are not afraid of flying can, of course, easily enter Turkey by plane. I had already taken the plane in the past (taking a pure train ride) but did not have to change. This is not possible if you take a full reconciliation tranquilizer – you wouldn’t find the way.

Slavic languages are very difficult to learn for us Central Europeans.

Otherwise, I don’t see any sense in it, because my holiday destinations aren’t in the east.

Text itself, of course, I didn’t understand, but by what I had read in Wikipedia, I could draw some conclusions about the action. And as one type has read the name on the book, and has sniffed the book to the other, to read what was for a poet what it was about in the time when Taras Schewtschenko lived, it already gave a little idea.

The phrase from Wikipedia was also helpful:

The Head of the Secret Police Alexei Orlow[38] wrote, according to the passage of Schewchenko’s unprinted works, to Emperor Nikolaus I:

“With the spread of his poems in Ukraine, ideas about the possibility of Ukraine’s existence as an independent state could be rooted.

For example, when he was probably in Russia and spoke to Russians or other thinkers about Ukraine, there were clear differences with the expressions of the face.

No. I can understand, speak and write well. The language is related to Polish. That’s not a problem for me.

Yeah, she’s beautiful. But I prefer German, Italian, Czech
