Этот трудный русский язык

Dear Russian learners,

what aspects of the Russian language do you find most difficult?

I would have to say verbal aspect too... and then after that, the cases.

Believe it or not, I speak Finnish and Estonian, which are much harder languages (14+ cases), but because I have never actually lived in Russia, Russian is much harder for me...

That'll be comforting to me when I take up Finnish, but to tell you the truth, I find Russian easier than German, and that only has 3 usable cases (genitive is almost obsolete, and wasn't really taught in any of my German college courses.)
