    3:22 The first world was loaned from English and all the other words were loaned from Romance languages. None of the Russian words you showed are of Slavic origin. 3:53 "Фреска" doesn't not translate to English as "fresh", but rather "fresco", the painting style. The translation of "fresh" to Russian is "свежий" an actual Slavic word. In Russian, adjectives can't end with whatever; they have specific endings for gender, number, and case. If an adjective from another language is loaned into Russian, a suffix is added. Foe example, Western European languages' "molecular" translate to russian as "молекулярный".

    Beautiful video. In terms of etymology and vocabulary, Portuguese and Russian have things in common. In syntax, Portuguese does not conjugate verbs and has prepositions, Russian does not use prepositions, it uses case grammars, it conjugates verbs and nouns and adverbs like Old Slavonic and even Old Kurganian, Russian and synthetic in syntax, Analytical Portuguese. Portuguese has an accentuated nasal sound, Russian has an intense guttural sound, both have the common labial and palatal sound. It's an interesting and cool video. I feel and see a lot of dengos and affections between Russian and Portuguese speakers who love each other very much and are passionate about each other and value the Kurganian past in common even though they are distant cultures, ancestrally they are very distant and sister cultures.

  • @pierreabbat6157
    @pierreabbat6157 Před 15 dny

    All those cognates are borrowed. How about três/три, sétimo/седьмой? Portuguese "nh" and "lh" sound the same as Russian "нь" and "ль". The reason they're transcribed with a superscript 'j' in Russian is that they are just two of many soft consonants. Also, consonants before 'е' in Russian are usually soft, which I didn't hear when you pronounced them. How close does Portuguese sound to Polish? Polish has nasal vowel phonemes, though just two (as did Proto-Slavic, though they don't always correspond).

    As a Portuguese native speaker, I don't find them similar at all. Regarding vocabulary, words like 'Computer,' 'Professor,' 'Thermometer,' and 'Museum' are also present in Spanish language. It is an over exagerating that you are saying that portuguese has a slavic influence. You should educate yourself a lot more before saying things like that.

    • @PolyglotMouse
      @PolyglotMouse Před 15 dny

      Does being from the Indo-European language family not count as having influence? I guess this could be subjective, but I believe so. They have a lot of cognates because their ancestor languages interacted.

      @@PolyglotMouse Portuguese is a Romance language, while Russian is a Slavic language. Personally, I sometimes find that some Balkan languages, especially Montenegrin with its Balkan accent, sound similar to Italian. I often hear them in my country, and I don't know why, but when I hear them from far away, they sound like Italian. The same goes for Estonian, which sounds a lot like Spanish from Spain when heard from a distance. You can even check it out on CZcams; it's amazing how similar they can sound. However, while Portuguese and Russian might sound somewhat similar, they are not alike at all in terms of language structure; it's only the sound.

      I believe he wanted to say that both Russian and Portuguese have shared vocabulary from indo-european roots, this is just one more reason for them to sound similar. Yet he gave bad examples, because this words did not entered Russian and Portuguese directly from Indo-european root, some of them are brand new words. Mãe, pai, regar (com água), tu (pronome), um, dois, etc. would be better examples of true indo-european words that made into nearly all european languages such as Russian, German, English, Latin and Portuguese. Pra mim que sou brasileiro, PT-PT parece um pouco com Russo. Certeza que é porque não estou acostumado com os sons, não tenho o ouvido treinado pra diferenciar. Obviamente entendo 99% do vocabulário lusitano, mas se escuto os sons separadamente não saberia dizer, isso é Russo, isso é Português. É como os espanhóis que não escutam a diferença entre avo, avô e avó. P

      As a Spanish speaker, basically because the Romans took the Greek vowels and most consonants, then sent them to Hispannia. Greek lacks some specific consonants but has exactly the same vowels. robot says: Consonants in Greek but not in Spanish: Theta (θ): Represented by the letter Θ (theta), this is a voiceless dental fricative, similar to the "th" sound in English "think." /Note: Spanish does have that sound, but only in Spain. For both Z and C+e(ce), C+i(ci). Chi (χ): Represented by the letter Χ (chi), this is a voiceless velar fricative, similar to the "ch" in the German "Bach" or the Scottish "loch." /Note: Spanish does have that sound. Spain uses the same sound. Latin America has variations. Gamma (γ) before front vowels (e, i): Represented by the letter Γ (gamma), this is a voiced palatal fricative, similar to the "y" sound in English "yes" but more fricative. Consonants in Spanish but not in Greek: Palatal Nasal (ɲ): Represented by the letter ñ, this is a palatal nasal consonant, as in the word "niño" (child). Voiced Dental Fricative (ð): Represented by the letter "d" between vowels, this is similar to the "th" in English "this," found in words like "cada" (each). Voiceless Dental Fricative (θ): In Castilian Spanish, represented by the letter "z" and "c" before "e" or "i" (like in "zapato" or "cielo"). Note that this is the same sound as Greek "theta," but it is not present in all Spanish dialects (notably absent in Latin American Spanish).

    In the phonology chart shown for portuguese, the alveolar lateral liquid is actually a dark/velar ɫ for most european portuguese speakers, which is a similarity it has with russian. Filho doesn't have /j/, the digraph lh is /ʎ/, although, it can be /j/ in some brazilian portuguese dialects. You can't drop the indefinite article in "tenho um gato", well, you can, but it makes gato sound either like an adjective or that you're speaking brazilian portuguese, I'd say. Also vais isn't spelled like that, and we almost never change the word order when forming questions, so it'd be much more natural to just say "(tu) vais viajar?", the word order is the same, the intonation just changes. Good work tho 👍

    "speech therapy helps children and adults speak clearer" is a MASSIVE understatement. It help paralyzed people, stroke survivors and cancer survivors (thyroid cancer, for example) speak again. You can have a huge portion of your brain literally wiped out by a brain hemorrhage and only be able to utter "blueblebllrlrbl" and not be able to tell a carrot and a cabbage apart and speech therapy might help you speak again. Granted, in many cases it goes in tandem with medical procedures and IT workers who help design and program alternative methods of communication, but linguistic analysis is one of the main factors of success.

    3:18 it's not only that knowing a specific rule helps you conjugate a verb, it's rather getting used to the pattern. E.g. children know nothing about grammar conjugations, yet they conjugate correctly due to the natural feeling of how to use the language through patterns. Languages are about patterns, not grammar tho. Anyway, I appreciate if people enjoy learning about stuff so keep going.

      ​@@cheerful_crop_circle The perception probably depends on what your native language is. When I hear Russians speaking German, I notice they tend to diphtongize a lot, like "ye" instead of "e", "uɐ" instead of "u" and "oa" instead of "o", something that Japanese speakers don't do. Also, slavic speakers tend to pronounce postalveolar fricatives way more in the back of the mouth than Koreans or Japanese.

      @@ronin667 Russian people pronounce "e" like normal "e" without palatalization/sounding like "ye" or "i" like normal "i" without sounding like "yi". Russian speakers mostly palatalize and soften in their own language. When it comes to Russians speaking other languages, they dont palatalize and dont use mitigation at all. I dont know where you got that impression (it also depends on the individual accent). As for the the other thing you said , yes , you are right that Slavic speakers pronounce sounds more from the back of the throat/mouth compared to Korean and Japanese speakers

    For me its also the grammar parts that are the most interesting. I think thats what makes languages so interesting and unique. Sure.. vocab is unavoidable and its necessary but GRAMMAR is the fun part. As you said. Its like a giant puzzle and it is grammar what sets the rules! Also I am fortunate enough to never having had any issues with understanding grammatical concepts which imo makes learning multiple languages much easier. I get that it might be boring for a lot of people though.
