I’m so proud to be Slovenian! I live in Cleveland, Ohio, where there is a tight-knit Slovenian community and culture. All of my grandparents emigrated from there, and I grew up learning how to dance polka, attend “Slovenian school” and a Slovenian summer camp and cook Slovenian foods :) also visited there for my uncles traditional wedding and it was wonderful!
What? Seriously? So many Slovenians in Ohio, I never would have guessed. Do you speak Slovenian?
Jen Mishelin No :( unfortunately Slovenian school didn’t really teach us fluent Slovenian. It was more about the culture and history. I know how to read Slovenian (then again, it’s really not that hard because it’s phonetic lol) and quite a few words but definitely not enough to understand a conversation in Slovenian. I’d definitely love to take a more serious class when I’m not swimming in college work haha

If you ask us, Slovenians, we're central Europe. If you ask any other country in Europe, we're southern Europe... But that's cuz all the others are wrong
how are we southern we are literely the center of all europe
tjašika ma ja, sej to
First, we are not the "literal centre" by any measure. Second if you ask other countries we are EASTERN europe. Central europe is a made up concept by us and the Czech because we very desperately wanted to "escape" the fact that we are eastern europe. But we cant escape it. If you ask germans they wont tell you they are "central europe" but western europe and they will be correct. And the geographical center is in Germany. So stop being such bitches (hlapci) grow a pair and admit we are slavs, balkans and eastern europe.

@Anze Koselj Ne samo to, politiki iz Avstrije, Nemčije, Italije, ki pridejo v Slovenjijo na obisk, bi se morali še naslednjih 100 pokloniti pred spomenikom žrtev 2. Svetovne vojne. Še v srednjem veku je bilo večinsko slovenska cela današnja avstrijska Koroška i cela vzhodna Avstrija. Avstrijci, ki niso narod so se pritepli iz Bavarske, kot trgovci. Naprimer ime Gradec avstrijski Gradz, so dali ime staro slovenci ki so poseljevali celi vzhodni del Avstrije, visoko do hribovja v osrednji Avstriji. To se v Sloveniji mslo govori in Slovenci tega ne vemo, ker imamo politike ki samo razdirjo med ljudmi.

When people from other countries say that Slovenia is pretty, I actually feel quite proud to be from here😂😁
Slovenia lies in Central Europe (touchy subject :D) and while it is correct that we have some Germanic traditions (our language and cuisine have been influenced by German a bit as well), we are almost purely Slavic. But you did a great job with the video!
P.s. Pencil in Slovene is called "svinčnik" and it is male :D That's right, our pencils have balls.
Mr BuzzKill oh yeah yeah
yeah but the avarege slovenian person has 43% of the r1a (slavic/east european) y-chromosome genpool and only 17% of the r1b (germanic) y-chromosome in his genpool. we are not purely slavic but defenetley more slavic than germanic.
not purely slavic, Slovenians are mixed, some celtic genes, some slavic, roman, teutons (germanic) and some jewish (phoenicians). That's why some slovenians have blond hair and blue eyes and some other have dark hair and dark eyes, some have red hair etc. and many are just a mix of those.

Slovenia is in Central Europe. Not East not south, but Central.
Right! And, Slovenians consider them self culturally as middle European
To clarify my comment; of course Slovenians are slavic (language and a huge part of their culture), but they wouldn't see them selfs as east or south Europeans. A big part of Slovenian culture is more part of middle/central Europes culture, take a walk in Ljubljana and look at the architecture to see what I mean.
Also the mindeset that Slovenia is part of middle Europe was emphasized after the independence of Slovenia to distance themselves from Belgrade. Orientationwise Slovenia wanted to be "more like western/central Europe" so to speak, neighbors like Italy or Austria became mor important in that period.
@@Bluntzngreschtl our culture is slavic but under the 1000 year long German rule it did become germanized not the south part which is slovenia but the north part which is today under austria known as carinthia

Good video! As a Slovene I should add that we speak many languages, most of us speak English and every village has its own accent, really. A person from Primorska (next to Italy) and one from Prekmurje (next to Hungary) could not understand each other if they spoke in their respective dialects.
And one more thing, we go to Brezje to bless our new car, besides other things 😉
Good job.

Maybe younger generations speak English, older generations don't really speak good English. What I find kinda funny is that this generation of 1st graders are the first generation to take English in 1st grade. All of us took English in 5th grade.

One thing I might add: we have a loooooot of forest (like 65% of the country) and our country is very green 🙂

Yes Slovenia it's 65 percentage area are Forest,this makes Slovenija more attractive to the world.... I feel Slovenija.. ..
Quick Fix, You forgot to record that in our forests there are on average lives between 500 and 700 bears (currently around 500), between 50 and 73 wolves, and 20 lynx (14 new will bring this year). All this on such a small surface. In most European countries, don't live that much number of these beasts (animals), if they even have any of them at all. Slovenes live with nature! At least most.
I love the country but holy shit learning slovenian gave me ptsd.
Ohhhh,it's terrible!!! I moved to Slovenia because of my husband and our kids, I started to study Slovenian, I speak 4 languages, but Slovenian languages made me depressed... so many exceptions, no matter how much I try, every time I speak I make a mistake, I decided to give up, I really dislike their language :(
damn, yall are actually learning it. As a Slovenian i feel proud
I mean if youve grown up in Slovenija theme It isnt hard ;-;
Bruh im literaly ten and im already learning german ;-;
@ultra_SANS The unbeatet I mean, it is hard, but it really depends on the person if it's hard for them or not, by it being their native language, the only hard part I'd say about it, is the mess about singular and plural. Also, if you wanna speak formal, you have to know how to form sentences perfectly. I use more of a "home" Type of talk, which annoys every teacher haha. But I really don't like Slovenia, I'm planning to move abroad as soon as I can, cause I don't wanna live here. Sure, the nature is really pretty but like, I'm definitely a city person (I grew up in one) so I wanna move to a bigger city. I love to admire nature, but wouldn't live just in the middle no where with grass everywhere mountains in the back, woods and a lake. Yeah, sounds pretty but not my type of life style
Wait until you start seeing just how many different dialects are spoken in Slovenia.
If it makes you feel any better, even we Slovenes have sometimes hard time understanding each other. :-)
Slovenians are Slavic. Of course before and during WW2 they was obligated to speak German or Italian. They was even punished if they were heard to speak Slovenian so it was language spoken at home. But Slovenia is small so people still speak/ understand German or Italian and younger generations mostly English.

Well if you look at it from a historical standpoint slovenia could be classified as germanic as explained in the vid. Btw a part of Germany located in the north - East, western pommerania (where I am from^^) ,can be classified as slavic historically speaking
I'm Canadian with Slovenian parents who immigrated in the 1951. In my youth I myself came to an assessment that the country had Germanic influences and expressed this to my Father. That would never happen again and it is most certainly Slavic.

It's a pretty complex topic for a foreigner to try to explain….so let's just make it clear, we are definetly Slavic , but in terms of our character and culture it's safe to say that we have some Germanic traits, there is also some Italian influence especially in the West and Southwest of the country. We are sort of considered 'Germans of the Balkans', if you ask our Slavic neighbours south of us, they will often say that we are reserved or maybe a bit more rational&orderly than other Slavs in the Balkans. There is some truth to this. Even our most famous architect Jože Plečnik had a vision of Ljubljana as small Athens, because he noticed that the city was starting to look too German/Austrian...so he wanted to bring back that Mediterranean feel.

Of course they are Slavs. The colloquial Slovenian vocabulary had a lot of German words, in 19th century almost half but today probably less than 20%. But that’s not surprising as Slovenia was part of German states like Holy Roman Empire and Austria for more than a thousand years.
In fact, in German language there are more slovene/slavic words then the other way around ...
Well Slovenians are Slavs but becouse of Austria and Germany we've strong germanic routs:)
Also it depends in which part of Slovenia you are, in Styria(Slovenian) or Carinthia a lot of the words are german and some people even say "Serbus"(Its like basically slovenian version of servus) . But if you go to Ljubljana there is a lot less german words
Examine surnames. Then bark.

As someone of Slovenian descent, it is nice to see people realizing the beauty of Slovenia and seeing it talked about since I don't see many videos made about it
I am Slovenian too. The most amazing fact about my homeland for me is, while other countries' anthems talk about war and rise of power and stuff, Slovenian anthems is a few verses of a poem called Zdravljica which basically means A toast, as in cheers. And it speaks about how all nations should be equal and each others neighbor rather than foe. And the whole poem of Zdravljica speaks about wine beautiful girls, having fun and friendship.
Another cool things is that Slovene language has not only plural and singular, but "dual" as well. Yep! We speak differently if something regards one person, 2 or 3. Who would have thought that this robust sounding family of slavic languages could be so romantic. :)
Yeah and fun fact - the author of our national anthem 'Zdravljica' was an alcoholic in his later years and he died from cirroshis. He was the greatest slovenian poet tho.. we even celebrate Prešernov dan (Prešeren day) every year on 8 February, which is marking the anniversary of his death in 1849... he wrote Zdravljica in 1844 and it was published in the year before his death -1848 ....btw, dolenjska, moja deželaa

@Miki Mouse actually it wasnt consider that not even close. Western europe was considered western as they aligned themselves with US in times of cold war. The estern block belong to USSR.
Yugoslavia however did not align themselves with any of the two block. Even more, Tito lead the effort and successfully created what became known as the Non-aligned movement (NGM ) or 3rd block, a unity of countries all over the world that didnt chose a side in the cold war. Some of the other countries in this block included India and Egypt.
The movement still exists today encompassing almost half of UN nations.

I visited Slovenia a few years ago and i fell in love! If anyone asks me ideas on where to travel i'm definitely going to suggest Slovenia ❤️ I stayed in the lake Bohinji area, it was amazing 😍
Actually Slovenia is in central europe or to be more correct, its in the southern part of central europe just like Hungary, not southern europe as for the Language thing yes the language is Slavic But as culturaly I say we are very culturally Austrian, Germanic and you can see the effect of being under Austria-Hungary / Habsburg Empire control to this day. (But the last part is my opinion)
Shiny umbreon Germanic does not equate to national socialist, you idiot. Are you just going to erase a millennium of our own history because of a few decades of rule under some communist balkanegroe? The fact is, we are as Slavic as we are Germanic.

As an austrian I rather would say, that the austrians are more of slavic heritage. Many austrians have slavic names.
Yet you're not slavic since your native language is germanic.
@@zan6518 I'm talking about the heritage. Many austrians have slavic names. In Vienna every second guy has a czech name.
@@zan6518 Not speaking a Slavic language doesn't mean not being Slavic. Look at Hungary. They're Slavic despite their language
Lepi pozdravi iz Slovenije! 😁
I'm from Slovenia and I love it and I am proud to be from small but still very beautiful and peaceful country! 😎🇸🇮
I have been to Slovenia and loved it. People were very friendly. After the virus my wife and I would like to rent an
apertment there and spend summer there
May I ask a political question.
Countries in the Balkans are Slavic. Thye seem to have separted based on religous lines; Muslim, Easter Orthodox and Catholic
My confusion is about Croatia and Slovenia. Both are Catholic. So why are they 2 countries and not one. I know there is reason.
Please educate me on history
@@KongSunWu it's rather simple actually, while we do have the same religion, we speak very different language. Croatia, BiH and Serbia all speak some kind of Croatian (though Serbia and BiH use Cirilica like Russians), while we Slovenians speak slovenian, which is very different and more difficult.
P.S. Slovenia is more and more atheistic anyway. We don't give to much on religion nowadays.
I'm from slovenia,you just inspired me to go to one of those places,tnx fo reminding me.hvala
Im from Slovenia. Even tho that our country is small we have so much to show

Just to help you, I'm from Slovenija and - Slovenija is SLAVIC! :)

Amazing video. You seemed to have really put some effort into it and I’m glad we’re getting more worldwide recognition. I appreciate every single thing about my country, and I always will. Go Slovenia! Lajkejte, če ste tud vi SLO 🇸🇮👊
There’s this one thing though - we are Slavic in every aspect, and every little trace of the painful Germanic pressure is banished from our land. We fought valiantly to set ourselves free from the germanic oppression and considering us as non-slavs is a grave mistake. Great video otherwise.
It’s good Slovenia has decolonized from Germanic influence
I'm a Slovenian and I approve this message 😉
It's slovEnia not slovAYnia ;-;
Great video tho 😂💓
@Doy2point0 I meant the pronounciation
@Doy2point0 bruh ne. Pojdi na Google pa išči Slovenia pronounciation. Y'all wrong

It is slavic, trust me I am slovenian!
Reku je da je jezik slovanski, obicaji pa germanski....
Kultura je tudi slovanska, ravno zato sem to napisal!
Hej oalaoa
@@tan3188 kultura je bolj germanska kot karkoli druzga. Kadarkoli grem po ex jugo drzavah ne vidim nobenih podobnosti razen jezika. Tudi delovna vnema je germanska ali pa reci pisi centralno evropska. Juzno vse langzam in pa vse je takoj dobr medtem ko tu pac ne...

Tnx for sponsoring my country.
Slovenian here, raised in the US. Great commentary, esp with respect to linguistic influences. Most people get Slovenia confused with Slovakia. So thanks for that. The country offers a warm welcome to those willing to travel there, with the Alps in the north being a particular draw.
It's rife with mistakes.
Language is Slovenian :) ,other than that you got most of it right :) . The % forrest is 2nd to Finland. We are great in sports, food and wine. :) Come and visit!
The Triglav Translated: Three-
Head is named that because i’ts made out of three mountains
slavic god triglav the name is much more ancient than the mountain
It's*
I'm Brazilian but One's of my dreams is visit Slovenia one day, also loves Croatia but Slovenia is an "apple in my eye".
Man, you are absolutely hilarious 🤣, you display the informations in a very funny form.
GERMANIC country??? NO!! Definitely not germanic jebemti .
