Fact: Before the October Revolution speaking Russian was seen as bydlo and stupid in Russia.

Same shit was here where speaking Lithuanian was for village retards and speaking Polish or Rusyn was for the kangz and aristocracy.

It's like this with Dutch in 2025

The same goes for aristocrats and nobility from most countries, because they wanted to distance themselves from lower classes. That's extremely cringy btw. Imagine a group of rich pompous retards living today and insisting on speaking english or some other lingua franca because they don't like the sound of local language. Thank God for nationalism. Total Feudalist Death.

>>212267183 (OP)
No, lol, everyone spoke Russian

Here in Ireland, English is seen as too common, Irish as too rural. Hence for the elite, focused around a small area of Dublin around Trinity College, the Freemason Lodge and the Government buildings, national museums and libraries the main language you will hear spoken is French

>>212267183 (OP)
It wasn't dude, idk educate yourself or something. There were pochvennichestvo and that slavophils vs zapadniks conflict

>>212267400
The entire aristocracy was german lol

>>212267183 (OP)
kek isnt this exactly how the ukranian language arose later too?

>>212267183 (OP)
Dumb Bolshevik psyop. You would have been right if you were talking about so called Peter """the Great""" and his period, but the mystical Slavophiles in mid 19th century Russia revived Russian as the main language even of the aristocracy. It's part of a process to syncretise Russia's semi feudal nature with emerging nationalist antics and it began right after the Napoleonic Wars. I imagine the Tsardom might still be around if the Decembrists won, but they never had a chance. Shame.

>Russians itt seething and denying reality meanwhile everyone else freely admits their own countries’ nobility spoke differently from the commoners and it was the norm in Europe

>>212267183 (OP)
True, and it still holds true: young rich people are all bilingual and the wealthiest children either learn russian as their second language or don't learn it at all. I wonder why there are so many coping and seething ITT.
>>212267303
Stfu bydlo. I bet you're some Belarusian serf and I'm more Polish than you.
>>212267400
Stop having sex with Turkish men Sasha.

>>212268222
They seethe because it's still the norm in russia but they come from poorfag backgrounds. I started to be educated bilingual too, until my family got somewhat poorer.

>>212268222
It was true in Russia too but not "until the end of the Tsardom" idiot. In the 19th century European aristocracies largely acclimated to local people in fact.

>>212268356
Sasha ancient Russians had sex with Mongol men and not with Turkish men, just stop being so traitorous.

>>212268072
No, majority was Russian and they spoke Russian

>>212268356
Why are you replying to ilyushka? She's a notorious schizo

>>212268391
>>212268424
Sasha I don't live in Germany YET, stop draft dodging and having sex with Turkish men.

Russian language even today considered bydlo tier, not prestigious at all.
Putin had to ban shop signs in other langauges a few weeks back LMAO

>>212268494
cuck's obsessed

>>212268494
Funny because in ukraine and belarus russian is elite tier while local languages were always bydlo

>>212268602
We aren't a nation, we are Russians ourselves.
Ukraine however on butthurt propelleth their nakhryuk into prestige out of such an immense resentment and hatred that it broke all the lawes of peasant histoirie of it.

Reminder Ruthenian (proto-Belarusian/Ukrainian) used to be the literary language of Lithuania before Polish.
>>212268602
Do Turkish men talk to you in russian when they fuck you Sasha?

>>212267183 (OP)
Apparently, highly-educated Russians will speak English with each other, since it's seen as a marker of intelligence and upward social mobility.

>>212268494
I am calling Lukashenko right now to stop your cuckoldry because you are disrespecting bulbastan to unsurmountable levels, you can be a VPNigger all you want but the KGB will find you and will change your fetish in to BDSM by force.

>>212268778
I hate how our soyteens do that with English, they even speak this strange ebonics creole of inserting English words every second Lithuanian word, seems like you are speaking to some pretentious retard.

>>212268778
Yes, I can comfirm. Sometimes it's also French or Italian even.

>>212268785
I operate strictly within the confines of the governmental policy.

>>212268828
We do that in English de temps en temps.

>>212267183 (OP)
i've heard educated russians would speak french to each other. That is so bizarre and cringe. why french anyway

>>212268785
It's a jeet or a latinx, don't engage. Better pay attention to Sasha dodging draft in Serbia and having gay sex with Turkish men.

>>212268868
it doesnt make sense how much the english used french despite hating the french

>>212268880
They wouldn't, they spoke Russian

>>212268894
How do I know it's even the real Sasha? Romanian likes to pretend to be him because he secretly wants that boipussy but he will never admit it.

>>212268894
I am Latinx on a mission to insemenate the Russian lands to establish a bond within the BRICS.

>>212268880
I'd say now it's 70% English, 25% French, 5% Italian. French is the choice because France has the most upscale resorts in Europe and the two other major European languages are way less appealing due to the associations with autism and poverty respectively.

>>212268947
Idk. But I'd fuck Sasha too, it's so sad he has sex only with Turks.

>>212269005
Respectively to which?
You didn't name the poverty language.

>ilyushka can't stop dreaming about having sex with turks and projecting
wild how it's gene coded in the ukrainians to be bred by turks, is this why they all look like churkas?

>>212269072

>>212269072
Sasha I only dream about sex with you but sadly you let only Turks to fuck you.
>>212269059
The poverty language is Spanish. Italy is way holds way more prestige and its resorts are more upscale.

>>212267400
Wrong. Even Tolstoi and Turgenew make fun about it in their novels

>>212269191
The passion for French phrases is a common ailment of the Krutogorsky ladies and girls. The girls will gather, and their first condition is: "Well, mesdames, from now on we won't speak a word in Russian." But it turns out that they only know two phrases in foreign languages: permettez-moi de sortir and allez-vous en
- Mikhail Saltykov-Shchedrin

>>212269272
Sasha how do you say "fuck me" in Turkish?

>>212267183 (OP)
Stupid subhuman nigger, please
Just shut the fuck up

>>212270622
>t.

>>212267183 (OP)
Y'all retarded, spouting the same idées reçues over and over again.
Russian literature is as accurate description of life in Russian Empire as anime in modern Japan, i.e. not accurate at all.
People spoke French, because it was a more refined language with all the terms and idioms ready-available, only some parvenus would prefer speaking it because it was prestigious. Before the language got finely chiseled like marble, it was simply difficult to express certain thoughts.
>>212268222
Happened in most countries.
>>212268778
>highly-educated
no such things only posho nomenklatura offsprings types
>>212268072
Wrong again. People got married w/ Germans because they had a plethora of little duchies and what-not, meaning that whatever backwards shithole your spouse was from, they were still legit nobility.
Y'all pretty much just fell right into the Soviet propaganda.

>>212271396
>overusage of y'all
>what not
I am going to start implying

>>212271483
Hol up
Hol up
Yu be sayin that dis nigga would sit on yt incel boy website defendin Russia?

>>212268602
It's the opposite, whenever there is some video with bydlo behaviour people note that it's in russian
>>212268675
Wrong too, it were russians who pushed their chauvinistic "speak human language" opinion in the past.

>>212271483
I don't really give a shit, potatohead, got something to say that relates to the matter and not the words?

>>212271609
regardless, Ukrainian is no longer seen as bydlo language. nationalistic ressentimental zeal is a powerful tool that could and has transformed Ukrainian into something that is impenetrable to Russian taunts
>>212271666

Pushkin wrote most of his books in French first.
