Nope, heard it's very difficult to learn?

If you're not familiar with grammatical cases (as I wasn't when I started), it can be hard to speak well even if you're good at memorizing vocabulary. At the same time, I tried to learn Arabic and found it much, much harder than Russian.

No kidding, man. Arabic grammar is a true killer.

I know a few Russian words, largely thanks to The Hunt for Red October.
I learned some very basic Russian a long time ago, more than a decade ago as well.
