  • Domari and Sanskrit are both Indo-Aryan languages. Domari, which is sometimes referred to as Middle Eastern Romani, is spoken by the Dom people, a nomadic group originating from the Indian subcontinent who migrated and settled in the Middle East many centuries ago. In this video we explore some of the commonalities between the two languages, with Shivani (Sanskrit speaker) and Kamal (Domari speaker).

    Sanskrit (संस्कृत) is one of the oldest Indo-Aryan languages. It has influenced several Indo-European, Iranian, as well as European languages. It is the primary liturgical language of Hinduism and some texts of Buddhism and Jainism. Today, Sanskrit is still spoken as a primary language in some parts of India. Sanskrit has had a significant impact on languages outside of the Indian subcontinent. Sanskrit manuscripts and inscriptions have been found in China, Indonesia, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Mongolia, Thailand, Malaysia, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Korea, Japan, and other parts of the world. It is very common to find words that are derived from Sanskrit in Chinese, Sino-Tibetan languages, Thai, Khmer, and Lao. Austronesian languages, such as Javanese, Malay, Tagalog, and Indonesian, also derive a portion of their vocabulary from Sanskrit. European languages, including English, also contain words derived from Sanskrit.
    Domari is an endangered Indo-Aryan language, which is spoken by the Dom people, primarily in the Middle East and North Africa. It has native speakers in numerous countries across the region such as Azerbaijan, Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Palestine, Israel, Jordan, Egypt, Sudan, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Syria, Sudan, and Lebanon.

      Bahador plz a request ,take your time 🙏 but please I want a sankrit videos with all languages from India to English channel🌊🌀 . Bcoz all ,yes all European languages have sanskrit words in it . Lithuania ( god ) = deva , sanskrit = deva
      English = 3 (three) , sanskrit = trree
      Eng = hepta (7) , sanskrit= septa
      Eng = name , sankrit = nama
      Eng = cow , sanskt = Gau
      Eng = mother , sansk = matra
      Italian = argentine (silver ) , sansk= arjun
      French= mort (death) , sansk = mrut
      This is just the tip of iceberg.
      Plz plz plz take your time may be year/s but make sanskrit videos with All European languages . That will attract a lot of crowd both from India and Europe.
      One more 😁
      Czech = veda (science which means knowledge) , sansk= veda ( knowledge )
      Another thing I forgot to write is
      The country Syria is pronounced "Ceeria" by us outsiders but the citizens of that country call their motherland as " sooriya " , which means sun 🌞 and the land of sun and guess what Sun is called in sanskrit , yes , exactly , it's called "Sooriya"

    - treni/tren/tre (three, 3)
    - ?/pesom/piselli (green peas)
    - kastha/kast/castello (this means "castle" and comes from Latin "castrum", which sounds really similar to "kastha" and refers to Roman forts usually built with wooden walls all around)
    - vanya/vay/aria (air. Not so similar, but "anya" sounds like "aria" a little bit)
    - churika/churi/coltello (knife, "coltello" comes from "culter", Latin word also meaning "knife", very similar to ENG "cutter" as well. Not sure about this one)

Unlike the previous populations who might have taken up from Classical Sanskrit or Vedic Sanskrit, this one has the Prakrit as the base language and thus the Prakrit version of words.

    I was late to discover the history of Romani-Domari people. The discrimination they have suffered, often turning into oppression and even genocide, has been rarely recorded.
    I just hope India would use its diplomatic good offices to ensure Romani-Domari people have their rights affirmed and upheld.
    Opre Roma! Long live the Roma!🙏👍

      Even though these romani have lost their identity and religion, it's still obvious that some of them are higher caste when you look at their faces as compared to kinsmen in India. Quite tragic that they were moved out of India because of muslim invaders or hun invaders and forced to change their religion by Europeans/Arabs. Hopefully, they will regain a life of dignity once they rediscover the religion of their ancestors.

      Roma Migration started occurring during Ghaznavid Invasion of India, its common knowledge that scale of Islamic invaders was so large that the huge number of people as slaves from India created as entire race of people. While slavery existed much of its support was derived from Islam& Islamic countries

    I am an Indian Syleti (it's also regarded as a dialect of another Indian Language called Bengali) I am actually quite fascinated to see how much Domri is similar to Syleti.
    Considering Domri has Indian origin it should not be surprising. Since I am hearing this language for the first time and the language belongs to a different country now, that is why I am shocked. It's wierd how connected the entire world is.

      No. Despite the obvious similarity. The real meaning is Luft+Hansa. Where Hansa is not the Sanskrit swan, but derived from Hansa aka the Hanseatic League, a medieval commercial and defensive confederation of merchant guilds and market towns in Central and Northern Europe.
