Belarusian is also easy to understand

Polish is much harder to understand then Ukrainian... But it's looks like for you guys there is no problem to understand each other ... Both languages are very beautiful!
Ukrainian, Belorussian and Rissian native speakers can understand one another just the same way as Danish, Swedish or Norwegian speakers can understand one another))
DEN Russian don't understand ukrainian. Ukrainian understand russian because we was in USSR and our politics propagandate russian language. We was a part of empire!
Жадко, If now everybody speak english, even slavic speakers between each othere, are we all now just part of some UK or US empire? Seems to me that's the case.
Is much harder FOR WHOM?

wow they teach Polish and Ukrainian in Croatia? Do Croats feel any connection to Ukraine on account of Croatians originating in Ukraine and then migrating to western Balkans?
Yes you can study all the slavic languages at our university :). Ukrainians and Croatians are related. Croatia is a very popular destination for tourists so we have many people from Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine... so we are connected yes. We also have a group of Ukrainians who live in Croatia.
Wow! Як успіхи у вивчені?
I am Canadian and speak Ukrainian and found that though my family has been here for 120 years I found Pasha's Ukrainian 100% understandable.Polish has a very different intonation pattern from Ukrainian which is very noticeable when I have heard Poles from Poland speaking Ukrainian. I grew up here in rural Western Canada where all the Poles spoke Ukrainian like other Ukrainians because they immigrated here from Austrian Galicia, swept up in a mass Ukrainian immigration.I was once in a room with Polish speakers from Poland whom I could barely understand and a Polish bilingual speaker of Polish and Ukrainian from Western Canada whom I found completely comprehensible maybe because he was just speaking Ukrainian with Polish sounds and grammatical endings ? You guys are a lot of fun. Carry on. Ivan
Thank you for sharing your story! Very interesting read :)
I have always wanted to find a Ukrainian-speaking person from Canada to ask this question: to what extent are you able to understand Russian? Have you had much exposure to it?
@@mihanich With out exposure i can tell you that they understand less then they would Polish..Russian and Ukrainian are kind of far when considering how close most of the other slav languages are to each other!

Obviously, As a Polish person it's easier to understand Ukrainian or Belarusian because they were part of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth for centuries and thus influenced each other.
There is something like dialect continuum :) , so we can understand Slovaks, Czechs and Sorbs - and they WEREN'T with us in Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth :) That Belarusian and Ukrainians speak language close to Polish means that they didn't need to have national resurrection of language like Czechs had in Prussia - they had their words - like you can hear that people understand themselves at a basic level (and if someone had a time to talk about philosophy or economics it means that probably had also more time to learn some words :) ). We also got a lot of words from Ruthenians. I would also say, that because of PLC with many not West Slavs our palatalized R (RI) --> RZ (the same like Czech), that is between R and Ż changed into Ż sound.
@@magpie_girl3741 Obviously Czech, Slovak, Sorbian, Kashubian and to some lesser extent Polabian are indeed similar to Polish because they are all West Slavic. That's why I didn't mention them ;) I brought up Belarusian and Ukrainian because they have many West Slavic loanwords (predominantly Polish because of the PLC), whereas Russian has many South Slavic (via Old Church Slavonic). It's a miracle that Czechs managed to revive their language because they were slowly germanized. Regarding the RZ/Ř. I remember that I read somewhere that we lost in Polish the original sound due to East Slavic influence but at least some dialects kept it like Mazurian dialect but unfortunately those people considered themselves German despite speaking a Polish dialect :(
@@magpie_girl3741 Czech language practically disappeared for several hundred years and then was artificially recreated by Josef Jungmann during the so-called Czech National Revival that took place at the end of the 19th century. After Battle of White Mountain (1620), most of Czech nobility was murdered and replaced by the German one. The remaining Czech elite was Germanized. Therefore, today's Czech language is practically an exclusive invention of one person, who tried to recreate and "de-Germanise" (fun fact: Jungmann was half German) it basing on a mixture of archaic Czech, Lach dialects, Polish spoken by the local lower class, from the Polish dictionary written by Samuel Linde and German (still). He copied many words from i.a. Polish and changed their meanings (to make Czech different) ... as a result of these changes e.g. only in Czech the fifth month is "květen" (from the Polish name of fourth month - "kwiecień") - anyone who knows the origin of the name of this month knows perfectly well that in Czech language it was assigned to the wrong month. So today's Czech language has little in common with the Czech language known before the Battle of White Mountain (the latter was visibly and audibly more similar to Polish). Slovak language is also a late invention and is mainly based on that new Czech. So it's obviously hard for the Czechs and Slovaks not to notice the clear differences between their - very similar - languages and the Polish language ... and vice versa.
Just polish lithuanian commonwealth? Did you know that we are the nearest to Poland and and we had one protoslavic language?
@@INecr0 As a Pole I don't know the history of the Czech nation enough, but shouldn't it be writen like that: The Czech language practically disappeared for several hundred years from the administrative space and public offices because the German language was treated as official language of the lands. Poland used Latin as an official language in administration and science until the end of XVIII (partitions), they used Latin in liturgy until middle of XX. It doesn't mean that Poles at the time didn't speak Polish. It means that the 'official language' expectations were different (like name suggest: 'for office'). Czechs where a part of HRE for hundreds of years - HRE was big, and Latin and German were prioritized. I'm not saying it's fair to smaller nations, but such were the times. That's why Czechs MANY times tried to make themself an equal partner, or 'a partner', even before they entered HRE, e.g. with the Glagolitic script. People are always the same (now they are learning English or Mandarin) - they seek opportunities that will give them an easier future. So opportunities for Czech nobility were different than for common folks. From Wikipedia about Battle of White Mountain: - "An estimated five-sixths of the Bohemian nobility went into exile soon after the Battle of White Mountain, and their properties were confiscated. - Before the war about 151,000 farmsteads existed in the Lands of the Bohemian Crown, while by the year 1648 only 50,000 remained. - At the same time the number of inhabitants decreased from three million to only 800,000. - The result of the 1620 battle brought two centuries of recatholicization of the Czech lands and the decline of the Czech-speaking aristocracy and elite as well as the Czech language (accompanied with the growing influence of German-speaking elites)." As a daughter of farmers, as a grand-daughter of farmers, as a grand-grand-daughter of farmers, as a grand-grand-grand-daughter of farmers... I'm simply disgusted. There still were a lot of common Czechs... So what that they weren't nobility? Nobility made borders of state but the people made the language. Do you think that most of Russians stopped speaking the Slavic language, when their nobility thought it's plebian? What probably happened in Czechia (I know that it wasn't named Czechia then, but Poland also had different names, and it's faster to simply say Poland or Czechia) was the lack of new specialized vocabulary and texts written in the Czech language, so there were not many 'official' sources for discussing compromises of e.g. declenstion endings after their sounds evolved... Josef Jungmann... I don't think that I read anything of his. But it's obvious that he lived in the times when rich people started to write for and about poor folks. Look at questions about Pushkin and Russian language. Why should people care about some Russian nobility guy but not "the sixth child (out of ten) of a cobbler"? If codification of Czech is a job of one man, it's good for him. Why we should even care about Pushkin, that had resources: money, time and friends that helped promote his name - he is a lesser creator compared to Jungman. Should I say that English is "an artificially created" language just because it borrowed a lot of words from other languages? Of course, not. When Czechs (or let's call them German speaking grandchildren of Czechs, who cares?) were ready to start write books in Czech they could use German words (it's called loanwords) or they could make their own loan translations (it's called calque). Both phenomens are natural and none is better than other. We also have a lot of translations in science, or a lot of borrowings in liturgy. And so what? Germans also have a lot of loan translations. Latin also had both... There is nothing like some mistically 'pure language'. I think the problem that Czechs can have is the difference between how they write and how they speak, because they needed to make Standard Czech fast and there were more different groups of SPEAKERS of living Czech than people that wanted codify it. So on every day life it would be only logical that they still use a lot of loanwords (or different endings) than loan translations -- because people don't speak in dictionaries ;) BTW. I can also guarantee that the average person in Czechia didn't speak as it was writen in the books before the 1620 ;) Because, nobility is always small % that consider only its company to be worthy and its language as proper - so they don't even know what "the average" means (esp. before mass media ;) ) Just like the average Brit doesn't speak or eat like their queen, or the average American doesn't look and live like Kardashian family ;) --- When comes to Slovak... They obviously make a highly mutually intelligible dialect continuum with Czechs. It was Czechia that had more nobilites (money to make new friends with foreigners and talk about politics, philosophy, etc. or simply to buy expensive foreign goods), more books and first made new words for fastly developing world. It was more urban Czech (the lands are more to the West) that was the language from which more rural Slovaks were (and probably still are) talking borrowings - and there were no need to change them to make sense for common people compared to words from German or Latin. I'm sure that exposure to the other language because of mass media helps them also. But... four days ago I read the data from the "Special Eurobarometer 386". It is a survey made in 2012 about the ability to USE languages OTHER than the mother tongue. I don't want the shitshtorm here but I really recommend you to ask Slovaks and Czechs how they communicate with each other... (or better, look what they wrote about it a decade ago) and compare the answers with the data showing how many of them consider that they use the NOT THEIR MOTHER language (and how it looks with other speakers of mutually intelligible languages, Scandinavians or Spanish-Portuguese group). I'm too young to know Czechoslovakia, and I still didn't digest the data, but it was really interesting. PS. You are aware that Sobieski and other Polish nobilites used Latin names for months, right? You know that name of the month called Kwiecień means simply the month of flourishing of flowers? You know that V month is the month in which the most flowers bloom in Poland? People could use it for any month, when they thought about some specific flowers. You know that places in Europe have different climates? You know that other languages use Listopad for different month than Poles? In short: what makes you think that it was Czechs and not Poles that used word for the "wrong" month? When it's simply description of natural period of year and not specific day-to-day modern time.
Amazing to listen to these guys - always knew how close Polish was with Ukrainian but so incredible to hear how actually similar!
For me as a ukrainian, polish is maybe 70-80% intelligible, but it takes some time to assimilate information. Would be cool to learn this language in the future. Greate work!

Not guaranteed but it could very well be that her dialect was a bit closer to standard Ukrainian than to Belarusian. There are many transitional dialect in rural South-Western Belarus, and the way people speak south of Brest is almost identical to standard Ukrainian, while north of Brest, it becomes closer to standard Belarusian. Unfortunately, these dialects are dying out now in Belarus as people switch to Russian

NoSmoke Jazwinski Are bosnian and serb different languages?
Quique Dillon Not really, Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian are pretty much the same language, although there is a difference in dialect. Bosnian and Croatian are spoken in "ijekavian" dialect which is much closer to other non-South Slavic languages while Serbian is spoken in "ekavian dialect" which is rather closer to Macedonian and Bulgarian than to other Slavic dialects. I guess thats why for me its much easier to understand Ukrainian or polish than to Serbians. But yeah, Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian are still one language with tiny differences in accents and dialects. The reason why they are officially separate languages is simply because of the politics.
Hello! Ukrainian here. I completely understood Polish in this video, wat an amazing language!Sounds so unique and cool! Thanks for this video, now I know that I can understand Polish because of knowing Ukrainian. c:
Thanks) interesting
I am from Slovenia and I understand something, let me say 50-60% because theme of conversation is not difficult.
I am Ukrainian(from Lviv),Polish and Slovak seem close to me, especially Polish. The Russian language is completely foreign to me (sharp). the Russian language seems uncomfortable to me in communication, I have an accent when I speak it, phonetically you need to use a lot of effort, but Polish - not. it is comfortable to speak Polish. As a child, I used an ordinary antenna to catch Polish television. My grandmother and mother spoke Polish, my grandmother also told many Polish jokes, there were many Polish books at home. I am a classical musician. The music of Polish and Czech composers - Chopin, Dvořák, Smetana - seems to me to be closer to Ukrainian music (lyricism, love for the Motherland, nostalgia, pride, singing, etc.) than Russian music - (ultra emotionality, hatred, anger, self-pity ,war). After the war I gave up Russian music forever. Ukraine is grateful to the Poles for their help!
I learned Polish as a native Ukrainian and Russian speaker. So for me Polish is understandable almost 100%. But I lack speaking practice since I don't visit Poland very often. Belarussian and Slovak for me are understandable like 90% too. Cannot say that as for Slovenian, Bulgarian, Czech thou.

Dzien dobry Norbert +Ecolinguist ! I'm from France and I'm learning Ukrainian since 6 months and deeper since 4 months. I understood the core (let's say 35%, strategic pieces) of what was saying the Ukranophone speaker , Pasha, and also even if I had again more difficulties to understand Polish, I caught things in what you were saying. So yes, Polish is rather close to Ukrainian. Probably two reasons : the Polish influence of the vocabulary in the Middle-Ages and Renaissance for Ukrainian language and the fact that Ukrainian has kept possibly more original roots of the Slavic words, as Polish (especially in comparison with Russian , which, at the opposite, has more French/German/Latino-Greek vocabulary adopted in the XVIII th century).

My language is Serbian, but I've been speaking Russian and Polish for many years, so I understood Ukrainian almost perfectly, and I love it anyway. I guess for people from ex-Yugoslavia (who speak the former Serbo-Croatian, now BCMS), Ukrainian is easier to understand than Polish.
Дуже приємна розмова.
Tak priemna
I'm a Ukrainian and Russian speaker, and I was surprised to find out that Polish has a lot of lexis common with Russian that is different in Ukrainian. so for me, the knowledge of both Russian and Ukrainian helps to comprehend Polish. obviously, as for pronunciation, conjunctions and prepositions, Polish and Ukrainian have much more in common and differ from Russian
I agree that knowing both helps tremendously. But I would say, even the pronunciation of Polish seems a bit closer to Russian than to Ukrainian for me: on one hand, there's no vowel reduction, and there's the L-to-W mutation, like in Ukrainian; on the other hand, like Russian, it's a lot "softer" than Ukrainian having all those palatalized consonants, uses "hard" G, only uses shortened infinitives, and devoices the final consonants
Łaaał niesamowite, jesteśmy jak bracia :D. Rzeczpospolita wiecznie żywa! xD Podobno 70% wspólnego słownictwa mają a z tego wideo wygląda jakby miał 90%. Generalnie razem z Białoruskim i Słowackim najbliższy nam język. Zabytki - stare budynki i wszystko zrozumiałe dla niego :D, ale taka mała ciekawostka praktycznie każde słowo się przez ukraiński przewinęło (sporo z tych ukraińskich słów też kiedyś było w polskim) w przeszłości, prawdopodobnie przez nasze bliskie współżycie np. zabytek - забуток (zabutok) - dzisiaj to archaizm i nikt tego nie używa ale można spotkać w literaturze dzisiaj się mówi "pam'iatka" (пам'ятка) - brzmi jak nasze pamiątka.On powiedział "osnownu praciu" czyli osnowną - a po naszemu podstawową (główną), możliwe się przesłyszałeś. A i jeszcze jedno,ogólnie to bardzo wielu Ukraińców miało jakiś kontakt z polskim, więc łatwo im go zrozumieć, i widać że on Ciebie rozumiał lepiej. Polecam posłuchać albo poczytać staroukraińskie teksty/pieśni :D. Ogólnie uważam że ma o wiele mniej słów-pułapek niż czeski. Ale ogólnie suuuper wam to wyszło. Następny może być białoruski.
Panie Adolfie ma Pan rację :) Wystarczy trochę cierpliwości i akrobacji językowych i ze spokojem da się dogadać :D
Ooo tak, robi Pan świetną robotę, bardzo brakuje tego typu rzeczy na youtube :). Ogólnie polecam się zapoznać ze staropolszczyzną, bo baaardzo wiele z tych słów jest na porządku dziennym używana przez innych Słowian, (oczywiście często w nieco "przekręconej formie"), również sporo słów ma "staropolskie" znaczenie :). www.eioba.pl/a/1vly/wyrazy-zapomniane

Дякую за відео, Норберте!
Wszyscy czekamy chyba na pojedynek polski-czeski! :) Język chorwacki/serbski też fajnie by było zobaczyć w podobnej sytuacji.
Polski-Czeski jest bardziej trudny al mowic powoli i mozna sie dogadac. Ja mialem okazje rozmawiac z Czechem i tylko okazyjnie uzywalismy angielski zeby wyjasnic znaczenie niektorych slow.
@@sigmuntking8529 для початку потрібно розмовляти із жителями прикордонних (де межа країн) регіонів. Там найбільше вживання споріднених слів. Чим далі від кордону, тим мова може відрізнятися.
I am from Czech republic and I understood nearly everything from both of you. But I know a little bit Polish, so maybe because of that. The Ukrainian is similar to the Polish language.
Ja ukrajineć. Rozumiju vse po poĺśky.
Ja jestem polakiem. Rozumiem wszystko po ukraińsku.
Ja tež ukrajineć ale ja z detynstva živu u Moldovi. Ja zaraz vyvčaju ukrajinśku i vona na latynyci meni biĺše spodobajeťśa
ближе чем расеянский)
А я нє 😬
Разумієм вжистко - розумію все 😀
Спасибо. Очень интересный формат.
Wow!! Loved this!! Mind blown. I understand Ukrainian so this was very interesting to listen to.
Для меня было практически все понятно, но наверное потому что я понимаю большую часть украинского языка. В польскую речь уже вслушивался.
барев дзес
I'm not a native Slavic speaker. I have an intermediate level in Russian and advanced beginner in Polish. I enjoyed watching the video and I was very happy that I understood about 95% of the Ukrainian and all of the Polish.
Эмоционально, пожалуй, один из лучших эфиров
Very cool.
I'm Russian and although Russian language is the most distant from other Slavic languages in my opinion, I understood almost all messages of this conversation. Probably because I'm from Crimea and was learning Ukrainian in school until 4th grade. Now I'm learning Czech and knowledge of Ukrainian is very helpful
Молодець! Чудова українська, так тримати!
AleksandrSL Що це за мова? Напиши англійською будь ласка або українською. А слово "тримати" походить від слів "три" і слова "мати" (не матір, а англійською have). Тобто одна рука, друга рука, і те що ти маєш на руках! Логіка! І ніякої тобі антинауковості!
Lingvo Studia Потужний молодець з хорошою англійською 😉💪
Lingvo Studia *питання : яка різниця є між " робота" та "праця" ?? Дякую 😊
Sagaïdakov Khanfouci Adel Значення категорії «праця» більш широке, ніж поняття «робота». Кінцевий результат. Робота завжди спрямована на отримання конкретного блага, тоді як праця може реалізовуватися саме через процес.
AleksandrSL согласен, русский человек легко поймёт Украинский. Ведь русский=украинец. А вот россиянин, который, в свою очередь = московит - нет. І це не дивно, тому як росіяни відносяться більше до Татарії ніж до Русі.
Wow! How closely these two languages are! I only know a little Ukrainian, and I'm understanding a lot of Polish as a result
Čau! Som z Ukrajiny a rozumiem po poľsky veľmi dobre !
I speak Russian and I was kind of following the conversation. I have done the same with an Italian guy. I was speaking Spanish, he was speaking Italian and except a few words, there was no problem in communication (common conversation, of course. Not about comolex subjects). It was possible because he didn't speak English.
I actually had to do a lot od that when I was traveling in Italy. My Spanish isn't fluent but it was enough to communicate with Italians in simple contexts :D
I speak Belarusian and for me Ukrainian was extremely similar but polish was more challenging to understand.
Great. If u have kids, young cousins, nieces ect. Please teach them Belarusian. Ukrainian/Belarusian are truly one people and one linguistic group. These are the only two surviving Ruthenian languages...
@Islander Local Rusyn is also a Ruthenian language. Basically Ruthenian divulged into Ukrainian, Belarusian and Rusynian. Some consider Rusyn language to be a dialect of Ukrainian, but I'm not a linguist and it's hard to say whether that would be accurate classification.
@Islander Local It's also confusing on many layers for us (Ukrainians) because we used to call ourselves Rusyns as recently as 19th century to some extend and everyone was called a Rusyn in Ukraine further centuries back. But I agree that it's probably it's own language, because I can't understand all of it.
@@mesofius i would agree aswell..We cant be like moskals...But i still feel like Rusyn and Ukrainian are two dialects of the same southern Ruthenian language!
Super!
Дуже цікаво. Майже все зрозумів. Дуже близьки мови.
There’s a saying if you walk slowly enough from Czech Republic to Moscow, you’d understand everyone along the way.... basically because all the dialects will basically morph into one another along the way
That's true of all dialectal continuums - but mostly in the past, entirely true in modern times. E.g. you could go from Portugal to the south of Italy, or you could go from Czechia to Poland - a 5000-1000 years ago.
:)I'm learning Ukrainian and wow I understand Polish... 😮
Wow it is amazing how you both understood each other!:) Я вивчати українську мову:) That would be fantastic to understand Polish as well.
Я вивчаю* ;) I'm polish and i know ukrainian.
Hey, ukrainian here! How's your progress with ukrainian language? Just curious)
файно!
Так, інколи дуже кумедно виходить, далі формат: Польська - Українська Забитек - Пам'ятне місце, об'єкт культурної спадщини, не маємо окремого слова Помнік - Пам'ятник, Монумент Запомніть - Забути Нєзапомняний - Незабутній (фонетично сприймається як такий, що неможливо запам'ятати, особливо аптека "Нєзапомінайка" було культурним шоком) Запам'єнтачь - Запам'ятати Сzasem okazuje sie bardzo zabawne, dalej format Polski Jezyk - Ukrainski Jezyk Pomnik - Pamjatnyk, Monument Zapomnieć - Zabuty Niezapomniany - Nezabutnij (postrzegane fonetycznie jako niemożliwe do zapamiętania, apteka "niezapominajka" to jest kulturowy szok Zabitek - Pamjatne Mistse (Niezapomniane miejsce), objekt kulturnoi spadshchyny (obiekt dziedzictwa kulturowego), nie mamy specialnego slowa Zapamiętać - Zapamjataty
I'm from Belarus, I understand both of you)
I am Russian, so fo me understanding Polish is relatively hard, while Ukranian is relatively easy. So in this conversation the Ukranian was like a translation from Polish to me. It uses some words shared with Polish which I don't know, but then it adds lots of words I do know, so I'm getting the meaning of the missing words from the context. A really cool video, thank you.
As a half polish mix race girl, I learned polish first,before English, and I am surprised about how much I can understand! I thought I would mostly understand Slovakian or Czech, but countries such as Russian, Ukraine and Slovenia are quite understandable :)
I speak Russian on a pretty good level . In This conversation i could understand Ukrainian like 80% and polish like 50-40%
@Mark Oh я украинец и понимаю 80-90% процентов что говорит поляк
How can you understand 80% if it's a fact that ~40% of vocabulary is different? Not to mention some differences in sentence structure.
@Mark Oh that's more like it. Basically reflects factual diffidence statistics
I am Russian and I understood almost 100% Ukrainian and like 40% Polish
I'm from Russia and I understand 95% of Ukrainian and 80% of Polish. It seems to be mostly dependent on your education.
Парень молодец. Достойный уровень владения украинским. Автор тоже молодец, что организовывает такие конференции. Мне понравилось
Norbert, the UA guy's level is above average, he's smart and educated, hence the conversation went so well :)
Поляк наверное лучше украинца понимал, чем чеха! Как на одном языке говорили! Супер!
I've seen about 5 Ecolinguist's videos and I started understand polish a bit :) I'm russian who lives in Ukraine
So am I
To super !
Kiedy tak wolno i dokładnie - wszystko zrozumiałem. Oczywiście podkład w postaci dobrej znajomosci rosyjskiego dużo pomaga. Mysle, że jeśli trochę czasu posłucha się ukraińskiego to obydwa języki mogą być wzajemnie zrozumiale.
Bardzo piękny.
Украинский к белорусскому все-таки намного ближе, чем польский. Для меня, по крайней мере. Легче понимается. К польскому надо сильно прислушиваться. Тогда тоже неплохо))
Потому что ты знаешь еще русский и слышал больше украинский и еще может не очень отлично знаешь белорусский??? Польский ближе всего к белорусскому по фонологической структуре, это о многом говорит.
@@eXTreemator а причем тут русский? В украинском и беларуском очень много схожей лексики, вот смотрел беларускую новость про радиоактивные грибы и сходу все понятно в общем
Как же мне повезло,что учил в школе три языка: русский,украинский и английский)))
А ведь правда похоже. Произношение согласных другое. И ещё удивил предлог на 4:27
I understand just about everything
Привет, Норберт. Я носитель русского, и мне было понятно почти всё, что вы с Пашей говорили. Иногда были непонятны детали, особенно в начале, но предмет разговора и общие тезисы на протяжении всей беседы были ясны. Можно сказать, что мне на 90% была понятна речь Паши и твоя - на 70%, наверное. Я сам учитель английского, немного учился на лингвиста, изучал латинский, старославянский и древнерусский. Совсем недавно я начал учить польский (не по научным причинам, а чтобы говорить на нём), и это помогает мне лучше понимать украинский. Хорошие видео, спасибо, особенно нравятся выпуски с межславянским языком.
Dzięki! Powodzenia w nauce polskiego! 🤓
It was great to hear the Polish and the Ukrainian languages next to each other - when I compare it is very close. I understood the Ukrainian well, but it seems to me, that the Ukrainians tend to speak fast so catching the words isn't that easy :D
It’s refreshingly pleasant to hear a Ukrainian speak English so fluently. Kudos to Pavlo for his confidence during the conversation.
I am from Russia, so written polish is slightly more understandable than spoken.
смешно то что мы, украинцы, моментом понимаем русский язык. вы же нас не понимаете, ибо наш язык гораздо ближе к польскому)
Лексикально так, але синтактично набагато ближча українська російській тому й росіяном легше здогадатися ніж полякам.
> гораздо ближе Польскому Ага, щас. Прям вообще один в один. Фонетика и Грамматика Украинского с Русским намного ближе друг другу чем Польская Украинской, а того числа слов которое Украинский делит с Польским не хватает чтобы заиметь с Поляком какой-нибудь нормальный разговор.
+TristeCarl Та нормально вистачає, але якщо співрозмовник не розуміє інших слов'янських мов крім своєї рідної, то ніщо не допоможе, хоч навіть те 70% спільної лексики з польською. Справа проста: якщо співрозмовник має талант, схильність договориться то всього вдосталь, я просто не люблю генералізувати чогось, що для кожного є індивідуальне. Щодо граматики, так вона точно найближча російській, але фонетика хмм, фонетика української дуже особлива, вона має щось з польської, має щось з російської ,але тут вона просто найбільше має суто свої питомі риси.
Понимаешь или все же с детства учишь? разные понятия. Наверняка в школе учили все украинцы
Я Молдованин, знаю только английский, русский и свой родной румынский но я вас отлично понял. Украинский мне как-то ближе, польский тоже интересен, очень нравится слово Bardzo:)
Тоже отлично понимаю молдавский и румынский я из Черновцов
Поттер на українській мові, це неймовірно гарний переклад, обожнює те, як воно перекладено, то витвір мистецтва.👌
Cudowny kanał na YT.
Dzięki :)
I know a little Ukrainian, but latin borrowings are very useful for those who, like me, speak a Romanic language.
