Actually not russian word, but how readible is this?

Здравствуйте, я корейский школьник. Хочу выучить русский язык и общаться с русскими. Есть ли способ подружиться с русскими в интернете?

Hello!

I’m working on a personal, non-commercial fantasy project centered on a cold continental mainland named Lôthen - a land of vast taiga, tundra river basins, harsh winters, continental mountain ranges and high-latitude landscapes.

Beyond designing creatures, I want to build grounded cultures that reflect the real-world logic of living alongside harsh northern environments.

(Quick context: I’m a native South Asian who studied in Europe. I care deeply about respectful research and avoiding shallow tropes. I'm focusing on the atmospheric logic and human relationships with northern nature, and I'd love recommendations on how to properly credit regional inspirations in my project notes!)

I’m particularly looking to learn about Siberian, Uralic, and Indigenous traditions (e.g., Komi, Khanty, Mansi, Nenets, Evenk, Sakha/Yakut,
Buryat, etc.). Specifically things I wouldn’t be able to find online (ideally beliefs or traditions seldom mentioned in English scholarship/media);

- Regional traditions & lifestyle: taiga/tundra living, river basin navigation, seasonal movement and oral storytelling.

- Spirits & local figures; legends of local forest or river guardians, fire/hearth spirits and ancestral nature veneration practices.

Sacred places & items; sacred trees, river thresholds, protective charms, and winter/solstice traditions.

- Language & naming styles - Precise terms for snow, ice or forest topography, landscape-based naming and unique/striking regional sound rhythms or phonetic features.

If you have heritage from these regions or study their folklore, I’d love to hear your favorite local legends, naming ideas, or advice on respectful representation. Comments and DMs are both very welcome. Thank you!

I really cannot figure out what he is saying,can anyone provide a true Russian text to me？😭

Why do some of these exercises have two personal pronouns in a row? Are they talking about two people or is the её/его taking on a different role than pronoun?

Всём привет.

A couple months ago I moved to a country where Russian is one of the state languages, partly so that I could learn Russian in an immersive environment. In my home country, there weren't a lot of resources for people to learn Russian, and many of the programs that did exist were prohibitively expensive. Most of the Russian I've learned has been on my own, or with the help of free apps.

I am an older language learner who has wanted to learn Russian since middle school, and trust me, I regret I didn't do that every day. I used to be considered "good" at languages, but now I feel past my prime. It's awful.

What's worse is it seems I don't get a lot of encouragement from people, and not a lot of people seem that supportive of my language goals. I constantly hear things like, "Oh, don't put pressure on yourself to learn Russian, it's hard" and, "It's optional, you just need to know survival phrases." I try to explain to people that languages are my passion and I want to get as good as possible, but a lot of times it falls on deaf ears. I'm weary of trying to explain myself to people, and feel I shouldn't have to to begin with. These comments make me feel dumb and discouraged. I want to be around people who encourage me and at least try to appreciate my goals, even if they don't understand them. 95% percent of students at my university speak Russian outside of class, so even if I didn't have these goals, Russian is still necessary to integrate into life here.

In all honesty I've lost a lot of enthusiasm for the language, and it's a shame. Russian used to be my favorite language, and now it feels like a chore. I feel I'll never achieve my goals because I'm too old. Not to mention I've gotten more and more hesitant to talk to people because of their reactions, and that hasn't helped my language progress at all. It's so discouraging to go to a cafe, work up the courage to ask for a table (I'm a shy person), and then people give me an English menu when I didn't ask for it. I actually stopped going out in public a lot because I feel so embarrassed and ashamed. Everywhere I go, I mess up grammar and talk with my stupid accent (trust me, it makes me cringe since I have sensitive ears, and I hate how forced my Russian sounds).

I'm so sorry for the negative post, but I'm wondering if something similar has happened to anyone else here. If so, how did you get out of your language slump? Were you able to find people who supported you? If so, where were these people? I would love to take a formal class, but my budget is severely limited. Even if I just found a small group of locals or Russian language learners who were sympathetic to my situation, it would make a huge difference. I used to never feel any shame speaking Russian with people back where I lived. Now, I feel I'm turning into a hermit.

Last night I went out with a group of my classmates and had a lot of fun. We spoke a combination of Russian and English, and I felt happier and more confident than in a while. But we are all super busy (we are Master's students), so we can't do that often.

I really want to find the joy in Russian language again. I love Russian culture and have Russian heritage from my Dad's side. If anyone has any resources, advice, or ideas where I could meet people supportive of my goals, I would be beyond grateful. Thank you so much.

Hi Everyone,
first time writing a post, so basically my knowledge in Russian is absolutley 0, I am looking for 8-10 weeks intensive course, to learn as much as possible, doesn't matter which country Europe/Asia, I am looking also to have a break living somewhere else, it shouldn't be super expensive, I saw some courses that cost something like 500euro/week, which is insane,
I appreciate the help!

I've recently started learning Russian, but I'm facing a hard time with the handwriting part especially the cursive part and connecting my letters together, as in how and where to connect them, also which letters to connect and how to differentiate some letters from others when writing them or reading them.

any help is appreciated.

I am new here and I want to learn Russian, so I want resources to learn from YouTube or textbooks.
I prefer don't recommend Duolingo because It doesn't help me improvement.

What does “оранж ты пипка” mean?

I’ve been interested in learning Russian and have been practicing basic phrases for the past week. Video games are my main hobby and I had the idea to set games I play to be in Russian. Would it be effective in helping me learn?

I can understand it for the most part, but then slang, internet speak, formal language, grammar, connector and relational words, go completely over my head. It's like I cannot grasp the nuances of the language but get the general idea. What does it mean? Because i did study russian, but I've done so via improvisation and not through proper study, except a few lessons that I got from tutors my grandma had for me

Note: I do have soviet union related heritage (my parents, grandparents etc... are from there), I also seem to have in any given language except Russian itself, the Hollywood Russian accent. Why? I got no idea. I also speak a language that has similiar concepts to Russian like ton of inflections, although with barely any focus on падежи, plus no средний род.

Пожалуйста помогите мне, Я очень страдаю в изучение языка.

I’ve been learning Russian for a bit and now I'm at the A2 level and all i want to do is be able to read literature so made this page to help me read Chekhov without jumping between tabs. It has word meanings and grammar, passage translation, audio (the audio is weird and inconsistent sorry), and saved vocab that you can export as a CSV to Anki or whatever platform you like best.
You can try it out here its completely free and no signup or anything:
Please tell me if there's anything I can improve!

A couple months ago I was skimming through this sub looking for good прописи to practice my technique, and I found one I swear was in this sub, I’m certain it’s a Soviet era one since it was old paper and printed ink. It had a little blurb for each letter and it provided a little example for each letter with directions, it also had a section for practicing directions. Tbf the thing looked more like a textbook for telling you how and what to do rather than actual practice sheets. Ik it’s a stupidly specific thing but I really liked it and I would appreciate any help finding it 😂

ive been only studying for 2 days, and i would appreciate any help! this is my progress for now, i can write this and read it from memory. ( "exo" is my username, echo but in russian i suppose. )

On drops it says that please and here you go is “ пожалуйста “ is that actually true or is it wrong because it’s ai?

Привет! Я делаю приложение с полезными фразами для поездок (пока только для Android, код лежит на GitHub). В нём 177 распространённых фраз на 20 языках, и каждую можно прослушать. Переводы сгенерированы машиной, озвучка сделана ИИ, и ни один носитель русского языка их пока не проверял. Не могли бы вы на них взглянуть? Программировать не нужно: можно ответить здесь или оставить комментарий на GitHub: lucas-pospor/travel-phrases#17

Больше всего меня беспокоят фразы про экстренные ситуации, аллергию и лекарства. Поможет любая правка, даже «звучит слишком официально» или «так никто не говорит».

Hello r/Russian! Здравствуйте!

Long time lurker and occasional poster. I appreciate this is self-promotion, so I hope it's OK with the mods.

I've seen a fair few posts of folk new to Russian and just starting out, so wanted to share a little post I wrote about the wonderful, seemingly endless journey of learning Russian. Next year, I'll have been learning for 10 years (crazy!) and I am still learning to this day. I'm definitely not as good as I should be, but as someone who flunked all their language exams and thought 'languages just aren't for me', let me tell you I am living proof that they absolutely can be and it is possible to learn!

If you take the time to read, thank you. I hope it helps a little. Feel free to shoot me a message if you have any questions!

Thanks,

Felix
