#53: Speaking Russian

Speaking Russian is like trying to unravel a ball of yarn tangled up by a naughty kitten; it’s a tough language! For starters, Russians have six different cases for their nouns. Six! They also have different ways of saying “you,” depending on whether you’re formal or informal. Talk about adding insult to injury! 

If that’s not hard enough, the Cyrillic alphabet can be a real doozy. Someone took the regular alphabet and spun it in the washing machine. But hey, don’t let the difficulties of speaking Russian get you down. Remember, practice makes perfect, and throw in a “да” (da) when in doubt!
