Can basic Russian be learned just by talking to a proficient speaker?
I am seriously interested to learn Russian but haven't yet been able to start on my usual apps. I just watch learning videos on YouTube at times and have a passing familiarity with the alphabet.
In other words, I am at approximate zero level, and this is my question: if I simply start talking to regular Russian speakers at this stage without any prior exposure, am I likely to pick up anything?
It's not something I've ever tried before, so what do you think? Can it work?

We can try to talk if you want, and you will see. I think, it may go with different results for different learners. You just need to try.

Thanks Katerina, I hope it works that way. Since Aud has been kind enough to offer, I'm definitely going to try. I grew up with a lot of translated Soviet period literature and have generally been interested in Russian as one of the major global languages over a very large region

It will work if you have another language in common with your Tandem partner (English for example). I learned German so. I watched a video for beginners and found a Tandem partner, who learns Russian and is a German native speaker. So we tried to use only these two languages, sometimes a bit of English and it was awkward in the beginning, but I think it helped me to progress faster. And don't forget that you should continue learning by yourself a lot =)

I think you should at least take a look into the gramatical rules about verb conjugation and declensions
otherwise, I would say it is possible to learn by immersion, but very VERY painful to understand stuff without any notion of the grammatical rules
удачи
