where does it say he complains about language and won’t learn it? he’s been there for like a few months, learning a language takes time (especially if you’re dumb as this guy)
Huffman has no prior military experience, DeAnna said, adding that his limited training was conducted in Russian. She suggested the language barrier has made her husband particularly unprepared for the horrors of combat.
Ok, he didn’t, his wife did. This was an important part of the article for me, the oh gosh training for Russian military is in Russian.
I did start learning a bit of Russian once as I was dreaming of riding the Transsiberian Railway once in my life. Russian is quite different from what I speak (German, English). I just wanted to be able to read signs and say things on a "I thirsty where bar? Beer! " level.
Btw. regarding that dream - I gave it up forever. I’ll probably go for a summer beach party, when crimea is Ukrainian again. Even if they have to roll me along the beach in a wheelchair when I’m really old.
I hear that! you’ll have an easier time with any Slavic language if you start with Russian though. I don’t think I’ve met a slavic speaker without at least a passing understanding of Russian. now, culturally, you might get some hate… lol
Ukrainians almost all seem to understand Russian from what i can tell… they’re pretty close! maybe on second thought, ditch Russian and use Ukrainian as the lingua franca lol. I wonder how far we’d get in, like, Slovenia with that
He would expect people to learn English before arriving in the US so the inverse should also be true. And yeah learning Russian is hard, but that’s his problem. It’s not like he had to leave in an emergency, the threat that he was experiencing is entirely fictional.

yeah and even if we were trying our hardest for 3 months to learn Russian, our wives would probably still say the same thing right

nowhere in the article does it say that he expects immigrants to America to learn English before coming. why are you lying???
( is that even a thing chuds commonly believe?? learning is what matters, poor English is applauded above no English. source, been there )
this article is ridiculous and outlandish enough, why are you all fabricating details?
