amjan i’ve always thought the same. Every year if someone sings in their native language, i automatically like the entry more

That's why there can't be a European Nation... that's an abomination! Communism fell 30 yrs ago and we need to continue showing respect to the "European nations".

like you i never met a language i did not like but some i positively loved turkish and russian for their musicality and hebrew the language of heaven,and yes also the avar language from dagestan also fascintates me for its incredible angularity
I’m a language addict too, and my faves are Korean, Japanese, Chinese and Hindi! Love them!!
Yeah, it's really nice to see this. But I hope someone can make a video that includes a few of the languages missed in this video. Like Elfdalian, the various Sami languages (it's essentially a language family) etc. I know there's some Uralic languages found in the western part of Russia other then the Sami languages too. And there's various minor languages like Vepsian, Karelian etc in the area around Finland and Estonia.

No no 32. All Slavic languages are basically dialects of Russian, so they cannot be considered European languages. Are you fucking insane man? Turkish and other Turkic languages such as Gagauz and Crimean Tatar have been spoken in Europe for 8 centuries. 20 millions of people speak Turkish in Europe (mostly South-eastern Europe and Balkans) in 2019. Turkish is also only language that’s not officially declared one of 28 languages of European Union despite of being one of the official languages of a member state (Cyprus).

Why српски and црногорски Serbia and Montenegro switched to the stupid Latin alphabet😒 Bulgaria gave an alphabet to the Slavs so that they could write with an alphabet suitable for their language. the same applies to: Czech Republic🇨🇿, Poland🇵🇱, Slovakia🇸🇰, Slovenia🇸🇮, Bosnia and Herzegovina🇧🇦 and Croatia🇭🇷.

Then there's also Sorbian in Germany near Poland (and in Poland too I guess), Rusyn in Ukraine and Balkans, Basque between Spain and France, Aromanian in Greece, etc. etc.
The video also didn't include Frisian, which is close to old English, the West Slavic Sorbian (native to Germany), Rhaeto-Roman which is spoken in Switzerland, several low German language may be called dialects, crimean tatars I am sure also have a language. Due to immigration there are also several mixed languages between European languages and those of immigrants. Yiddish may also be considered a European language, strongly influenced by German a Jewish culture. We could even say that European countries like France have fire territory outside of Europe.

This video deserves as much likes as views. It is the most complete video I've seen regarding European languages.
The maltese is like italian with arab acent, beautiful and melodic indeed.
As a Maltese national, i know that it is based on the magrebi dialect of Arabic but over the years has got Romance influence (mostly Italian) and English influence. Some words are mixed as in they have a semitic article but the word is romance. As a Maltese person, hearing arabic sounds familiar and numbers in arabic are very similar to maltese ones.
@@jeremybarun i was born in Morocco and I'm able to recognize a lot of words, my sister visited Malta once and she said to me that it sounds like Tunisian dialect with Italian influence.
Thanks for putting all the language families together!! Best languages sample video I’ve seen.

I didn’t say he included all languages, just that he put the ones in the same language family together, which is quite rare for these type of videos.
My favourites are Italian, Finnish and Turkish. Maltese, Romanian, Azerbaijani and Kazakh are also really beautiful. My native langauge is Hungarian :)
For me, Hungarian and Finnish sounds similar to Turkish

Because Flemish is not a real language, but more a very strong accent/dialect from the Dutch language. The word Flemish is used only to make people understand that it is the Dutch language spoken in Belgium. But you have a point , they are sometimes very difficult to understand for us Dutch people and it can be considered as a different language :-)
@@aarondelsink5420 Dunno I find them pretty different from each other,maybe because of the different accents.I'm studying Dutch at the moment and planning to start Flemish in the nearest future

What about Eurovision?
After I watched this, I realized that I must study more. It's splendid that you may hear so many different languages in Europe. I'm from China and we only have only Language, which is Chinese Mandarin. On TV, you could only hear host broadcasting Chinese Mandarin for most of time. Of course for some border areas, many minority peoples might use their mother tongues to broadcast as well, but compare with the Mandarin, it's very rare. Thank you very much for your sharing, I learned a lot!

This is an amazing video!
Standard Galician is closer in phonetics to Standard Spanish from Spain (not from America), but words and word forms are closer to Portuguese than most Galician Dialects. Some medieval changes in Spanish happened in Central Galician also (the "c" as "the"), before that Spanish and Portuguese sounded very similar (It´s known because of written grammars..no recorded news :). Portuguese could be for us like a Russian trying to speak Galician. Beware of easy comparisons! It´s interesting in Eastern Europe how very different and neighbour languages sound similar to us. Easy comparisons: Greek is like a Spanish inventing a language, and Albanian a Basque speaker trying to invent an indo-european language. I understood one word in Albanian: autoestrada

@Son of Albania Most of the time we understand each other. But for people who live in the southern parts is difficult to understand those in the northern parts and vice versa. I live in the center so I understand both very well.
@_randidog_ You would think so..If you study the Austrian,English and German historians there are archives in AustroHungary,Venetia and Turkey that proves that our language devires 80% from the Illyrian language,its the only language able to translate the tablets we have..
@_randidog_ Albania aka Illyria never had its own Alphabet or at least its never found and it used Greek and Roman alphabets always..Illyrians were barbarians never known for civilisation but mostly for war..However our spoken language and mythology are 100% in line with those from Illyrians..I can give you millions examples but i lack time..Like the Illyrian king Bardylis which in modern Albanian word per word translates too Bardh= white and yllis=star..Or for our mythology which i have millions examples even to this day..
As a Hungarian they are all Unique 🤍 I speak German and English, but if I couldn’t, I would not understand anything 🤣 my favs are Greek, Georgian, French, Russian 🤗
Hungarian is like Basque : unique and unrelated. Hungarian was used as a weapon in the allied secret services along the Sioux language. 😵💫
@@antoinemozart243 Except that it isnt unrelated. Finno-Urgic.
@@Jaswolfy If you dive deeper Hungarian has a lot of connection with Estonian and Finnish. It's because of the geographical location.
There is a frisian news channel, maybe you can add it then in future videos

can yall provide translations for your languages? i saw this in the asian languages video and i thought ut would be cool if we brought it here! :D
My ultimate favourites are Greek and Georgian. Greetings from Serbia! By the way, what did Serbian and "Bosnian" sound like to you?
Thank you very much. Much appreciated. But can you make a more detailed comparison between Serbian and other European languages, including Slavic ones?
Yeah...and all we re orthodox brother's.....Greece serbia russia georgia romania....
Yes.
@Albanian Patriot name checks out... Btw, i like Albanian.
@Albanian Patriot I don't like Albanian expansionism but we should learn something from albanians.
This is a very good collection indeed! However, some languages are missing, including those with millions of speakers, like Tatar. Regional languages like Ladin or Kashubian do all have their own tv stations as well. On the other hand, as it already had been mentioned there, in Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia & Montenegro they all do speak the same language with minimal variations. If the task was to show languages of all the independent European countries, why not include Andorra (Catalan) or San Marino (Italian)? Still, thank you for the nice job!
I understood perfectly Albanian greek spainish and a little bit of Portuguese and Italian
Cool... so well made!... Love European languages.. so weird and yet so fascinating... also because all of them seem to last firm throughout the centuries, mysteriously! I guess because they all come from Indo-European.. And yet, even with pressure of wars and domination for centuries, they all remain stable and alive, even expand once you have a rich cost :) But hey, in a context and with a bit of special attention, it's actually ok to get some of it, even from languages we/I've never heard ;)
Not all of them are indo-european.
If we include all the local languages within the countries we easily end up with three times more and then it still is debatable with a number of others whether they are dialects or already proper languages.
In Italy we got a lot of proper languages and an incredible amount of dialects. Unfortunately, unlike Spain or Ireland etc, these languages are not officially acknowledged. I personally speak neapolitan, but there's many: sicilian, lombardo, piemontese, Veneto,genovese, sardo, ladino etc. Unfortunately all these languages are considered inferior to italian. Fun fact "Cinderella" was created by a neapolitan poet named Basile.
Greetings from Slovakia 🇸🇰💖
LoVe from Poland:*
so many beautiful languages ^_^
also there are far more languages in europe. for example italy is full of different languages. the language we know as italian is just toskan. there is far more like griko language, sicilian, venetian etc
Yes, but (almost) nobody talk these "languages".
@@israeln.j5955 basque, galician etc also dont speak "many". would be cool to know all this other languages. nevetheless a good video
Amazing and wonderful Europe !!!!
As Czech i dont understand a word in Russian and Bulgarian..its sounds so different to me..well it makes sense cause we're far from each other.. and in other slavic languages some words only. Of course i understand almost everything in Slovak but i had to concentrate to her pronuncation(for me its bit hard to understand) and in Polish i understand like 50% of it but so many sch sounds make it harder to understand. And in Germanic languages i love the sound of Norwegian🔥 and in Romance i like a lot Italian.
Listen to Croatian, Slovenian, Serbian and Montenegrin. They are quite understandable as Polish, although the countries are far. We had to be from the same part of an old Slavic tribe.
komacope well, I understand some words but dont know what they're talking about
OK. I understand Russian, that might be an advantage. Because the newsreader is talking too fast here, try another Russian videos.. The Russian language is much closer to the Old Slavonic. kzhead.info/sun/Z66rprOFhWaHao0/bejne.html
it would be great to see a video like this with American languages, like Inuit, from Greenland and Canada, all the way down to Mapudungun in Patagonia
As a basque speaker I am proud to speak the oldest language of Europe but, of course, I love each and every language of the world and I'd like to preserve all of them
@Gavin Sunderland You may be right as every language is the product of an evolution. Let´s say then that I am proud of speaking the last preindoeuropean language of Western Europe
@@SoulRedness Sorry, but ancient greek is a branch of the indoeuropean family. Basque is a PREindoeuropean language, so it was here in Europe before the migration from Asia that broguht the protoindoeuropean language. Check it out kzhead.info/sun/htmrY8ype4qmlHA/bejne.html
Well not really from Asia, from the Pontic steppe. The most Asian part of the Indo-European homeland is more or less the same bit that allows Kazakhstan to be included in this video, so still Europe technically.
@Gavin Sunderland That´s simply not true and the proof are basques themselves. They can speak the oldest language spoken in Europe that are not related with anyone else alongside with other languages that are Medieval derivations (Others would say degradations or vulgarizations) of Classical Latin. And one of those is way older than French or Spanish despite the fact that those are also native languages and today are read using the same alphabet.
@Gavin Sunderland nice to read that, my friend

Icelandic sounds most beautiful to me. Greek has a great mixture of beauty and strength. Loved hearing all these.
Yes Icelandic is very beautiful, I am from Latvia. Ég er að læra íslensku(I am learning Icelandic) What do you think of Latvian langauge? :) Most people say it sounds Finnish mixed with German and Slavic. While Lithuanian sounds mostly Slavic.
@@raivopelcis551 I have heard Lithuanian but I'll need to re listen to Latvian because I can't remember it.

You hate Slavic languages?
I had great fun listing and trying to understand all the Germanic languages. I'm a native German speaker and was able to more or less understand Luxembourigish, Dutch and Danish pretty well and got glimpses of Swedish, Norwegian and Finnish (also single words of Faroese but well not the topic as such). For me personally this fact is so interesting because it shows the origin of these languages really well and tells a lot about shared history in the early times. Also it's fascinating to see that most of these women fall right into the stereotypes for the beauty standards that come to mind for each of these countries.
Finnish is not even close to being a germanic language
@@Xeper-I-Set yes it's close to Hungarian and Estonian
@@lpslinneas7989 those are not germanic languages friend

What Kazakh, Azerbaijani, Armenian and Georgian are doing in this comparison? They are all in Asia (google it if you are not sure). Otherwise great video, gives an idea about different languages. For me, around half of languages here sounded Russian. But when Russian came it sounded totally different than I expected! Finnish and Estonian sounded the most different, on a edge of creepy - from all the languages. Didnt sound like anything else! Catalan and Galician still sounded Spanish, Bask - didn't. Portugese sounded Russian (until real Russian came) - I guess it was about voice articulation. Latvian sounded Nordic - wow. And Greek almost Slavic (but it wasn't). Very interesting.
All four of those countries have physical territory in Europe (except Armenia, but its culturally more tied to Europe than asia)
Прикольная языковая подборка! Как то и не задумывался, а сколько в мире вообще языков (тех, на которых говорят не менее 50. 000 человек), интересно!?
Slavic peoples: I understand all languages to some extent, but I like these two languages the most (list of certain languages). 🇷🇺Moscowitens (non Slavic, because origin Ugro-Finnic): I did not understand anything of what these all Slavs were saying, because they were deliberately speaking very-very quickly so that nothing could be understood for me. But I liked the 🇷🇸Serbian language the most. Yes, I don't understand anything Serbian language, but I like it, because our Kremlin propaganda says that we are one union people with Serbs and that Serbs should speak the same language with us. 🇷🇸Serbs: I understand all languages to some extent, but I like the 🇷🇺Moscowiten language the most, because Kremlin propaganda says that we are one union people with Moscowiten and that Serbian does not exist and that we should speak to Moscowitens in one language - Moscowiten language, because we are one union people.

As a native Ukrainian speaker, I completely understand Belarussian and Polish, and also can understand in general what is talking about in Slovakian, Croatian, Bolgarian, Macedonian, Serbian, Slovenian, Bosnian, Czech. I studied German and, of course, English, that' s why I can travel around Europe and communicate almost everywhere. Wish to study French, Italian and Spanish. Ps: Half of the year I took lessons of Crimean Tatar language. It's a pity that you forgot to add this beautiful language in the list.

Swiss German TV broadcasts are in standard German, even though German-Swiss people *always* speak their own dialect in informal situations. (There is no *single* Swiss German language, but a dialect continuum. Therefore, having a broadcast in "Swiss German" would be like having one in Bavarian or Swabian inside Germany itself.)

@@519djw6 Oh okay, with the rolled "r" and to me seems like a stronger accent, that's why I thought it was slightly different. Meanwhile I just wanted to say I regret having the bad teacher of German I had in my middle school because I could not learn anything of German. Now just by listening to this weather presenter and scripting her words, I have learned far more and manage German more in a few weeks than 5 years at school. Sad French system in languages I think. I can hear every word while 10 years of English and I still struggle with the English accent to comprehend the bizarre English pronunciation of words, but to me German seems more easy (at least comprehend every spoken word), weird, while I have lived months in the Uk and US 🤣 But now yes I understand what you mean, it's a different accent, but like there are different accents inside every countries...
