Hey Bahador really like your language videos(and also the Persian culture-especially the video about Nowruz) hope to meet you one day, if I get to Canada. By the way Enneas, is the name of the escaped trojan who founded, what will become the Roman Empire(Enneid-written by Vergilius). Thus if you read the Iliad by Homer, you will have the saying" I fear the Greeks, even when they give us gifts".
Amazing Video brother. I would love to see a combination video in which you would have Persian, Arabic,Turkish and Urdu because many words are same in all of these languages. So it'll be an interesting video i guess. Btw your channel is amazing 👍👍👍❤❤❤
I heard before that Greeks and Armenians share many similarities, two ancient cultures and civilizations, having many things in common. And when I traveled to Greece for the first time I literally proved that theory for myself and fell in love with Greece and Greek people... much love and respect to our Greek brothers and sisters...!!!!
@@brainblox5629 Thats not true. We also actually share common origins. Some Linguists say that Greek is the most similar to Armenian from Ancient times, so there is more to it than expansion into each others territories

Im Armenian and I’ve been to Greece probably around ten times during my life. I love the Greek people. I feel so connected to you guys, one of our brothers❤️❤️❤️🇦🇲 🇬🇷
@@auberginesonofdude7970 How you are not Muslim when you have two of the beloved names of grandsons of prophet (pbuh)? Are you murtad like Bahador? Pehaps you must study the Quran and I think better at least to not display you are murtad publicly in the holy month of Ramadan. May Allah swt guide you to right path.
Armenians and Greeks are similar in appearance, the Greeks and Armenians have a similar language, music, alphabet and the whole history that we lived together, for example, in Constantinople (Istanbul).🇦🇲❤️🇬🇷brothers
@@mEtalec Literally everything he said is true. Armenians and Greeks lived together in many areas of Anatolia in the Byzantine and Ottoman times. Many words are transfered to Old Armenian from ancient Greek. Thousands of Armenians have migrated to Greece the previous century. Music of both are pretty similar. Appearance is also similar, because of the mixing during the eastern Roman era
Please do Similarities between Ukrainian and Turkish. We have many loanwords from the Crimean Tatar language which is very similar to Turkish. And Similarities between Ukrainian and Belorusian language. These languages are the closest to each other.
Osmanli AhiskaTurk I don’t agree your opinions about Ukrainians. Of course we could have some relatives with them but they have their own culture, DNA and more...

@Proto Edwardian It's "first christian" because armenians call themselves christian when jesus apostles set foot in armenia not when they became christian.
Or Greek and Lithuanian! Some of my Lithuanian pals are always talking about how similar names sound in their languages, more so than English or French for example
Last summer I was in Armenia and I also noticed these similarities: Sunday -- Greek: Κυριακή (Kiriakí), Armenian: կիրակի (Kiraki) Ice Cream -- Greek: παγωτό (paghotó), Armenian: պաղպաղակ (paghpaghak). Spoon -- Greek: κουτάλι (koutáli), Armenian: գդալ (gdal). "Don’t" -- Greek: μή (mí), Armenian: մի (mi) Edit: also I forgot how we conjugate the word "to be" is similar. Greek: είμαι (íme), Armenian: եմ (y/em), Greek: είσαι (íse), Armenian: ես (y/es), etc 💛🇬🇷🇦🇲🇨🇾💛

In Southern Italy we have some Greek dialects still spoken today in some villages. That would be so cool to find a "Griko" speaker and compare it with Greek.
@Rep 101 Actually Armenian and Greek did not affect Turkish too much. They took few thousand words from Tutkish but Turkish put few hundred words from them.
Okay, here's what I was able to pick up with Turkish: όνομα (onoma): nam (probably from Persian, and it means 'reputation' rather than name) εκκλησία (ekklesia): kilise (means exactly the same, church) χουρμάς (chourmas): hurma (date, the fruit) ωκεανός (okeanos): okyanus (ocean) Κύπρος (Kypros): Kıbrıs (Cyprus) σαπούνι (sapouni): sabun (soap) It's so nice to have things in common with these languages. And it's really amazing how much Indo-European influence we have in Turkish thanks to our Persian, Greek and Armenian neighbors. Have a nice one, you guys. Love from Turkey 🇹🇷 ❤ 🇬🇷 ❤ 🇦🇲.
"nam" is a word in Albanian. It means "fame" or "reputation" (as you mentioned for Turkish), and often it has the negative meaning like "bad reputation". I think it might be from Proto-Indo-European. 🤔 I didn't know that Turkish also had that word with such similar meaning. :o
@@driheart I think you're right. The word 'nam', by definition, is quite neutral. It's just someone's reputation. But, in colloquial speech, it does have a negative connotation. For example, in Turklish, you could say "Yes, we've all heard his nam" which can be translated as "We've all heard what a jerk he is". Interesting ... :)
@@yigitaganoglu188 Yes, interesting indeed. I forgot to mention that it could be replaced by the word for "name" in Albanian which is "emër" in a sentence like "He is a singer with name." (Literally) which means "He is a known/famous singer." similar to the use of "name" in English for reputation as in words/phrases like "big name". Just checking checking the Oxford Dictionary gives the definitions of "name" which include "reputation that somebody has" and "a famous person".
According to Wiktionary, I found that Turkish "nam" is borrowed from Persian "nâm". Well, Persian is a Indo-European language so... Looking to it further, I saw that Persian "nâm", Albanian "emër", Greek "ónoma" and English "name" come from the same Proto-Indo-European root. I guess in Albanian there were formed 2 words from the same root or possibly we got "nam" through Ottoman Turkish. 😁
I love the format of listing the origins of each word, really well put together! I also really like that you wrote down the corresponding word in the guesser's language!
Bahador, what a great video! I was looking forward to this one since they're both language isolates that started from a close branch. Thanks for all of the amazing content you put out!

@@leogion7901 I'm Eastern armenian speacker and for me the Western ashkharabar(literature language) is more understandable, than some eastern dialects. Well we easly understand each others but there are several words that can be confusing.
Nice video! I am interested to see the similarities between Hungarian and a Slavic language, Russian, Slovak, Bulgarian, Polish, Serbian etc. I'm glad you found a way to do your content during the quarantine! Keep it up! :)
Nice video, but dates in native Armenian is actually Armav, although some also use Khurma. I think in early antiquity Armenian and Greek were more similar to each other than they are today. Anyway nice video, thanks for the nice work. 😊
@1:50 We say "nine" ... unbelievable how similar all these languages are. For those who don't know, the Sanskrit language is NOT a lost language - it is spoken by the people of Lithuanian and UNDERSTOOD by people speaking Baltic and Slavic languages .... on and on and on the shocking similarities go.
By the way, thanks for one more indo-european languages (i mean one of 450 dialects of Proto-Indo-European language, Greek and Armenian was pretty good) comparision! It would be nice if next was German and English, but because of english is international language it will be too easy for German guy/girl... Buuut... choice is yours, "Next time, on channel Bahador Alast"! XD
I just came across this video, and although I’m learning both languages at an elementary level, I could get a few words and had really no idea Armenian and Greek shared so many common words 😄 Barev dzez, anuns Kent e, urakh’yem tsanot’analu hamar 🙏🏻💙 Για σας, το όνομα ναι είμαι Κεντ, Χάρηκα για την γνωριμία 🙏🏻💙
Basically perfect. Only one letter mistake. It's the one in Urakh em. The E does have a Y but we don't say the Y when it comes to a particle after a word such as "Urakh em, lav em, es em, du es, es el em" and so on. Your knowledge is very impressive for an elementary level.
@@danielantony1882 I appreciate the feedback, I was watching a video with Armenian phrases and the Y letter was in the word itself so I naturally assumed it was in the word 🙏🏻 Shnorhakalutyun 💙
Some other similar words that I have noticed. GRE-ARM Metaxi - Metax (silk) Marouli - Marol (romaine lettuce) Xali (carpet/rug) Yineka - Kin/Knik (woman) Mastixa (mastic gum) - mastak (gum) Kiriaki - Kiraki (Sunday) Sabbato/Savvato - Shabat (Saturday prob. neither Greek nor Armenian) Kefi - kef (happiness, joy, fun.. celebration or a party that involves a lot of joy)
Yes, there are many other similarities, but there romaine lettuce are called "Hazar" or "Hazari tertikner", we use "Marol" in conversation. We also use the word "Kef" in conversation, in literary armenian it's called "Zvarc'anq". And Carpet is "Gorg". P.s. Sorry for my bad English I'm only 12.😕
Bahador! Keep the great content coming. As a diachronic linguist I really enjoy how native speakers gain conscience of the fluidity of language and language bounderies. By the way, as I am learning Peraian autodidactically, do you have any recommendations, the diaglossia keeps my Persian friends from being able to help me? And I am sick of listening to Ruhani and Khamenei speeches, Hafez and Rumi are mere dreams, so I do not know how to proceed. And maybe what is the most elaborate loghatnâme?
Great idea to do this! And this was a great video. Absoultely loved it. The two ladies are very beautiful and smart! It was enjoyable for me. I will also say you shouldn't care much about the resolution quality when doing Skype or Zoom videos. They're not supposed to be perfect. We're here for the content and lovely message of your videos. This was really great. Keep it up and I look forward to more 😁😃
Thank you Bahador for this video! Growing up as an Armenian in diaspora, I’ve always felt close to the Greeks. It’s great to see how much vocabulary is shared between the two cultures
Lovely video as always, I really enjoyed seeing how many similarities Greek and Armenian have, and learning about the different language pronunciations better . I never knew they were so similar. ❤❤ :)
Bahador Alast- ωκεανός (okiyanos),Ocean in Greek has also same meaning with the Amharic same word wukiyanos.maybe doing a slot on Greek and Amharic and Armenian and Amharic would be a great idea.Greetings from Ethiopia!Keep up the good work!
Since we’ve moved to online format for now, have you considered opening up the participation to other countries? I think including other English speaking countries would be really cool for this!
We also have the words kilise (church), okyanus (ocean), sabun (soap) in Turkish. I love this channel so much! It's always fun to learn about different cultures and see how they have influenced each other.
Love Greece 🇬🇷 my grandma was a survivor of Pontic genocide adopted by Armenian family . when I first visited Greece I had such a feeling that I am somehow connected to this place and all the way from airport to hotel had tears in my eyes 💕
One of the benefits of doing this using video chat is that now you can do it with many people from all over the world not necessarily people who live near you
I am Russian, but I am studying Armenian, and I understood everything the Armenian girl was saying, but I understood almost nothing of what the Greek one was saying.
There are actually a lot more interesting common words between Greek and Armenian, both words of common roots and loan words. There are even words in Armenian with Greek roots, which Armenians still pronounce with the original ancient Greek pronunciation, while Greeks now don't. Amazing similarities, actually.
Fun fact, the reason the Greek word for center might have sounded weird is that 'nt' turned into 'd' but is still written 'nt'. So it's actually pronounced "kyedro". I put in the 'y' because the 'k' sounded palatalised to me. :)
Its a mistake that also a lot of Greeks make. The word κέντρο should actually be pronounced like "kendro" because when "ντ" follows after a vowel, it is actually "nd". The sound, "ντ = d" should only be used in loanwords, where Greek needs a plosive d sound. "video" (βίντεο) for example. No Greek would ever say "adras" instead of "andras" (άντρας), or dedro instead of "dendro" (δέντρο).
Thessalos hey, thanks for the precision! I’m learning greek at the moment and get confused by this, because I understood it just like you said but often I hear these words pronounced differently. Do most Greeks make that mistake when pronouncing these words (like άνδρας , κέντρο), or most say it correctly?

@@driheart I think you're right. The word 'nam', by definition, is quite neutral. It's just someone's reputation. But, in colloquial speech, it does have a negative connotation. For example, in Turklish, you could say "Yes, we've all heard his nam" which can be translated as "We've all heard what a jerk he is". Interesting ... :)
@@yigitaganoglu188 Yes, interesting indeed. I forgot to mention that it could be replaced by the word for "name" in Albanian which is "emër" in a sentence like "He is a singer with name." (Literally) which means "He is a known/famous singer." similar to the use of "name" in English for reputation as in words/phrases like "big name". Just checking checking the Oxford Dictionary gives the definitions of "name" which include "reputation that somebody has" and "a famous person".
According to Wiktionary, I found that Turkish "nam" is borrowed from Persian "nâm". Well, Persian is a Indo-European language so...
Looking to it further, I saw that Persian "nâm", Albanian "emër", Greek "ónoma" and English "name" come from the same Proto-Indo-European root. I guess in Albanian there were formed 2 words from the same root or possibly we got "nam" through Ottoman Turkish. 😁
The Armenian and Greek alphabets are great ✨🤩

I love the format of listing the origins of each word, really well put together! I also really like that you wrote down the corresponding word in the guesser's language!
Bahador, what a great video! I was looking forward to this one since they're both language isolates that started from a close branch. Thanks for all of the amazing content you put out!
May you do video similarites between Armenian and Hindi?😊👍👍
That would be very interesting. Banir

Wow great vid! I’m Armenian and I never knew that Greek and Armenian have similarities.
They are actually the closest relatives in the Indo-European family. Maybe the lost Phrygian language was an intermediate between those two languages.

Well we easly understand each others but there are several words that can be confusing.
@@georgeevernight2814 interesting. How about intelligibility of Hamshen dialect which is spoken in the Pontian mountains?
Nice video! I am interested to see the similarities between Hungarian and a Slavic language, Russian, Slovak, Bulgarian, Polish, Serbian etc. I'm glad you found a way to do your content during the quarantine! Keep it up! :)
Nice video, but dates in native Armenian is actually Armav, although some also use Khurma.
I think in early antiquity Armenian and Greek were more similar to each other than they are today. Anyway nice video, thanks for the nice work. 😊
HELLO TO MY ARMENIAN BROTHERS !!!!!! GREETINGS FROM GREECE !!!!! ORTHODOX BROTHERS !!!!!!
@1:50 We say "nine" ... unbelievable how similar all these languages are. For those who don't know, the Sanskrit language is NOT a lost language - it is spoken by the people of Lithuanian and UNDERSTOOD by people speaking Baltic and Slavic languages .... on and on and on the shocking similarities go.
I think Russian and Greek will be interesting;)
Wow armenian and greek is so similar
By the way, thanks for one more indo-european languages (i mean one of 450 dialects of Proto-Indo-European language, Greek and Armenian was pretty good) comparision! It would be nice if next was German and English, but because of english is international language it will be too easy for German guy/girl... Buuut... choice is yours, "Next time, on channel Bahador Alast"! XD
Beautiful video. Great job and fun to watch
I just came across this video, and although I’m learning both languages at an elementary level, I could get a few words and had really no idea Armenian and Greek shared so many common words 😄

Basically perfect. Only one letter mistake. It's the one in Urakh em. The E does have a Y but we don't say the Y when it comes to a particle after a word such as "Urakh em, lav em, es em, du es, es el em" and so on. Your knowledge is very impressive for an elementary level.

Yes, there are many other similarities, but there romaine lettuce are called "Hazar" or "Hazari tertikner", we use "Marol" in conversation. We also use the word "Kef" in conversation, in literary armenian it's called "Zvarc'anq". And
Carpet is "Gorg".

Bahador! Keep the great content coming. As a diachronic linguist I really enjoy how native speakers gain conscience of the fluidity of language and language bounderies. By the way, as I am learning Peraian autodidactically, do you have any recommendations, the diaglossia keeps my Persian friends from being able to help me? And I am sick of listening to Ruhani and Khamenei speeches, Hafez and Rumi are mere dreams, so I do not know how to proceed. And maybe what is the most elaborate loghatnâme?
Thank you! Could you contact me on Instagram or Facebook. I could help you out better there :)
Thank you Bahador jan hope you re safe and your family 💪🏻
Great idea to do this! And this was a great video. Absoultely loved it. The two ladies are very beautiful and smart! It was enjoyable for me. I will also say you shouldn't care much about the resolution quality when doing Skype or Zoom videos. They're not supposed to be perfect. We're here for the content and lovely message of your videos. This was really great. Keep it up and I look forward to more 😁😃
Thank you Bahador for this video! Growing up as an Armenian in diaspora, I’ve always felt close to the Greeks. It’s great to see how much vocabulary is shared between the two cultures
Lovely video as always, I really enjoyed seeing how many similarities Greek and Armenian have, and learning about the different language pronunciations better . I never knew they were so similar. ❤❤ :)
Now your video format is the same as Norbert's from Poland from the channel Ecolinguist! XD
Yes! For the time being at least :)

There are actually a lot more interesting common words between Greek and Armenian, both words of common roots and loan words. There are even words in Armenian with Greek roots, which Armenians still pronounce with the original ancient Greek pronunciation, while Greeks now don't. Amazing similarities, actually.
Few similar words u can find between any languages. Yes, armenian and greek are related indo-european languages
Can you please make Albanian 🇦🇱 Armenian language please ? Video 🇦🇲
Wanna see it. Was so shocked when I would hear Armenian-like words in Tirane
In a Hindi / Marathi Kendra means central like Kendra Sarkar means Central (Federal) Government. Sabun is soap in Hindi
Exactly, sir!
But I don't think "sabun" is a Hindi word (sanskrit derived), it is more of a Persian descent.
Yes, also if you look closely, the numbers in hindi and greek can reveal their common origin.
as you see in Armenia and Greece also
In Portuguese soap is 'sabão'.

@@karaejder9427 ?
Fun fact, the reason the Greek word for center might have sounded weird is that 'nt' turned into 'd' but is still written 'nt'. So it's actually pronounced "kyedro". I put in the 'y' because the 'k' sounded palatalised to me. :)
"Kendra" in Hindi also means centre. In sanskrit the word "kendram" means centre of a circle.
Its a mistake that also a lot of Greeks make. The word κέντρο should actually be pronounced like "kendro" because when "ντ" follows after a vowel, it is actually "nd". The sound, "ντ = d" should only be used in loanwords, where Greek needs a plosive d sound. "video" (βίντεο) for example.
No Greek would ever say "adras" instead of "andras" (άντρας), or dedro instead of "dendro" (δέντρο).
Thessalos hey, thanks for the precision! I’m learning greek at the moment and get confused by this, because I understood it just like you said but often I hear these words pronounced differently.
Do most Greeks make that mistake when pronouncing these words (like άνδρας
, κέντρο), or most say it correctly?
