@thor I always considered our languages very different, but both really complicated. I'm in fact surprised we have words that are phonetically close. Because it's borrowed in both languages, I suppose.
Russian is like French, but with Slavic words and Cyrillic alphabet. Sounds crazy, right? 😅
It's really good for poetry, but not for general usage and really hard to learn I think. I've never really liked it myself and admired English — how it's really easy to use, still beautiful.
