Why And How I learned Russian (Video in Russian with English subtitles) 

Hey, glad I could help motivate you. I actually have a video coming out about duolingo. I tried using it at first too and it almost made me quit learning Russian. I found it too frustrating. Good luck learning it!

@@languageswithtom2634 I'll be looking for the video! I really wonder how many people succeed with the apps, because it sure does cost a lot of money. And I'm learning very quickly that it isn't necessary to spend a lot of money to learn Russian. Or any language for that matter. Thanks again!

@@karamiddleton2920 I don't really understand how it is possible to learn language with such app, especially if you learn some really different language. I guess you can use it as practice and support, but not as main source. I suggest to search some lessons on RU-vid from Russian natives, there are plenty. Also I suggest to check Hi, Native! app. There you can ask questions about language from community, and natives of your target language will help you. And you can always try to find someone from Russia who study English and practice with them. I personally admire your courage, because I can't even imagine how hard Russian is for English speakers. I guess same as Chinese for us. And if you already have some questions about Russian, don't hesitate to ask me. I'll gladly help. Хотя мой Английский не то чтобы идеальный, но зато Русский отличный xD

i know Im asking randomly but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid lost my password. I would love any tips you can give me!

@Roberto Kabir Instablaster =)

@Eliseo Martin I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

@Eliseo Martin WTF IT REALLY WORKED! Just got access to my IG login after roughly 45 mins of using the site. Just had to pay 15 bucks but for sure worth the money :) Thanks so much, you really help me out :D

@Roberto Kabir you are welcome :D

I don't think I'm gifted to be honest. I just found the right motivation and method. I learned German for 5 years in school and basically learned nothing. Before I started learning languages like I do now I would have probably said that I was terrible with languages.

Hey. I can help you if you want. I’m a Russian naitive speaker. Practice makes perfect. Give me a sign.

@@languageswithtom2634 Same thing with English here in Russia, we learn it at least nine years in school and most people can't say a thing in English. Anyway I admire that you choose to learn Russian, it's pretty hard, especially if you native English speaker, all those cases and word modifications.

it was the same for me and then all of a sudden all of the vocab started clicking

Talk english and practice with people can speak english well. It's the only way. Удачи тебе

Ничего подобного. Я матушку замотивировал учить Английский, только когда она вышла на пенсию. Уже год постоянно говорим и практикуемся, хотя тоже постоянно были фразы в духе: "я уже ничего не запоминаю", а теперь оказывается, что всё не так просто. Если не выходит, то либо нужно больше практики, либо менять подход. Но изучение языка наш базовый навык, да, мы не можем делать это как в детстве "в фоновом режиме", но все нужные навыки у мозга всё равно есть.

этот парень из видео, он ведь советует самый лучший способ изучать языки. Чтение. Я так же учил английский, читал каждый день самые простые тексты. Часто это были детские сказки поначалу. Незнакомые слова записывал и заучивал. В итоге я уже через год знал инглиш очень на хорошем уровне. Довольно быстро перешел к сложным текстам. Читал книги которые уже были прочитаны на русском мной (чтобы понимать сюжет, а то поначалу часто теряешь нить повествования). Затем стало еще легче и я уже в удовольствие читал, целыми циклами, например "The Wheel of Time" был полностью прочитан на английском, к тому времени уже успешно зачитывался, на новом для себя языке, до состояния когда не осознаешь что вокруг тебя происходит.

@@ismaeljedidi2248 OR he can read books, like author of the video did. It's one of the best ways to learn a new language.

@@dfsdfsdsfsdfsdfs6694 Yes but it's quite complicated to start learning by reading books.

Hi, I felt comfortable speaking around 8 or 9 months in. I generally don't like reading grammar books. I prefer to read and listen to things and only research grammar when I don't understand something. For that I normally look things up online or ask friends

Привет, ну это сложный язык. Продолжай и станет легче, удачи!

Да ладно! Очевидно, что у меня британский акцент

@@languageswithtom2634 In that case you are definitely a prodigy, because you basically have little-to-no accent in russian.... Anyway, you are really good at russian. P.S. btw you look exactly like Leonardo DiCaprio

@@languageswithtom2634 в том то и дело... Акцента то у тебя практически нет! Есть грамматические ошибки, но с акцентом все ок
