I want to thank you so much for this video. I am of African descent, living in America. We are learning Armenian and before our language class even began, I prepared with this. Helped immensely! Merci shat!!
Hi! Thank you for this video and your playlist about Armenian, I'm italian but i want to learn armenian 'cause i love ladavina's songs since eurovision, im so happy to learn this language!
Unfortunately that's the same thing for the European alphabet A =/= a B =/= b D =/= d E =/= e F =/= f G =/= g H =/= h L =/= l N =/= n Q =/= q R =/= r T =/= t
Small correction, the IPA letter for Ղղ is [ʁ], it is pronounced like the French R. [ɫ] is the 'dark L' sound found in English, but it is used to transcribe Ղ to Latin for some reason.
thank you for this video, I am becoming more familiar with the alphabet and I am practicing. I am finding a few loan words from Russian. love Armenia and their language from Russia!
Nice to hear that my video is helping you :) Yeah especially more modern words a very similar indeed. It is always nice to find similarities plus it makes learning easier :)
maybe I'm wrong but I think ճանապարհ (tchanapar) means "way". Street would be something like "փողոց" (porots). Anyway thanks for the lessons. I've been learning how to write armenian recently and your videos are very helpful
Whoops, small mistake at 2:37, the letter in brackets is supposed to be ʁ (voiced uvular fricative) instead of ɫ (velarised/pharyngealised alveolar lateral approximant)
Dude…I was born a monoglot American. I learned Chinese, Russian, Arabic, Korean, Hindi, Tibetan, and Japanese so I consider myself pretty good at learning new writing systems. But THIS….bro where do I even begin 😅 It’s been so long since I’ve looked at a writing system and said wtf I’ll do my best to learn this one but I think I have my work cut out for me
I was born in Greece, i live here and my parents are Armenian. I've been in Armenia many times too. However i find the armenian alphabet really confusing, weird and off. I guess it has to do with me being so used to the Greek and the Latin alphabet, both of which are similar.

As a Greek that very recently took interest in Armenian, I have to ask... τι συμβαίνει; 💀I feel like knowing both English and Greek works as a disadvantage when getting acquainted with the Armenian alphabet, since many letters are familiar, but have different sounds.
A vid of me singing in Armenian is getting some interaction recently but I could not read Armenian text, this video is great! Although I still find the alphabets a little tricky 😅
My grandmas armenian and i rlly wanna learn it but its so hard 😭😭 even harder since i have ti learn spanish bc if school as well and cant rlly focus on it lmao
My advice, as an Armenian (Hay), is learn Eastern (Hayeren) Armenian Alphabet first and some basic words and basic vocabulary… After about 3-6 months of regular studying … Start again with Western Armenian… Then after 3-6 months learn Russian. Then go back to Eastern Armenian because you would have forgot it all! And have to start again haha this is so hard
Անդրանիք is this how you spell Andranig? This was my Grandfathers name and also how would I spell my last name I found so many diff variations 😫 any help is truly appreciated! I never got to learn the language. 😔 I would love to get a tattoo in memory of him.
Hey, the correct spelling of your grandfather's name is Անդրանիկ. In the English language, you have two versions of the name; Andranik is the East Armenian version and Antranig is the West Armenian spelling. In written Armenian, though both are the same. If you go to this page en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antranig_Chalabian and then change the language to Armenian you can see the Armenian spelling.
Curious Chris thank you so much I appreciate it! His name ends with a G though and its like that on his grave...does that still mean it is suppose to end with a K?
Hey Amanda, I guess your grandfather or his family came to America many years ago and spoke West Armenian. That is why when he wrote his name in English he spelled it with g as the "կ" in West Armenian is pronounced g but k in East Armenian. The name in Armenian spelling exists only in the version Անդրանիկ which is then just pronounced differently depending on your families origin.
iranian-armenians still use lolik for tomato. actually was shocked when he used it in the video since i expected it too be a hayastanxi eastern armenian
This language have most of polish "rustling and other"'strange"' sounds including Old polish\ukrainian/czech "voiced" "'h"' This Very Unique. In Albanian this same. Polish language isnt Very scary language how many People think. Try learn kaukasic languages. This is hard.

I'm half Armenian and I really would love to learn this language, Armenian is a beautiful language and I love the script
Same 🥹
We can do this 🎉
I was born in Armenia, now live in England, I’ve forgotten the alphabet a bit, thanks so much for making the video!
Thank you for watching :)

She gave me motivation to learn the language so much and also to go there!! Le ley le ley la!!
So strong and powerful letters
Main issue with the alphabet is that most lower case letters are totally different from upper case letters.
Unfortunately that's the same thing for the European alphabet
A =/= a
B =/= b
D =/= d
E =/= e
F =/= f
G =/= g
H =/= h
L =/= l
N =/= n
Q =/= q
R =/= r
T =/= t
@@GoldenGubix I believe the word you're looking for is LATIN. Also, the Greek alphabet also has distinct capital and small forms.
As if D is really similar to d.
You can switch over to russian and become a gigachad.
H to h, R to r, D to d
This video is just AWESOME , explained very well and it's very helpful !!! Thank you 😊 .
im FINALLY starting to learn this language. i love everytime i notice similarities in our languages. love from georgia❤
Մեր ընտանիքում հայեր կան. Շնորհակալություն շատ լավ դասի տեսանյութի համար։
The letters look like mutated u's, n's, and m's.
This is a great video! It will come in handy to teach my son.
Thank you very much! I am planning to do another video soon on how to handwrite the different letters. This might be helpful as well for your son.
I made a new video showing the handwriting ruclips.net/video/BFwfJ3kzw4E/видео.html

亞美尼亞語有一個漫長的文學史，其現存最古老的文學作品是五世紀的聖經翻譯。它的詞彙在其歷史上受伊朗的語言影響，特別是帕提亞語，此外還受希臘語，拉丁語，古法語，波斯語，阿拉伯語，土耳其語和其他語言影響。現代亞美尼亞語有兩種規範的形式，東亞美尼亞語和西亞美尼亞語，兩者都可以用於理解當代亞美尼亞方言。
你好中国朋友，亚美尼亚語说的是四千多年来的。 以前没有土耳其。 土耳其只有九百年的历史，肯定不是他们来影响

The difference between eastern and western armenian frustrates me. Im full armenian and half these items have a second whole other word for them.
:D I can totally agree it is the same for me ;)
yeah, sometimes words can be in russian and not in armenian.

This is very helpful. However there almost needs to be a separate lesson on the differences between the various "R-like" letters: Ղ, Ռ, and Ր.
Ah, thank you, that explains it. I'm learning basic phrases and when I see 'barev' I got confused because the r looks like i

The word nav comes from ancient Greek which was also the ship. Today we say naftis which mean sailor and naftikós which means naval.

Dear Curious Chris, do you have Armenian roots? If not, what motivated you to learn Armenian? :)
Yes I have them and that is part of the reason I like to share some insights into the beautiful language and teach it to others.
The sound keeps disappearing at the middle. What's wrong with it? I hope it can be fixed .Thanks for this grest presentation.
A vid of me singing in Armenian is getting some interaction recently but I could not read Armenian text, this video is great! Although I still find the alphabets a little tricky 😅
You are right the alphabet is not very easy... but great you made the effort to sind :)

How can I memorize the letters? They are too hard
Just do it over and over and over until you memorize it

Start again with Western Armenian…
Then after 3-6 months learn Russian.
Then go back to Eastern Armenian because you would have forgot it all!
And have to start again haha this is so hard
A few corrections:
Ժամ - hour (not "clock")
Ճանապարհ - road (not "street")
Wow there is a lot of letters I am really interested in Armenian culture because they are the nearest people to kurds and we even share one land

Some of these translations are not accurate. For example, clock is ժամացույց, not ժամ.
Lolik is only in dictionaries. Nobody uses it in eastern dialect. Lolik = Pamidor (spoken)
So they use a Russian word there? ( I mean I guess it came there from Russian)
@@Fiorina1000 Armenia was a Soviet country, so till this day we sometimes use Russian words, like xolodelnik(fridge) pomidor(tomato) and so on
