In this edition, we compare the similarities between two Slavic languages, Croatian and Russian. Russian is an East Slavic language and an official language in Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and many minor or unrecognised territories. It is an unofficial but widely spoken language in Latvia, Moldova, Ukraine and to a lesser extent, the other post-Soviet states. Croatian is a South Slavic language and the official language of Croatia. In addition, it is also among the official languages of Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as a minority language in Serbia, and neighboring countries. There are many similarities between the two languages, so can a Croatian speaker understand someone who is speaking Russian? or vice versa? - บันเทิง
Croats and Russians have a lot of words that are similar but when you hear full sentence it can get complicated.
Yes, and as a Bulgarian I can also confirm that the same applies to other Slavic languages.

DOBRA FORA
Ja te nista ne razumem hik
Tako je 😂
A funny example: the word "ponos" in Croatian means "honor, pride", but in Russian it means "diarrhea"☺️ So, sometimes similar languages may be confusing😂
Also, in Croatian/Serbian pozornica means "stage (in theater, in concert hall)" while in Russian people can easily understand it like someone is shameful, or a place of shame :D
@@wellcomeon1 "Pozornica" in Russian means "shameful woman". However, it can also be understood as "place of shame".
hmmmm..In Serbian word "PONOS" means "PRIDE" wheres "ČAST" means "HONOR" .Are you sure you didn't mess those up as they are pretty different xD
@@expecttheunexpected8070 And also there is a verb "ponosi'tj" in Russian, semi-archaic now, and it means "to scold, to disgrace someone" 🙃
Also in russian we have "ZANOSchiviy" that means arrogant. So I think roots are same "NOS" means ''carry''
Slavic languages are very similar. Croats are treated well in Russia. We are always glad to see you as a guest.
Thanks brate. 😎

Actually all Slavic speakers are able to comprehend each other is they speak slowly and repeat it 2-3 times. I do not pretend for 100% understanding, but at least 2/3 of conversation could be understood well enough.
If they talk about simple topics yes.
if you speak really slowly and try to speak the same sentence using different words and even then there are random words that have 0 alternatives in other languages. Like "cat" in russian is same as "whale" in ukranian, tbh this example is famous.
That's true, most of the time

Ancient Macedonian, thracian, phrygian Illyrian language:
Thracian: SERDE GORD, AS BRUZA DADON ZELKIA ANA DZVERI OSTA.
Modern Macedonian: SRED GRAD, JAS BRZO DADOV ZELKA NA DZVER USTA.
(Translation: At the centre of the city, I quickly gave cabbage to the beast mouth.)
Or here’s another example of the remaining Phrygian glossary (Brygians/Phrygians, another Macedonic tribe; close Thracian neighbours), and the following hypothetical sentences constructed entirely from known Phrygian words, shows again that it’s one and same with other slavic languages and modern Macedonian:
Phrygian: VONOK, SIT SI? SEST TU IN SUR TO SOK.
Modern Macedonian: VNUK, SIT SI? SEDI TUKA I SRKAJ TOJ SOK.
(Translation: Nephew, are you satiated? Sit here and sip that juice.)
I'm Croat and I can understand Russians really well, it is crazy how many same or similar words we have. Among Slavic languages Croatian and Russian are quite close, they are much closer to one another than they are to Polish or Czech or even Slovenian and Slovak. Biggest difference is pronunciation, so in some cases word can be very similar or almost the same but it is sometimes hard to get it because of the way it is pronounced
is the grammar the same though?
lol
The physical presence of the Sarmatians naturally influenced Slavic culture.Linguists and mythologists speak of strong Iranian influences and similarities in the Slavic religious vocabulary.It was during this era that Slavs borrowed from the Iranians the words bogu 'god', raji 'paradise' and svetu 'holy'.
The earliest Slavic materials have been subdivided into western and eastern groups, the 'Zhitomir' in Volynia, and the 'Pen'kovka'. The Zhitomir sites are located west of the Dnieper in the basin of the River Teterev around the town of Zhitomir in Volynia,and they extend westwards to south/eastern Poland.The Pen'kovka sites cluster in the area of the Dnieper rapids and are scattered between the Dnieper and the Middle Prut in Moldavia.From these nuclear territories the Slavs spread north,south and west.
The Zhitomir and Pen'kovka groups should be regarded as regional variants of a rather uniform culture.The economic and social structure was practically the same.The Pen'kovka sites may represent the core of the eastern Slavs, perhaps Antes.In this territory history records the Ulichi and Tivertsi tribes.From its nuclear area the Zhitomir complex spread south,west and north, allowing us to consider this as original Sclavini territory.After some groups had branched off, there remained or gathered together in this area the Poljane, Drevljane, and the Dregovichi tribes known to hsitory.
I'm from Croatia, my gf is Russian, I can understand 80% of Russian words. Chakavian dialect (especially from Kvarner region) of Croatian is even closer to Russian because it has lot of Proto-Slavic words (for example, flour=brasno in Croatian, muka in Russian and Chakavian, or verb to smoke=pusiti in Croatian, kurit in Russian and Chakavian).

I`m Russian. I use to work in UK and there was a lot of slavic people. Had zero problems understanding them. The easiest was Croatian and Slovakian. The hardest was Czech and Polish
Written Polish is _very_ similar to Russian, but is purposefully differentiated phonetically by replacing "l" with "ł" (w) and "r" with "rz" (ž/zh). That makes the Polish speech super unique.
Same thing. I understand Russian more than Ukrainian and Polish.
Croatian is the easiest Slavic language to understand among other Slavic speakers (there was a study on mutual intelligibility). Second most understandable was Slovakian.

The main difference seems to lie in the syntax. All the words presented here have cognates in the opposite language. For example "kako se zoveš" would be literally translated in Russian as "kak (ty) sebja zovjóš" but we just don't say so since it would be gramatically correct by syntactically incorrect. The same is for Croatian, since "kak tebja zovut" would be literally translated as "kako te zovu" but it would be syntactically wrong. But nevertheless they sense would be clear.
This is also the case for the last sentence "Jesi li gladan?". In Russian it would be "Ты голоден?" (Ty goloden?)
In Croatian it would be "Ti gladan?" if you translated it literally from Russian, but that doesn't work as it would be grammatically incorrect.
If you break both sentences down they literally mean this:
Jesi li gladan? - Are [question-forming particle] hungry? (are as in "are you …")
Ты голоден? - You hungry?
(Note: since he asked a girl the adjective should've been inflected for the feminine gender. Jesi li gladna? [Ты голодна?])
Here the syntactical differences become apparent. In Croatian you drop the pronoun "ti" (ты in Russian) and use the verb "to be" instead conjugated for the second person (singular) paired with the interrogative particle "li". Russian largely lost the present tense forms of to be whereas Croatian retained all of them, so to a Russian speaker those forms will sound quite foreign, which explains why she didn't understand that sentence.
In their contact with Slavic peoples the Sarmatians probably used a related name to refer to Slavs.Iranian linguistic changes indicate that the Slavic *serv/ would become *xarv/ in Sarmatian.With the addition of the suffix /at, it appears to be very similar to Hrvat, the name of the present day Croatians.This name appears north east of the Black Sea and in the lower Don basin and it is also cited as " Xoroathos' and "Xorouathos' in two Greek alphabet inscriptions at Tanais from the second and third centuries AD. They were deciphered by Pogodin in 1901.
Nice analysis you two made.
kako te zovu, could be said, if you want to know if they have nickname :) like for instance if your name is very long, let s say gabriela, instead of asking: do you have a nickname, you could say: kako te zovu? but you re right, normally for : what s your name, we use: kako se zoveš, but that does not really mean how do you call yourself. we use "se" as a prefix to some verbs, but it does come from "sebe" originally.
missthunderstormable I guess the Russian "how do they call you" goes back to community village life where people were mostly known by their nickname and then by their baptismal name. But my other guess is that there is used 3 person plural in the meaning "how are you called?"
I'm impressed how close Croatian sounds to Russian.

When I was a kid we were watching Premier Kruschev giving a speech at the United Nations in Russian. My mom's first language was Croatian, though she born in the US. She could mostly understand what he was saying before the translation was given.
So the croatian word for time can also apply to the weather... curious fact because in spanish we say "Tiempo" for both time and weather aswell
Pao234 in Italy we say "tempo" for time and weather
Tambien en el italiano!
Yes you are correct
We sometimes do the same in Greek, but with time in general and not THE time (e.g. 12:15)
Weather or in croatian vrijeme is (meterorologicly speaking) defined as: the present state of the atmosphere at some place

As in Croatian, "tempo" in Portuguese means both "weather" and "time".
Same in Spanish
Same in Italian
I think somehow similar to Kurdish word (dem) which means time.
Maybe because they used to figure time by weather (position of the sun)?
@@kxenia7852 Perhaps. In my opinion because of Italian influence: all Romance languages use "tempo" as synonym of "time" and "weather".

Because she pronounced it ZELONI its easy when you know what it is like we do when we watch the video.

@@juresibenik5281 Believe me, if you'd ask 20 Croatians what means word "зелёный" ("Zeloniy") 19 would answer correctly. You are probably from south Croatia because some northern Croatian dialects pronounce word Zeloniy infact similar to Russians.
There are also some words in Russian for something green that have "e" instead of "jo". For example, zeljOnyj is green colour, but zElen' is green grass, and "on zElen" means "he is green/too young". So a lot of words that sound a bit different may have another form that sounds very similar to its original/common Slavic form. And yes, plAvat' means "to swim" in Russian but "on plyvjOt" means he swims, "on plyl" means "he was swimming", "plyvIte brAtia" means "swim, brothers" etc. By the way, a lot of Russian adverbs are still very close to Croatian adjectives even if they have some difference with the Croatian adverbs. For example, "uzhAsnyj" means terrible in Russian, but "uzhAsen" is an adverb with the same meaning. It is really interesting.
Pozdrav iz Rusije, привет из России!
@@wellcomeon1 "Uzhasen" is still an adjective - just an assertive one. I saw some textbooks classify these assertive adjectives as verbs, but it's really the "jest" that is the verb in these scenarios - it's just contracted.
@@wellcomeon1 "zelen' is green grass" - think that's what makes Russian stand out, it contains several forms simultaneously with the context-based use-cases whereas many other Slavic languages for whatever reason tend to stick with either one or the other.

@@greggor07 just remember that historically Polish must have made an explicit attempt at sounding different from the Eastern neighbors and replaced the standard sound "l" with "ł" (which is the english "W") as well as the sound "r" with "rz" (pronounced ž), and these two are one of the most frequently used sounds, which transformed the whole speech into something seemingly unrecognizable, but only seemingly.
This was great! Individual words and some phrases said slowly I think many Slav speakers would be able to get by in each other's countries. Especially when reading, if you know the alphabets in each language and their pronunciation rules. But normal conversations would get lost because of again, pronunciation, intonations and stresses.
Interesting, would like to see challenges between the Latin languages like French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese.
Croatians use Latin while Russians use Cyrillic- Russians could probably read Croation but not the other way round
I prefer Cyrillic, it's a much more phonetic alphabet than Latin...I hate seeing Slav languages written in the Latin alphabet, especially with diphthongs, consonant clusters, etc. and I'm a native English speaker.....
Oh boy then you´d have nightmares if you ever decide to learn Polish. It is basically the slavic language with the least sense as far as ortography goes. I mean, even my name, written in czech or croatian would make shit tone more sense than in Polish... Tomasz Antochów? Why not just Tomaš Antohuv? Przedwczoraj means the day before yesterday. Could be written way more easily like Předvčoraj.
You're right, I would. I've been to Poland a few times and absolutely love the country! Knowing Russian helped me decipher the basics like menus, numbers etc. But those consonant clusters really give me a brain freeze. That's why I understand my own student's difficulty in learning how to pronounce words in English correctly since English itself is not written phonetically.
To be fair though, Polish is at least written phonologically. You do have weird clusters, but they are always pronounced the same way, unlike in English.
Im Ukrainian. Very interesting how some of Croatian words were more similar to Russian words than Ukrainian ones are.

If russians didnt speak so fast maybe i could understand them xD
Whats with Herzegovians evan tho we are the same/simmilar I don't understand a word bcs they speak like Eminem when he raps
Just wait till you meet the Germans
@@crazyd4ve875 Germans don't really speak fast, it's just that German words are complicated to understand.
I was smiling through whole video, thank you for that :D
For the next Russian/Croatian challenge use words that are not basic.😅
Actually use Kajkavijan croatian. That would be funnier.
i better understan russian then kajkavijan

Greeting to Croatia from Serbia 💛
she's beautiful
I am learning Russian right now. The differences between Russian and Croatian are actually huge despite similarities and common origin.
The grammar is completely different. The pronunciation is way different: "zijevati" and "зевать" are pronounced completely differently, you might hear the word but not understand it immediately because of different pronunciation.
A lot of the words that sound familiar (and probably have the same origin)
Just one example: она трудная женщина (she is a difficult woman) and ona je trudna žena- she is a pregnant woman.
Sometimes you might hear an entire conversation and think that you understood, but then you find out that you understood it wrongly.
And how about concepts that do not exist in Croatian? Separate words for "now" i.e. сейчас and теперь. And this is one of the easiest examples.
You have no idea how much I used to struggle with having to use different words for action. movement and transport, depending on many factors: ways of movements, means of transport, repeated action or a single action.
This is mindblowing those who are introduced with this for the first time in their adult life.
That's why we have different languages. It's normal

Maybe, but they cherry picked the words in this, if you only watched it and spoke neither, you would think that Russian and Croatian are almost the same language.
Read an entire Russian sentence in normal speed to a Croat (or vice versa) and they would often be confused.
Converse in front of Croat and they might think they understood 60-80% of it, but they would be wrong, as there are too many false friends.
@@puzzlingcentaur So II'm about the same! But I want to add. You can disagree. We have different languages, but at the same time they are similar. It is very captivating, for me it is almost like love. It's very nice! The main thing is not to forget that we have different languages. Croatian, Bulgarian, Ukrainian or Polish
My French\German language teacher in high school is from Croatia. In slow times, she would sometimes write words on the board in various languages (Croatian, Russian, German, French, Spanish, etc) and kinda explain stuff too those willing to listen. Loved that teacher, she was super awesome
C'est cool ! Je souhaite que je peux avoir une prof de langue comme elle !
Я недавно узнал, что древний Русский язык звучал как современный Хорватский. Так говорят лингвисты.
I recently learned that the ancient Russian language sounded like modern Croatian. So speak the linguists.
Interesting..when I hear some Russian words, I often think "wow this is like some word from an old Croatian book or a poem"
Linguists don't say so. Old Russian sounded like old Russian.
Только назывался тот язык не русским, а славянским и был он один для всех славян. Греческие проповедники, которые доходили с Балкан до территории сегодняшней России еще в V-м веке писали, что языки всех славян почти не отличается друг от друга.
Nie chorwacki tylko staroruski czyli ukraiński lub białoruski a ten do słowackiego i polskiego. Rosyjski jest dość daleko choć utrzymuje słowiańską łączność.
Po polsku jest język rosyjski i ruski. Na zapadie wsio rawno
In my dialect of Croatian, "plavat" would be like the russian version, Its the archaic version like "Bak" instead of "Bik"(modern Croatian for "Bull"), the point being if you take an archaic dialect of croatian and russian it would be even more similar.
Our biggest diffrence is the accent and pronanciation of words. I find it easier to understand South Ukrainian or russian from Cacusian "kavkaz" dialect as a south slav.
Kojim dijalektom govoriš i odakle si?

Omfg i just realized i can speak half of the Russian language when my whole life i thought i could only speak croatia
The same situation with Croatian 😅 Now I like Croatia 🇷🇺🇭🇷
As a brazilian-portuguese speaker, I dont know why but I always thought croatian language was less dificult than russian language. I´m glad to watch this video, because now I can start learning russian too.
=)
I enjoy the video awesome greetings from Albania 🇦🇱 🤟

I am a Croat, I understood 100% Russian girl. Russian zelono-Croatian zeleno, Russian plavat (swim) , the same is said by Czechs, Poles, Slovaks-Croatian plivat.. These basic words are the same or very similar in Croatian and Russian, even in most Slavic languages😁
I am Croatian and I'm here to see Veronika once again! :)
I'm Marko too, only I am of Serbian background. I found this funny because when ever he'd say the Russian word in Croatian I'd mentally translate it further to Serbian lol!
Спасибо за проект, Бахадор! Ты помогаешь нам.
Sloveniski VS hrvatski? Bilo bi cool :')
Star cat otkuda ti?
from are you?
откуда ты?
Alex G nemogu reci sori xD
Stan Croats helped the russian "build" the Kievan Russ
Slovenci bi pobijedili 🤣
Croatian is not a slavic language in its core at all, but was originally Iranic, Avaric (Turkic) and then Slovene (Slavic).
I love Croatians!
Somehow I knew that the word for green in Croatian would be Zelena. This was a very interesting series.
There are a few tricks to deciphering the differences, which are still based on the same roots: "gladan" in Croatian vs "golodny" (hungry) in Russian is a common vowel shift, cf. "mlada" vs "molodoy" (young)
This is so cool, I'm hoping to learn Russian in a night now, I'm Croatian btw :D

Sry but I strongly doubt this
@@amjadkhallil4738 well....your English is less than great....I have a feeling your Arabic is much better.
Facinating, Croats use "time" to describe weather like the Latin peoples.
it is not strange, as we are neighbors of Italy and have been under Venice/Italian ruling for long. There are many cultural and language similarities (e.g. religious traditions, syntax, ...).
Dude Croatia land was part of Roman Empire allmost 300 y and Croat when come from North was mixing with romanized Iliyarn and Roman. And latin was offical language in Croatia to 19 centruty. So we have infulence in our language

Mother Russia has some of the finest women. She is clearly one of them. This comes from a Romanian. :)
Eh, she's alright
@orange colors she would not be considered gorgeous in Russia. Just an ordinary but still pleasant looking woman.
@Dreamer By the Russian standards, she is not really Russian and.... well... I will be kind and say nothing about the looks.
In the middle of that you can put Polish person and Im sure every three of us would understand each other :) Beautiful! Slavic Power
I'm Filipino. Way way way across the world but this is fun and interesting! I love languages.

That's because they're both Croatian. 200 years ago Vuk Karadzic replaced the Serbian language with Croatian. If it wasn't for that, Serbs would still be speaking pigeon Bulgarian.

That was kind of her. 😊
I am an American and am about 35-40% to fluency in Romanian (although reading is better) and am learning Croatian now as I have just planned a 7 week trip starting next month. It was exciting to me to get most of the words as well as the phrases. I didn’t know drvo because I learned ‘stabla’. I’m looking forward to going back to Croatia and knowing more than “I want a slice of pizza with mushrooms.”
As a Polish speaker I did got all of those words ;) 👍

Nah.. just no
Словацкий язык в большей части не похож на русский, зато вы среди славян очень похожи на нас (только словаков не смешанных с румынами и венграми, светлыми словаками), что внешне, что названиями, фамилии вообще почти как у русских.
The Slovak language for the most part is not like Russian, but among the Slavs you are very similar to us (only Slovaks not mixed with Romanians and Hungarians, bright Slovaks), which, outwardly, with names, surnames is almost like Russian.
I speak russian and I didn't even know, putting that in my CV
Slavic smart -_-
Hey what does "MALADJEC" means? TY
Actually it's molodets. It means fine fellow
Molodoy(maladoy) udalets, mal - da udal !
It's like romance languages. You can understand the words and most of them are the same but once you're speaking fast you don't get it at all
Russian 🇷🇺VS🇧🇬 Bulgarian

Do Belarusian vs Russian
That would be so pointless for various reasons:
First of all, these two languages are per se incredibly similar, even more similar than Russian compared to Ukrainian. So, even if a speaker of Belarusian wouldn't speak any Russian - and that's where reason 2 comes into play - mutual intelligibility would nevertheless be given to a very high degree.
Yeah, and second: As I already insinuated, it's virtually impossible to find someone from Belarus who wouldn't be able to speak/ understand Russian. In fact, not only is Russian an official language in Belarus but it's also the language that is actually the by far predominant one of these two. So, at least in larger cities the quota of exclusively Russian speakers is almost 100%.
Conclusion: Absolutely no point in doing such a comparison.
Маршал Жуков да я в шутку написал, конечно много похожих слов, темболее в РБ 2 гос языка белорусский и русский.
Абсолютно разные языки
Акулина Чехова: Да не особо-то...
Ну такая именно "Игра" будет бессмысленна, ибо ты не найдешь Белоруса который не знает Русского.
Более того, за 26 лет в Беларуси, я только на прошлой неделе впервые за 26 лет услышал Беларускую речь НЕ от учителя Беларуского языка. Со мной кассирша поздаровалась и общалась по Беларускому.

I speak neither of both languages ... I recently attended a Holy Mass in Croatian language accidently, I didn't leave because I was already there and had no other opportunity for a Holy Mass on that Sunday anyway ... I thought it was a Russian Mass all the time because it sounded so Russian for me :-D only later I saw in the parishes announcements that is was Croatian :-)
