You have a point. Spanish and Catalan is more similar... but after learning Russian would that make Catalan easier? Thanks for the reply.

It'd be amazing to say: "My Russian's better than your English" to a Spanish speaker, though. I have C2 in Spanish - how long would it take to get C2 in Russian? I bet not many English natives have Spanish and Russian at C2.

When does one become happy with language learning? =]

But then you don't have to read and write a language to speak it. Hmm.

What's better? Learning Spanish and Catalan or Russian? How long would it take to learn Catalan and Russian? I guess with a language you never really stop.
