Why dont you learn slavic, its fun and silly when yiu misspronounce words Not really as helpful in the world of Business, which is where Multilingualism is helpful. Biggest GDP's go to English, Mandarin, Japanese, German, and Spanish. Nearest Slavic language is Russia, at half the GDP associated with Spanish. Slavic tongues are a family, so knowing one doesn't mean knowing all at a usable level anyway. If you know lets say Bosnian you wilk understand if you were in a conversation with a serb, if you talk with a bulgar or russian you will ubdrrstand some of the stuff |

Bosnian-Serbian-Croatian mutual intelligibility is believable, but not Russian |

I just researched: Bosnian, Croatian, and Serbian are in a family, so they are somewhat mutually intelligible. Russian and Bulgarian are not as close to them

It must've been pretty basic Russian. I sincerely doubt your claims, especially after the "swiss austrian german French" joke |

English German Swiss Austrian kidna Russian Bosnian Croatian Serbian Bulgar Romanian Slovenian, I am from Bosnia if you know onr slavic laguange you bassicly know all of them because thry are almost thr same Swiss? That's not a language? It's either Swiss German, or Swiss French or Swiss Italian or Romansh.  Alot of Germans consider the Swiss dialect a different language German dialects can often be very very different. |

I believe Austrian isn't a language too, more of a dialect of sorts. need backup. Austrian isn't a language officially, too similar to German to be a language so its considered a dialect |

I sincerely doubt your claims, especially after the "swiss austrian german French" joke Super RTL on the resiver has a normal just Super RTL then Österreich Super RTL and Schweiz RTL. And on the Slavic debate you can go through a conv with a croat eith understanding almost everything ( if you know bosnian or serb) and you can understand kinda what a russian is talking about, NOTE we use cerilic and latin alphabets so its not that hard for me to read russian |

But, if it's in your language family and you have no prior knowledge, then i can see somewhat. |

Russian is not. Bosnians and Serbs understand Russians cause many words are the same and we both write in the cerelic alphabet ( we write and both alphabets just so you didnt forget it), as I said a Lot of russian words are like our so yoi could go throigh a conv with a russian if you talked very slowly. |
