      @@lsztmjr5240 Heres a long comment that i wrote to other video about hungarian and ugric history, maybe you find it interesting:
      How uralic speakers went to hungary:
      Long time ago in ural mountains there was 3 brother tribes, the khanty, mansi and magyar. The magyar allied with huns or some related people and probably became part of onogur tribal alliance (turkic warriors/horsemen) they rode to europe then where hungary is now. Its also related to bulgarians who used to live in east next to finno-ugrics. Magyars were uralic speaking so although they allied with turkic tribes tho onogur they kept their own language too. These magyar tribesmen became leaders in hungary and thats why the language is still speaked there, but blood of those original uralid magyars from east has faided away long time ago. Original magyars looked similar to khantys and mansi people. Mix between siberian natives and europeans. Modern magyars dont have really nothing common with those original magyars.
      I think the name ugrian might actually come from times when the uralic tribes khanty, mansi and magyar were in alliance with turkic tribes known as onogur/ogur that were also living in western siberia next to them at some point. So the name ugor/yugor/now ugric might actually be from that alliance to ogur. Onogur= ogur= ugor/yugor = ugric. I did read that name of khanty might also be from that time of turkic alliance and its related to turkic word Khan maybe, because the khanty were sometype of local elite back then in north, mansi also being some type warrior society as the word mansi migh also mean something like that.
      Altough the name ugrian and khanty migh be actually the name and word of turkic origin and people, the ugrians themself did not have much turkic ancestry. Ugrians had earlier themself came from mix of uralic samoyed type of natives from deeper siberia that came to contact with europid indo european people when they reached south western siberia land between kama and irtysh.
      The samoyeds who staid bit more east are also uralic, but as they did not come as much contact to those indo european folks they staid more closer to original "uralic" speakers asian look and language without mixing to those europids and their indo european languages as much.
      theres lots of people in world that mistakenly think that uralic languages are of european origin because the homeland was believed to be between kama and irtysh that was populated by europid people,,, but thats not possible because those europid people in that "uralic homeland" were probably allready talking indo european language because the findings are related to indo europeans from that time, fhile the uralic languages were still coming from east probably along the ob river somewhere deeper from siberia. Well i feel like the real uralic origin homeland might been the ob and irtysh river shores that along they came to northern ural from east. Some of them then move down and come to contact to those indo european europid folks. When they mixed it creates the half asian half white/half uralic half indo european people = aka finno-ugrics., while the samoyeds stay just uralics as they stay in east in the volga irtysh part towards altai/sayan/baikal region. Some of those samoyeds in east then mix to the yenisayan natives/ket and that creates the selkup peoples, while nenets, nganasan, enets ancestors at some point head towards ural and taimyr in north. Well this theory supports the old samoyed stories that they lived in northern altai in old times before moving north and ural.
      Plus yakuts/sakha, yugakhirs, buryats and nanai east from uralics seem to be partly from uralic ancestry too. So i assume those "uralics" that staid in east were assimilated to mongolian and tungusic tribes while some tribes continued to west to ural and became the uralics.

      I am pretty well versed in ancient Hungarian history, also studied lingustics in university and been reading about genetics for a while. You gotta admit there is something mysteriously unclear about how modern theories explain Hungarian ethnogenesis. A small, insignificant Uralic tribe that became the largest Finno-Ugric speaking nation, larger than all other Finno-Ugrics put together....

      @Kalevic No, Karelia is Karelian. Not Finnish, or Russian. Just like you said, independence has nothing to do with it and you don't need full nation-statehood to have agency. Karelian language and culture has been it's own thing for as long as Finnish culture has. Of course since there are more similarities with Finnish language and culture than anything else (except for maybe veps and ingrian) since they are both baltic-finnic peoples, some Finnish people can't seem to tell the difference and want to label anything that they can even remotely relate to as Finnish cause we still can't comperehend the concept of related languages for some reason. Karelia has been a borderland for centuries, so naturally, there will be Karelians who have been more assimilated to Finnish society and even more of them who have been assimilated to Russian society since most of Karelia is and has always been in Russia.

I am Karelian and I am Finnish. My Karelian family fled their homes when the communists attacked. Karelians have not assimilated to Russian society, because "Karelia is and has always been in Russia", most Karelians had to flee to Finland from soviet aggression, and most who remained were sent into labour camps or forcefully assimilated by the soviet regime. The majority of Karelians live in Finland and our culture is actively practiced and preserved here unlike in Russia. Karelia is literally the birthplace of Finnish culture. There is nothing more finnish than Karelia. Russia only stole our homeland, but that doesn't change anything.

    To be honest, it sounds like all of the Russian-based Ugric languages are being spoken by native Russian language speakers who have learned the Uralic language through the medium of Russian, which results in a really garbled and heavy accent. This is particularly true with the (likely moribund) Finnic languages like Veps and Karelian where any real continued community usage of these languages has been non-existent for some time, and the small efforts made by the Russian state to keep it alive are woefully insufficient and just ends up making the languages sound like heavily-accented Finnish...although this is just my opinion.

      This comment is funny, because in truth it's precisely the other way around. The abundant soft consonants of Russian were originally characteristic of Uralic. Much of the territory of European Russia used to be Uralic-speaking, so Russian is Slavic spoken with a Uralic accent. Finnish on the other hand lost all of its soft consonants as a result of heavy contact with Germanic, which is why it now sounds so different from the rest, even Estonian.

      As someone who has lived in Siberia where the Nenets are the main minority, I can assure you the one in the video speaks natively (there are virtually zero native Russian speakers who learn Nenets, unfortunately). Also, native Nenets speakers have the prosody and phonetics very similar to Russian, most likely due to the centuries of exposure to it (Russian was forced on them in their daily lives).

      @Lars Lars North Sami and Finnish are grammatically identical, but only share about 20% of vocabulary, and some of these words can be hard to recognize due to ”the Great Sami Vowel Shift” (eg. a-uo, ä-ie, ü-ë, o-oa, e-ea) and Finnish depalatalizing (eg. the word for “wart”, Proto-Uralic “ćiklä” became Finnish ”syylä” and North Sami “čivhli”). The most basic conversations can be mutually understood, since the core vocabulary is the same, but anything beyond that gets trickier. I understood that the reporter was talking about sun during the Sápmi Polar Night.

      @@TheJopeToons It’s hard to find a comparison to the relationship between North Sami and Finnish from other languages, but i’d say it’s more like comparing English to a North Germanic language. Greek is way too distant..

    My first wife was Hungarian, my current one is Estonian 😊 so I do understand and speak (to some extend) both of this languages.
    But only Finnish is quite close to Estonian. 😜
    All those „Russian“ speakers sounded somehow familiar, but as well because it was a Russian accent. 😂

    Some finnish people say that Karelian is dialect of Finnish but I don't agree with them. I can understand many sentences in Karelian but it is still definetly a language. But idc what y'all say, but Meänkieli shouldn't be a language. I can understand everything. Meänkieli should be considered a dialect of Finnish. Its probably easier to understand than Savonian.
