This guy doesnt know what hes talking I know lots of friends online who are russian who even says hes just speaking out of his ass

It should be understood, repetition and understanding of dead scholars does not help you create new things. It preserves the old things, and puts you into society. To make new things, you need shock, and approval for new, potentially crude things that nonetheless are advancements. This is why the US was, and still is (though it is waning) the idea factory. Because the US is not one culture, and so there has been a little permission for outside the box thinking. The Soviet space and military science programs were similar, in that they functioned inside cloistered mini socities that were encouraged to do this.

Who the hell praises nerds, and looks down on fuhk ups? Nobody does it, mb back in Soviet times ppl were like that , but not anymore

In Russian ― there's alot of usage of known phrases etc. I don't think there's anything in the Languages themselves that is really more or less rich. There are also words that allow for more Sophistication and Humor; like using Nouns as Verbs etc. But it also depends on the place. In some English-speaking places, especially in Britain ― they have a much richer language, than the average American.

All He says about Russian language is fit perfectly with the Hungarian language :)

When I speak in russian, people usually tell me my demeanor and tone change.

I agree with Lex, that Russian has more words and forms for emotions especially suffering. Запой, сушняк, тоска, похоронка, нерукопожатный, погром ...

Lots of Russian here in comments. Awesome) Then most effective way is to learn Russian and then make comparison on your own. Each language has a lack of communication as a native Russian I can tell for sure.

I don't care if I miss out on other cultures. I'm shallow like that.

I am Kazakh. Vast majority of our nation are bilingual. We speak russian and kazakh, and yes. We missing alot not being able to express ourselves in japanese, chinese, korean e.t.c way.

First, it is not the Russian educational system, but the Prussian one that influenced German education. I would say it has downgraded drastically since the collapse of the USSR. Additionally, I don't think it is beneficial to read Tolstoy or Dostoevsky at an early age, as much of their work is difficult to understand. Furthermore, I believe both authors are overrated.

English is the easiest and most dull languages there is

I sould only comment on education that now people don't care about it that much, but he workload is still high

I'm not the best in english, but i watch a lot of videos in both languages, i would say that the re are more diffrences in styles of russian and english way to use words. English is on point, it delivers a message sructured and there's not much room to repurpose the word to mean something else. Russian is used much more like this on other hand, all russians deform the words or flip the meaning of it. I think, i'm not a linguist, it happens becouse russian word building rules are eazier and is used by people all the time to change the words, though i'm not that good in english, but i didn't stumble on anything like this in english content (puns are diffrent thing and they are much more common in english, in russian it's practicly doesn't exist, humor is based on irony) Also russian swearing is something else. There's even a social ad about russian swearing, where diffrent prople from difrent post soviet coutries strugle to comunicate until they start to swear and just curse the object instead of calling them by there name

There is no richer language than Spanish

Who is he talking about in the beginning of the video?

И в России в школах нет нормальных туалетов. Сейчас наверно постепенно их переоборудовают, но изначально в советских школах в туалетах не было перегородок и поэтому дети приучались терпеть, чтобы не справлять нужду на виду у старших учеников или преподавателя. В мальчишечьих туалетах не было перегородок, а в девчачьих были перегородки, но не было дверей на них. И никто никогда не задавался вопросом, почему такое дерьмо. И только с позорным казусом на олимпиаде в Сочи в 2014 я стал над этим задумываться. Приучать к математике на 2 года с опережением - ничего в этом особенного нет. Зато в США любая школа имеет оборудованнный спортивный зал на порядок лучше, чем в самой лучшей российской школе. И в самой школе в России нет кружков, например музыкального, где учатся играть на музыкальных инструментах. Для этого есть отдельные музыкальные школы, и туда ходят учиться по вечерам, но для большинства это более сложный вариант. И так же с художественной школой или театральный кружком

Нет лучшего российского или американского школьного образования, есть финское и сингапурское, они лучшие. Финское более позитивное, человечное, сингапурское более зубрежное

I would never call English a simplistic language. Yes, there are things that are easy, but English conditionals for instance are really really tough. I am a native Russian speaker, not a linguist by any stretch of imagination, but I think where we have just one type of conditional sentence English uses four. And think about articles - the day I realized that you have to take into account whether the noun is countable or uncountable to use either the or a/an in front of it, I went just, Jesus, poor English speakers, they have to do that much processing to be able to communicate! I am not even talking about a bunch of small things, like in English you use either many or much depending on whether the noun is countable or uncountable whereas in Russian you just use one word for both cases...

English native speakers are not aware of how limited their language is compared to other languages. The reason is that it is actually a pidgin language, a mix between Germanic dialects and French. Pidgin languages get rid of complex grammar in order for people from different backgrounds to communicate with each other. Afrikaans, Swahili, Indonesian are another examples of pidgin languages that became simplified for the sake of communication. I'm so glad my native languages are not pidgin languages. It would suck to have such limited possibilities to express oneself.

When he mentioned the rewriting from memory and you should not to make any mistake, god I so hated that tests, it always was so painful. Always was bad at it.

As a Russian who knows English pretty well for years and continues improving language skills and vocabulary I can say English isn't less emotional or less informative. There are a lot synonyms to nouns, adjectives, verbs for example, unique grammar constructions, rules, exceptions. If someone say English is easier than Russian I say hell no. I can agree it's much easier to start speaking English than Russian on some basic levels but if you learn English as native speaker and want be appropriate to it on advanced level you may face much more problems in many aspects than you would in Russian. English is enormously reach language.

Английский великолепный язык для описания и моделирования. Очень много способов точно высказать мысль, так чтобы оно имело форму и направление. Иногда для филосовских или научных разговоров на руссском не хватает такого инструмента. Да, и во многих языках тоже, в частности тюркских языках, не хватает этого аппарата.

I grew up in Bulgaria in the 90s and everything he described about the educational system I experienced the same way. I was crying in bed at night as a kid because I was so scared to go to school the next day and get examined in front of the class on the contents of the entire book (whatever subject the class was in). I once remember my teacher screaming at me and throwing my notebook to the floor because I had written the exercise in purple coloured ink. Purple looks too much like red and red is for teachers only.

BTW. Lex's broken Russian is painful to listen to but he still the attempts to present himself as some sort of fluent Russian speaker.

Who the hell is he talking about in the beginning

The logic of the Russian language has not changed in the last few hundred years. Any native speaker can read very old texts without problems, while, for example, a native English speaker would have trouble understanding Shakespeare. What does the 20th century have to do with the history of the Russian language? All that the 20th century has affected is the disappearance of dialects, thanks to which there is now only one variant of the language worldwide. And the disappearance of several optional letters of the alphabet. That's it. Dostoyevsky. he worked for the government. The same one that oppressed the people of the country, he worked for the Tsar.His book Demons was actually commissioned to fight revolutionary sentiment. Anyone who wants to change anything in his books is a scumbag. In this day and age he would be a propagandist for corporations. Anyone using a language other than their native language thinks more logically.

This is a f ing briliantly put praise of the Russian culture

Explaining emotions- Russian Business communication- English That's it 😎

To my understanding, Germanic languages shifted more towards rationality, science, practicals, and efficiently getting across the function of the sentences. Probably happening as the core point of Europe shifted from the Mediterranean to France and the Germanic realm, particularly as later advances saw the Anglo, Dutch, and Deutsche people get extremely high rates of scientists and great engineering feats with unmatched development in their core regions. The German language developed fittingly to match its people even further from there, perfectly engineered for specific roles and efficiencies, easily broken when done wrong, but incredible at getting the logical point across when used correctly. Similarly the English language followed a similar path to its people, being bound to the children of the British empire and later the American successor. English is a language that has sacrificed much of its nuisances and beauty, scraping back the accessories to leave a simplistic and optimised form, perfectly suited for usage on a vast, international scale, for people who can fill in their own accents, both organically like australia, northern England, or the American south, and introduced from prior mother tongues like Scottish, irish, Australian Aboriginal, and the countless accents for which most users still speak their peoples prior language. Essentially, while much of Europe's languages held onto beauty, adapting its style with the atrocities the people faced, preserving form that had been cultivated often in the same regions of the world for hundreds of generations, and carrying on these styles as they did eventually spread across the world if they ever did so. The german language followed the path of optimisation for becoming the language of science and mathematics, and the English language restructured itself to be a language of purity in the form of a near blank slate, perfectly suited for a much more vastly dispersed yet still interconnected, practical and largely apathetic empire. That’s my take on it at least. Ironically I would say I lack not just the sleep, but also the diction to properly express what I mean. Perhaps, the English language is failing me in my attempts at expressing this, ironically enough.

Russia. Country specializing in rape, murder and alcohol.

That’s a great analysis! As being Russian I can add that Russian language also is more tough in prononciation. There are lots of word with multiple hard consonants in the beginning. In my case, having a stater speech disorder, it is much easier to speak English clearly than Russian

The same in all languages. Same in Chinese, Same in Spanish...etc

Poetic russian be like: BBBBLLLLAAYYAYAYTTTTT KKKKHHHOOKHLIII YYEBANNYY V ROT

Perhaps Lex is not completely comfortable in English. He doesn't have lisp in Russian, but his LISP in English is self inflicted to mask a faint accent he would otherwise have.

I never knew that there was American language. It's English man and the language is beautiful!!!!!! It's a language of Shakespeare. Wtf🤣😅😂🙃

Interesting fact: If you change the word order in a Russian sentence, the meaning will remain pretty much the same. If you change the word order in an English sentence, the meaning will be completely ruined. (Fox ate a bird => Bird ate a fox) That is because in Russian language the forms of the words mainly determine the relationship between 'em, and the order to a much lesser degree. In English words don't change much, but it's very important where you put what in order to not get people confused. ;)

Another Russian here. I'm rather fluent in English, but one thing that I notice about myself when I speak English, I become way more sarcastic. Partly because I've watched House M D a lot an he's one of my fav characters (another one is Avasarala from The Expanse who's also very sarcastic), partly because I find the rhythm of English is much better for that. English isn't more simplistic than Russian, it's just different. Some meanings can't be fully conveyed in English, yes, but such things can be said about Russian too.

I get this .. Bosnian language is like that to.. created in extreme situations throw time. There pure emotion even in roasting comedy.

If russians are so funny then where are all these hilarious russian comedians?

Fo sho Harasho bro!

As a bulgarian native speaker that goes to all Cyrillic languages, which all started from bulgarian language btw, since Bulgaria is the oldest Slavic state. That's why we bulgarians can easily understand most Slavic languages, but they do not ours. That said, i must admit as long as cursing is involved the most colorful one goes to Serbia 😅😅😅

I had a linguistics course while studying for my MA and had to read a horribly long and complex paper co-written by at least a half dozen authors. The whole thing boiled down to one sentence. Languages do best at what speakers do most.

As a russian speaker I wouldn’t agree with point about swearing. It really depends on who you are speaking to. For example, in army or among students in university swearing isn’t special at all, but it’s better not to swear in front of eldery people and women.

English looks like it was designed by a committee that wanted to make it impossible for a non-native to speak correctly but possible to understand anything no matter how badly it was put. Get the wrong words spelled wrong, put them in the wrong order with the wrong tenses and it still makes sense.
