>>4241290I'm planning on learning a Slavic language and am not sure which to choose, figure this is as good a thread as any. Russian is my top choice because it is widely spoken but Russia itself is a dump. Also considering Polish, Czech, and Serbian/Croatian. Czech countryside and forests are beautiful and close to Western European countries. What do you Slavs recommend? Which one has the highest degree of mutual intelligibility or at least makes learning others the easiest? Should I start with Russian and go from there? Input greatly appreciated.
