Very interesting. I am convinced how similar the Slavic and Latin language groups are, for example, to my Ukrainian: Ja - Ty / Ego - Tu Mene - Tebe / mei - tui Meni - Tobi / Mihi - tibi My - Vy / Nos - Vos Nas - Vas / Nostrum - Vestrum Nam - Vam / Nobis - Vobis Nas - Vas / Nos - Vos
Nostrum has a short 'o' that does not sound like 'ah' (I'm here to help and greatly admire your videos; these are minor points compared to the otherwise excellent quality). Edit a month later: the 'u' in -um does not sound like the 'u' in dumb but like the 'u' in book.
Thanks for some really good work, Latintutorial. I'd love to see a video explaining the differences in usage between personal pronouns in the genitive case and possessive adjectives.
One other thing about the second-person pronouns (tu and vos): Do not be misled into thinking that "tu" is familiar and "vos" is formal. That distinction didn't develop until about the 15th or 16th Century, long after Vulgar Latin had given birth to the Romance languages, and even then, it was never applied in Latin as it was and still is in Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, and Romanian (the same is also true of the second-person pronouns in the Germanic languages). "Tu" is singular, and "vos" is plural, and that's the only difference between the two as far as Latin is concerned.
@Yoel Armas Macías Because "vuestra merced" had not yet become "usted" by 1492 (the year that the Sephardic Jews were expelled from Spain). As a result, that particular dialect of Spanish has no "usted," only "tú."
@Yoel Armas Macías And that right there disqualifies you from any further discussion -- or even from any further consideration as a worthy member of the human race!
@@irenejohnston6802 I have found that there are so many versions of it in English, whilst in my German mother tongue we have only one version common to Catholics and Protestants.
Don't know why that one British dude was so upset about pronouns. It seems like the number of them has actually decreased over the years. If he were actually against woke, he'd support bringing all these back.
can the accusative and dative pronouns go enclitic behind the verb like they do in some romance languages? or is this a feature that developed from vulgar latin?
I am trying to learn Latin so can you please make more of this videos please. also can you tell me other ways which types of books i should get or DVDs ?
I'll be doing my best to do at least two a month from here on out. Some months are easier than others, but who knows what the future will have in store. For textbooks for adults (which I'm assuming you are), I'd recommend Wheelock's or Learn to Read Latin (Yale Press). Both are analytical enough and go very in depth. Both also have a good workbook for practice, and go well with my videos. For children, I'd recommend a different set of texts that better suit their learning style.
+snava360z334 The Collins Latin Concise Dictionary is much more compact then Wheelock's but has a complete grammar, list of Latin phrases in use today and even a history of the Roman Empire. I have this series in several other languages and can't recommend it more highly. Wheelock's is a frumpy mess by comparison.
Do you already have videos on relative and interrogative pronouns; If not, then do you plan to make any? I'm already memorizing the paradigms, but I find it easier to remember with your explanations and colorful charts.
since you use the possessive pronouns to show possession, what is the use of genitive pronouns? could you reexplain it, cause I didn't get that item. thanks again for your help !
The Genitive case of the personal pronouns is used after certain verbs and expressions that require the Genitive, such as "memini" ("remember") and "obliviscor" ("forget"). "Tui memini" ("I remember you;" one can also say "memor tui sum" -- "I am mindful of you.").
1. Ego portō = I carry Tū portās = you carry 2. (First person) Ego = I Meī - of me Mihi - to/for me Mē - me Mē - by/with/from/in/on me (2nd person) Tū - you Tuī - of you Tibi - to/for you Tē - you Tē - by/with/from/in/on me
I was blessed to be born into a romance language country. The similarities make it way easier to learn :)
Possibly so, but maybe you're also smart.
I suppose I’m blest to know both English and Spanish natively. But not only that, my brain seems to be geared towards language learning lol
Once again a clear, lucid explaination. But more endings to commit to memory :-)

the proto-indoeuropean hypothesis.
@@shellgecko Definitely more than a hypothesis, lol
when you find out there's a pronoun that's *meme*:
Your videos saved me...

There isn't a U in book
U as in FOOL

If two vowels are together, but one is long, should I pronounce it separately?
Like meī (me-ī and not mey?)
You should pronounce them separately, but try not to insert a glottal stop between them, it's a smooth glide between the both of them.

"Tu" is singular, and "vos" is plural, and that's the only difference between the two as far as Latin is concerned.
This confusion only was developed in major romances aka countries with nobility and kings. In minor romances they use tu and vos in old way forever...
@Yoel Armas Macías That depends on the language. It didn't exist in Spanish in Columbus's time (1492), for example.
@Yoel Armas Macías Because "vuestra merced" had not yet become "usted" by 1492 (the year that the Sephardic Jews were expelled from Spain). As a result, that particular dialect of Spanish has no "usted," only "tú."
@Yoel Armas Macías I just told you. The dialect of Spanish that is spoken by the Sephardic Jews to this day.

Thanks alot, im still going to blow my brains out xD its 2AM and i have an exam tmr HELP
The forms mei and tui can be used both as an object and partitive genitive.

Been a while, I haven't been learning latin lately, but it's just a pass time while I'm on the internet really.

Good videos.
1.
Ego portō = I carry
Tū portās = you carry
2.
(First person)
Ego = I
Meī - of me
Mihi - to/for me
Mē - me
Mē - by/with/from/in/on me
(2nd person)
Tū - you
Tuī - of you
Tibi - to/for you
Tē - you
Tē - by/with/from/in/on me
'Ego' is the singular pronoun for both greek and latin language. Was latin influenced by greek or the opposite?
They are like cousin languages that happen to have the same nose.
It is because they have a common ancestor
what happened to 3rd person singular and plural?

They eat it.
What about the third person?
