People who can translate between English and Russian have more opportunities because their in such few numbers.
People who can translate between Spanish and English are a dime a dozen, which is why most people who speak both languages end up working service jobs.
I get that. But my point is people learn a language because they need it or because it’s a hobby. In either case the difficulty is irrelevant.
I also never understood the idea of learning languages based on the number of speakers. You’re not going to talk to millions of people. And you will find enough people that don’t speak English anyways.

They are not two of the hardest languages to learn, and just because something is difficult is not a reason to avoid doing it.
I thought that was Icelandic
There is no “hardest” language.
It all depends on a lot of stuff but one very important part is what language you already speak.
Learning Germanic languages like Icelandic is easier if you speak a Germanic language like English and especially one of the Nordic languages.
Learning languages that are not related to your own language is usually harder.

Russian and Ukrainian are not two of the hardest languages to learn.
You clearly have no idea what you’re talking about.
Name also checks out.
which language is an investment when you don’t need it?
