Russian is not exotic although more complete and allows for more articulate
expression than most other languages, which in tern makes it extremely
complicated language to learn (even for native speakers). I have no idea
where your lawyer friend pulled the 3 different alphabets from since I am
fluent in Russian and only know of one (alphabet).
In regards to the county: it's a miserable, corrupt and a racist place that
teaches 18yo kids how to kill, where pensioners (those WWII veterans you
spoke about) struggle to survive and resort to look for left-over's in
rubbish bins. They rather exists like they have in the past, behind the iron
curtain ignorant of everythign and everyone instead of evolve with the rest
of the world. Not to mention all those mail order brides… Anything to get
away from that hell hole. Besides that, yeah, it's a great place.
