I've wanted to learn Russian since I was 15 or 16. I'm 52 now and finally getting around to making a real effort to learn it on my own. I've never thought of it as a aurally aggressive language. Then again, I just really love to listen to it. Just last weekend I went to a local Eastern European market to have a look around. When I went to pay for my items I was behind a woman who spoke with the cashier for about 5 minutes in Russian. They eventually stopped and apologized for taking up so much time. I told them it was ok. I just loved to hear them speak. Lol so they proceeded to go another 5 minutes while I stood there going "Well I know what THAT word was...and THAT one...." but everything else was a mystery. For now, anyway. :)

You are right. I am Hungarian, and I had to learn Russian from my childhood. I was good at it, but then I finished school, and since then, I abandoned my Russian studies as well. Unfortunately, I forgot most of it. I only remember the alphabet, so I manage to read and write. I also had to learn German, and now living in an English-speaking country. Russian is much easier and nicer as a language. It has a beautiful melody and you can express politeness with conjugation - So not a rude language at all.

I am learning Russian and I think it is a very beautiful language. I think what makes Russian sometimes sound aggressive is the way the intonation rises on the stressed syllable but then drops sharply again after that syllable, sometimes it can sound threatening to foreigners ears.

[@JohnGillikin-gs4yb]

I concur. German, which I do not speak, sounds almost hostile, I believe. Russian, which I have been teaching myself for over a year now, sounds rhythmical, almost like ottava rima or the bob and wheel prsody o GM Hopkins

[@darkjedi74]

I hear similar things said of German, that it’s aggressive and harsh sounding as I do Russian. I don’t think it applies to either one. Some of that perception I think boils down to the way the languages are presented from Hollywood. Let’s face it, both countries have had adversarial relationships with the U.S. over the years, and I think Hollywood has taken liberties at times to make the language sounds even more harsh. Especially anything involving Nazis or Hitler.

First of all, you are sweet. About Russian, I have listened to it a lot and read even more in the last couple of years, and I can understand quite a bit now. What helps is my native language, Serbian, which is broadly similar, but words the Russians use are often archaic in my language, or have acquired different meanings, etc. You ceartainly cannot understand much on the first try, you have to think, but more you listen to, easier it is. Bad side of such a passive approach is that you do not practice any speaking. The language is very soft and emotional. I am at loss why some westerners find it rough sounding; I could understand someone saying that for German or English, or my own language even.

[@kalagasvkalaga7441]

This impression could be because of russian speaking people's english pronunciation sounds very rude. it's true. Some young people are more persistent about learning phonetics and their english pronunciation is much better. But mostly russian speking people don't care about this. The same, there're some "hard" and "strange" very specific russian pronunciation for foreigners. It's much easier and better when languages are learned at a young age.

[@daseladi]

@@yuliafrik2474 Well, dunno, I have seen many commenting how Russian sounds rude or brutal, etc. to them. Could that be due to the years of negative roles of Russians in Holywood films and other forms of propaganda?

I just came across this. I learned Russian when I was in the US Army and afterwards ended up working with Russian-speaking immigrants for about 30 years. I also spent six months working in Russia. One of the huge differences between Russian and English is intonation. After a few years of working with immigrants a Polish colleague worked with me to improve my intonation in Russian so that my clients would not only hear me but believe what I was saying. It was hard for me, because it does sound rude to Americans. Once I got it, comprehension improved on both sides. The funny thing is that after a conversation with my clients, my American colleagues would be horrified at how we "yelled" at each other and ask me what was wrong. I'd be shocked and explain that there was nothing wrong, that it was a simple, agreeable conversation. I can go back and forth easily now and the intonation changes with the language. I never thought of Russian as agressive or harsh as some people do. The funny thing is that it is often the "soft sounds," that slip foreigners up rather than the "hard sounds." When I lived in Russia, I learned Russian романсы (как на пример Не уезжай ты мой голубчик и Утро туманное), which I'd never heard before and fell in love with. Now I have a whole group of them I sing. Needless to say, I love the language.

I find this to be an interesting video! Most of these I either hadn't heard of, or have, and didn't know they speak Russian! I _did_ know that Merkel speaks Russian, presumably because she grew up in East Germany when it was still a satellite of the USSR. Also, at 5:40, you asked why so many foreigners think Russian is an "aggressive language". As a non-Russian (I am from the USA), I would guess that this has something to do with Hollywood and how, in many Hollywood movies, most of the Russians are bad guys, whether it be the KGB agents of spy movies, or the boxer of _Rocky_ _IV,_ or even the mind-controller of _Black_ _Widow._ This is the same with Germans and the German language, except with Nazis of World War II movies instead of communists. Lastly, you asked why I am interested in the Russian language. Like some of these celebrities, I also want to know a lot more about the culture of Russia, which is just as well, since, as mentioned in the previous paragraph, Hollywood does not do a good job at teaching Russian culture.

Ashton, aggressive? Really? Trevor Noah does a Russian accent in one of his stand up routines where he portrays it as quietly menacing, which is a little bit closer to what we are used to from Hollywood portrayals. I do think Russian is a beautiful language and I find it’s mostly spoken rather softly, although the intonation range can go much higher than American English and there are times when it can sound a little shrill and hysterical to American ears, especially if a woman is speaking and she is arguing passionately about something. Even the question intonation can sound very exaggerated compared to English. But in general, I wouldn’t call it aggressive at all. I think Ashton was trying to be funny and the joke fell a little flat to anyone with any passing familiarity with the language. Also, I imagine there are a vast number of regional accents and differences that I wouldn’t even be able to detect as a nonnative.

If people learn a few phrases in Russian, it doesn’t mean that they speak fluently, unfortunately, I should say ,Russian language sounds very aggressive. I am living in USA almost 50 years and working as a registered nurse . Sometimes I was in trouble,because, when I was giving some comments or instructions to my patience, it sounds to them ,very aggressive and people complain about me to my administration.I do have a very heavy Russian accent.😢 So was Ayn Rand, great America writer,with very strong Russian accent, until the day she passed away

Absolutely not,Russian is very soft. He didn't hear Georgian or Armenian:) ( I am Georgian❤)

Кейт Бэкинсэйл чуть дальше после того, как её спрашивают о знании русского языка, говорит, что она его изучала аж со средней школы. И продолжила в высшей школе и университете. Говорит достаточно чисто, не очень хорошо выговаривает некоторые звуки вроде 'р' или "ж". Видимо мало практики.

the bruce willis clip didn’t sound like him, which gave away it wasn’t him. it was good that you noted that after the clip. i was going to check it out because you can tell something was off, like a deep fake video.

Guillermo marinata best and natalia oreiro 👍 his decision to have Russia 🇷🇺 citizenship and his second family said it was fine.

You have to say: "In which he spoke Russian" not "In which he spoke IN Russian"

[@richardgallegos5624]

in Los Angles there are a lot of Russian speakers going back generations, many are mixed race so they don't all have Russian names
