it's a real surprise a few years ago, according to the media, the rate of russians was 94% who only speak russian. I'm also very surprised that many can speak German and French.

I don't know for sure. - Right now I can only assume. But if you are young, then it makes sense to come to Moscow and enroll in some university. Living in a university dormitory and studying will cost you about $ 10,000 for 5 years. In 5 years you will have excellent knowledge of the Russian language and a profession (for example, a general practitioner or a surgeon)
@@starseed8087 Don't be so biased. If you are only looking for negative information, then you will only find the negative. Putin is no worse and no better than most Western governments. When he wagged his tail and hopped on his hind legs in front of the West, he was good. When he started playing his game, he became bad. The scale of his crimes is much smaller than that of Obama, Clinton and the Bushes.
@@davidnull5590 "Так!"! (Or "Да!" as I hear more often on videos on the front line against the invaders, automatic translation from Ukrainian showing "Yeah!")
My high school in the US once offered Russian. I wish I would have taken it, but I took French instead. Turns out I rarely meet french speaking people in the US, but worked with lots of Russians. There are many Russians in Sacramento, California.
Я честно говоря удивлён как много наших только на русском говорят, я думал мы все изучали английский (хотя по школьной программе), и что вся "молодёжь" умеет хотя бы в 2 языка.
Не все используют иностранные языки, тем более в России очень много регионов. Я вот живу в Татарстане и у нас тут 2 языка, но даже так тут больше русскоговорящих потому что сами татары не все знают свой язык. А на счет обучения, так у нас 3 языка была - русский, английский и татарский, по часам наверное 50/50 английский с татарским делили. Вот мать у меня изучала немецкий в СССР, а отец английский, татарский в то время не преподовали
это от школы зависит. у меня в школе очень хорошо преподавали английский, а потом когда я повзрослела, я узнала, как много молодежи, оказывается-то, не говорит ни на каком другом языке кроме русского :/
с уровнем английского, который преподают в большинстве школ, максимум лёгкие разговоры получится поддержать и видосики в ютубе понять, и то если твои знания оценивали на 4,5
I’m pretty sure most ppl only speak the first language they were taught, and some only know a few words and phrases in English maybe... In most countries, very few speak English fluently... In the Netherlands and in Norway and Sweden and Denmark and Iceland and Faroe Islands, most younger ppl can speak English fluently... I started learning languages on my own last year, and I learned Dutch to an advanced level (over 8.000 base words) in about 3 or 4 months... I also am intermediate level in Norwegian and Swedish and Portuguese, and beginner level in Welsh and German and French and most other Germanic languages and Celtic languages and most Latin languages... I am native speaker level in Spanish (over 10.000 base words) since childhood, and I just learned it by hearing it a lot on TV and in songs...
I also studied Russian on my own. The important thing is to listen and imitate the actual sounds with your ears. By the way,I’m sure you are getting lots of requests for corporate projects.Keep it up! I am really happy to see you in this video❤ daniil you are cool inside and out🥰love!
I can speak Russian, Belarusian and English fluently, also I can almost perfectly understand Ukranian cuz when I was younger I used to watch Ukranian TV shows with my granny plus I tried to learn Ukranian but I can't speak it and also I'm learning some Polish in case of moving to Poland.
Quite interesting for this student of languages. BTW, Daniil, the low volume intelligent background music is greatly appreciated; it does not interfere with concentration like so many other blogs.
As a Swiss, I can't really relate. My mother tongue is French and I started learning German when I was 6, followed by English and Spanish in highschool. Afterwards I chose to continue with English at university, along with Russian. I then moved to the Italian-speaking part where I learned very quickly as I was working there and now I've been learning Ukrainian since March. I'm a lover of languages :)

@@Qwertz2778 Of course, you may🙂. It's a book by Sarah Gysler, a young Swiss francophone, who decided to travel practically without money.

Я родился и вырос в Гонконге, и мои родные языки - кантонский и мандарин (два китайского языка) - в семье и с друзьми говорю на кантонском и с бабушкой (которая умерла в прошлом году) говорил на мандаринском. В детстве учил английский в школе, потом учил немецкий после того, как поступал в универ - потом учился в Германии. И потом выучился русскому для интереса, и ещё японскому. Пытался учиться французскому, испанскому, арабскому, но скоро сдавался. В последнее время начался учиться итальянскому. Ну еще знаю несколько языков программирования ...
@@paolagrando5079 grazie mille! Non so da quando imparare le lingue straniere è diventato un hobby di me. Ma ho deciso di imparare l'italiano non solo a causa del interesse. Sto pensando di lavorare in Italia, ma dicono che non sarebbe possibile senza la conoscenza della lingua. Ho cominciato a imparare la lingua tre mesi fa. Fortunatamente non è una lingua troppo difficile, ma l'ascolto è un grande problema per me.
@@JgvnkhgbbKhrfhutfhk Non so in che campo vorresti lavorare, ma sì, l'italiano è indispensabile. Poi abbiamo diverse altre lingue locali e dialetti. Così, per complicare la vita un po' a tutti. 😊
После просмотра подобных видео с Лондоном и Канадой, я ожидал от сограждан большего. В моём окружении каждый хотя бы английский или немецкий знает и изучает, а оказываается, что, в основном, люди не стремятся выходить из нативных знаний, это обидно. Видимо, народ просто не видит в этом нужды, ибо перезжать не собираются, а путешествовать не хотят или не могут.
Ну, я думаю, что сейчас среди молодых поколений многие изучают помимо английского ещё и другие языки. По крайне мере у меня в моём окружении нет тех, кто только один русский знает и всё
вы сравнили конечно)) в тех роликах в лондоне туча понаехавших со всего света, естественно у них будут в багаже знания языков, канада так вообще двуязычная официально.
Спасибо за Ваше видео. Я давно хотел начать вести влог на английском, но комплексовал из-за произношения. Благодаря Вашему ролику я понял, что можно итак вести влог. Спасибо!!!! --
I seem to recognise many of the faces. There appears to be a correlation between their responses in previous videos and that their ability to speak a language other than Russian. Thanks for your great work Daniil and crew!
@Luther I also think the interviews are broader in context with consistent standardised questions to generate trust in the interviewer, so as to elicit more honest natural responses and allow the interviewer to feel their way to more prickly questions. And, also to reduce suspicion or creating a scene that may lead to reporting the interviewers to the authorities. I suspect the interviews in the country are fast hit and run efforts in complete contrast to the inner city interviews.
I was thinking the same. The correlation of inbread Russian nationalism and only knowing Russian language is probably pretty high. Learning many languages in school is not good for a nationalistic dictatorship.
I don't blame them for refusing to learn any language other than their own, what's wrong with that? Does it upset Karen that she doesn't get to come to Russia and tell people to speak English like she does with other countries?
@@marko.rankovic I also don't speak a language other than English - I've tried and I'm not mentally wired for it, maybe because I've not needed to or viewed it as positive thing to do effort vs reward. The uptake and use of English and the other second languages spoken by those interviewed is different to Russian - that's something Russian's could take a look at. Russians seem to learn other languages, mostly those of nations that don't border Russia. There's a thesis there.
@@ShmacK96 I'm studying Ukrainian, and their sentence structure is a little different from ours, so my brain is still in that transition phase when learning a new language. It screwss up my English sometimes, lol.
Besides Russian I speak fluent Ukrainian, English and Swedish and Catalan at probably A2 level, understand Belorussian and Norwegian quite well, written Danish and some simple things like newspaper headlines in Spanish, Dutch, Polish etc. Made some efforts to learn Turkish but it didn't go well without a tutor.
i wish I could speak more russian and ukrainian. those slavic language always interested me considering I have some roots in both areas. it is very interesting to me to see people speak those languages :)
I just cant understand people who knows only 1 language. Its okay to be fluent only on your native language, but its weird if you dont know English basics. Im from Russia and fluent on English, learning German (because I really love Germany), also i know Ukrainian basics (My dad is Ukranian and when he drunk he just turns his default settings and speak only Ukranian) and also we started learning French this year in school (4 years ago, when i was 10, our school said that our class will start learning French or German (we had choose) in 2019. Well, something went wrong (as always) and we started learning French (without choose between French and Germany) only this year lol)
@@AmonRa-z8w я тоже думаю, нужно учить язык, если уверен, что в будущем он тебе пригодится, либо сфера деятельности требует знание языка, либо если он интересен
@@tarelochka_borscha я согласен с тем что это зависит от сферы, но как по мне базу типо, как заказать еды, должны большинство. В школе у нас английский не то что бы плохой, но тому что я могу спокойно общаться (ирл могут быть небольшие трудности, но условно в дискорде трудностей в общении вообще нет) я почти на 100% благодарен интернету, и в частности играм в которые я играл, так как комьюнити там по большей части англоязычное и язык просто сам потихоньку учился и иногда подкреплялся правилами из учебника.
Honestly I don't understand people who don't understand people who know only one language, it's simply that not everyone is into languages and learning them is not easy at all, it's actually really hard, and if you are not motivated you won't find it worthy. I do know several languages and I love learning about cultures and languages, I'm fluent in English, Spanish and Italian, I know some (very basic) French and Russian and I'm learning Ukrainian, but I don't think about people who don't in a negative way, everyone has their own motivations.
I can speak spanish 🇲🇽 , Russian 🇷🇺, english 🇺🇸 and Japanese 🇯🇵 I lived in Mexico for a year and in dagestan for 3 months and when I was younger I worked in a Japanese restaurant for 3 years. I used to be fluent in Norwegian and chinese but I never was in a situation where I was forced to practice as much as the others, and it's hard to maintain fluency in so many languages

You made some mistakes with the flags. You posted flags of countries who inherited the language from other countries. English is the language of England 🏴. Hence, “English”. Spoken in England since ancient times. And Spanish isn’t Mexico. Spanish is from Spain 🇪🇸.
@@darrena5384 All of his (or her???) flags are good. American English is just a dialect of English. There are more native speakers of it by far than native speakers of any English dialect endemic to England. Likewise, "Mexican" does not exist except as a dialect of Spanish. Each former Spanish colony, whether it be Mexico, Costa Rica, Peru, Argentina or the DR, has its own variation. By posting the US and Mexican flags, he (she?) indicated that the version of English and Spanish that he/she speaks are the American and Mexican versions.
My languages (from most fluent to least fluent): Cantonese (native) Mandarin (basically native but have accents noticeable by native) English (no problem for business and academic communication but obviously non-native) German (studied in Germany but obviously less fluent than English, can talk with Germans in German pretty fluently but sometimes don't understand shit when two Germans speak with each other) Russian (actively learned it for three years and then passively for six years, can communicate in Russian but mostly small talks, can't go too deep like politics) Italian (learned it for three months but it's a pretty easy language, Italians are sometimes impressed because I get subjuctive right) Japanese (actually learned it quite early but never systematically, passed N3 without preparation just because I know Kanji) French (failed my A2 course because my listening sucks lol, now I almost don't remember shit)

this video summarizes knowledge of citizens of Russian-speaking part of Russia. If you ask the same question in Caucasus most of people know perfect Russian and at least one of Caucasian languages which is their native language. My average Russian family is fluent in Russian, Kabardian and Karachay-Balkar languages
It's nice that you are keeping Kabardian alive, after more than two centuries of Russian efforts to wipe out the Kabardian / Circassian populations of the Caucasus. How many people know that the Russian genocide against the Circassian people was equal in horror to the genocide of Armenians by the Ottomans in 1915-23?
In addition to my native languages Ukrainian and Russian, I also know Polish well because of the current situation, I had to move here. My English is not bad (enough to go abroad) and I study Spanish and German. (I also understand Belarusian and Czech well, but I can’t speak)
Родные языки :русский и татарский . Так же знаю и использую: Английский (B2) , немецкий (A2) , финский (А2) , проблематично, но понимаю украинский , белорусский, казахский

In Sweden we have our first language, Swedish, and then we learn English from around age 9 (at the latest), and then from age 12 (earlier it was age 13) we get to choose between German/French/Spanish (all schools have to offer at least 2 of these, some schools offer other languages too), these are manditory. From age 16 we learn the forth language (while we continue study english and other language as well), like one of those we didn't chose when we were 12, or another, which languages depends on the school, and these are not manditory, it depends on which school and courses you chose. And then Swedes understand Norwegian and written Danish as well (some spoken Danish, but it's hard), since our languages are so similar. Unfortunately, languages you don't use that often you tend to forget, so I would say that it's only Swedish and English all Swedes speak fluently. I can't imagine what it would be like only knowing Swedish. So limiting, not being to travel, communicating online, playing games, watching news etc. I think a lot of Swedes tend to forget that not everyone speaks English, because we take it for granted.
You don't get all your movies and TV programmes dubbed as we have in Russia. This makes a big difference, you know. We learn 1 or 2 foreign languages at school too, but we just don't have any ability to practice them as we leave classrooms.
@@deniskhomenko819 Yeah, not having dubbed movies and TV-shows (except for the youngest) helps a lot, we hear English all the time on a daily basis all our lives. English doesn't feel like a second language. In addition to that, Swedish and English are much more closely related, so it's easier for us to learn it.
@@Asa...S I speak both Swedish and English (learned them at university 15 years ago) and yes, from a Russian-speaking perspective Swedish feels like "English with easier and more reasonable grammar". Hälsningar från Ryssland!
Yes, you're right, most Swedes are really fluent in English. But when I studied in a folkhögskola about 20 years ago and we had English as a subject in it, I was surprised to find out that all the Swedes I studied with almost didn't know English at all! We studied it at the very basic level in that folkhögskola. So, not all Swedes know English, I guess it depends on educational and social level (like everywhere). But nevertheless, in my student years we were told by our Swedish teachers in Moscow that Sweden was then number one in the whole world concerning knowledge English as a foreign language (according to some ratings).
there are millions of things that can improve your intellect, some of them (news flash) even can be helpful in every day life. For most people, knowing something except english is useless

Я сама преподаватель английского, 80% моих друзей хорошо понимает английский. Но меня не удивило, что половина людей знает только один язык, так как школьное образование по части языков зачастую на довольно низком уровне. Плюс я могу общаться на Болгарском, не зная ни одного правила, просто схватывала, что могла, пока училась там. Даже работала в полностью болгарском коллективе, проблем практически не возникало, за исключением разве что специфических диалектов. Также на минимальном уровне знаю немецкий, то есть могу сделать заказ в ресторане или дорогу спросить :) А дети сейчас помимо английского вторым языком стали выбирать китайский. А вот европейские языки уходят на второй план, как ни крути, Китай сейчас для многих более перспективный.
Если со мной общаются на английском, то я все понимаю , но я не могу ответить не совершая множество ошибок, поэтому я бы и не сказала, что знаю английский. Думаю именно из за этого было много тех, кто знает только русский
I love languages! I speak Italian, my regional language, English to a "decent" level (at least that is what I hope😅), some German, very very very very super basic japanese. I also learned the Cyrillic alphabet and very basic Russian words, an astonishing low amount of Korean words and some basic greetings in Hungarian. Jó napot guys🙋🏼♀️😅
@@Matstoen so...? am I your teacher? People were sharing their love for languages and i simply joint.. Try saying something nice, it could light your mood up👌
I am from Moscow, Russia and there are only 2 languages that I will never learn on purpose: French and Chinese. You know why? Yeah, right, pronunciation. I tried myself French and it turned out to be a torture 😂 Not because it’s hard to pronounce, but because I don’t like making weird sounds and not saying endings of the words. Spanish and Italian seems like much easier to learn. Now I am only learning advanced English and Spanish. Spanish is very beautiful and useful language nowadays I assume.
There are no weird sounds in French. And if you don't like "not spelling endings of words" you should never go to Andalusia to speak Spanish ... English is also known for its problems with spelling vs. pronounciation. It seems as if you just didn't understand French grammar and rules regarding pronounciation, otherwise I can't explain your statement.
I'm learning Russian. Your language, from my point of view, contains many difficult to pronounce sounds: e.g., trilled r, distinguishing between hard and soft consonants, distinguishing between ш and щ, the х sound (romanized 'kh'). Although, I can imagine that French and Chinese would also be difficult.
This seems very representative of my experience as an English teacher with quite a lot - a lot less now - of Russian students. The language pairs of Russian and German, Russian and English, and Russian and Ukrainian are definitely prevalent. I am still very curious how that will change in the upcoming years after the talk of a fade out of the English language in schools there. For anyone wondering, Busuu is decent at the beginner to low intermediate level. I used it as well as a lot of other apps and found it to be one of the better apps out there. I would even put it in my top 5. I wasn't expecting to see OBI there in the background. I don't know why it surprised me, but I guess I just wasn't expecting it.
Yeah, my wife is Russian and can speak English at a native proficiency but she also speaks German at an intermediate level, I’m American so English is my native language but I speak Spanish at an intermediate level. I was actually able to really help us get by in Madrid and Barcelona over the summer.
As a Russian I can understand Ukrainian (and Surzhik), Belarusian, Serbian and Czech. I sometimes have trouble understanding Polish, but speaking Polish is much easier to understand than reading
you can understand Ukrainian and Czech but you can't understand Polish. Because you don't understand any of these languages. I am Ukrainian and sometimes i understand Czech and Polish perfectly. If in Polish pronunciation is different from Ukrainian, in Czech it pronounce almost the same, sometimes even the same.
Better than most average Americans ! That would be hysterical video. Depending on the state. We are English speakers and we think everyone should, we are a haughty bunch.
I only speak a few languages fluently: German 🇩🇪 English 🇬🇧 French 🇫🇷 Spanish 🇪🇸 Norwegian 🇳🇴 Swedish 🇸🇪 Danish 🇩🇰 Dutch 🇳🇱 I can communicate in the following languages, but not fluently: Russian 🇷🇺 Portuguese 🇵🇹 Italian 🇮🇹 Polish 🇵🇱 Indonesian 🇮🇩 (very easy to learn language) Japanese 🇯🇵 Korean 🇰🇷 Not much, but I get along.
Im skeptical about your definition of fluency. Not being rude but to be fluent in a language you need to be roughly at C2 level. I just doubt that you speak 8 languages at c2 level. There is a huge difference between B1 and C2. It is probably more likely that you didn't estimate the level of fluency to be around C2 and considered anything B1 and up to be "fluent". Again I could be wrong but to be fluent in a language you have to use it roughly everyday. Still cool that you speak different languages. Also you don't have to brag about the number of languages you speak which you did "only speak a few" and then you list 15 languages where 8 of them (according to you) you speak fluent.
Разве это редкость? Мне казалось, что в России повсюду есть люди, знающие мордовский, татарский, удмуртский, чеченский, башкирский и другие местные языки. Меня очень удивило, что таких мало в видео.
Hello, I speak four Languages my first Language is the British Language, Brythonic Celtic Cymric or Welsh as the English Call it and I also speak English , French and German, but I can also speak Italian pretty well and Spanish as well, it is interesting that so many young people , still only speak Russian, it could well be that in the future with Putin only Russian will be allowed to be spoken, I firmly believe that it is in everyones interest to speak as many Languages as you can, my Language is very Ancient, the Language has changed very little in the last 2000 Years, we had 1000 Years of wars with the English. starting with the Saxon incasions in the late 5th Century and ending when the Tudor Dynasty under Henry V11 Took the Throne, he was of Cymric Celtic descent and spoke the Language at Court as did His son Henry V111 and Grandaughter Elizabeth 1 . I am very very old, but I find your Channel interesting and much more informative than the Constant Maniacal drivel from your TV propaganda, reminds me of the Nazi's in Germany, I do know Russia I have visited many times in the past firstly in the 1950's and lastly in 2014, then I could see a very distinct change, even in the 1950's under the Soviet Regime of Khruschev I was welcomed and treated with great pride and kindness, that has never changed, I have friends still in St Petersburg Novgorod Briansk and also in the Ukraine which I know well. I do wish the Terrible War and it is a War would end soon, I hope for all of you young people in Russia to have freedom and peace. There are NO winners in a War only grieving families and Battered Cities. Nos da, ich i gyd, pob hwyl.
Excuse me, sir, but why do you think that soon it will be allowed to speak only Russian in our country? There are nearly 190 different nationalities living in Russia. All of them have their own language. They study their native languages at school. And speak them freely everywhere they like to. But Russian is a national language, so everyone understands and speaks it as well (and 14 former Soviet republics do it also). Besides, there are two foreign languages you must study at school: English and German (somewhere it is French). For example, my Mother could speak 4 languages: Russian (native), Georgian (she was born in Georgia in the 1950-s), German and English. I don't think anyone is going to forbid learning and speaking languages (no matter who rules the country). And my second question, if you don't mind it, why do you call it The Ukraine? I thought it was just Ukraine, like Italy, Spain, Germany and so on. Is there a new rule or a was it a special context?
I am learning Welsh (which reminds me of Dutch, and I also know Dutch) and many other languages, but nothing survives forever - this is a pointIs morteI worId where one is ferced in without one’s consent and against one’s will, and so are all the other things that exist here, including languages and items etc, so everything is bound to pass eventually, in case most ppl didn’t notice...

It’s not much different in the USA-the vast majority of Americans of *European* and *African* descent speak only English fluently. Many Hispanic-American can speak Spanish or at least “Spanglish.” Many Asian-Americans speak their heritage language at least a little. True bilingualism (fluency in more than one language) is relatively rare. Most Americans understand some Spanish-even if they don’t know it’s Spanish-because certain Spanish phrases, words, and responses have been assimilated into American English, in much the same way that New Zealand English contains Maori words. I’m an outlier-I’m fluent in English, conversational in Spanish but not fluent, and I could make my needs known in both Moscow and Kyiv. Of those two, my Ukrainian is better. And I can curse in Irish Gaelic😂 I use Duolingo to study. I learned Spanish in school, so Duolingo is just to strengthen that skill, Ukrainian is a heritage language for me that I knew bits and pieces of, so I’m learning the language on Duolingo, Russian seemed interesting, and I’m learning some Irish (another heritage language for me).
Only Finnish and English fluently here, but I can get by in Japanese, too. 🇫🇮🇬🇧🇯🇵 In addition I know some German, Spanish, and Swedish. 🇩🇪🇪🇸🇸🇪 I've tried at some point to learn a little bit of Russia, Hindi, French, and Hungarian. 🇷🇺🇮🇳🇫🇷🇭🇺 But thanks to the languages I know I can understand at least some Norwegian, Danish, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Estonian, and Karelian. ✌🏻😁 "Jack of all trades, but master of none is better than master of just one."
@@Olivier-GM Not particularly when it's your native language. 😉 (That's a lie, there are a lot of native Finnish speakers whose grammar and vocabulary are atrocious)
I remember learning Swedish for quite some time and the first time I listened to a podcast I understood almost nothing. It's much better now but I still don't understand many things, especially when Swedes mumble and skip like every other word. I would need to live there or talk to a native regularly to truly get the hang of it. So I'm a bit skeptical if you understand more than "hello" and "bye" in most language's you mentioned 😅
I can speak english pretty well, my native is russian, can understand but not to speak ukranian, and can a little understand and speak german as well. The more languages you know, the wider are your views. Most russians can't speak other languages and they are narrow minded and fanatic because of that.
I speak Russian, English and German. I understand Ukrainian pretty well but barely can speak it, I need to learn grammar. I also used to learn a little of French, Italian, Japanese, Czech. I wish to know some Scandinavian languages, I also like Old English. But it all takes time and there’s no opportunities for practice
mb some of them know other languages but they can not speak. You don't need a foreign language in Russia if you are not consuming content in another language, I think it is quite common for big countries and tongues with more than 20 mln speakers
As an American living here, the most common foreign language on the streets here (other than Uzbekistan and Tajikistan languages) is Chinese, third is arabic/Persian, fourth is English

English is the de facto language of the world. Even back in the 1950s aviation control had recommended basic English proficiency for the industry. Now to access the internet and the world elementary English is a must.
Living in Canada I speak English, was taught some French in school but it had no practical application for me. Estonian was my first language, grandparents on my father's side who lived with us only spoke Estonian and all my parents friends were Esto. Both sets of my grandparents left Estonia during WW2 to escape the Commies taking over. Though now at 45 my Estonian has become very rusty (grandparents died in the 1980s and I stopped going to Esto camps, scouts, folkdancing etc)

And my father was born in Belarus, studied in St. Petersburg and came to Estonia to work, cause in the Soviet times students were forced to relocate to work in different parts of USSR. So i guess i'm an "okkupant, tibla".🙄
I'm Dutch. As a small trading country we had to learn at highschool the languages of our larger neighbours; French; German and English. Later in live I added Spanish to it.
I visited Russia a lot (St. P & Moscow) from 1996-2005, and unless they've made miracle progress in the intervening years, I think there's probably a high degree of over-estimation of their foreign language abilities as claimed here. :D I know their surfing the net has helped some in recent years, but let's face it- that's a pretty passive way to learn another language. I'll never forget a Moscow cop who had taught himself some Texas twang English by watching old episodes of "Dallas"! It might have been endearing if he weren't trying to press me for a bribe!! ^^
I mean, Roman from the NFKRZ channel grew up in Chelyabinsk very much just an ordinary Russian kid and he taught himself superb English (honestly - look his channel up if you haven't already; he's completely fluent) almost entirely through chatting to international gamers while gaming online, and I suspect he's not the only young Russian who has. So I guess things have moved on a bit since the late 90s/early 2000s.
I wouldn't be surprised. With the inclusion of the internet into peoples lives, it became a lot easier to learn english, especially for young people. Ofc it depends on how much english content a person is consuming.
@@rayday7349 The internet exists outside a countries boarders (with a few exceptions) and as far as I know until very recently you could access most of the internet from Russia just fine. Sure you don't need English in Russia, I would also be fine if I didn't speak English. It's a choice people make that want to be more connected to the world.
I've heard this before many times from *LongDistance GF* from *Russia* (she's an English teacher) and not many speak it she told me. I was shocked when I first heard it tbough. And that its changing slowly, but.. majority just speak *Russian* or *Russian & Ukrainian* We both speak 4 Languages. But I still have some ways to improve in *Russian* & Would like to learn more later down the line. Because of the War it's been hard to meet each other. But we keep in Touch weekly.

I speak 4 😎 English German Russian and little bit of Ukrainian, Polish (don't count it cuz I only read and understand, don't really speak it). Also tried learning Swedish, but pronunciation is so sophisticated so I gave up and forgot most words (I remember only that och means and, pojke means boy, tider means time and aldrig means never).

That's because a large chunk of the internet is in English, but also books, movies, TV shows. And English subtitles for foreign movies/foreign TV shows/anime. Devices with menus and interfaces, and games are pretty much English by default. Hoping that a game come with a ruzzian translation (or any translation) is a bit of a crapshoot, it's entirely up to the developer of the game, and if they feel there's no market for the game there (or pirates), they don't even bother translating it.
Do the video again, but get the people to say something in each foreign language they claim to know so that we can be sure they're not lying. For example, I am English and I can also say Да and нет, but I wouldn't claim to speak Русский. Mind you, Да and нет will be enough in a nightclub.

Я честно говоря удивлён как много наших только на русском говорят, я думал мы все изучали английский (хотя по школьной программе), и что вся "молодёжь" умеет хотя бы в 2 языка.
Ладно. Стянул лицо. Много умеет в 2 языка.
Не все используют иностранные языки, тем более в России очень много регионов. Я вот живу в Татарстане и у нас тут 2 языка, но даже так тут больше русскоговорящих потому что сами татары не все знают свой язык. А на счет обучения, так у нас 3 языка была - русский, английский и татарский, по часам наверное 50/50 английский с татарским делили. Вот мать у меня изучала немецкий в СССР, а отец английский, татарский в то время не преподовали
Школьная программа это вообще ни о чем, знанием языка такое не назовешь. Даже после ин.яза у многих все печальненько.
это от школы зависит. у меня в школе очень хорошо преподавали английский, а потом когда я повзрослела, я узнала, как много молодежи, оказывается-то, не говорит ни на каком другом языке кроме русского :/
с уровнем английского, который преподают в большинстве школ, максимум лёгкие разговоры получится поддержать и видосики в ютубе понять, и то если твои знания оценивали на 4,5
The joke used to be that if you spoke three languages you were trilingual, two language you were bilingual and one language, you were American.

In the Netherlands and in Norway and Sweden and Denmark and Iceland and Faroe Islands, most younger ppl can speak English fluently... I started learning languages on my own last year, and I learned Dutch to an advanced level (over 8.000 base words) in about 3 or 4 months... I also am intermediate level in Norwegian and Swedish and Portuguese, and beginner level in Welsh and German and French and most other Germanic languages and Celtic languages and most Latin languages...

I seem to recognise many of the faces. There appears to be a correlation between their responses in previous videos and that their ability to speak a language other than Russian.
Thanks for your great work Daniil and crew!
@Luther I also think the interviews are broader in context with consistent standardised questions to generate trust in the interviewer, so as to elicit more honest natural responses and allow the interviewer to feel their way to more prickly questions. And, also to reduce suspicion or creating a scene that may lead to reporting the interviewers to the authorities. I suspect the interviews in the country are fast hit and run efforts in complete contrast to the inner city interviews.
I was thinking the same. The correlation of inbread Russian nationalism and only knowing Russian language is probably pretty high. Learning many languages in school is not good for a nationalistic dictatorship.
I am pretty sure the 100 Russians are the same 100 Russians asked multiple questions and edited for multiple episodes
I don't blame them for refusing to learn any language other than their own, what's wrong with that? Does it upset Karen that she doesn't get to come to Russia and tell people to speak English like she does with other countries?
@@marko.rankovic I also don't speak a language other than English - I've tried and I'm not mentally wired for it, maybe because I've not needed to or viewed it as positive thing to do effort vs reward. The uptake and use of English and the other second languages spoken by those interviewed is different to Russian - that's something Russian's could take a look at. Russians seem to learn other languages, mostly those of nations that don't border Russia. There's a thesis there.

@@darrena5384 All of his (or her???) flags are good. American English is just a dialect of English. There are more native speakers of it by far than native speakers of any English dialect endemic to England.
Likewise, "Mexican" does not exist except as a dialect of Spanish. Each former Spanish colony, whether it be Mexico, Costa Rica, Peru, Argentina or the DR, has its own variation.

In Sweden we have our first language, Swedish, and then we learn English from around age 9 (at the latest), and then from age 12 (earlier it was age 13) we get to choose between German/French/Spanish (all schools have to offer at least 2 of these, some schools offer other languages too), these are manditory.
From age 16 we learn the forth language (while we continue study english and other language as well), like one of those we didn't chose when we were 12, or another, which languages depends on the school, and these are not manditory, it depends on which school and courses you chose.
And then Swedes understand Norwegian and written Danish as well (some spoken Danish, but it's hard), since our languages are so similar.
Unfortunately, languages you don't use that often you tend to forget, so I would say that it's only Swedish and English all Swedes speak fluently. I can't imagine what it would be like only knowing Swedish. So limiting, not being to travel, communicating online, playing games, watching news etc.
I think a lot of Swedes tend to forget that not everyone speaks English, because we take it for granted.

But when I studied in a folkhögskola about 20 years ago and we had English as a subject in it, I was surprised to find out that all the Swedes I studied with almost didn't know English at all! We studied it at the very basic level in that folkhögskola. So, not all Swedes know English, I guess it depends on educational and social level (like everywhere). But nevertheless, in my student years we were told by our Swedish teachers in Moscow that Sweden was then number one in the whole world concerning knowledge English as a foreign language (according to some ratings).

Я сама преподаватель английского, 80% моих друзей хорошо понимает английский. Но меня не удивило, что половина людей знает только один язык, так как школьное образование по части языков зачастую на довольно низком уровне. Плюс я могу общаться на Болгарском, не зная ни одного правила, просто схватывала, что могла, пока училась там. Даже работала в полностью болгарском коллективе, проблем практически не возникало, за исключением разве что специфических диалектов. Также на минимальном уровне знаю немецкий, то есть могу сделать заказ в ресторане или дорогу спросить :)
А дети сейчас помимо английского вторым языком стали выбирать китайский. А вот европейские языки уходят на второй план, как ни крути, Китай сейчас для многих более перспективный.

I am from Moscow, Russia and there are only 2 languages that I will never learn on purpose: French and Chinese. You know why? Yeah, right, pronunciation. I tried myself French and it turned out to be a torture 😂 Not because it’s hard to pronounce, but because I don’t like making weird sounds and not saying endings of the words. Spanish and Italian seems like much easier to learn. Now I am only learning advanced English and Spanish. Spanish is very beautiful and useful language nowadays I assume.
There are no weird sounds in French. And if you don't like "not spelling endings of words" you should never go to Andalusia to speak Spanish ...
English is also known for its problems with spelling vs. pronounciation. It seems as if you just didn't understand French grammar and rules regarding pronounciation, otherwise I can't explain your statement.
Why learning a European language since you can´t go there: Better learn Chinese
@@damarmar1001 since I’m more intelligent than you, I’d prefer to choose myself where to go and what to do 😂
@@ratatatuff are u french? Are u offended?🤣 French grammar rules are not hard at all. The only problem is “pronunciation rules”.
I'm learning Russian. Your language, from my point of view, contains many difficult to pronounce sounds: e.g., trilled r, distinguishing between hard and soft consonants, distinguishing between ш and щ, the х sound (romanized 'kh'). Although, I can imagine that French and Chinese would also be difficult.
This seems very representative of my experience as an English teacher with quite a lot - a lot less now - of Russian students. The language pairs of Russian and German, Russian and English, and Russian and Ukrainian are definitely prevalent. I am still very curious how that will change in the upcoming years after the talk of a fade out of the English language in schools there.
For anyone wondering, Busuu is decent at the beginner to low intermediate level. I used it as well as a lot of other apps and found it to be one of the better apps out there. I would even put it in my top 5.
I wasn't expecting to see OBI there in the background. I don't know why it surprised me, but I guess I just wasn't expecting it.
Yeah, my wife is Russian and can speak English at a native proficiency but she also speaks German at an intermediate level, I’m American so English is my native language but I speak Spanish at an intermediate level. I was actually able to really help us get by in Madrid and Barcelona over the summer.

Ukrainian is actually not that common.
As a Russian I can understand Ukrainian (and Surzhik), Belarusian, Serbian and Czech. I sometimes have trouble understanding Polish, but speaking Polish is much easier to understand than reading
Why? Written and spoken Polish is much easier to understand than Czech
Yes, I was wondering why so few speak Slavic languages or minority languages of Russia
you can understand Ukrainian and Czech but you can't understand Polish. Because you don't understand any of these languages. I am Ukrainian and sometimes i understand Czech and Polish perfectly. If in Polish pronunciation is different from Ukrainian, in Czech it pronounce almost the same, sometimes even the same.

Im skeptical about your definition of fluency. Not being rude but to be fluent in a language you need to be roughly at C2 level. I just doubt that you speak 8 languages at c2 level. There is a huge difference between B1 and C2. It is probably more likely that you didn't estimate the level of fluency to be around C2 and considered anything B1 and up to be "fluent". Again I could be wrong but to be fluent in a language you have to use it roughly everyday. Still cool that you speak different languages. Also you don't have to brag about the number of languages you speak which you did "only speak a few" and then you list 15 languages where 8 of them (according to you) you speak fluent.

Hello, I speak four Languages my first Language is the British Language, Brythonic Celtic Cymric or Welsh as the English Call it and I also speak English , French and German, but I can also speak Italian pretty well and Spanish as well, it is interesting that so many young people , still only speak Russian, it could well be that in the future with Putin only Russian will be allowed to be spoken, I firmly believe that it is in everyones interest to speak as many Languages as you can, my Language is very Ancient, the Language has changed very little in the last 2000 Years, we had 1000 Years of wars with the English. starting with the Saxon incasions in the late 5th Century and ending when the Tudor Dynasty under Henry V11 Took the Throne, he was of Cymric Celtic descent and spoke the Language at Court as did His son Henry V111 and Grandaughter Elizabeth 1 .
I am very very old, but I find your Channel interesting and much more informative than the Constant Maniacal drivel from your TV propaganda, reminds me of the Nazi's in Germany, I do know Russia I have visited many times in the past firstly in the 1950's and lastly in 2014, then I could see a very distinct change, even in the 1950's under the Soviet Regime of Khruschev I was welcomed and treated with great pride and kindness, that has never changed, I have friends still in St Petersburg Novgorod Briansk and also in the Ukraine which I know well.
I do wish the Terrible War and it is a War would end soon, I hope for all of you young people in Russia to have freedom and peace. There are NO winners in a War only grieving families and Battered Cities.
Nos da, ich i gyd, pob hwyl.
Excuse me, sir, but why do you think that soon it will be allowed to speak only Russian in our country? There are nearly 190 different nationalities living in Russia. All of them have their own language. They study their native languages at school. And speak them freely everywhere they like to. But Russian is a national language, so everyone understands and speaks it as well (and 14 former Soviet republics do it also). Besides, there are two foreign languages you must study at school: English and German (somewhere it is French). For example, my Mother could speak 4 languages: Russian (native), Georgian (she was born in Georgia in the 1950-s), German and English. I don't think anyone is going to forbid learning and speaking languages (no matter who rules the country). And my second question, if you don't mind it, why do you call it The Ukraine? I thought it was just Ukraine, like Italy, Spain, Germany and so on. Is there a new rule or a was it a special context?

Interesting comment. May Welsh survive forever!
I am learning Welsh (which reminds me of Dutch, and I also know Dutch) and many other languages, but nothing survives forever - this is a pointIs morteI worId where one is ferced in without one’s consent and against one’s will, and so are all the other things that exist here, including languages and items etc, so everything is bound to pass eventually, in case most ppl didn’t notice...
The big superiority term sir cannot be misused by hum’ns and must be edited out, and all hum’ns are the exact opposite of such terms - I am the only Mrs / Lady / Miss / Princess / Queen / Star etc and my protectors are the only sir / lord / mr / prince / king etc, and big / special names like Eva (in Evans) and Elizabeth / Beth / Elise etc and words like Son (in Wilson) which means Sun in Afrikaans also only reflect me & my protectors, and cannot be in one’s name or yt name, and all unsuitable names / terms etc must be changed / edited out, while pronouns and articles and nouns cannot be with a capital letter when referring to oneself or other ppl, and Royalty terms (including the words throne and reign etc) and love related terms (including the word friends, which only reflects my pure protectors aka the alphas who are the only friends / bfs / lovers etc) cannot be misused by hum’ns in any way, and must be edited out!
It’s not much different in the USA-the vast majority of Americans of *European* and *African* descent speak only English fluently. Many Hispanic-American can speak Spanish or at least “Spanglish.” Many Asian-Americans speak their heritage language at least a little. True bilingualism (fluency in more than one language) is relatively rare. Most Americans understand some Spanish-even if they don’t know it’s Spanish-because certain Spanish phrases, words, and responses have been assimilated into American English, in much the same way that New Zealand English contains Maori words.
I’m an outlier-I’m fluent in English, conversational in Spanish but not fluent, and I could make my needs known in both Moscow and Kyiv. Of those two, my Ukrainian is better. And I can curse in Irish Gaelic😂
I use Duolingo to study. I learned Spanish in school, so Duolingo is just to strengthen that skill, Ukrainian is a heritage language for me that I knew bits and pieces of, so I’m learning the language on Duolingo, Russian seemed interesting, and I’m learning some Irish (another heritage language for me).
Whats funny is hearing native Irish speakers curse in English while speaking Irish! 😂 Ah for f**k sake, ní dhearna mé é! (Translation: I didn't do it)
In America it's rare. In Africa, Asia or Europe it's pretty common to see people speak 3 languages fluently.
Only Finnish and English fluently here, but I can get by in Japanese, too. 🇫🇮🇬🇧🇯🇵 In addition I know some German, Spanish, and Swedish. 🇩🇪🇪🇸🇸🇪 I've tried at some point to learn a little bit of Russia, Hindi, French, and Hungarian. 🇷🇺🇮🇳🇫🇷🇭🇺 But thanks to the languages I know I can understand at least some Norwegian, Danish, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Estonian, and Karelian. ✌🏻😁 "Jack of all trades, but master of none is better than master of just one."
Hey, im learning Swedish and Danish, native language is Russian.
Le finnois est une langue difficile à apprendre.
@@Olivier-GM Not particularly when it's your native language. 😉
(That's a lie, there are a lot of native Finnish speakers whose grammar and vocabulary are atrocious)
I remember learning Swedish for quite some time and the first time I listened to a podcast I understood almost nothing. It's much better now but I still don't understand many things, especially when Swedes mumble and skip like every other word. I would need to live there or talk to a native regularly to truly get the hang of it. So I'm a bit skeptical if you understand more than "hello" and "bye" in most language's you mentioned 😅
Karelian has several dialects that are very different from each other
I can speak english pretty well, my native is russian, can understand but not to speak ukranian, and can a little understand and speak german as well. The more languages you know, the wider are your views. Most russians can't speak other languages and they are narrow minded and fanatic because of that.
I speak Russian, English and German. I understand Ukrainian pretty well but barely can speak it, I need to learn grammar.
I also used to learn a little of French, Italian, Japanese, Czech. I wish to know some Scandinavian languages, I also like Old English. But it all takes time and there’s no opportunities for practice
Dann hast du meinen Respekt.
mb some of them know other languages but they can not speak.
You don't need a foreign language in Russia if you are not consuming content in another language, I think it is quite common for big countries and tongues with more than 20 mln speakers
As an American living here, the most common foreign language on the streets here (other than Uzbekistan and Tajikistan languages) is Chinese, third is arabic/Persian, fourth is English
Then u must live in NY bc I can't imagine where else those languages would be prevalent over Chinese or Spanish in US

Tajik (or as you say Tajikistan language lol) is a dialect of Persian. It's called Farsi Tajiki.

Living in Canada I speak English, was taught some French in school but it had no practical application for me. Estonian was my first language, grandparents on my father's side who lived with us only spoke Estonian and all my parents friends were Esto. Both sets of my grandparents left Estonia during WW2 to escape the Commies taking over.
Though now at 45 my Estonian has become very rusty (grandparents died in the 1980s and I stopped going to Esto camps, scouts, folkdancing etc)

@@drdelewded wow! You must have had huge family in Estonia! I guess i'm a "commie", since my Russian grandmother on my mother's side came to Estonia to work after war, she had an aunt living in some small Estonian town. And my father was born in Belarus, studied in St. Petersburg and came to Estonia to work, cause in the Soviet times students were forced to relocate to work in different parts of USSR. So i guess i'm an "okkupant, tibla".🙄

I visited Russia a lot (St. P & Moscow) from 1996-2005, and unless they've made miracle progress in the intervening years, I think there's probably a high degree of over-estimation of their foreign language abilities as claimed here. :D I know their surfing the net has helped some in recent years, but let's face it- that's a pretty passive way to learn another language. I'll never forget a Moscow cop who had taught himself some Texas twang English by watching old episodes of "Dallas"! It might have been endearing if he weren't trying to press me for a bribe!! ^^
🤣🤣🤣 sounds like he REALLY learned Texas English. Bribe and all! 🤣🤣
I mean, Roman from the NFKRZ channel grew up in Chelyabinsk very much just an ordinary Russian kid and he taught himself superb English (honestly - look his channel up if you haven't already; he's completely fluent) almost entirely through chatting to international gamers while gaming online, and I suspect he's not the only young Russian who has. So I guess things have moved on a bit since the late 90s/early 2000s.
I wouldn't be surprised. With the inclusion of the internet into peoples lives, it became a lot easier to learn english, especially for young people. Ofc it depends on how much english content a person is consuming.

That's because a large chunk of the internet is in English, but also books, movies, TV shows. And English subtitles for foreign movies/foreign TV shows/anime. Devices with menus and interfaces, and games are pretty much English by default. Hoping that a game come with a ruzzian translation (or any translation) is a bit of a crapshoot, it's entirely up to the developer of the game, and if they feel there's no market for the game there (or pirates), they don't even bother translating it.
Why should they? Isn't English lingua franca?
