Russian Language

I'm considering taking some classes and learning some Russian. How hard is it in relation to other languages like French, German, and Spanish?

i'm not too sure about the german alphabet, but the russian alphabet is totally differnet from the one we use.  which is also the one french and spanish use.  russian also has a much different grammar style than english and is harder to get accustomed to than spanish/french.

i speak spanish and have just started looking at russian.  its definetly more difficult to learn but by no means intimidating.
