After Russia, Ukraine and Poland are the second and third largest Slavic countries, and hence have the highest number of Slavic speakers, after Russian speakers. The Polish language (język polski, polszczyzna) is a West Slavic language while Ukrainian is classified as an East Slavic language. Polish is the native language of the Poles and is spoken primarily in Poland where it has official status, along with the European Union. The Polish alphabet contains 9 additions to the letters of the basic Latin script (ą, ć, ę, ł, ń, ó, ś, ź, ż). Polish is closely related to Kashubian, Silesian, Upper Sorbian, Lower Sorbian, Czech and Slovak. Historically, Polish began to emerge as a distinct language around the 10th century which largely triggered the establishment of the Polish state. In addition to Poland, the Polish language is native to Slovakia, Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, central-western Lithuania, bordering regions of western Ukraine and western Belarus, Romania, Moldova. It is recognized as a minority language in Czech Republic, Hungary, Lithuania, Slovakia, and Ukraine. Ukrainian (українська мова) is the official state language of Ukraine originating from the Old East Slavic of the early medieval state of Kievan Rus'. The Modern Ukrainian language has been in common use since the late 17th century. In this video we explore to what extent the two Slavic languages from neighbouring countries are similar.

You should do Persian vs Polish as well. They both share similarities with essential words like ground or earth
Thank you Bahador! It's awesome!
Nice! Thanks for doing that man.
Bahador Alast please would you do czech language with another slavic language
Master Expert as a Ukrainian I must say that you are very wrong. Poles are our brothers, they are the most successful Slavic country, they are the victors of Slavic word!
The Ukrainian girl was right about the word "choice". We don't call election "wybór", but "wybory", idk why the Polish girl said it that way...
Yes wybór = вибір (wybór) i was suprised too.
Eliza H. Bahador maybe wrote "election" in translator and it translated into "wybór"
krl1831 Then she is so unassertive lol.
"Oh well, that dude wrote something in *my* language that doesn't make sense, I guess I'm wrong even though I'm a native speaker and he used Google translate..."
Eliza H. Możliwe ;)
Yes. You're right and so was Kristina. Thank you for clarifying.
I'm serbian and I understood all the words. Sometimes is pretty hard to understand becouse of pronounce but it's amazing how our words have a strong roots!
Good bless all Slavic!
Yep, Ukranian is closer though, and a lot easier to understand - mainly because Polish has those rš rč sounds, or uses š instead r. Good one. I'd guess more Ukranian (almost all) than Polish words (60% maybe?).
S mr.L Вок мој српски пријатељу! Свиђа ми се да врло дивиш се нашим језицима! Ми се лично свиђа ваш српски језик који је један од најстаријих слованских језика, што значи да је у неким случајевима добро очуван у речнику 👍🇷🇸
Croaticus Magicus Hehe, da, grafemi ą, ę, ł, ń, ó, ś, ź, ż i digrafi ch, cz, dz, dź, dż, rz, sz su specifičnost poljskog jezika; '"ć" postoji i u hrvatskom i u poljskom jeziku
(BTW, č = cz, dž = dż, đ = dź, š = sz, ž = rz/ż) ;)
Lijep pozdrav iz Poljske! :)
Yea, but we don't use them instead of r :)
Ja samo malo govorim hrvatski, ali stvarno puno razumijem vaš jezik - rekla bih da ~85% (bez pomoći rječnika, naravno) ;)
Love Poland and Ukraine from Czech Republic! ^^
P.S I'm learning Ukrainian

Ukrainians are too mixed with Asians (Pechenegs, Khazars and Tatars).
Polish people? Hello? I love your language ! Jestem rumunem i lubię polski język. Ukrainian is also very pretty, greetings 🇷🇴💕🇵🇱💕🇺🇦
Hello bro. In polish it should be: Jestem Rumunem i lubię polski. :)
You are shitty
Jupiter the planet I can't imagine Romanian who loves sounding of Polish and hates sounding of Ukrainian. I can understand he loves Poland and hates Ukraine, it's OK - but then you write as is and don't invent fantom formulas. If you hate sounding of Ukrainian you would typically hate Polish twice more if only you're not a pervert who likes all these SH, CH and nasal sounds (which so differs from Romanian sounding :)
ME_MYSELF and I So you're simply Ukraine hater. It's just exactly what I thought. Languages are irrelevant ;)
ME_MYSELF and I OMG, ce surpriză plăcută :) Bună din nou! (Urmăresc şi eu acest canal :))Mulţumim din suflet pentru cuvintele Tale atât de frumoase... Trăiască şi înflorească prietenia româno-polonă! ❤
Greetings from Czech Republic, I am informed about similarities between Polish and Ukrainian, but I am honestly surprised of how much I understood! I am on way to become an omniglot and I added Ukrainian on my list at this moment.
Pozdrawiam wszystkich w Polsce i na Ukrainie!
Pozdrowienia, bracia z Czech!
A ja pozdravujem z východu! :)

I'm a Southeast Asian and have nothing to do here lol 😂 but Slavic languages are so mystique and has a very mesmerizing pronunciation especially Ukrainian 😳

Interesting you hear it that way that is mystique
Try croatian to get most slavic roots. Btw I'm Russian.
I have a friend who is Ukrainian and she speaks Ukrainian to me and i speak polish to her xD

@@misiek_xp4886, stupid, Ukraine was never Poland!.. Yes, Ukraine was occupied by Poland like Crimea now is occupied by Russia. If Ukraine was Poland, it would be Poland now too. Old name of Ukraine was Kyiv Rus'. Look in Wikipedia. :)
Bitch Poland never occupied Ukraine. That was Polish and Lithunian union in those days on this land where you call now Ukraine. Stop talking bullshits and educated yourself ..
Thank you so much for this video. I am from Poland and I am learning Ukrainian, so I like it very much.
Dziękuję! Дякую!
Thank you for watching:)
Lovely!
Prıjemno ce čutı!
If you want to practise Ukrainian I can help you, I am native speaker. And you also can help me in Polish.
Why would a pole learn ukrainian?..
I'm learning Ukrainian because I really like this language, it's beautiful. I like Ukraine, especially Odessa. I am also a Melovin fan, so knowledge of Ukrainian would help me understand many interviews.
As Polish I would understand every word said by the Ukrainian woman, no wonder our languages are so similar 👍🇵🇱🇺🇦
Mikołaj Bojarczuk They're both slavic languages, that's why they are so similar
And because of our common history ;).
Pan Adolf You know it 👍
Pan Adolf Not common, because the Polish pans used the Ukrainian population as serfs.

i swear being polish with a little knowledge of russian (from school) makes you understand almost everything in ukrainian, but it ain't changing the fact that i want to learn ukrainian too, well good luck for me, great video!
the Similarities are borrowings from Polish during the polish rule in the west Russia. Try slovakian (with ukrainian) and will see less similarities.

Oh my Goodness! You have to do Slovak and Polish! It is such a surreal experience to listen to both! They are distinct languages yet almost completely mutually intelligible! It's almost scary. You think to yourself: Why do you sound so weird and WHY DO I UNDERSTAND ???
I think Slovak is the closest to Polish.
No diffrences 😃
That moment when I am Pole which is living in Lithuania and know Polish, Lithuanian, Russian and Ukrainian language. Oh, and English of course 😁
Katty21 How, how, how? I know 3 languages, with mine included... 😣😒
ME_MYSELF and I
I live in multicultural society and it is very helpful, because I have to know about 3 languages minimally 😊
Katty21 I'm so gealous 😬😊☺😂😂
I basicaly know Croatian Bosnian Serbian Montengrian and can understand Slovenian and some other slavic languages probably. And I know English German and I'm learning French now too
“Basically” doesn’t count.
I suppose, you don’t even know what is the actual differences between them…
I'm from Belarus, and I understood almost everything. Just amazing
They all have got similar because they are slavic languages
The same with germanic languages , and latin languages are even more similar.
Pitur yes
Yes and no. Theu all have a common heritage but Polish nd Ukrainian in particular have been in extensive contact because of governance under the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
Pitur slavic languages are the most Similar to each other
exactly
Here in Vancouver, I used to work 6 years for an Ukrainian catholic parish who is in fact Ukrainian-polish because of the mixed marriage. Pozdrowienia z Kanada.
Great video as always Bahador jan! :)
Thanks so much Amir jan :)
I'm from Poland and we say wybory for election in my part, not wybór and that's quite official I think because I have never herd or read wybór as election, it doesn't make sense to me. For me it's a choice as she said so Kristina got it right :)
I am from Ukraine and I’ve almost guessed everything. An interesting video !
Bardzo ciekawie się ogląda kiedy znasz polski, ukraiński i angielski
*польськУ / *українськУ / *англійськУ
Yes, fully agreed. I see it often would be easier to understand written language (using latin alphabet if somebody doesn't know cyrylic) than spoken one.
@@piotrhobbysta5614 yeah polish and ukranian are very similar, on other hand russian is a bit different. Some words share the root, but sound very different and others are used differently or different words are used for same meaning. Like Travel had same root with word road in ukranian and polish, but in russian there is no word like that with that root.
не дуже, хіба тільки цікаво яким чином індієць обирав слова
Очень интересно смотреть, когда знаешь польский, украинский и английский.
Love Slavic Bros from Croatia
hungarian v.s a turkic language(bashkir, volga tatar, anatolian turkish, chuvash, crimean tatar)
or
hungarian v.s another finno-ugric language(khanty/mansi, mordovian(moksha/erzya), estonian/finnish, komi, udmurt)
Finnish vs Estonian would be great! Koira - koer, silmä - silm, joulu - jõul, kolmesataakaksikymmentäyksi - kolmsada kakskümmend üks (the number 321) ...
Tobias Henrik OMFG how long can it be?
I am Polish who speaks hungarian every day so we can try Polish vs Hungarian :)
My mother's side is Polish and father Ukrainian, thus this reminds me of holidays

Ahoj, did you understand Polish? Greetings from Poland!
As a matter of fact, Ukrainian seemed generally easier for me to understand in this video. Polish gets to be harder to comprehend with that ć, ś and ź all around. 😇 I live at the Czech side of Silesia right now, and the locals are overall used to hearing Polish a lot in here, so they would definitely understand it bettter than me.
Susid is also used in south Croatia even if Susjed is official word, many things in the south are ikavian so for Lijepo we say Lipo or Bijelo is Bilo.
Квитків! IT is the Ukrainian word for TICKET. KVYTOK is a ticket and BILET is a paper with a number of your exam paper if you are a student
It is nice to see that we slavics have so many similarities:)
the Similarities are borrowings from Polish during the polish rule in the west Russia. Try slovakian (with ukrainian) and will see less similarities.
AleksandrSL oh really?Do u think I only heard ukrainian and no other slavic language? I watched version with croatian language and understood everything, I can understand Czech and slovakians pretty good too.
Of course there are some "borrowings", but still language is pretty similar.
Yeah I talk about some borrowings, the Russian dialect with the borroings.
(ukr.) потужний = (pol.) potężny = powerful, there is not such thing in other slavic languages. but there is (рус., укр.) потуга, натуга - an effort
AleksandrSL I never said there are no "borrowings ". Of course there are. Still those 2 languages are similar like other slavics languages. Btw if he compare slovakians and ukrainian languages as u suggested, I am sure I will understand at least 90%,like I understood others lavics languages.
awesome video ❤️ maybe next polish and russian? :)

Comparison between polish and belarusian would be even better.
Sara No, Polish people see Russia as the biggest peace threat and are not meant to be together.
It's not true. The politics and personal relationship are not the same thing. You shold differ them.
michał xyz Yes but sadly Russian people think the same as Putin. He is dictating them their thinking.
The most similar language to Polish is Czech and then Slovak ☺
Matisz253 I would say Slovak is much more similar to Polish than Czech, but I am not sure how one would measure it.
Both are very similar. In Poland we just always talk about Czech.
Kashubian is the closest language to the Polish. It may appear to be a mere dialect, but is in fact the last remnant of an otherwise extinct branch of West Slavic, Pomeranian, that extended as far as the Elbe River at one point. It had since grown in intense contact with Polish, obscuring its roots, much as Catalan and Frisian superficially are most similar to Spanish and Dutch but are in fact genetically the closest languages to Occitan and English, respectively.
ajoajoajoaj
Paradoxically Kashubian and even Czech and Slovak are more similar to Old Polish than contemporary Polish (i.e. "official" dialect of Warsaw TV ;)
ajoajoajoaj When I lived in Poland, which admittedly was few decades ago, Kashubian was still considered a dialect and Slovak (Slovakian?) was thought to be the most similar to Polish. At least I could understand it rather easily, unlike Czech. I would also add that spoken Kashubian was very difficult to follow.
Finnish and Estonian
I hope to do that for sure in the future! For any future suggestions, can you please contact us on Instagram so we don't miss your comments (because that happens a lot on TH-cam where comments go unnoticed). Thank you :)

To oczywiste, że ukraiński jest BARDZO podobny do polskiego, zresztą tak samo jest z białoruskim. Łączy nas wspólna kilkuwiekowa historia. Niestety ta sama historia zaprzepaściła ideę dalszej unifikacji naszych kultur, a tym samym także języków. Dziś mamy szansę odkryć się na nowo. I nie można tej możliwości zaprzepaścić, to jest w naszym interesie, byśmy się do siebie zbliżyli!
Slovjanśki movy vsi podibni ale fonetyka ukrajinśkoji i poľśkoji najblyźči pislia biloruśkoji. Žaľ polityka nas rozjednuje...
Daniel R. Najbardziej podobny do języka polskiego jest język słowacki (zachodniosłowiański jak nasz ojczysty).
Kasia B. Teoretycznie pewnie tak. Mnie jednak łatwiej zrozumieć Ukraińca bądź Białorusina.
Daniel R. Ku mojemu (ogromnemu) zaskoczeniu najbardziej zrozumiały dla mnie (bez wcześniejszej nauki, oczywiście) okazał się chorwacki! Przepiękny, polecam :)

My guess is that Marko would guess at least 90% Ukranian words. Or he should, if they'd be moderately easy.
In Ukrainian "kvytok" is a ticket! And "bilet" is a task for exam or banking paper.
kvytok is similar to kwitek with mean proof of payment or something like that
This video helps me very much to study Polish cuz I have learned/t Czech language. But I have to warn from treacherous words. In example, droga in PL means road while droga in CZ means drug. What a nice interesting difference.
rất thú vị ạ
I'm from Croatia and I could understand most of the words 😁 There were some that confused me (croatian: družiti = hang out) 😊 Polish is much harder to understand because of the sz cz rz sounds 😂
I'm watching this video drunk and I love it. Two gorgeous slavic women trying to learn each others language. I'm Polish and I think both languages sound amazing! Hope to see more! Cheers!
Ok, so I'm a native Ukrainian speaker and there're few points i would like to make:
It would be so much easier if you let Ukrainian girl see the Polish spelling - she would get all of them because the biggest difference between two languages is stresses and pronunciation so she would have no problem with "neighbor" and "travel" if she saw the spelling of those words.
It's not that fare in relation to the Polish girl because in reality (because of the historical background of Ukraine) if you speak Ukrainian there's a 99.9% chance that you speak (or at least understand) Russian. And some of the Polish words sound less similar to Ukrainian and more similar to Russian so it was easier for Ukrainian girl to guess.
Ну, ніби-то так, я згоден з Вами що польська і російська загалом м'які мови, в той час як українська тверда та має свої особлиості, через які іноді відрізняється від польської та російської. Але на цьому відосі чогось краще показала себе полька ніж українка ;). Та все одно вони обидві молодці. Привіти з Польщі.
From my perspective Ukrainians who not only speak Ukrainian but think in Ukrainian language have way less struggle understanding other Slavic languages due to plenty of similarities. Those who think in Russian (due to that long sad history of rusification) do actually struggle. Nevertheless the video was very entertaining, thanks for it.
Unfortunately there is an overwhelming moscow(so called russian) language speaking informational field in Ukraine and people are heavily influenced by it.
How about Ukrainian vs Slovak?
Thank you Mr. Bahador Alast for a very interesting video. I've been waiting for a while when you record something with the polish language. It was very cool to continue with this. It was very funny to watch me as a Pole because iknow the Ukrainian language ^^ These languages are very simmilar because they are slavic and because of our common polish-ukrainian history and we always been a neighbors whith ukrainians (earlier they called themselvs "rusyns" ^^. And almost every word in past was in our or their language :) Just some tricky moments :D.
I'm Ukrainian, I don't know Polish, but when I was in Poland I could talk with Poland people and we understood each other)
I think our languages are too similar)
I am 80% sure that if these two women were talking to each other in their native language, they'd be able to understand roughly 50-60% of what one person is saying to the other. Believe me, I'm Polish and had experiences with Ukrainian before too. The language itself isn't really hard to understand at all if the people speak slowly to you but harder to do so when spoken fast, especially in a very broken rhythm. However, in an alternative way, if a Ukrainian was to write what he/she wants to say on a small board and would show it to a Pole who already knows the Cyrillic alphabet, then the language itself is then practically mutually intelligible to any extent and from there on the two nationalities would easily get along with each other 👍🇵🇱🇺🇦
I had a Polish girlfriend and it only took a week for us to get used to understandign each other, and also in about a week we started spotting major differences between languages. It was very difficult, almost impossible, to understand a fluent Polish before learning these differences and using them to spot similar words.
Like, Polish is more prone to have a stress on a first syllable, while Ukrainian on the penultimate; also the verb endings are different. Plus the "zh psh" which Poles use a lot :D You have to spot these moments and interpret them quickly, then Polish becomes really easy to understand and to speak in.
It helps that I am fluent in Russian and Ukrainian. I guess it would be twice as hard for those who only speaks one of them.
New Model Fair point, I agree with what you said. Words can be similar, but within earshot those similar words don't always sound very obvious for someone who speaks a similar language.
New Model Я теж говорю українською мовою, але далі вчинюся мови і бачу багато спільного з польською та російською. У промові українську мову не дуже важко зрозуміти для поляка, раз я побачив розмову поляака з українцям тут на Ютюб і зрозумів менш-більше 90% цього що іноземець сказав, але чесно кажучи, особа говорила повільно, тому мені вдалося зрозуміти краще. Я повинен сказати, що ваша мова прекрасна і не можу дочекатися, коли буду в Україні на відпустці у майбутньому! Бажаю вам гарного дня, мій український друг!🇺🇦💯
Have a great day too, Polish brother! Welcome!
In Romanian
"Citanie"[çitàñe] = from sl. Čitanje/četenje
But used in for religious meanings
In polish too :D. We have this in church for example "Czytanie z Pierwszego Listu Świętego Pawła Apostoła do Koryntian" 😂😂😂 I know that romanian was in very strong influence of slavonic languages, mainly of church slavonic.
But the verb "a citi"-"to read" comes from this slavic origin btw 😅
ME_MYSELF and I True :D
Il rumeno che ama l'italiano It's nice how Romanian is so related to all of the latin languages, but you can find at the same time words with slavic or turkic origin 😉
ME_MYSELF and I Exacccctly..
Imagine that I'm so passionate that I could talk a Romanian full of Latin or Slavic words and you will understand..I mean, being Italian, you will hear no Slavic, being Slavic, no Latin words.
A confusing aspect in this video is that sometimes a word is a noun, but is then translated into its corresponding verb - e.g. the Polish noun "zmiana", which was translated into verb змінити (zminyty), rather than the noun зміна (zmina). The corresponding Polish verb is "zmienić" (perfect aspect) / "zmieniać" (imperfect aspect). Just a little observation from my comfy chair here. :)
as a russian speaker who watch ukrainian TV I understand many of this words too, I could play this game either :D
You're welcome to join us if you're ever in Toronto. Reach us on Instagram!
As a Russian speaker, I can understand most of the Ukrainian words because we hear them occasionally but we don’t use them when we speak. Polish is difficult because of the different pronunciation, but the word roots are also very similar.
Turkish vs Kazakh or Czech "false friends words " vs Russian :)
Would love to!

I love these videos! It would be interesting to see something about similarities on a deeper level, other than lexical similarities. I don't know, like guessing sentences, phrases or noticing similar patterns!

That's a great idea. I am gonna see if I can incorporate it in an upcoming video, perhaps, we'll start with word, and then do a bunch of sentences instead of just 1 or 2.

6:42 but "choice" is correct answer here! If it was "wybory" then it'd be right!

These are very good samples because it exactly shows what Eastern Slavic changed compared to more archaic languages like Polish and some of Indo-Iranian. Here we see ON/U (sONsiad / sUsid "neighbor"), verbal 1st person singular AM/U (m(a)AM / maiU "I have"), there are also 3rd person plural ONti / Uti (not shown here: for example Sanskrit likhANti / Ukr. lyzhUti лижуть "they lick"), R/Sh inflection before Y/I/E (chSHy / tRy "three" - the same feature existed in Avestan and other East Iranian languages: ataaRx / atSHo(h) "fire" - actually one theory states this should correspond to Slavic "in three (persons)": Ukr. utRiox, Polish-like uchSHox - compare to Russian ochag "fireplace", Bactrian athsho "fire"). If Ukrainian girl will remember these principles she can use it for Iranian, Baltic and Indo-Aryan languages also.
But in Russian it will be different from Ukrainian. In Russian it’s “sosied”.
In Belarusian - “susied”.
Is the Polish language archaic? You have no idea what you're talking about, Polish grammar in comparison with Russian grammar is a comparison of a primary school to a secondary school. Contemporary Polish language was created several centuries longer than the Russian language, hence a different philosophy and goals guiding the creators. The literary Polish language was created during the Renaissance, hence its complexity and decorative character. At the other extreme is Russian with its simplified grammar and society which in 99% were illiterate in the 19th century.
fromG y Polish is definitely more archaic than any East Slavic language. And simplicity of grammar is not an indicator. If you compare Polish, Russian, Lithuanian and Indo-Iranian languages you will see that Polish has many common features with them, which no more exist in Russian. I already counted such features as Polish nasal sound On, corresponding to Lithuanian and Indo-Iranian AN, which in Russian and Ukrainian passed into U, and R/SH inflection which also existed in Avestan, verbal ending AM in 1st person singular the same like in Indo-Iranian. Another such feature is verbal conjugation in Past tense, the same like in Persian (in East Slavic verb in Past tense is changing only by gender and numbers, but is not conjugated by persons). There are also many archaic words and stems - for example in Russian verbal stem (vy)konati "to perform, to do" is totally absent, and this stem is essential in Indo-Iranian. So you see, Polish is no doubt more archaic and more connected to our Satem relatives.
It seems that we are arguing about the definition of archaism and each of us focuses on other accents, emphasizing our own arguments. Archaism is a synonym of simplicity, and you use simplicity, escaping from the merits, the merit in this case is the complexity of language as a tool of expression, not evolution for evolution itself, because its catalyst was the influence of another culture.
I am from Russia, and i understand 80% of all. Thanks for video!
Im Belarussian and i can understand almost everything :)
It‘s easier to understand south Slavic as a polish speaker than russian. Ukrainian is mixed up with many western Slavic words, so it‘s not that hard.
Ukraine is the homeland of proto-Slavs en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_Slavs
so Ukrainian can be direct descendent of proto-Slavic language
The Ukrainian girl has great posture.
I´m slovak, so when she said miasto, i didn´t know if it means place or city, cuz PLACE is MIESTO and CITY is MESTO in slovak language
In Polish place is miejsce
Now between Czech And Polish

There is no such a thing as Russian-speaking Ukrainian. There are Ukrainian who speak Ukrainian and there are Russified-Ukrainian.
I don't wish. I KNOW! "Russian-speaking Ukrainian" is temporary thing. No more.
@@Vinnytsia so you basically deny the existence of Russians in Ukraine.
I love this! I'd love to see more videos about similarities between these two languages.
Well done, Bahador-jan, thank you so much!
It seems, Polish and Ukrainian words and sentences are often very-very similar because Ukrainians and Poles are brothers. Some difficulties when girls don't understand each other occur only due to Polish has very special pronunciation among Slavic languages. Also most of those words and sentences are very-very different from Russian ones in despite of some people opinion that Ukrainian is a dialect of Russian. I bet that most of Russians have no idea what these girls speak each other.
u re wrong, most of those words and sentences are very-very close to Russian
I would rather say absolutely bullshit. i'm russian native speaker and understand everything what they were saying
kinda cervona ruta? ez
Okay, I will clearify something. In Sanskrit "I have a house" will be: Mama damam asti. This sounds very close to Polish: Mam dom, but actually is the same construction as in Russian: U menia iest' dom (or U menia dom iest') : Sanskrit mama = Eng. my/mine, Russian moi / menia, damam is Accusative for "house", asti is "is" = Russian iest'. So you see: Polish mam ("I have") is actually incorrect understanding of Sanskrit construction which created a new verb. Russian is more Sanskrit-alike in this case. In Ukrainian you may say both ways: Maiu dim = V mene ie(st') dim.
Dariush090909 thank you! Couldn’t have said it better
I'm Ukrainian and my sisters boyfriend is Polish. He's like a brother to me, but I don't know how to speak any other language then English. I want to start learning one though.
Get started! Good luck!
i'm from Belarus and i understood everything 😎
I'm russian and I understood all the words. It's amazing how our words have a strong roots!
Ha, nailed it. I know both of the languages! Pretty funny to watch such vids.
Smijatysja i guess is technically a Verb, "to laugh", in Polish śmiać się (3sg śmieje się), śmiech is indeed a noun and means "laughter"
Please try Czech and / Ukrajinan, Polish, etc. I'm from CZ an I understand all. But I have been born in 1983. And I'm interested in knowledges of young people in this. Thank you
Thank you for the great suggestion. I will definitely try to organize that! Please reach us on Instagram for any future suggestions or ideas, just because many TH-cam comments go unnoticed.
Another amazing video!! 🤗🤗
Emocje jak na grzybobraniu
I am from Transcarpathian region in Ukraine . And i want to tell you that our people very well understand ukrainians , russians , polish , slovaks , czechs , and serbs becouse all this languages are slovanskimi
Watching it as a Croatian some words are so similar to me and some are just like wtf
As a Serb, could understand both languages, but Ukrainian sounds more familiar mostly because the Polish pronounciation is a bit weird. This is how we say in Serbo-Croatian: late - pozno (but "kasno" is mostly used), simple - prosto, city (place) - mesto, bird - ptica, change - izmena, sweet - sladak, blood - krv ("krov" means "roof"), cow - krava, red - crven, neighbor - sused, reading - čitanje, elections - izbori, choice - izbor, example - primer, travel - putovati ("podržati" means "to support"). Only the last two aren't that close.

ty jest polak ? czyi jest Lwow ?
Roman Roman Nie rozpoczynaj kontrowersji, chcę mieć najlepsze relacje z naszymi sąsiadami.
As a serbian speaker I easly recongize most of the words, from both leungages. But most intereseting thing is that many words is same as serbian words used 100 years ago, for exemple "Late" in serbia today we say "Kasno", but in past we use word "Pozno".
I'm russian and i understood almost everything 😂😅
Всем привет ;)
Да будет срач, диванные войска в атаку!
Same here, I understood most of the words :)
You are lying. You understand nothing. Cause your Russian has nothing to do with Slavic languages.
У тебя с головой всё нормально? Я слушаю Сербский, Болгарский, Чешский и понимаю их гораздо лучше, чем Польский и Украинский.
4:55 Não dá pra mudar o passado, mas no futuro podemos rir juntos de algo.

Бо вона з російською порівнювала. Змяна - измена. А треба було російську відкинути відразу
These comparison videos must be a pleasure for slavs. Like doing a language cross word puzzle
I understood the polish phrase since the second time she said it. 😃
