Not only does it lack context, as pointed out, but it's one of the most hilariously prime examples of Word Salad. I giggled when "harms" was the chosen word for what could have been a much simpler, clearer sentence that might have had a point somewhere along the way.

It doesn't really require context.

All it says is people's self-interested and self-sufficient nature creates an atmosphere where they ignore the "group-based" harms they inflict in doing so. For example, how people in the US ignore slave labor in China.

I bet you're one of the retards who reads "Swann's Way" and complains that it's too complicated.

You know, if you actually read the books you were told to read in English class and learned higher-level literacy you'd understand why people write in a more complex manner. It's because it's conducive to more complex thought.

No one wants to read books on the level of The Cat in the Hat over and over again.

I learned years before i even met my wife. I started by backpacking across the country, then taking classes, then eventually taking college courses in unrelated fields taught in 1000% Korean. THEN I met my wife.

If your wife doesn't know English, then it's already 100% worth it. Bad communication will destroy marriages.

So many international marriages fail within first few years due to this.

However, does your wife know English, at least? If she needs your help for everything English then why live in America?

Her English is ok. Not perfect at all but enough that she could survive on her own with it. About the same as my Korean so our sentences are about half and half English and Korean but somehow that works for us.

Instead of just using your final grade to calculate GPA, Quality Points accounts for how much work the class was, as well as sometimes a few other factors.

Nope.

Only for official soviet rules and that affects only the writing.

Just like in Prussian. Anglo BTFO.

> Russian is extremely difficult
Any language you can learn the alphabet of is easy. Just read a couple of times "10^x most used words in languagename", watch some movies with subtitles and if you dont understand something - look in Woerterbuch.
After 20-30 titles you know how to speak the language.
