Does the Russian language sound the least Slavic?

[sevruk]

I mean, literary Russian sounds different even from other East Slavic languages, not to mention Western and South Slavic languages

There are fewer fricative sounds in Russian than in other Slavic languages, with the exception of Bulgarian. This is why Bulgarian has a kind of a similar sound to Russian.

Russian sounds like Slavic Portuguese to me

The answer is no. Especially as Russian springs to mind first when thinking about Slavic language to many.

Russian Russian linguists, some of them say that very archaic features of Proto-Slavic are preserved in the Russian language, the accentology may be borrowed in some way from the Balts and Finns (including Vodian), and the participles - from southern Bulgarians (Church Slavonic). For me, any Slavic language that I don't understand is music. Even Polish, where there are a lot of sibilant vowels. It sounds very funny and disposes. I believe that the Proto-Slavic language was a very beautiful language.

Many fricative sounds are probably borrowed from Germanic languages, for example, the sound [f] is absent in the Old Russian language. I also want to lose the participles. Old Russian has no participles, there are a lot of them in literary Russian - it's annoying when you have to insert literary participles instead of the Old Russian mat.

Modern Russian language differs a lot from the popular Russian dialects of the past, it's the systematized language of Pushkin and Lomonosov.

All Slavic languages have a certain similar vibe to me.
