Swearing in other languages besides the mother tongue is ceaselessly amusing.

Allows the re-ignition of a Soul Lantern at the expense of another, or alternatively, lights a path from the severed soul to their lantern, aiding them in their resurrection.
Requirements: 1 pouch / 1/2 pouch, applied to the corpse in question as well as the living sacrifice, taking 1 hour to prepare. Requires the surface area of the target corpse to be at least 20% intact.
A ritual to repair broken equipment, items, and other gear. Can also create entirely new gear, as per a schematic or blueprint. Requires "feeding" of ability magic energy to function.
Requirements: 1/2 pouch, applied to level, static surface, takes 30 minutes to prepare. Requires 4 square metres.
Area of effect raises ten-feet tall walls of blue flame in a design designated by the ritualmaster. Only effective barrier is the flames themselves, and they do not require the traditional necessities for flame, fuel, oxygen etc. Can be used underwater, in high-oxygen environments. The flames cannot start new fires, though they will burn like regular flames if they come into contact with something directly.
Requirements: 1/4 pouch, applied to any surface (must match the surface of the target area), takes 10 to 20 minutes to prepare. Requires half of a square metre.
A ritual which summons a being that reaps the target designated by the ritual. A summoning spell, woe be to those who err when attempting the cast this ritual. The smallest of mistakes can spell utter disaster.
Requirements: 1/100 to 1 pouch, applied to any surface, takes 15 minutes to prepare. Requires 1 square metre.
A ritual that employs and activates all the rest of Broggan's rituals simultaneously. Devilishly difficult to prepare, requiring days to properly organize, it is nevertheless, a potential game-changer when used properly.
Requirements: 6 pouches, applied to ritualmaster, takes at least 72 hours to prepare assuming presence of all necessary components. Requires 90% of the ritualmaster's body.
Best way to learn aside from total immersion would probably be a systems based approach, where you start by acquainting yourself with the phonology of the language, as well as its written form, and once you can reliably identify its writing and reasonably approximate the sounds, then start compiling a phrasebook, with the goal of growing your vocabulary bit by bit as you go, with basically zero pressure. The grammar rules of the language should be the last thing a learner focuses on, because it's the part you need other people to help practice. That being said, full immersion is still the best method there is. But barring that, I'd recommend letters, phonology, vocabulary. Not an expert or a language teacher, just the way that makes sense in my head. @Xandrya
One neat thing about the languages you mentioned in that Portuguese and Russian share phonological characteristics, so they sound almost like the same language at times to a non-speaker.
