Lately I was thinking about picking up learning Russian, but

just one good reason?

>>78933573
There's this thing called literature. Damn good cinema too.

>>78934951
You can sit in 2ch.hk

soviet cinema, literature

slavic languages wont get you anywhere

>>78934997
That's a bad reason.

there is like 300 million native russian speakers
it's all up to you how you utilize it

>>78935040
Best actually.

>Lately I was thinking about picking up learning Russian, but what would be an actually good reason?
You could speak to your grandfather.

Russian community pretty closed. This can be interesting for "western" people.

Believe me, there is no practical reason, it will be purely for your own entertainment, most likely nothing work or travel related.

Entertainment: Soviet cinema, classic Russian literature, news/other media and just generally better understanding of Russian mentality, opinions of people (which you shouldn't care about anyway) and I can't really think of anything else.

It's not worth it.

>know 2 languages
>work as translate bot

what do you mean by 'closed'?

>>78935349
No communication with English community.

This is western creation for english speaker people. We forgot about hardbass in 2005.

>>78935784
I understand.

I hear they got many books about rocket science.

>>78933573
you could join the russian military? I guess thats it really. If you want to become a Russian citizen you can be in the army for 5 years.

Why the fuck would anyone want to do that?

Russian people are among the best personality-wise in the world, never listen to selfhating pricks, they are as good as BLM or sjw

C чeгo бы мнe, — cкaзaл Aгeнт, —
Cклoнятьcя пpeд тoбoй?
Tвoй мacтepплaн нe тaк хopoш,
Tы пapeнь нeбoльшoй.
Хoть в мacкe ты, хoть бeз нee —
Baжнeй coвceм нe тo.
Я - ЦPУ, и Пaвeл — мoй,
Tы cвязaн, ты — никтo.
Taк oн cкaзaл, тaк oн cкaзaл,
Из ЦPУ aгeнт.
И caмoлeт в тoт дeнь yпaл,
И выживших в нeм нeт.

what if you already have citizenship?

I think Russia will surprise the world and be an emergent power in the 21st century. In this way, opportunities will exist for knowing Russian and Cyrillic. This being said, you could always get a job as a teacher.
