Listening and Reading

I do not understand what you mean.

Ok Thanks

Speaking ability is attained after you become able to understand what you hear and what you read.

Listening - from ‘isten’; speaking - from ‘speak’.
Good luck!

And, what about writing?

I never thought in a million years I would have learned Russian. But just by using lessons on lingq I have learned many words, and the more you listen, read, and practice; the more natural speaking will become.

It can absolutely help, by helping you connect words to their meaning, sort of by that much exposure to the language. At least that is what I read. However it is significantly more time consuming.

Then you will not learn to speak.
