    Many years ago I was injured while snowboarding in Jasna, Slovakia. I had to undergo a surgery. There was absolutely 0 problems communicating to Slovak medical staff in Ukrainian, we could understand each other pretty well when speaking slowly. I was actually surprised a lot, before that I thought Polish was the closest language to Ukrainian. But at least for me, Slovak was much much easier to understand. That's probably because Slovak phonology is much closer to Ukrainian than Polish.

Yehor spoke a bit fast at times and there were some key words that didn't click right away such as почуття which would otherwise be чувство in Bulgarian, but the hints definitely helped in connecting everything together.

    19:04 - In Ukraine we have an old word - чепіль [chepil`], which means an simple knife with a wooden handle, or a knife blade, and sometimes an old knife with a broken tip. But this word is barely used, although it remains in surnames or toponyms. Here is some more examples of old words used to describe parts of swords:
    перехрестя [perekhresti͡a], хрестовина [khrestovyna], хрест [khrest], криж (kryz͡h) - it is a guard part, mostly in a form of cross
    руків'я [rukivi͡a], рукоятка [rukoi͡atka], черен [cheren], ручка [ruchka] - it is a handle part. Also all of the handle parts sometimes calls - держак [derz͡hak]
    верхів'я [verkhivi͡a], яблуко [i͡abluko] (an apple), навершя [navershi͡a] - it is a pommel
    And of course, the sword is inserted into a sheath: піхви [pikhvy] (plural), singular form is: піхва [pikhva] - also means a vagina, same as in Latin

      You mean accent and/or slang? Chileans still speak Spanish and learn from the Royal Spanish Institute directive. A Dialectical difference would be like Patois vs English, but not King's English vs American English.

    • @oscarmedina9669
      @oscarmedina9669 Год назад

      A Dialect is a variant of a language, which can differ from the "standard" due to place, social status, and contact with other languages spoken before (substratum languages) or neighboring/immigrant languages (superstratum languages). That is to say, Mexican dialect, Castilian Dialect, Argentine dialect, etc. See it as an Ice cream: It is always Ice cream, but you change ingredients, and the flavour changes...That's how you could see dialects. Patois is a creole language, not a Dialect...When a dialect starts to change a lot, especially its syntax (order of words), the vocab, changes sounds, up to the point where you cannot understand, then it is the beginning of a language. E.g: a hundred years ago, Afrikaans was considered a dialect of Dutch, but then linguists realised that it had changed to the point where a Dutch person had a hard time to comprehend it, because sounds, syntax and vocab had changed a lot...and now it is considered a language in its own right@@armyaj

    Great video! I understood both languages pretty well.
    In Belarusian:
    1. Dormitory - Інтэрнат.
    2. Soup - Суп; Clear soup - Поліўка. We also have the word "булён", it is more like unseasoned meat broth, or potato soup seasoned with lard.
    3. Love - Каханне, it is a great feeling for a certain person of the opposite sex. There is also the word "любоў" it can also mean the feeling of passionate affection for a person of the opposite sex, but it is used more rarely than "каханне" when we talk about romantic relationships. There is also "любасць", a feeling of deep sympathy to someone or something, but it is never used in a context of romantic love. "Ласка" is basically expression of caring, tenderness to other person. We also have the word "міласць" but it means a generous relationship or donation/ gift.
    4. Sword - Меч.

      In Bulgarian:
      1. We have интернат as well which is taken from German but also пансион which is from French. Also общежитие, студентски дом...
      2. супа (loan from French), застройка (adding egg, flower or milk to soup like similarly to бульон), чорба - soup with more vegetables, meat (taken from Persian through Ottoman Turkish). бульон - broth (taken from French again)
      3. обич is love, обичане is the feeling that you love someone. Любов too but it's also related the slang ''любя се'' to make a carnal love, even though in poetic form ''любя'' is to love or to kiss someone. ''Ласка'' is similar to the Belarusian one and we also have verbs like ''лаская, милувам/милвам'' which are related to caressing someone. And we also have ''галене, галя...'' too. The word for love in Bulgarian comes from ''обичай'' - custom traditions like ''нрав'' (character, nature of a person). Like we have ''нравя ми се'' which is like the Russian ''мне нравится'' and similarly that's how ''обИчай'' became - to love someone, ''обичАй'' - custom traditions.
      4. меч (However you pronounce it softer while we pronounce it harder like мэч)

    However, as a Pole, from the conversation i was able to understand a lot, because of much similarity both languages to mine (Polish). But i think, there is one more Polish word for the "student's house" - that is "bursa" - that comes from latin word meaning "a pouch" (any connections with a Turkish city of the same name) and means also a kind of building where students can stay for a longer period.

Dormitories are a common form of student housing, providing a place for students to live while attending educational institutions. These facilities often include common areas such as lounges, kitchens, and communal bathrooms. Dormitories play a significant role in fostering a sense of community among students and are a central part of the college or university experience for many.

Моя бабуся часто говорила "кохати" чи "викохати" у значенні "ростити", "виростити з любов'ю" (Наприклад: "кохати діточок" чи "викохати кабанчика"). А дієприкметник "закоханий" означає не тільки той хто переповнений почуттями, а й той на кого направлені почуття. (Наприклад : "закохане дитятко" чи "закоханий котик"). У цьому значенні можна зустріти і в сучасних піснях, наприклад KAZKA "Плакала", там говориться про "закохану малу".

    In Serbian, we have "ljubav" (love) and "voleti" (to love). This applies to love towards people, food etc.
    We have "milost" (mercy) we use in the same meaning as in English, which is the act of sparing someone from punishment, religiously and/or legally. The verb "pomilovati" has two meanings, however. One is related to mercy, i.e. to abolish someone from punishment, but also to caress, to stroke someone. "Milovati" means to be caressing or stroking someone.
    "Laskati" is a verb that means to speak highly of someone, to praise someone. The adjective "laskav" is usually used with the words like "titula" (title) or "nagrada" (prize) and the closest thing that comes to mind as an English translation for this adjective is highly-regarded.

      In Russian ЮШКА is often used for the liquid formed in vegetable salads (mixture of sour cream or oil and vegetable juice), and I think it’s also relative to УХА (fish soup).

    As a Serb, the Slovak language is much closer to me than Ukrainian...and if I know Russian, however, I understand Slovak better than Ukrainian😮

    • @darzadarza4269
      @darzadarza4269 Год назад +2

      Yes, as a Russian speaker I feel that Slovak is the closest Slavic language to Russian (beside Belorussian and Ukrainian), closer than Bulgarian, for example, despite the stereotypes. By the way, the modern Ukrainian language seems to be even closer to Polish than Russian (at least in terms of vocabulary).

    Love words are funny. Bulgarian is more like Slovak. Laska - caress (noun). Laskav - tender. Milost - mercy, grace. Milovat- caress (verb, physical). In some dialects - erotic love, ljubov- General love.
    Kochane- doesn’t exist.
    (I)mam te rad - doesn’t exist, seems to be same as German „hab dich lieb“
    Thx Norbert - great video.

      I think you're right that this expression comes from German which Czech (and I guess Slovak to some extent) has a lot of. More precisely it would be "gern haben" and not "lieb haben" I think. The latter can only be used with people and is sort of one step short of "Ich liebe dich". "Gern haben" can be used for all sorts of things just like "mýt rád". For example: Mám rád pivo. You can also use it with verbal nouns: Máš rád cestovaní? (Do you like travelling?)

    So intresting!
    In croatian we have flase friend "laskati" meaning to flatter. "Milost" is grace, "smiluj mi se" have mercy on me.
    "Ljubav" love, "zaljubljenost" being in love, infatuation.
    Of course "mač" sword. "Zaštita" protection, "štit" shield.
    "Juha" is soup. What you called boulion we say "temeljac" and "buljon" is soup with egg mixed in while heating up to thicken.
    "Studentski dom" where students live, "školski dom" where pupil live, "internat" boarding school, we don't have any.
    I could understand maybe couple of words ukrainian because it was super fast, and 75 % slowak. Many words are identical.
