2017-04-21 at 3:23 AM UTCLighten up. Did you hear then sorry about the man who taught himself Russian based off of guess work? He used no references or tutorials and learned a significant portion of the spoken and written language with essentially no knowledge of it outside of news clips and media coverage.

what does this even mean
what mmQ posted is essentially how children learn their first language - they infer meaning from tone and body language, then as they learn specific words, apply them like puzzle pieces to decode more complicated concepts.
it's entirely possible and may be easier for some people to learn this way - I would suggest though that it's easier to learn a first language that way than if you already know one (ie. you know English and are trying to learn Russian) because once you learn a language it structures your thought processes; instead of translating abstract ideas into Russian you're translating English concepts into Russian... You're not just translating words or ideas, you're also translating ways of interpreting and storing information.
I'll come back and rewrite this in a more sensible way later/my head's all over the place right now -

Based off of what mmq said he isn't in russia as the only russian he sees are in news clips and media coverage on the internet. Meaning he isn't surrounded in the language in his everyday life.

Right. So he wasn't surrounded or immersed in Russian culture and still MASTERED the language.
