Quick question for somebody who wants to learn a language:

Is Russian particularly difficult to learn?
>>
cyka blyat idi nahuy amerikanski

Yeah

If you are native english speaker then yes
>>
Yes they have like 6 different cases and they still conjugate adjectives and nouns like fucking Latin. As a burger you don't even stand a chance.

The main difficulty is grasping cases. Russian nouns and adjectives have different endings based on gender, number, and context. It makes the language difficult to grasp, but much more flexible than English.

For instance, the English sentence "Ivan loves mom" is pretty set in stone. Word order tells us that Ivan is the person loving and mom is the person being loved.

Whereas Russian can express the same sentence

Ивaн любит мaмy
мaмy любит Ивaн
любит Ивaн мaмy

etc.

All mean the same thing; the meaning isn't contained in the order, but rather the word endings
In addition, verbs have different endings based on the subject, similar to Spanish. Here's a chart that's a sneak peek at what you have to deal with


Russian is a very interesting language and it does open a lot of doors, but yeah, it's harder than like French would be for English speakers

Russian sounds like caveman talk desu

>not cavemen Russians imply you

A question would sound much better with SOV (just like most short sentences btw). "Любит Ивaн мaмy" sounds more like the beginning of a story about incest.
