If yes, how’s it going? What do you like about it? What don’t you like? What challenges are you encountering? How are you approaching it?
I ask because my partner and i both decided last year we would start doing a little language learning in our spare time, and it’s been quite nice to have that “back to school” feeling again after so many years.


Yeah, there are quite a few examples of that but I can’t think of any other ones off the top of my head right now.
Рюкзак, штаб (or генштаб) and штурм come to mind, at least from the limited vocabulary i’ve learned so far.
Yeah, those are good examples. Шлагбаум is another one from German.
That is indeed a German loanword but I actually had to look it up because i didn’t know what the word meant in German. Apparently it’s only used in some regions of Germany. We call it “Schranke” instead in the region where i live.
