I know Irish is obviously not a Romance language, but a large influence on Ireland’s native vocabulary, music, dance, and overall culture (and historic bloodlines, even) is from the Iberian Peninsula, predominantly Spain, as it’s not that far to the south. Many of their words resemble Spanish words, even if the pronunciation & grammar sets it apart from true romance languages. For example, ‘the horse’ in Spanish is _el caballo_ and in Irish, it’s _an capall_ -so pretty close. Even the Irish word for ‘Spain’ is _Spáinne_ which is more or less pronounced like _España_ (minus the starting ‘E’). Or the Spanish _rey_ (‘king’) is _rí_ in Irish. Many words are similar like this, especially the numbers: Uno-aon (h/een) Dos-dhá (doe) Tres-trí (tree) Cuatro-ceathair (caw-hair) Cinco-cúig (coo-eg) Seis-seisear (“César”, lol) Siete-seacht (shocked) Ocho-ocht (oaked) Nueve-naoi (nee) Diez-deich (deck)
The similiarity is not due to Spanish influence on Irish, it’s because Italic (the branch of the Indo-European languages Romance languages are the only remaining members of) and Celtic languages are comparatively pretty closely related to each other on the Indo-European family tree. It is hypothesised the split pretty late from each other
Actually Celtic influenced a lot the romance languages, i'm brazillian and portuguese is basically latin spoken by the gaelic people, same thing with France which was literally the home of celts, same thing with Italy aswell, i just don't know about spanish, i can literally tell which sounds in portuguese and french comes from welsh for example, its a mutual influence.
In Romanian, the pronunciation is identical to the others, but due to the influence of other languages (Slavic, Turkish, Uralic, etc.), the writing is very confusing for speakers of any other Romance language, but when it comes to speaking it is very similar. But as a speaker of Brazilian Portuguese, I find French very strange, whether to write or speak, as it was influenced by Germanic languages. 
One theory states than french was influenced by celtic languages, the current territory of france had gaullish (a celtic language) as a spoken language
@@AviSchwartzmanC'est vrai, plus de 1000 mots du dictionnaire français viens des Gaulois (langue Celtes des Gaules).

Great video! Personally, I would’ve put "fēlēs" for cat for Latin and added cattus as the cognate which developed later on. Although there is a distinction between the two words, fēlēs is the most common and standardized word for cat in classical Latin, cattus first appears in writing around 75 AD, so toward the end of classical Latin, and is still seldom used at that point by authors, the distinction between domesticated cat and tomcat comes quite late in Latin’s linguistic history.
In Latin Fēlēs was used for domestic cats and Cattus for wild cats, curiously , in vernacular romance, it turns backwards, using fēlēs for wild cats and Cattus for the domestic ones.
In Spanish, another way of naming a cat besides "gato" is "felino" but it's too formal and is also used to describe lions, tigers, leopards and cats. Therefore, "gato" is much more common.
In french for red, we have rouge and also Vermeil which is close to the portuguese word vermelho We have also the word Squale for Shark just like Italy with squalo
Nosotros fuimos los que les dimos al Occidente alfabeto, religión, ley, esquema financiero, arte y filosofía. Un verdadero occidental es un latino, en el sentido amplio del término. Los del Norte son simples imitadores. Incluso para un romano tener aspecto germánico era considerado desventajoso, muy blanco equivalía a bárbaro sin cultura.
It's incredible how in Western Europe all the latin countries were grouped together and they developed such different words. Meanwhile Romania is the Est is like: Hello my fellow invaders. No thanks I don't want to learn your language.
@@MsMRkv In terms of percent of vocabulary coming from Latin yes, but none of these languages have a grammatical structure even remotely similar to Latin, whereas Romanian grammar is almost the exact same as the grammar of ancient Latin. By vocabulary - Italian is the most latin , by grammatical structure - Romanian is the most latin.
Negro also exists in portuguese, and it's always used as an adjective, unlike preto, which can be used as noun and adjective. Same goes for alvo, which is the adjective-only version of white. Negro however, is mostly used in a racial context, and alvo is rarely used (at least in Brazil).
en español es al reves, ya que negro es un color mas , pero prieto tambien es un tono de piel oscuro, pero se dice de manera despectiva en muchos casos
In Italiano abbiamo anche il termine “ceruleo”, anche se è usato meno spesso ed è più arcaico di blu, il quale ha tantissime denominazioni: esiste azzurro, che è un blu più chiaro; celeste, il quale è simile al colore precedente, ma persino più chiaro, ed infine indaco, che invece tende verso il viola.
En español se usan otras palabras para referirse a un animal específico muchas veces como recursos literarios o ciertos contextos. Para referirse a un perro específico, se le llama el "can", también usamos "escualo" para referirse a un tiburón particular o grupos de tiburones.
Los canes son una familia de animales, no un animal en concreto. El zorro o el coyote son canes o cánidos también. ¿Se puede llamar a un perro can? Sí, pero igual que se le puede llamar ave a una paloma, o leguminosa a una guisantera.

In portuguese from Portugal dog is "cão", plural "cães" from latin "cane(m), canes". The "ã" has a nasal sound in substitution of the "n" letter.. But in Brasil "cachorro" means a dog since is puppy to old dog. The word "cachorro" comes from the Latin "catulus", after passing through Basque, which changed its ending to -orro. Back in Rome, it meant “cub” - the baby of any animal. Strictly speaking, it can be used for all baby mammals.
Yes, actually, the name of Islas Canarias (Canary Islands) comes from the Spanish word _can_ for dog. So Islas Canarias is something like Islands of the Dogs.

It would be interesting to point out words that are different between Latin and the Romance languages. Numbers in particular are extremely close between the Romance languages and to Latin.
Fun fact: the word blau (blue) exists in portuguese only for vexilology: A casa de orleães e Bragança formada pós casamento da princesa Isabel tem um escudete de blau em seu brasão
Many Italian words derive from Norman and Lombard/Germanic.Germanic words are immediately recognisable, they mostly refer to warlike actions 🤣 For example: guerra,zuffa,faida, spaccare, strozzare,arraffare,trincare ecc
Più che altro, in certe zone del nord Italia vi sono influenze grammaticali tedesche (come il porre l'articolo davanti al nome), anche il dialetto ha un che di germanico, con tutte le umlaut varie (in Emilia c'è la A con l'anello tipo in Scandinavia e anche lì si legge O). Penso al fatto che il termine 'immondizia' al sud è 'monnezza' 'munnizza' e al nord 'ruzia' 'rutt' 'ruff' (con la umlaut), le ultime due al maschile anziché al femminile.
@@alicesacco9329 L' articolo si mette davanti al nome in tutte le lingue romanze eccetto il rumeno. Il latino non lo aveva, la sua nascita e la posizione davanti a nome non è di influenza germanica ma greca. Il greco classico infatti aveva l'articolo davanti al nome e questo ha influenzato sia le lingue romanze che germaniche.
Spanish, Portuguese and Italian can't always keep up, but they somehow managed to do so throughout centuries, French and Romanian though, two edges of diversion. It's impressive. Very rich video and material. Just a reminder: this was based upon NATIONAL latin Languages, we still have Romance in Switzerland, Catalan, Asturian, Canarian, Galitian, Aragonese in Spain, Sardo in Italy, Provence language in France, Dalmatian in Croatia, Ladino among sephardite Jews(which originated in Portugal and Spain but spread around the world, especially in Poland), so yeah, no wonder they originated from such a large empire as the Roman Empire, cause all these languages are so many and they are all spread across the globe. I am glad that Romanian wasn't forgotten amongst the National Latin Languages, cause people tend to forget this "brother" of ours.
we have Ladino also in some part of Italy in the region of Trentino/Alto Adige (in particular in Alto Adige, where there are the german speakers (the kinda mix a bit, geographically speaking)
This sounds like SICILIAN. Many don't know but Sicilian is actually a language to itself, which influenced in the middle ages the Tuscan language from where Italian comes from. But Sicilian language remains more close to Latin and to all the others romance languages then to Italian. Week days in Sicilian; Luni, Marti, Mercuri, Jovi, Viniri, Sabatu, Dominica. Ti say up in Sicilian we say Susu, And down Jusu.
in portuguese: segunda feira, terça feira, quarta feira, quinta feira, sexta feira, sábado e domingo. Colloquially we just say segunda, terça, quarta, quinta e sexta.
in French we can also use the word “squale” instead of “shark”("requin" in fluent French). The word "requin" comes from the word "quin", an ancient Norman word (a French dialect) which gives rise to the word "chien"(dog) today. In the literal sense the word shark means "sea dog" (because of their large teeth they have been compared to dogs).
Nice video but a few things that could be better on the Portuguese section: in the color grey, although “cinza” can be used and is a correct term, an even more correct term would be “cinzento”, since the word cinza itself means ash, although local people often use it as a double meaning to refer to the color as well since ashes are grey; in the pink color “Rosa” is also a correct term but an even more correct term would be “cor-de-rosa” since the word “Rosa” itself means the flower rose but is often used as a double meaning as well; in the dog section, “cachorro” is an incorrect term as in European portuguese it means “hot dog”. “Cachorro” only means dog in Brazilian Portuguese, so the correct term would be “cão”. Hope that helped a bit 😊
I thought the same, the most standard way of saying dog in portuguese is "cão". I mean, "cachorro" is not wrong but it's predominantly brazilian, whereas "cão" is shared by both Portugal and Brazil, plus just for the sake of argument it would be more coherent to use cão since "cachorro" is of Basque etimology so yeah
In italian exist the term "Ceruleo" derived from caeruleus, today is really rare to use it, (blu is more common) it literally means "as the colour of the sky"
Stop putting non-indigenous animals. Of course it will be elephant in all languages.. its not like they have a long relationship to start calling it otherwise.
Not true, Romans knew of elephants, just ask those who fought the Carthaginians wh fought them 😂😂 but in all seriousness, Romans conquered a lot of the old world, kept all kinds of animals. More recent words have a tendency to be more different, as they may not have entered all romance languages through Latin.
3:27 In Portugal, we use the word "Cinzento" instead of "Cinza", because the latter can be confused with ash, which is spelled the same way. Great video overall, though.
Actually CATTUS (Cat), while in Romanian its translated as PISICA describing rather a female cat, a male cat in Romanian language is translated as COTOI which brings it closer to the Latin CATTUS.
@@mirceapaul9724 Cotoi used to be quite common in the past until 1920's just as the latin muier (muieris) in romaniain MUIERE was used instead of femeie.
I was hoping for some insights into the branching of grammar and structure, and other influences (e.g., Arabic in Spanish), not a mere comparative vocabulary.
In this case all words shown come from Latin so no Arabic influence here, the biggest hint in Spanish to know if a word comes from Arabic is the prefix 'al' which is the article in Arabic but got included in the word when passed onto Spanish. (Alhambra, Alcantarilla, Almohada, etc.)
@@alfrredd For sure. My complaint is that the focus of the content falls short of an ambitious title. Mikhail Petrunin's massive (but not expensive) book, "Comparative Grammar of Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, and French" treats the subject with the proper breadth, I think.
5:42 In French, the real word is Goupil, but after a story called " le Roman de renart", written in the 12th century, in which a Goupil is called Renart, the French changed the word Goupil to renard and today we don't use Goupil at all.
In Spanish we also hace the word 'can' for dogs, not only 'perro'. In Argentina we also use 'urso' sometimes, but I guess it can be Brazilian influence.
In portuguese we have the word "cão" and "cachorro". Both of them are pretty common in brazilian portuguese. We usually use them interchangeably but in some regions (in Portugal, I believe) cachorro goes for smaller dogs/puppies and cão goes for any dog. We also have the word "filhote" to refer to puppies, which is the most used and comes from the word filho/hijo Filho - te
As you can see, none of the languages were faithful to Latin in that word. Languages tend to "lend" words from other languages, perhaps that's why French and Italian are similar to Germanic languages in that word
c’è da dire che comunque se gran parte delle lingue europee prende le parole latine al caso nominativo, le lingue neolatine tendono di più a prendere dall’accusativo. Da qui si capisce effettivamente quale sia la lingua che si evolve e quali sono le lingue che prendono parole

NICE VIDEO ! In Romanian, for the cat, apart from "pisica", we also have "FELINA", but it is generally used for the whole family of wild and domestic cats! Or "COTOI" for motan (male cat)!
Curiously, in Spanish "felina" is the feminine word to refer to a feline, be it a tiger, lion, linx, cat, and etc. (That is the same thing you said, only in a different grammatical gender).

From what I learned the word bleu in French is actually of Germanic origin, from the word "blao" (meaning: shimmering, lustrous). French in particular is influenced quite a lot by Germanic languages. The English blue, Dutch blauw, German blau, Norwegian/Danish/Swedish blå and Icelandic blár are also from the same Germanic roots. Originally, the Frankish kingdoms covered a lot of Germanic territory, and thus also were influenced by these languages. Later, large parts of Italy were also part of the "Holy (German) Roman Empire".
"Negro" is also used in Brazil for black, but it has a more racial context. In the past, it was common to use "negro" to refer to people of African descent, "preto" was used as a racial slur. A few years ago this was reversed (I'm going to be 20 and until I was 10 it was normal to wear black and today it's the opposite), using "negro" became an insult and "preto" is the term to refer to black people. But the context doesn't help either. "Preto" is used to refer to color while "negro" is used more to refer the dark.
Back in the day “negro” was considered the insult and “preto” was the socially acceptable substitute. And when I say back in the day I mean like the 1920s and later like when Vargas was the president.
acho que você quis dizer "to use 'negro'" porque "to wear black" significa vestir/usar roupas pretas. Como o verbo usar pode significar tanto "to wear" quanto "to use" provavelmente o tradutor se confundiu.
Ué, dá pra usar ambas as palavras de forma perjorativa mas não quer dizer que hoje sejam ofensas raciais. As pessoas costumam falar "sou preto/negro" e "ela é preta/negra" de forma natural, mas quando é pra ofender também podem ser usados assim como recentemente começaram a usar "branco" e "branquelo" de forma perjorativa
@@raynusgremont3664aliás, também tem o contexto científico em que usam negro pra juntar pretos e pardos, algo muito comum nas pesquisas do IBGE que é algo que não concordo. Então quando dizem sobre negros estão se referindo a metade da população brasileira e mais os pretos
Vermelho/Encarnado (mostly used by elders) Cinza(not common)/cinzento preto/negro (both pretty common and none offensive) cachorro is more brazilian based, in portugal we'd understand but in fluency and habit we say cão
Acho porque cachorro ,pelo fato de que o Brasil possui mais de 200milhões de falantes de português br do que português pt. Mesmo assim também utilizamos palavra cão.
The words you used for Portugal are actually brazilian. We dont use "cinza" as a color, we say "cinzento". Also dog in Portugal is "cão", we say "cachorro" for puppy.
You can say cerúleo in Portuguese, the colour of the sky, but no one really says it. Also in early modern Portuguese roxo used to be a dark red colour, but now it just means purple. You can say rubro too and it means red. Grisalho is another way of saying grey, used mostly for hair
Bleu, blu, etc. derives from the Germanic form "blaw-blau" and not from Latin. But in Latin there is "flavus" (not "blavus") = "yellow"and it has the same origin as the Germanic form meaning "blue".
@@GholaTleilaxu a faded thing was understood as a light thing, that is, of a not vibrant color. It is not strange that in two different IE cultures, yellow and blue were understood as two non-vibrant colors. However, it is not "my" sentence: it is the common scientific answer.
Unfortunately BR Portuguese evolves faster losing a lot of synonym words used until a few decades ago which are closer to the Latin (although we also have lots of suffixes, prefixes and words with Greek roots)... in the past we used to cal the color red as an adjective "rubro", as well things with grey color "grisáceo". Things with color rose used to be called "róseo" or "rosáceo". A group of five people: "quinteto".
No Nordeste do Brasil, algumas pessoas chamam a cor vermelha de “encarnado” e a cor laranja de “amarelo queimado”. Isso era muito comum no passado, mas hoje só as pessoas mais velhas chamam assim.

I know Irish is obviously not a Romance language, but a large influence on Ireland’s native vocabulary, music, dance, and overall culture (and historic bloodlines, even) is from the Iberian Peninsula, predominantly Spain, as it’s not that far to the south. Many of their words resemble Spanish words, even if the pronunciation & grammar sets it apart from true romance languages. For example, ‘the horse’ in Spanish is _el caballo_ and in Irish, it’s _an capall_ -so pretty close. Even the Irish word for ‘Spain’ is _Spáinne_ which is more or less pronounced like _España_ (minus the starting ‘E’). Or the Spanish _rey_ (‘king’) is _rí_ in Irish. Many words are similar like this, especially the numbers:
Uno-aon (h/een)
Dos-dhá (doe)
Tres-trí (tree)
Cuatro-ceathair (caw-hair)
Cinco-cúig (coo-eg)
Seis-seisear (“César”, lol)
Siete-seacht (shocked)
Ocho-ocht (oaked)
Nueve-naoi (nee)
Diez-deich (deck)
Fun fact: Celtic and Italic languages split very late from each other in the Indo-European family tree of languages
The similiarity is not due to Spanish influence on Irish, it’s because Italic (the branch of the Indo-European languages Romance languages are the only remaining members of) and Celtic languages are comparatively pretty closely related to each other on the Indo-European family tree. It is hypothesised the split pretty late from each other
As other said, these words are cognates and not borrowings, due to italic and celtic languages splitting later.

Actually Celtic influenced a lot the romance languages, i'm brazillian and portuguese is basically latin spoken by the gaelic people, same thing with France which was literally the home of celts, same thing with Italy aswell, i just don't know about spanish, i can literally tell which sounds in portuguese and french comes from welsh for example, its a mutual influence.

In Romanian, the pronunciation is identical to the others, but due to the influence of other languages (Slavic, Turkish, Uralic, etc.), the writing is very confusing for speakers of any other Romance language, but when it comes to speaking it is very similar. But as a speaker of Brazilian Portuguese, I find French very strange, whether to write or speak, as it was influenced by Germanic languages.

One theory states than french was influenced by celtic languages, the current territory of france had gaullish (a celtic language) as a spoken language
@@AviSchwartzmanC'est vrai, plus de 1000 mots du dictionnaire français viens des Gaulois (langue Celtes des Gaules). Nos langue régionale (patois) sont grandement influencé par le Gaulois, par exemple l'Arpitan (Franco-provençal) est très proche de la langue que parlait les Gallo-romains, la Bretagne par exemple a gardé ça langue Celtique (le Breton).

And we have theword "Griz" too
Great video! Personally, I would’ve put "fēlēs" for cat for Latin and added cattus as the cognate which developed later on. Although there is a distinction between the two words, fēlēs is the most common and standardized word for cat in classical Latin, cattus first appears in writing around 75 AD, so toward the end of classical Latin, and is still seldom used at that point by authors, the distinction between domesticated cat and tomcat comes quite late in Latin’s linguistic history.
In Latin Fēlēs was used for domestic cats and Cattus for wild cats, curiously , in vernacular romance, it turns backwards, using fēlēs for wild cats and Cattus for the domestic ones.
"fēlēs" rather describes the members of the feline family however, it was also used to describe a cat.
In Spanish, another way of naming a cat besides "gato" is "felino" but it's too formal and is also used to describe lions, tigers, leopards and cats. Therefore, "gato" is much more common.
@@jcrivera24 same in Portuguese
And in Romanian, they are calling a cat: "pisica, pisica, pisica"

@@MsMRkv In terms of percent of vocabulary coming from Latin yes, but none of these languages have a grammatical structure even remotely similar to Latin, whereas Romanian grammar is almost the exact same as the grammar of ancient Latin.

Great video. Love these comparisons.
Negro also exists in portuguese, and it's always used as an adjective, unlike preto, which can be used as noun and adjective. Same goes for alvo, which is the adjective-only version of white. Negro however, is mostly used in a racial context, and alvo is rarely used (at least in Brazil).
Alvo do latim "Albus"
en español es al reves, ya que negro es un color mas , pero prieto tambien es un tono de piel oscuro, pero se dice de manera despectiva en muchos casos

@@frapiment6239 Not in most of the Lusophone world (except Brazil and Madeira).
In portuguese from Portugal dog is "cão", plural "cães" from latin "cane(m), canes". The "ã" has a nasal sound in substitution of the "n" letter.. But in Brasil "cachorro" means a dog since is puppy to old dog. The word "cachorro" comes from the Latin "catulus", after passing through Basque, which changed its ending to -orro.

in French we can also use the word “squale” instead of “shark”("requin" in fluent French).

Nice video but a few things that could be better on the Portuguese section: in the color grey, although “cinza” can be used and is a correct term, an even more correct term would be “cinzento”, since the word cinza itself means ash, although local people often use it as a double meaning to refer to the color as well since ashes are grey; in the pink color “Rosa” is also a correct term but an even more correct term would be “cor-de-rosa” since the word “Rosa” itself means the flower rose but is often used as a double meaning as well; in the dog section, “cachorro” is an incorrect term as in European portuguese it means “hot dog”. “Cachorro” only means dog in Brazilian Portuguese, so the correct term would be “cão”. Hope that helped a bit 😊

Cool. 😉 I'm recently interested in romanian languages and finding in them similarities 😊
From what I learned the word bleu in French is actually of Germanic origin, from the word "blao" (meaning: shimmering, lustrous). French in particular is influenced quite a lot by Germanic languages. The English blue, Dutch blauw, German blau, Norwegian/Danish/Swedish blå and Icelandic blár are also from the same Germanic roots. Originally, the Frankish kingdoms covered a lot of Germanic territory, and thus also were influenced by these languages. Later, large parts of Italy were also part of the "Holy (German) Roman Empire".
"Negro" is also used in Brazil for black, but it has a more racial context.
In the past, it was common to use "negro" to refer to people of African descent, "preto" was used as a racial slur. A few years ago this was reversed (I'm going to be 20 and until I was 10 it was normal to wear black and today it's the opposite), using "negro" became an insult and "preto" is the term to refer to black people.
But the context doesn't help either. "Preto" is used to refer to color while "negro" is used more to refer the dark.
Back in the day “negro” was considered the insult and “preto” was the socially acceptable substitute. And when I say back in the day I mean like the 1920s and later like when Vargas was the president.
acho que você quis dizer "to use 'negro'" porque "to wear black" significa vestir/usar roupas pretas. Como o verbo usar pode significar tanto "to wear" quanto "to use" provavelmente o tradutor se confundiu.

A etimologia e evolução das línguas é algo interessante de se pensar
In Spanish we have derivates for all these words:
Cærelus: cielo
Galbinus: galbino
Canis: can
Squalus: escualo
Unfortunately BR Portuguese evolves faster losing a lot of synonym words used until a few decades ago which are closer to the Latin (although we also have lots of suffixes, prefixes and words with Greek roots)... in the past we used to cal the color red as an adjective "rubro", as well things with grey color "grisáceo". Things with color rose used to be called "róseo" or "rosáceo". A group of five people: "quinteto".
Enquanto existir os time de futebol no Brasil a palavra rubro vai continuar existindo kkkkkkk
A cor abóbora tbm usávamos muito, agora usamos laranja.
Brazilian Portuguese is getting easier for us Spanish speakers to understand.
No Nordeste do Brasil, algumas pessoas chamam a cor vermelha de “encarnado” e a cor laranja de “amarelo queimado”. Isso era muito comum no passado, mas hoje só as pessoas mais velhas chamam assim.

How do you say shark in Romanian?
It said Rechin underneath
@@brianwhite2104 Thanks! As a phone user I couldn't see it
The shark in Romanian is „RECHIN”. Romanian is my native language.
I consider french as the most Romantic language. I am currently learning it through Immersive translate. Immersive translate will work if you are trying to learn any foreign language.
You can't read the last 2 because of the recommended video pop-up.
It is very hard to be on a Video about Latin Languages and not go on a rant about Pan-Latinism and how Latins in all the world should learn the language of their ancestors and unite .
