Dear viewers, followers, I read all the criticisms and comments from you, and I also take them into consideration. It is obvious that it is not even possible for a person to master all languages, so there will be mistakes. I will pay attention to these in every new video. Think of this place as a language school where we will all learn together. Everyone will present the beauties, differences and mysteries of their own language. In this way, better results will emerge.
Add Armenia and Georgia! They are culturally closer to Europe than Turkey, and I don’t know about Georgia, but Armenian words will relate sometimes to European language words
Slavic {Russian, Polish, Czech, Bulgarian, Ukrainian, Slovak, Slovene, Belarusian & Macedonian} words for "fire" & Baltic {Latvian & Lithuanian} words for "fire" are from the same root, from Proto Balto-Slavic "ugnis~ogn" 🔥... so you should colored them into the same color just like the word for earth 🌍.
Yes, I know. I do the coloring by paying attention to this. I paint them in different shades of the same color because they come from the same root. But I also paint them in different colors so that the different ones are clearly visible. I also show the countries in this order.
And in Farsi (Persian), too, though not on this map, of course. In Mazandarani local language it sounds like "eau", though standard Farsi is "ab". It likely came from there to Europe. Mazandarani is often closer to the ancient language than Farsi.
Ugnis and ogon' have the the same root. Water and voda the same. Not a linguist, but it is so obvious. Why are they coloured differently? Thanks for the video
In Romanian, the word Pământ (Earth) comes from the Latin Pavimentum. At the same time, in the Romanian language there is also the word Paviment, which comes from the Latin Pavimentum and means the floor of a room or the paving of an inner courtyard, made of stone, mosaic, etc.
The word Vozduh (from the root meaning to Breathe) is also relevant in Polish, Belarusian and Ukrainian, although it is actually Povertye (from the word Wind) that is used to designate the element. The words Uguns and Ugnis are also of the same root as the more common Ogon among the Slavs. And groups of words from Feu with Feuer. The Saxon Water is the same as the Slavic Voda and the Scandinavian Vatten
Russian also has the word Povetrie, but it is archaic. I've only seen it in the phrase "моровое поветрие" which means something like miasma or diseased air, literally "a plague wind"
@@majk2006 it's more like older people slang in Czech, but it's common to say for example vyluftovat when you want to bring fresh air to the room or you can say vyhodit to do luftu which means blow it to the air. But variants with normal Czech word for air are more common today.
@Pidalin It's also the case in silesia. Some people still use the silesian slang which is mostly a combination of Czech and German words eg. Povetri in Czechian powietrze in Polish.

The Turkish word for fire, ateş, is actually a loanword from Persian; because the old Turkic word for fire, öd, changed meaning: Today it means yellow bile. Words derived from it include odun (firewood) and odak (focus, as in the focal point of a burning-lens)
It's not öd. It is od like the words odun or odak as u mentioned and it is still in use, albeit rarely, in literary and colloquial speech. Öd and od are different words. Today, öd is yellow bile, yes, and it also has another meaning in old Turkic like ''time''. The word öğün and öğlen are coming from öd for example.

Also, in other Indo-European languages, fire is designated in most cases as "agni, ogon".

I think you're right with Jord and Tvjord. In Russia we have a city Tver which actually comes from Tvjerd meaning Firm Ground. After the flood it must have been one of few places where the ground became firm very quickly.
Also, Slavic voda, etc.: from the same root are Dutch and English water, German Wasser (Gothic wato, gen. watins), and Ancient Greek hydor (w-dor), 'water'. Sanskrit agni is Latin ignis, 'fire'. Sanskrit vata = English, German and Dutch wind, Latin ventus, 'wind'. Lithuanian daũsos is related to Dutch dier, German Tier, English deer = 'animal', 'breathing one'.

@@ahemenidov1900OK, but is that relevant from the perspective of this video? Sanskrit isn't on the map, but Greek, Italian (of which Latin is of course the precursor) and the Germanic languages are. That's why I mentioned these.
In north-eastern dialects of Lithuania (Aukštaitian/Dzukian) vanduo (water) is pronounced as unduo/vunduo. Modern Lithuanian is built upon south western Sudovian dialekt in which sound "u" usually becomes "a", as Dzukian variant vunduo is closer geographically, it became vanduo in Sudovian, and that is how it became "official" word for water in common Lithuanian. Also, "dausos" means afterlife in pagan belief. "Dusuoti" would be more suitable in this example as it means "to breathe heavily". "Uždusti" mens to lose breath.
Should I join this channel because this video has an exciting words? I am from Kazakhstan. Geographycally, 80% areas of Kazakhstan are located in Asia. But it must be have European border. It contains only 20%(according to the Uralsk, Atyrau). But Turkiye is mostly located in Asia. Anyway, Turkiye has a small territories in Europe because of Istambul city. Turkiye in Asia: 97% Turkiye in Europe: 3% *Don't call me "Nerd". I will excuse you all if I wrote too long* According to the video: In Kazakhstan we say: Kazakh(latin forma) | English 1) Aua - air 2) Zher - Earth 3) Ot - fire 4) Su - water *Thanks for reading!*
You got greek wrong Nero is modern word the word is idor or idro as in hydro. I was told in olden days hawkers would sell water yelling fresh water. Nero comes from word for fresh which now is used for youth as they adopted fresco from Italian in modern Greek for fresh.
‘Vatra’ is not a Slavic word but rather a loanword from a Paleo-Balkan language, so either Albanian or Romanian. In both of these languages, 'vatra' has several meanings, including fire, fireplace, house, homeland etc. If it was a Slavic loanword, there would be no dialectical variations of that word but since there are (especially in Albanian), we can pretty confidently claim that it’s a loanword one of 🇦🇱🇷🇴 (Albanian is more probable) gave to the South-Slavic languages.
You're not strictly wrong, but "tine" is probably the better term to use for fire in Irish. Dóiteán means fire in certain contexts but I've never really heard it used as a stand-alone word.
In Greek "Fotia" is modern word coming from the word fos meaning Light. The word that is still in use and creates words is "pyr" meaning fire 🔥 flame. 😊🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
You left out the Celtic language of most of the British Isles. The Irish say Aer, Ishka, Teer, and Tinna, (Air, Water, Land, Fire). They don't spell them that way.
Many of those painted differently are actually cognates. Most obviously the water ones: all of the germanic and slavic are apparently descended from the same proto-indo-european root
I'm sorry, but for a lot of your videos you should do proper research. In this case, French eau and Romanian apă are both derived from Latin. Also, Hungarian víz is related to Finnish and Estonian vesi. Also, based on what do you colour the countries? Cuz sometimes there is obvious connection between them and you still give them different color.
In greek: Death-thάnatos (th as in "think"). In ancient greek also "mόros" - see latin "mors" (same IE root) - but mostly meant "fate". Life-zoί. Also a name for women-see english Zoe Love-a) agapi. Also a name for women. It means "love, affection" b) erotas or eros. It means "very strong love, passion". It also means "sex" depending on the context.
If you are even adding Turkish as an European language, which is only partially in Europe, then it's a sin to not add Basque :) Earth: lur/lurra Fire: su Water: ur/ura
@@Harbin_07 Well, please don't misunderstand me, I have no problem with Turkish being included whatsoever, it just surprised me a bit that Basque (given its strict location in Europe) has not been included :P After all, it's a delightful accidental opposition, su meaning "fire" in Basque and "water" in Turkic languages : 3

main issue is that the French word for water comes from the same root as the other romance languages and the North Germanic words for water are all cognate with the West Germanic words for water same with the word Earth as all are related
In Swedish we can say "ta fyr" if something catches fire, and "fyra av" to shoot a gun or fireworks - fyrverkeri. A lighthouse is a "fyrtorn" - fire tower.
@apollonxyz not so common, and some of them might be influence of german. The common word is "eld". The command to fire in military is "eld" and we speak of "eldgivning". Many times we have several words for things but some sounds archaic. An older word for boy is "gosse", probaly related to Norwegian "gutt", but the common word in Swedish is "pojke" from Finnish "poika".

"Pavetra" , "Povietrya" , "Powietrze" - "Povetrie" , "Veter" what means "wind" in russian. It's just a synonyms with word "air". UPD: for very "logical" guys who claim that there is nothing in common between the words air and wind: even in the ukrainian language the words wind "вітер" and air "повітрия" are cognate words.
Поветрие is something completely different though. It's not a synonym, it's something called a "false friend" in linguistics - a word that looks familiar, but isn't what you might assume
@@user-vks-o8t Когда знаешь перевод, связь очевидна. И интуитивно понятно, что речь о чём-то, связанном с воздухом. Но если тебе это слово показали бы без контекста, твоей первой догадкой "воздух" не был бы
Another Russian guy, who doesn't know any other Slavic languages, tells it's all the same 😅 No, it's not. In your language, for instance "воздух" doesn't mean "ветер". Air and wind are two different phenomenons.
I'm pretty sure Water, Vatn and Voda all have the same indogermanic root, should therefore be the same colour - or at least a similar one. I noticed this with many maps, but this strikes me the most. Also, Basque is completely missing - of course, it's linguistically completely isolated and every word would be different, but in order to make these maps as comprehensive as they should be it should be included.
"Eau", "acqua" and "apă" have the same exact origin, but with drastically different phonetic development. "Apă" is still recognizable (if you know a fairy regular c -> p transition in Romanian), "eau" is unrecognizable at all.
Arapçada "أرض" (arz/ard) ile earth temelde aynı sözcük. Ea-r-th, (a-r-d/z) أرض sözcüğündeki harf kalın bir d,z sesi gibi farklı bir sestir. Arap olmadığım için sesin telaffuzunu tam çıkaramam ancak internette çeviriden dinlenebilir. أرض sözcüğü Türkçede arz olarak yazılır. "Yeryüzü" demektir.

Another interesting thing is pronouncing of (r) in kurdish it pronounced rr/ř like Russian and other slavics, but the rest of iranic languages is different@Tollphys
Albanian zjarr is closest realization of PIE word *gʷʰer-mós for fire, in some dialects it's even pronounced gyarm . As a matter of fact, Albanian has some of the most frequency closest realization of PIE like the word for light in Albanian is drita, in PIE is *drikta.
tou are using the modern (common) words for water and fire in Greek. Should be "Ythor" (root of hydro) for water and Pyr (root of pyromaniac) for fire.
Frankly a-lot of the Scandinavian ones seem similar to the Germanic to me - Vatern - Water - Wasser. Earth - Erde - Jerd. I don’t see the point in separating them into a different linguistic group
The Irish word for fire here should be ‘Tine’. Dóiteán is when something is burning as in an emergency and needs to be extinguished. The element is Tine.
The things are mixed, especially in Balcans, albanian "zjarr" is identical with romanian "jar", but here jar means a burning wood piece or charcoal, same slavic "vatra" is similar with romanian place for making fire, "vatra".
Because it's only with official national language. Scottish gaelic is not the official language of the uk. Scotland is not an independent country, sadly.
In Albanian we use also the word Vatra like in Serbo-Croatian but in another meaning. It means the places where the flames are burning. It's amazing how the laguages mix up and the words sometimes get other meaning
Ah that explains why the russians drink so much alcoholic vodka, they just think it's water 😆 If true, it's just a stereotype, I'm curious how true it actually is.
Millions of Turks literally live in their own country in the European continent (southeasternmost Europe), and Turkey has extremely ancient a and strong connections with Europe genetically, demographically, culturally and economically. That's why
In Bengali,we use Hawa/Vayu/Batas (Air), prithibi/Dharitri (Earth), Agun/Agni (Fire), Jal/Pani/Bari (Water) It's More close to Eastern European languages.
I'm a Pole and in our language in the deep south of Poland we also have watra as fire in mountainous region. Of course ogień is basic word byt as a Pole who is interested in regional words I easy recognise 'watra'. I didn't know it came from South Slavic nations.
@@henrykkeszenowicz4664 I'm sorry, because I'm not enough good in english. It is rather fireplace. Po prostu nie wiedziałem, jak po angielsku jest 'ognisko'. Następnym razem muszę sprawdzić w słowniku polsko angielskim. Pozdrawiam.
We in Ukrainian also have "Vatra", but it means specifically a fireplace. Also, despite that air is "povitriya", I know that some dialects call it as "vosdukh" + it could be Russian influence
Czech and Slovak has vzduch for air so I don't think it's Russian influence. Provetriti is to air out in Serbian and Povetri is to air out in Czech. I guess it comes from Vetar = wind.
A lot of Norwegian words are weong. There are 2 written standards, and considering minority languages are used in many countries are used, nynorsk should be used for Norway. Many times, Iceland and Sweden is more similar to how I speak/write than "Norwegian"
I think for an air element in Polish wiatr (direct translation: wind) would be more fitting, as powietrze is more of the name for physical air, the gas. In old Polish, the original meaning of powietrze was an open space, a place where winds blows.
To głupi pomysł, bo żywioł nazywa się powietrze, nie wiatr. Równie dobrze można napisać fala zamiast woda, góra zamiast ziemia albo iskra zamiast ogień

In north-eastern dialects of Lithuania (Aukštaitian/Dzukian) vanduo (water) is pronounced as unduo/vunduo. Modern Lithuanian is built upon south western Sudovian dialekt in which sound "u" usually becomes "a", as Dzukian variant vunduo is closer geographically, it became vanduo in Sudovian, and that is how it became "official" word for water in common Lithuanian.
Also, "dausos" means afterlife in pagan belief. "Dusuoti" would be more suitable in this example as it means "to breathe heavily". "Uždusti" mens to lose breath.

You got greek wrong Nero is modern word the word is idor or idro as in hydro. I was told in olden days hawkers would sell water yelling fresh water. Nero comes from word for fresh which now is used for youth as they adopted fresco from Italian in modern Greek for fresh.
And isn't "fire" _pyro_ ?
Nero is also correct since this is the word that Greeks use for water nowadays.
‘Vatra’ is not a Slavic word but rather a loanword from a Paleo-Balkan language, so either Albanian or Romanian. In both of these languages, 'vatra' has several meanings, including fire, fireplace, house, homeland etc. If it was a Slavic loanword, there would be no dialectical variations of that word but since there are (especially in Albanian), we can pretty confidently claim that it’s a loanword one of 🇦🇱🇷🇴 (Albanian is more probable) gave to the South-Slavic languages.
You're not strictly wrong, but "tine" is probably the better term to use for fire in Irish. Dóiteán means fire in certain contexts but I've never really heard it used as a stand-alone word.
In Greek "Fotia" is modern word coming from the word fos meaning Light. The word that is still in use and creates words is "pyr" meaning fire 🔥 flame. 😊🇬🇷🇬🇷🇬🇷
You left out the Celtic language of most of the British Isles. The Irish say Aer, Ishka, Teer, and Tinna, (Air, Water, Land, Fire). They don't spell them that way.

Many of those painted differently are actually cognates. Most obviously the water ones: all of the germanic and slavic are apparently descended from the same proto-indo-european root
I'm sorry, but for a lot of your videos you should do proper research. In this case, French eau and Romanian apă are both derived from Latin. Also, Hungarian víz is related to Finnish and Estonian vesi. Also, based on what do you colour the countries? Cuz sometimes there is obvious connection between them and you still give them different color.
Great idea of videos ! I wanted to see this kind of video for a long time!
Some ideas, all over Europe, how do we say:

In greek:
Death-thάnatos (th as in "think"). In ancient greek also "mόros" - see latin "mors" (same IE root) - but mostly meant "fate".
Life-zoί. Also a name for women-see english Zoe
Love-a) agapi. Also a name for women. It means "love, affection"
b) erotas or eros. It means "very strong love, passion". It also means "sex" depending on the context.

Albania, Hungary and Ireland: 😎😎😎
There is actually another word in Ukrainian for Vohon’, it is vatra as in southern Slavic languages
Air is called Hava in almost all North Indian languages too - as in Turkish.
Fire is called Agun in Bengali , aag in hindi - similar to Russian.
Thanks for pointing out the similarities between Hindi and Bengali words and European languages.
Hava is borrowed, in both instanced, from Arabic هواء (hawaa') if I'm not mistaken..
In Swedish we can say "ta fyr" if something catches fire, and "fyra av" to shoot a gun or fireworks - fyrverkeri. A lighthouse is a "fyrtorn" - fire tower.
Why is "eld" used for fire when "fyr" is so commonly used?
@apollonxyz not so common, and some of them might be influence of german. The common word is "eld". The command to fire in military is "eld" and we speak of "eldgivning". Many times we have several words for things but some sounds archaic.
An older word for boy is "gosse", probaly related to Norwegian "gutt", but the common word in Swedish is "pojke" from Finnish "poika".

For awareness. It seems to have worked. Otherwise, I would have to always paint the map the same color regardless of the words.
"Pavetra" , "Povietrya" , "Powietrze" - "Povetrie" , "Veter" what means "wind" in russian. It's just a synonyms with word "air".
UPD: for very "logical" guys who claim that there is nothing in common between the words air and wind: even in the ukrainian language the words wind "вітер" and air "повітрия" are cognate words.
Поветрие is something completely different though. It's not a synonym, it's something called a "false friend" in linguistics - a word that looks familiar, but isn't what you might assume

"Vėtra" is storm in Lithuanian.

No, it's not. In your language, for instance "воздух" doesn't mean "ветер". Air and wind are two different phenomenons.
I'm pretty sure Water, Vatn and Voda all have the same indogermanic root, should therefore be the same colour - or at least a similar one. I noticed this with many maps, but this strikes me the most.
Also, Basque is completely missing - of course, it's linguistically completely isolated and every word would be different, but in order to make these maps as comprehensive as they should be it should be included.
"Eau", "acqua" and "apă" have the same exact origin, but with drastically different phonetic development. "Apă" is still recognizable (if you know a fairy regular c -> p transition in Romanian), "eau" is unrecognizable at all.

Frankly a-lot of the Scandinavian ones seem similar to the Germanic to me - Vatern - Water - Wasser. Earth - Erde - Jerd. I don’t see the point in separating them into a different linguistic group
The Irish word for fire here should be ‘Tine’. Dóiteán is when something is burning as in an emergency and needs to be extinguished. The element is Tine.
The things are mixed, especially in Balcans, albanian "zjarr" is identical with romanian "jar", but here jar means a burning wood piece or charcoal, same slavic "vatra" is similar with romanian place for making fire, "vatra".
