How many Russian users speak English?

Post by Fred »

Please just reply with a simple message if you do.

Alexey, for those that don't, perhaps cross post this to the Russian section so we can differentiate those that don't and those that just didn't answer :-)

I had a veri high opinion of my English (soviet education), but then tried to Skype... :-(
No practice - no understanding, just set of word.
Ask simple questions in English please.

I voted "like a native" (because I am) so that I could see the results! Interesting! And yes, I'd gathered that, though I've had a few google translate PM conversations all the same :-)

And yes, LOL @ poll results for a poll asking about a language in the language it's asking about. Probably didn't think that through too well ;-)

Therefore majority of answers "More than a little" and not one "nothing". :)

Exactly! I should have asked it in Spanish to level the playing field LOL :-)

I guess just grep the database for .ru emails and divide total from above with that number for the real answer.
