One of the reasons why you can’t understand Russian natives is because Russians shorten the words. For instance, you’ve learnt the word магазин and then you hear a native saying: Я иду в магаз. And you don’t understand them simply because you don’t know that it’s the same word, just shortened. Магазин - магаз.
