Tomasito, you know better what languages I speak.
OK, I can illustrate how close Ukrainian and Russian languages are.
When I was a 9 years old boy, I went to a pioneer camp. Pioneers - it's a sort of Soviet boy scouts. It was a camp from KGB and team leaders there were young lads who were standing at sentinel No1 (Lenin's mausoleum). And of course all of them were Russians.
Me and my brother were speaking Ukrainian with each other. One evening when we were passing a big company of team leaders one of them called me and asked whether I can declaim any poem in Ukrainian. Of course I could. I just read a book of a Ukrainian humorist and liked one short poem so much that learned it by heart. So I started declaiming with as much artistry as I had. All team leaders with no exception where laughing until cry. I was really flattered with their reception. Never had I more grateful audience. At last when one of them gained ability to speak he squeezed through laughter to his pal: "Have you got a word?" "No-o-o-o-o, not a tiny bit" was reply. :?
If that is not enough here is another instance. As a student I went with my studying group to Latvia where we had to do our engineering practice. In Riga - the capital of Soviet Latvia me and my friend went to a book shop. One of the books attracted our attention and we started discussing it in Ukrainian. After a while one of the assistants of the shop says to other assistant in Russian loudly enough that I could hear (of course she was sure that we can't understand): "Look, look - French men". Obviously she did understand nothing of what we were saying and Ukrainian language resembled French to her.
