I can understand Polish and Czech languages. I can't say I do understand everything - course not, but I definitely understand the main things. I have never learned those languages, BTW. I also have never learned the Ukrainian one which I understand on about 90%.
P.S. If you have problems with Russian, the English subtitles will do the trick for you
When I say that the Russian TV show about mafia is very realistic, I mean it literally. The arrested guy is in the news police report a major of
Russian police Spetsnaz. He was starring as a member of the brigade in the mentioned TV show. He has got caught with drugs and got a lifetime in prison for that. Such an irony
