    Another British Mr Bald, but with hair....How come they didn't kick you out too? I don't think you quite exude the charisma or cheeky attitude of Mr B. You need to mix in talking with more Babooshkas, so you are not in the creepy young girl zone. Perhaps wear some sunnys, instead of 1950s glasses. Give your hair a no 1 buzz, die the beard black or dark brown and wear some jeans and t shirts, perhaps work out a little, and get some Wodka in ya. Then you can be Bald type 2.👍

    In fact, everyone learned English at school and somehow they speak it. They just are not sure of their English, they are ashamed of their bad English. Well, it's easier to say "No" if you just don't want to communicate with a stranger, especially a foreigner. You know, we have seen little good from the Anglo-Saxons, so the attitude is wary of such people. It doesn't concern you, Sam. We know that you are our man).

    Russian people are quite closed. But when you get to know them better, they are very soulful and sincere. We are used to the fact that we are constantly sold on some kind of crap, sellers of all sorts of unnecessary rubbish, politicians, propagandists. It is easier for us to answer a foreigner's question about the knowledge of the language "No" to end the conversation. Not because people don't really know the language. But on the other hand, yes, knowledge of English after school leaves much to be desired). You see, if you don't really need a language, you won't learn it. How many good films, songs, literature can be given by modern English-speaking culture? Do we want to emigrate there? Are we welcome there? No, that's why the language is not needed.

    Anglo Saxons don't really exist as such in britain the Saxons were Germans invited in as mercenaries that then went to war with the kings that brought them in. Then you had the vikings take the entire east of England. Finally you had the French vikings conquer britain entirely. Anglo Saxon is a bit of a misnomer. At any rate it's the british government that's the problem, they are waging war on Russia and the british people.

    Россиян нельзя спрашивать "говорите ли вы на английском". Мы воспринимаем эту фразу буквально и всегда отвечаем "no", даже если знаем английский язык. Скорее это связано со стеснением и страхом, что, ответив "yes", мы не сможем понять некоторые слова, за что потом будет стыдно. Если хотите поговорить с россиянами на английском языке, то лучше спросите "I'm sorry, can't you help me?". Тогда россияне будут пытаться вам помочь даже с плохим знанием английского языка. Спрашивать "говорим ли мы на английском языке" самая большая ошибка иностранцев)))

    In larger cities it is very easy to live a normal life, run a business and do everything locals do. I live in St Petersburg and many Europeans and Americans live here without Russian, and I speak so poorly that everyone suggests switching to English. Moscow is the same or even more so. I have 3 businesses I started, two are small and one is fairly large before covid but it is incoming tourism, so that has been inactive since Covid started, with 68 employees. I know several people, attractive women, who have moved here, one is a talented jazz singer and the other is an actor in stage, TV and cinema. I have a very active social and cultural life far more expansive than back home in California. The museums, clubs, opera, ballet, jazz clubs, rock clubs, 500 English style pubs, 600 beautiful parks etc. The cost of living is about 1/10th.

    Actually it’s quite rude and uncool to film a random stranger. They probably know at least some English, but are caught unprepared by the question and can’t switch their brains to English mode in a couple of seconds. They may not have used any English for a long time. The question, “Do you speak English ?” is a bad one, because it’s yes or no. Many good but not perfect speakers of English have a propensity to answer “No” to save perceived embarrassment. Better approach would be to say in tourist phrase book Russian, “Izvaneetye pozhalusta,” Do you know where I can get my hair cut? (In English). Do not ask “Do you speak English?” This gives them a few more seconds to plug their English language brain in. They will also feel that they are helping you. But I don’t know how to do with the camera. People worldwide wide are suspicious of and sick of surveillance.

    Hello Sam, I think that one can live in Russia without knowing the Russian language, but you will never really "arrive" in this country if you don't speak the local language. You should also familiarize yourself with the respective culture and the know the customs of a country, since this also has something to do with that respect for the country and its people. I myself, as a German, emigrated from Germany to Turkey more than fourteen years ago with my wife, who is of Turkish origin. You can get along more or less with the English language or the German language, but in my experience, real access to people and real friendships are very rare, despite modern technology (translators), if you doesn't speak the same language. However, this is not only valid in Russia or Turkey, its worldwide. It is not for nothing that many "parallel societies" have formed in various countries for this reason, where people practically remain "among themselves"... Thanks for the video🙂

    So, advise to foreigners, don't ask Russians on streets if they speak English. Most of the time you will hear "no" to that. Because we have different understanding of "knowing" language. To us it's almost like you ask us if we are "fluent in English" and rarely someone is. So people will say NO. Also many people are camera shy. They don't want to be on the spot trying their English skills that they are not confident about. They feel like on exam or something. Just skip this question and ask what you actually mean to ask in your language. Bypassers usually try to be very helpful when asked for help, directions and thinds like that unless they really hurry. You just ask the wrong question.

    Сем, ты прекрасен! Полный респект!! А как людей, которые едут в Россию попытаться направить на изучение русского языка!? Иностранцев, конечно. Нам с малых лет в школьную программу вставляли иностранный язык - английский или немецкий, это классика. Я из поколения середины 60-х г.р. Особого внимания инязу многие не обращали внимания. Конец 90-х и меня заставила ситуация на минимальном уровне заниматься английским, чисто по работе. Самоучки. Вопрос - зачем мне нужно изучать другой язык, если я работаю в России? А почему английский язык является международным? Почему?! Почему не идиш или немецкий....французский или китайский...Русский (ах да, сложный и конкретный!)? А почему доллар? Не в обиду, но есть осадочек. Обнимаю, с любовью из России

    English is the international travel language now primarily due to the range of the British Empire covered the entire globe. If you see person from China speaking to a person from Argentina in Norway it is most likely they are communicating in an abreviated English that travelers learn. Far more people speak English than any other language, at least 800,000,000 Chinese, 900,000,000 Indians, 360,000,000 in North America, 200,000,000 EU, plus even British.

    Hi, Sam)) Actually Russian people mostly are shy to speak English because they dont know it well or just know some basics from the school. We often want to help people but without knowing good English we are scared that we wont help but will confuse foreign person so he will be even more lost. So for some people are easier to say NO, I dont speak english to not to be ashamed and not confuse the tourist. I was the same many years ago😄...My English was at the level of upper- intermediate when i was at my 20s and I could write and read ideally, but i was scared to talk to the foreign people because I didnt want to be shamed of my BAD English. I was scared to pronounce the word wrongly or say the sentence or the verb in the wrong tense form (Past simple or Present perfect tense still confuse many people in Russia as we have only one PAST tense🤣) or wrong order. I always wanted to help foreign people to find the right way to somewhere (in St Petersburg we have a lot of tourists) and I could do it but talking to them more than telling the road was a nightmare for me as I thought I could understand nothing (especially US slang or Australian accent as I was learning British). Everything changed after I started traveling in EU and moved to China. I noticed that all foreigners (non native speakers) didnt care about tenses, pronunciation and correct words order so i began to practice my English and stopped being shy or scared to be ashamed😆. Everything comes with the practice🤪

    I think they are ashamed to be on camera and speaking bad English!!! Then the whole world will know! But often I found that people who said that their English is not good, is actually amazing! I met many people in bars! After a few drinks people are more confident. When I came to Russia, I didn’t speak Russian and it was fine.

    Однажды ко мне подошел иностранец и спросил, как пройти до могилы Достоевского. Я так растерялась, что позабыла все английские слова. Самое смешное, что мы только что были в этом месте, и я прекрасно поняла вопрос (а моя знакомая вообще была учителем английского языка, но в тот момент как раз куда-то отошла!), но вспомнить простые фразы, а уж тем более правильно построить предложение, я не могла. А я ведь учила английский не только в школе, но еще несколько лет на разных курсах! Жестами мне все же удалось показать направление. Но это был травмирующий опыт для меня, поэтому, если бы вы задали мне вопрос, касающейся знания языка, я бы ответила однозначно: "No. I don't know".
