- Domari and Sanskrit are both Indo-Aryan languages. Domari, which is sometimes referred to as Middle Eastern Romani, is spoken by the Dom people, a nomadic group originating from the Indian subcontinent who migrated and settled in the Middle East many centuries ago. In this video we explore some of the commonalities between the two languages, with Shivani (Sanskrit speaker) and Kamal (Domari speaker).

Sanskrit (संस्कृत) is one of the oldest Indo-Aryan languages. It has influenced several Indo-European, Iranian, as well as European languages. It is the primary liturgical language of Hinduism and some texts of Buddhism and Jainism. Today, Sanskrit is still spoken as a primary language in some parts of India. Sanskrit has had a significant impact on languages outside of the Indian subcontinent. Sanskrit manuscripts and inscriptions have been found in China, Indonesia, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Mongolia, Thailand, Malaysia, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Korea, Japan, and other parts of the world. It is very common to find words that are derived from Sanskrit in Chinese, Sino-Tibetan languages, Thai, Khmer, and Lao. Austronesian languages, such as Javanese, Malay, Tagalog, and Indonesian, also derive a portion of their vocabulary from Sanskrit. European languages, including English, also contain words derived from Sanskrit.
Domari is an endangered Indo-Aryan language, which is spoken by the Dom people, primarily in the Middle East and North Africa. It has native speakers in numerous countries across the region such as Azerbaijan, Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Palestine, Israel, Jordan, Egypt, Sudan, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Syria, Sudan, and Lebanon.

So it's fair to state that it's Roma (gypsy) who didn't go to Europe?
Niceee!
Are they Muslim?
Bahador plz a request ,take your time 🙏 but please I want a sankrit videos with all languages from India to English channel🌊🌀 . Bcoz all ,yes all European languages have sanskrit words in it . Lithuania ( god ) = deva , sanskrit = deva
English = 3 (three) , sanskrit = trree
Eng = hepta (7) , sanskrit= septa
Eng = name , sankrit = nama
Eng = cow , sanskt = Gau
Eng = mother , sansk = matra
Italian = argentine (silver ) , sansk= arjun
French= mort (death) , sansk = mrut
This is just the tip of iceberg.
Plz plz plz take your time may be year/s but make sanskrit videos with All European languages . That will attract a lot of crowd both from India and Europe.
One more 😁
Czech = veda (science which means knowledge) , sansk= veda ( knowledge )
Another thing I forgot to write is
The country Syria is pronounced "Ceeria" by us outsiders but the citizens of that country call their motherland as " sooriya " , which means sun 🌞 and the land of sun and guess what Sun is called in sanskrit , yes , exactly , it's called "Sooriya"

As Romani speaker from Slovakia it was easy for me to understand almost 90% of the words :)
Fascinating!
On CZcams we understand some of basic Romani words. I come from a part of India which is 1000 -1200 Km away from where the Romanis are likely to have migrated. Still can understand
@@AjitJoshi686 Are you Marathi?
I need to learn Romani. Where should I go to?
@@mysteriousDSF There is no standard Romani. So it will be different place to place. Modern Languages were standardised first with Grammer, dictionaries, literature, newspapers than later on with Radio and TV news. Romani does not have any such structure.
I am a Assamese speaker. in Assamese 90% word's are Sanskrit 🙏🏻
Well said
Really?
Because both are indo Aryan languages (every language separated from Sanskrit) ,what’s extraordinary in it ?
@@100shreyash oh , so r u fluent in sanskrit?
@@sonasandhuji yes, I am good in shudha Hindi (mostly affiliated with Sanskrit) and Sanskrit.
But that has nothing to do with the claim modern day English is western Germanic language with many words almost 40% words from French and 35% from German still they are separate languages and speaker of one can’t understand other.
I'm a Gypsy from American and I really enjoyed this video and I understood most of the words. We speak them here in America as well.
I'm a gypsy from Romania, and everything they talked about in this video about the similarities between Indian and Domari, I understood everything!
Because all the words are come from Sanskrit ,
as a romania you belongs to sindh, hariyana, western uttar pardesh,gujrat. search your root. your DNA belongs to india.🙏
Gypsies are Aryans that moved to Europe so it shouldn't come as a surprise to you that you understand your mother tongue's cousins.
We're similarities because we share same DNA my Roma brother.
amazing
Nepali here. We branched out of Sanskrit. Similarities with Domari blew my mind. Understood almost all the words.
I think Nepali similar to Chinese

I am also marathi language speaker,when I find this whole video I come to know that some words are very similar to marathi like ,pani,sap,dur, nak, aag ,kan and manus, and some words r similar to hindi like ungli, varsh,dur sap, aag... Obviously sanskrit is mother language of all those Indian languages bt it was really amazing to know that domari is also similar to our languages... Want to know more words from domari...
I agree, it was SO similar to Marathi!
Not true
Sanskrit is very similar to Germanic languages as it was the Invading Aryans who conquered India that introduced Sanskrit which is derived from German. Sanskrit was never an Indian language
Yes, those were Marathi words

Wow! So that's where the word "ignite" comes from. Just found out here that the agni word in Sanskrit you used which is cognate with Latin ignis is how English ignite comes from. Simply amazing 👍
And огонь in the Slavic languages :) I believe the word 'ognjište' in your language comes from the same root.
Yes, nice spot.. To throw in another widespread similarity, there is at 17:00 ašta (Domari), asti (Sanskrit), ast (Farsi), est (Latin), ist (Deutsch) is/ exist (English).. all meaning is/to be/exist.

I'm a native bengali and It's surprising to know these domari words are very close to bangla/bengali and our language is originated from snskrit and much more older than hindi or urdu ❤
Don't disrespect Hindi like that, Hindi is the purest kid of Sanskriti.
because bangla and hindi both originated from sanskrit and no both originated at the same time. i don't know why you bengali have always a way to feel superior there is no need of it. you can respect all.
domari basically uses more similar to hindi than sanskrit. from kan , aag, dur etc
@@friendlyatheist9589 we do respect all languages. Rather, i think hindi/urdu speakers think it in that way of superiority. We Bengalis had to shed blood for our own language, that's why may be we are a bit of conservative about our language.
@shochindas316 afaik bengali and other regional languages hv an intermediate relation with Sanskrit, rather having developed as dialects from prakrit. Prakrit being the predecessor of Hindi in ancient period.
Kan, Manus, dur , churi, nak, sap are the exact words used in Bangla and Domari. It's really fascinating 😀
In Marathi also exact words and same meaning 😊
Ya because Bengali made from Sanskrit
that's why in my DNA makeup there's ancient Greece
I am a roma (Gypsy) from Italy ! mostly of the words spoken , actually I used within my family.
Welcome Domaris and Indians ! Mirè pral (Are my brothers )

@@user-pf4tn2rl9n yeah my ancestors are from Sindh former Dynasty of Raja Dahir, 90% of our vocabularies is based on Sanskrit. But the most Sinti in my Age can't speak their language anymore ...unfortunately!
Romani language is very similar to hindi Bengali sindhi which is shocking given the amount of time Romani lived outside south asia.
Wow, thats totally new thing to me. Feel like I am getting introduced to my long lost cousins. 🙏 I will try to update myself with Sinti, Roma and Dom community and will try to spread this awareness here with my fellow Indians. A small step to give due to our lost family members. May lord Shiva bless you guys with alot of happiness 🙏🙏

The impact of Sanskrit language in other languages is just undeniable! We love to see it!
Yes, Sanskrit is one in the raw.
Yeah Sanskrit came from Iran, including all indian cultures and religions all imported from there
@@rrsharizam who knows, but Persia is not Iran and Iranians are half arabic now (say my iranian Friends). Lol and you didn't export anything, so what! :-)
@@rrsharizam Look at this PDF file supporter cunnnt.. he thinks Vedic culture was born in Iran.. lol.. if this b@stard thinks that then whole of arab is Vedic.. and should be reclaimed as Akhand bharat.. and all the middle east must be converted back to Hinduism & by doing ghar wapsi. 😂😂
@@rrsharizamno it didn't. Vedic language separated from Indo European and entered India. Another branch of Indo European(sister to sanskrit) went to Iran from Pontic Steppes via Central Asia. Don't make up $hit as you go. Just accept your inferi0rity.

Domari is very similar to Gujarati, my native tongue. I live in New York and once on a local train there was a group of Domari people speaking amongst themselves, and I could understand about 60% of the conversation
same with marathi too
As a Marathi native speaker I am familiar with Sanskrit but to my surprise words from Domari are so similar to Marathi and other Indian languages
Yes, Even I see Dom language more similar to Marathi than Sanskrit
Actually I think it seprated during times of prakrit development from sanskrit because he is literally speaking hindusthani (precursor of hindi and urdu) but in very weird accented way.
I am himachalis brought up in maharashtra, I could understand all Domari words easily
That was a very interesting observation.
I am Konkani and I found many domari words to be similar to my language.
I'm a native speaker of Romani and it's amazing how similar our languages are! I could guess almost all of the words correctly.
Me too....

Let’s make a video together Romani vs domari, what do you think ?
I was so amazed with the duo played the word game! Damn so many similarities!!!!!!!!!
In Indian culture, we have a noble saying, "Whole world is a Family". So true in many ways!!
I speak fluent Romany- it is so exciting to understand the Sanskrit words. Sometimes it is easier to understand the Sanskrit words than the Domari words and sometimes the other way around. However, I totally understand both - Sanskrit and Domari. I am so happy to know that the Romany language kept its Sanskrit roots.
Domari is more closer to daughter language of sanskrit like Hindi, Marathi , Gujarati, Bengali ..
This is the most amazing episode till now
Thanks for introducing us about Domari language.
Domari word Bengali word same,,,
Yeah some Domari words I could relate more closer to Marathi than to Sanskrit.
Hindi is a fake language.

How are you surprised bruh 😂 ? You are literally our neighbours .. and sinhala is Dravidian too so.
@Srijesh bhoopati interesting..I just assumed it as it was in the South .. anyway .. Kannada, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam all are Dravidian .. I speak kannada.
@Srijesh bhoopati oh you're one of those nuts that thinks tamil is the oldest language in the world 😂 .. btw if the aryan-dravidian theory is right it doesn't mean humans evolved in tamilnadu 😂 if aryans have central asian ancestry the Dravidians have African ancestry.. so what's this shit about half of the people not being from this country ?
To whomsoever it may concern...
"Aryan migration theory is fake and proven"
And if you can proof Aryan migration theory correct then, one organisation called "Jaipur dialogues" has Indian Rupees 10 million as prize money, you are most welcome to participate with all evidence and take home this big amount.

@Srijesh bhoopati yeah .. you validate your linguistic knowledge using Modi 😂 who is suppose to be what ? a linguist ? and I'm the ignorant prick ? .. as I said if the aryans are Central asians you tamils are African descendants so .. atleast there is the sentinalese Islands people to prove that .. sanskrit is a beautiful Indo-european language with sisters going upto Germany .. I'm a proud kannadiga but also a proud hindu .. you are a delusional victim of Dravidian movement and South separatist propoganda .. we kannadigaas and the telugu people will never support your absurd tamil supremacy fantasies .. f*ck off
I am a native Punjabi speaker and fluent in Hindi. What I picked from Domari language is that most of the words are pronounced excatly the same as in Punjabi language.

You did excellent job Shivani 🙏🏼 made us Indians proud.
Many words same used in Marathi language
majority of the words were similar to marathi :)
The resemblance is so close that its pronunciation is almost like another person from another state of India saying it. The initial migration detail is very helpful. In general it is a wonderful way of bringing people together. Excellent, positive effort - very laudable.

My fascination has always been with the similarities among all the humans especially the languages.. I love this exercise.. I constantly pay keen attention to other languages always trying to find similarities.. I recently learnt that a lot of Finnish words are variants or derived from Sanskrit as well, unlike the popular opinion that Finnish is not an Indo-European language. This shows enough study has not been done
I'm from Indonesia, and I can understand some of the words, because we have the similar words with similar meaning in bahasa Indonesia. I think those words are from Sanskrit. At least three words that i can relate to, bayu (wind), warsa (year but in archaic and special form), and manusia (human).

Is that a derogatory term ? Seems like that Nawar word must be Arabic in India we have a rhyming word Gawar which for a person is derogatory. (There is a vegetable as well by same name)
@@AjitJoshi686 I never thought it was. At least I never used it in a derogatory way.
@@khaledabdullah282 thanks on this, on Wikipedia they say it is derogatory, just checked

OMG this one blew me away. As a languages graduate, I already knew that my native language, Italian, is an Indo-European language, just like its ancestor Latin and its "old, distant cousin" Sanskrit. But wow, Italian and Sanskrit are much closer than I thought. Here's the similarities (SA/DO/IT - ENG translation):
- sarpa/sap/serpe, serpente (snake)
- anguli/ungil/unghia (fingernail)
- agni/ag/igni- (prefix meaning "fire")
- nakra/nak/naso (nose)
- manusya/manus/umano (human)
- treni/tren/tre (three, 3)
- ?/pesom/piselli (green peas)
- kastha/kast/castello (this means "castle" and comes from Latin "castrum", which sounds really similar to "kastha" and refers to Roman forts usually built with wooden walls all around)
- vanya/vay/aria (air. Not so similar, but "anya" sounds like "aria" a little bit)
- churika/churi/coltello (knife, "coltello" comes from "culter", Latin word also meaning "knife", very similar to ENG "cutter" as well. Not sure about this one)

Roma Migration started occurring during Ghaznavid Invasion of India, its common knowledge that scale of Islamic invaders was so large that the huge number of people as slaves from India created as entire race of people.

Surprisingly as a Russian I guessed right half of the words. The other half I could see how we could potentially have related words. Sentences were the hardest.
czcams.com/video/-b-OjaPV4m8/video.html
For your curiosity
Not really that surprising, Russian is a conservative Indo-European language. Grammar is very similar and many words have the same roots.
We are brothers
That’s is because Sanskrit and Russian are very similar, for exp: eto nosh dom (In Russian), Etad Nash Dham (Sanskrit), in English this sentence is “This is my home/residence ” , so Russian and Sanskrit speakers can understand each other at least 60-70% of time ! Interesting right !!
@@ns012k what on earth! 😂 Etat Nash Dham??? That’s not Sanskrit. etad is Sanskrit, the rest is not. The Russian phrase is also incorrect. Russian speakers can not understand Sanskrit 80% of the time! Unless you are reading out numbers from one to ten or something. I am a native Russian speaker, who has studied Sanskrit for 4 years.
Thanks for giving a platform to lesser known and endangered languages. It's truly commendable.

I was hoping someday you include a Roma / Doma language and you finally did 👏
I literally had zero knowledge about both Sanskrit and Domari and watched the whole video because lately I've been very curious to learn about the Romani people and how they lived through their travel from India to Europe. Well done guys 👏 I hope someday you will compare different Romani languages.. It's so underrated and people lack knowledge about the Roma culture.
PS : I love how nobody used the term "Gypsy" which is considered offensive in English. In case people were wondering what Roma / Doma means It's what we know more commonly know as "gypsy" but please use Roma / Romani instead of that's word (It's what that people want to be called).
Peace from France 🙂✌

Great to see lots of word from domani similar to hindi & marathi
domari is basically more close to hindi which is basically child of sanskrit like bengali
As Rromani form România it is very easy for me to understand about 90% of the words
though we grew up speaking Turkoman language in North Iraq, I used to hear Domari spoken by 'Karach' people and always sounded like Indian, as we used to watch Indian movies and picked up some words that also sounded like Kurdish or Persian

Tamil speaker here and I recognized a lot of the words that are similar in Tamizh such as 'dura' vs duraka = far. Very impressed with both of them, esp the young lady who is able to speak a language that has been long called 'dead' (It isn't). Beautiful connection, both of you!
Love, from Sweden!!
In telugu duram = far .
In Hindi, Dur- far
It's possible since there is a lot similarities from the ancient dravidian languages in Sanskrit.
@anon my Hindi language is also filled with urdu, farsi words. zarurat-avashyakta, shayad-sambhavtah, wajah- kaaran, maafi-kshama, istemaal-prayog, qamayab- saphal, ishq-prem, zyada-adhik,sirf-keval. Just because Bollywood promotes urdu in the name of hindi.
@Universe that doesn't justify that Tamil is older than Sanskrit. Yes it is Oldest SURVIVING language and I am proud of it. But Vedic Sanskrit if far older than it, it was spoken even when there was no writing system hence most of its literary work transferred from generation 2 generations through Shrutis(listening).
I am a native Bangla speaker, I was able to get all those words both from Sanskrit and dromani. In fact there are lots of formal written form bangla words almost similar to sanskrit while those words sound very similar to bangla words.
I’m Romani, and I was shouting at my phone like “That Sanskrit word means this!” 😂 Very engaging video!
It's amazing how many languages Sanskrit has given to this world.
Well it is the oldest language!!
True...
Not quite. Sankrit and all these languages have a common ancestor, namely the Proto-Indo-European (PIE).
No actually they both are more like sister languages
@@siddharthpillai8177 Not quite. You are missing the time scale here. PIE is a logically constructed language based on Vedic (most cognates) and other IE languages. Time scale is 3 to 5k years.
Time scale for Domari or Romani should be 1k years.
Since domari is a more recent language, it seems closer to Hindi/other current Indic languages. Sanskrit goes back thousands of years, but a lot of its derivatives are much younger
It's quite obvious for every Indo-Aryan Language to be descending from Vedic Sanskrit.
I find it charming how they assist one another with tips and hints to come up with the meanings. Two very encouraging and knowledgable people. I love these videos Bahador, thank you for making them.
I enjoyed learning about Domani people and their language, its really interesting how similar Domani language is to the modern Indo-Aryan languages in the sub-continent. I really loved Shivani from the Sanskrit and Malay video, she is very enthusiastic and knowledgeable.
When will there be finally a Domari Romani video? Or even Sanskrit, Domari, Romani 🤩
Fascinating! I could understand a lot of Domari
Bahador Sir Please do a Lithuanian and Sanskrit comparison Video Lithuanian is oldest secluded Baltic language it may have a lot of similarities with Sanskrit/Prakrit/Pali
Yes, it would be interesting
This sends me to the floor
Литовский есть Литовский,
Это Индийские языка = Цыганские языка
@R.C. Absolutely incorrect.
@@kc4276 Absolutely incorrect. It's because it was a same language about 10000 years ago. The reason for similarity as pointed out by main comment is because about 5000 years ago sanskrit was separated from rest of these languages and Lithuanian is also similarly very old therefore not experiencing much change and having similarity to sanskrit.
Me being a Sanskrit student for 5+ years, domari sounds very similar. It's great to know about other cultures rather than fighting with differences. Stay safe!
very informative vedio. you did great job bahadur
Bahador - we want more. Keeps like this !! It’s so educative
This is such an amazing concept. Yes showing the commonalities between languages is showing the connection between humanbeings and cultures that have emerged over time.
I am an Indian Syleti (it's also regarded as a dialect of another Indian Language called Bengali) I am actually quite fascinated to see how much Domri is similar to Syleti.
Considering Domri has Indian origin it should not be surprising. Since I am hearing this language for the first time and the language belongs to a different country now, that is why I am shocked. It's wierd how connected the entire world is.
Oy oy bangla er loge oh similar r hindi er oh
It people of this soil, sold as slave's by Invaders .
is being an Indian Syleti different than being from Sylhet, Bangladesh
I think it's the opposite. Indian has domari origin
@@rrsharizam Looklike impossible, Sanskrit have enormous literature,both written and passed down by memorizing from old to new generations, the people from the Indian continent taken for slavery have same linguistic roots.
Interesting! Kiswahili similarly adds a vowel to Hindi words like safari for safar to travel and sanduku for sanduk for box.
So what is especially interesting to me is that despite the geographical distance modern Domari seems to have developed along the same path as other modern north Indian languages which in turn developed from different versions of Prakrit (the commonly spoken later layman's versions of Sanskrit).
Sanskrit is the standardized classical root of those languages, with its grammatical richness and preciseness making it so amazing for both poetry, as well as theological and scientific texts. But in common man's usage obviously over hundreds of years the grammar got simplified, certain sounds modified or dropped completely, first giving rise to the Prakrits and then to the modern Indian languages.
It's just super fascinating to see how languages derived from the same root language but that developed so far apart from each other ended up with so similar or close to identical modern words (like kaan for ear, pani for water, dur for far, manus for man, ungli for finger).
Holyyyyu... wowwww. I learned Sanskrit in middle school, and 20 yeard later, I still remember all word forms and tenses, I loved sanskrit, amazing how similar the Domari is with its root language, kudos to dimari people to retain the language after all these centuries.
I never heard about Domari before. Even never known before about the relation between Romani and Indo people. As a Bengali speaker form Bangladesh. I understood most of the words. Most of the words are very similar to Shangskrit or Domari. Great video. Learn lot of new things👍👍
Great video. It is amazing to note that Sanskrit is so close to the Indo-European and Indo-Aryan languages. Archaic Tamil has no relation to Sanskrit. But you will find traces in Indian tribal languages, Brahui language and the languages of ancient Sumer and the Indus Valley. What a contrast! The invading colonists, the Dutch, the French, the Spanish, the Portuguese, the British, the Danish and the Belgians were all Indo-Europeans and the cousins of the Indo-Aryans. Yet they keep denying that there was no Aryan invasion. Very strange!
Love for people from Indian Origin. Really Proud to have you guys.
I think domari is more closer to Hindi than sanskrit.
P. S. Another great video with two wonderful guests.❤️❤️
But hindi itself is derived from sanskrit.
As far as I can see, the Domari language is more related to the various Prakrits derived from Sanskrit rather than Sanskrit itself. It is maybe due to the the time period in which these people migrated out of India. Unlike the previous populations who might have taken up from Classical Sanskrit or Vedic Sanskrit, this one has the Prakrit as the base language and thus the Prakrit version of words.
I came to exactly the same conclusion.
I couldn't understand what the difference is between being related to Sanskrit and being related to one of the Prakrits?
@@PS-ej2xn like Nose.. Narka is Sanskrit, Nak in Domri, Naak in Hindi, Naaka in Odia
Snake.. Sarpa in Sanskrit, Sap in Domri, Saap in Hindi, Saapa in Odia..
@@tushar4evr776 Thanks, Tushar. I am sure I am missing some important point, but to me, all these seem/sound related to one another.
Prakrit was the language of common people and Sanskrit of elite class ( rulers and priests ) ...this has been the rule since ages .. thus you'll find majority of the words similar to prakrit and prakrit is nothing but easy pronunciation of Sanskrit words .
I'm an Arab guy, but I can speak bahasa Indonesia, the word Manus & Manusya is very close to the word (Manusia) which means Human in bahasa Indonesia, that's a mind blowing! also there's a word in Arabic language which is (Manhus) منحوس which means a person with a bad luck, that's close to the meaning of the word (Human) philosophically because of the struggles he's been through in this life.
the malay 'manusia' is a borrowing from sanskrit 'manusya'. and 'منحوس' just sounds similar to 'manusia' by a coincidence, which is kinda wow
Omg how did I have no idea of this connection. This is fascinating.
Thank you, Bahador for the great work you are doing. I am a linguaphile from the Maldives. I am a native speaker of the language of the Maldives - Dhivehi - which is one of the two Insular Indo-Aryan languages.
oh, never expected to see another Maldivian here. let alone another Maldivian who is a linguaphile.
Ya dhivehi was originally a dialect of sinhala which diverged and became its own language after islamic influence came in the Maldives
We should have a video of Dhivehi, Sinhalese and any other indo Aryan language from India like Bengali or Odia in this channel. It would be so cool
And thus all further scholarly studies into Insular Indo-Aryan should stop right here.
As a Sanskrit student liked this video very much !! Never read about 'Domari' language ! Thank you very much !
just like me
