The hardest part of understanding native Russian speakers as a learner isn't accent or something like that, it's just the speech rate. Russians may speak quickly and reduce or drop some syllables, particularly in informal settings.

I'll hear in a dream
Until the morning
I won't close my eyes
Not finally forgiving
All that you'd have with me
You aren't sleeping
As me now
In subway at midnight
In a round dance of lights
I'm watching on your shadow in a dream again
A crazy night, spended with her
And it's coming another day
And when we'll see each other again
A night wind will quiety sing about his business
And neglecting for a moment what is love
We will starting together
refren:
Dacing togher, weird dances
We'll wait for a day, won't say goodbye
And at night we'll start
Weird dances
Dance under the rain
In a underground passages
You'll forget the question
But I remember the answer
Without each other we won't die

Slow learners are inefficient these days when everything evolves, new technologies are popping up like mushrooms, projects life cycles is becoming more critical as lengthy time to market could easily kill a project or a start up.
It's hard to effectively utilize these guys, they are usually fine at doing monotonic stuff over and over again but that's it. Often there aren't much positions that are suitable for that type of people.
Lazy people are just as efficient as slow learners who work overtime. Fuck them.

I don't think that Polish and Russian have that much in common, really. It's just that Russians have no one else to compare themselves to.
Polish is very heavily influenced by German to the point where it's almost a second-language-speaker's interpretation of a Slavic dialect.

Why would an oligarch take the non-Russian wife? Rich people go for slavic woman.

>I don't think that Polish and Russian have that much in common, really.

Go to /int/ - > archive and search for "ruslan" threads
there were few links on courses available online & for free
also having a book is a good thing, I don't see a reason why shouldn't you get it

Don't buy it unless you really want a hard copy. Just torrent it or download it on b-ok.org

I'm liking the book so far, explains things well
