    I grew up thinking that the big 5 were the only romance languages. I'm so happy to have discovered that there's so many more, with communities that are trying to keep them alive.

      The thing is even Spanish and Portuguese are very common to the untrained ear and have such high mutual intelligibility with each other that the more regional you get, they really do feel like just dialects.
      Like if someone told me they were trilingual and those 3 languages were Spanish Catalan and Austurian, i would prob roll my eyes at them.

      i think that's a bit unfair, like as a romanian i can understand a lot of aromanian yes, there is a world in which you may call them dialects but that doesn't mean i can *speak* that way
      obviously, the spectrum is continuous, but it does feel like a different sort of state when you can get what people mean without making an active effort
      even accents that are considered 'thick' my brain tunes into that manner of speaking, but to try to understand italian i have to sort of lock in and continue keeping myself in that focused state

    Spanish also has a neuter gender, it's pretty similar to Asturian pure neuter, it only applies to abstract nouns and it inflects very similar to the masculine so its usually overlooked, but it can change the meaning of a word, for example:
    lo pequeño (neuter) ("the smallness" it references to the atribute of being small)
    el pequeño (masculine) (something/someone masculine who is small)

    As a Sardinian speaker, your segment about Sardinian is very accurate! I am also glad that you mentioned some very important characteristics that many linguistics amateurs on the internet often ignore or don't speak about (mainly, the fact that Sardinian is not one single unified language and that the difference between dialects impacts phonology, grammar and vocabulary. Many people say that Sardinian is the closest Romance language to Latin because but it still preserves the old unpalatalised C's and G's, but this is only true for the Logudorese dialects). Some more characteristics that make Sardinian really unique:
    1) Sardinian is the only language, together with the Balearic dialect of Catalan, whose articles developed from Latin ipse, ipsa. That means that the articles contain an S instead of an L, like in many other Romance languages.
    2) The most important aspect of Sardinian phonology is the so-called paragogic vowel. This is a feature that evolved relatively recently, but it basically means that even if some words might end in a consonant in the written language, they can't end in that consonant in the spoken language. The phenomenon varies depending on how well you can speak Sardinian (people who speak better Italian than Sardinian, tend to use the paragogic vowel systematically with every word, whereas more proficient speakers only use it in set contexts), but it basically means that you have to repeat the vowel of the preceding syllable at the end of the word. This can be often heard with plural forms:
    "Sa domu" (the house) is pronounced /za domu/
    "Is domus" (the houses) is pronounced /iz domuzu).
    Those who can't write Sardinian (which is many people, also due to the fact there is no standardised written language), often but incorrectly write things like "is domusu" for this reason.

    Btw final o in brazilian portuguese is often pronounced [ʊ], or sometimes just [ʷ], or more extremely just straight up going silent.

This system evolved in Sicily into a pattern with 5 stressed vowels (mànu, vèntu, stìddha, còddhu, lùpu) and 3 unstressed vowels (a, i u; in Southern Calabria the pretonic "e" and "o" are preserved: sonaturi vs sunaturi; penzari vs pinzari).
    2) Huge number of loanwords from Italiot Greek (still spoken in some village in Southern Calabria), Norman French, Sicilian Arabic (extinct in Sicily but evolved in modern Maltese), Gallo-italic languages, Iberian languages.
    3) Phonetic features:

    So excited for this video as I’m currently studying Romontsch (Sursilvan) and love to see it represented.
    Yes the reflexive pronouns have morphed into a verbal prefix.
    Something else to note is that the conditional tense is formed differently than other romance languages- the conditional looks like the usual subjunctive imperfect tense and thus they form subjunctive differently.
    Also, the (only?) future tense is formed with vegnir a instead ir/andare/aller or infinitive + avere like in other romance languages, kinda special.
    The prepositions are also somewhat unique, like sin meaning “at”, e.g. the trains in Grischun say “Fermada sin damonda” for stop on request.

  • @franciscoovarela
    @franciscoovarela Месяц назад +2

    Some small corrections/clarification for Portuguese:
    1- I would argue (and linguists too) that word final «o» in European Portuguese is not pronounced like a full /u/ in normal speech, it actually just rounds the previous consonant, so should more accurately be represented as a superscript /w/ in the IPA. It only sounds fully like /u/ when in a diphthong like «io»
    2- The three vowels that you mentioned that are the only ones that appear unstressed in EP may be the most common, but some others can appear unstressed too, and actually the grave accent «`» used to signal that in the past. Examples: inclusive (inclusivè), sozinho (sòzinho), manete (mànete), where /ɛ/, /ɔ/ and /a/ appear unstressed
    3- You are right that /tʃ/ and /dʒ/ are not phonemes, but they appear in consonant clusters in EP not only in loan words as you said, but also in native words. This is a product of stress-timing and often it's so drastic that a vowel in between is no longer detectable in normal speech. Example: testar /tʃtaɾ/, desligar /dʒliɣaɾ/
    4- Rightly mentioned that Brazil is losing/has lost 2nd person conjugations. Additionally, almost all EP speakers have lost 2nd person plural conjugations too, «vós» and its respective conjugations are only used scarcely in the Northern region of the country. It has been replaced by «vocês» and 3rd person plural conjugations like in Brazil.
    5- There are many more contractions than the ones you put up on the screen, but that's understandable since they are a lot. However, you wrote «pràs» (para as) and it's worth noting that this is used exclusively in speech, not in writing, whereas all the other are correct and legitimate words.
    6- The gerund is used by quite a lot of people in Portugal, even if not by the majority, but it's especially dominant in Alentejo, Ribatejo and Algarve regions.

    Very good video overall. I can't comment on the other languages but I'd like to clarify two things about French. The Past Simple in not "historic", at least not in writing. While fully replaced in spoken French, it is still regularly used in writing, especially in formal writing, news articles and novels describing past actions. In writing, it is a much better alternative to the spoken Passé composé, at least for those that educated and know how to use it properly (which unfortunately is not the case for everyone). The other thing is about verbs that use ETRE as their auxiliary to form compound tenses. Those are not specifically verbs of "motion" because verbs like "mourrir" (to die) do not express any motion. Instead, it'd more accurate to say that those verbs that use ETRE as their auxiliary are reflexive verbs, those that perform an action upon themselves, where the subject and object of the sentence are the same person or thing. Some verbs are always reflexive, while others may become reflexive in some context (in which case they'll take on a reflexive pronoun placed before the verb, such as "me, te, se, nous, vous, se"). Verbs that are always reflexive always take ETRE, those that are only reflexive in some contexts will take AVOIR most of the time, and ETRE when they are used in a reflexive manner.

    Hey just a small correction. You talked about the letter î reprezenting ⟨ɨ⟩ in Romanian, however the pronunciation was a bit too high. I checked the wiki and it's a little wrong there too, if you click on the article of the close central unrounded vowel ⟨ɨ⟩, down a paragraph you can see there is a near-close variant that's lower; it's IPA notation is a little different although a little confusing. That's the actual sound of î (and â), despite the wiki not clarifying further.
    There's a channel called Romanian Hub (or you can check any other) that talked about this sound in a video ~7 months ago from now. If you want to jump straight into examples you can skip to 4:00 on his video. And of course â is identically pronounced so same rules apply. No other issue that I could spot.

I think it'd be especially interesting given how the Polynesian languages have evolved due to complete geographic isolation on individual tiny islands scattered throughout the Pacific. There's also a lot of cases of almost creole languages based on the languages of largely European colonizers merging with the native languages, such as the CHamoru language of the Mariana Islands (especially the Guamanian dialect), which for a while was nearly mutually intelligible with Spanish.

However, this is now rare, and it's now generally pronounced /ø/ or /œ/ (in open and closed syllables respectively) in Greek borrowings (such as /ø.zo.'faž/ for "œsophage").
    Also, note that while "bœuf" is /bœf/ and "œuf" is /œf/, plural "bœufs" is somehow... /bø/, and "œufs" is /ø/.

There are people who pronounce them diferently, it's mot considered a mistake but just an accent, usually because of the influence of another language (like Catalá or English). "En general, en español la b y v se pronuncian igual: con [b] bilabial. La articulación labiodental de v solo es espontánea en hablantes valencianos o mallorquines y de zonas de Cataluña por influencia del catalán, y en puntos de América por influjo de las lenguas amerindias." Some people do distinguish between the two sounds because they think it's a mistake not to do it, but that's not true.

      I just noticed this doesn't excuse saying tu fez instead of tu fizeste. Oh well, in the Northeast they say fizesse, which is a valid clipping, st > s is very common cross-linguistically.

    My maternal grandfather was a Walloon (French-speaking Belgian). At one time, I was fairly conversant in French--but I was "tempted away" by German (the language of my maternal *grandmother*, in which I am fluent. Also, I have a good working knowledge of Russian, whose literature attracts me a great deal. That said, I regret not keeping up with French. Your video on the Romance languages is very interesting! PS I now live and work in Japan, and am tangling with the "monster" that is the Japanese language.

    /uj/ isn't a main diphtong of spanish, it only occurs in a few words and some people don't even pronounce them with /uj/
    Also, french "désolé" isn't pronounced /dezɔle/ (at least in the varieties I'm familiar with) but /dezole/, and can represent /ø/ as well as /œ/, as in singular "œuf" /œf/ vs plural "œufs" /ø/, meaning "egg(s)". And the use of "être" as an auxiliary for passé composé isn't restricted to verbs of motion, but is also used for verbs that use reflexive pronouns, as well as some verbs for changes in state that one undergoes involontarily, such as to die, to be born, to fall, etc.

    Small corrections with romanian:
    At 44:48 you showed a declension table for the word for ” meat ” , but the dative/genitive is usually ” cărnii ” with a definite article since , although it is tehnically also ” feminine singular genitive/dative without a definite article ” , it also shares its form with the feminine plural nominative form, which can be a bit confusing.
    You also didn't mention the helping preposition ” pe ” used to express the accusative case for animate nouns or special constructions.
    At 45:17 you said ” pronouns in the accusative and genitive cases ” , but , as was shown on-screen, it was actually the accusative and dative ones.
    Lastly, this is more of a nit-pick, but the polite pronouns are actually more numerous that those shown and also there are certain dative/genitive forms for both these polite pronouns and also the emphatic ones.
    Ex: ” dumitale ” , ” dumneasa-dumisale ” (colloquial) , ” dumneamea ” (jokingly), ” dumneei ” (rarer form for dative/genitive feminine singular polite) , ” însemi ” (emphatic 1st person singular feminine dative/genitive) etc.
    Still, I think your video was amazing and was really in-depth for the allocated time for each language. Good job honestly!

      Small correction but ”însemi” doesn't really exist. This is a very common mistake but as you said, it should follow the pronoun and gender so for masculine it's "eu însumi/tu însuți/el însuși/noi înșine/voi înșivă/ei înșiși" and for feminine "eu însămi/tu însăți/ea însăși/noi însene/voi însevă/ele înseși or însele"

    I used to learn French on my own for a long time, but it is a very hard and thankless language. I could write, read, and speak (somewhat) but when someone spoke to me I didn't understand anything, which made me very sad and eventually made me give up learning it.😢

    • @tbirdparis
      @tbirdparis 2 месяца назад +1

      Oral comprehension is definitely the hardest part about mastering French. I think the biggest problem is the liaison in French, where you sometimes have to pronounce the final consonant of certain words (which usually are silent) depending on which sound the following word in the sentence starts with. When you're trying to learn French, this makes things really tricky because you keep hearing what you think are new words you've never heard before, when actually you're not. Unfortunately it's just one of those things in languages that somehow make perfect sense when you know them, but are completely baffling when you're trying to learn as a foreigner.

    8:12 I wish other languages also had these. I remember reading texts out loud in school and only noticing it was a question when I reached the end and saw the “?”. The only difference between how questions and affirmations are written is the punctuation, reading it out loud sounds weird when you only use the appropriate tone at the very end of a phrase because you thought it wasn’t a question… or maybe the texts just sucked, in my language we usually add a few more words that you’d only find in questions, almost leaning more towards how english structures them
