The people who have criticized this video are the kind of people who have contributed to Goa being in the gutter today. No seriously, congratulations because you have just exposed to the rest of the world how ignorant and small minded a lot of us Goans are!
First, you idiots will use ENGLISH in its entirety to condemn the adoption of a few words from a foreign language. How did you guys start speaking English anyway, did the British force you? No, because languages that are the língua franca of the region get adoped inadvertently - but I don't see you bitching about English, because you hypocrites benefit from it.
And the "forced conversions" you lot keep barking on about, get over yourself - that was abolished in 1812, that's 210 YEARS ago and affects your life in no way today, but you'll obviously make in sound like it happened last week. Also the inquisition wasn't even that successful or you wouldn't have a 70% Hindu majority in Goa today!! In the 1500-1800, Inquisitions were common all over the world, it was just the way of the world was back then (then again that's what the Modi Sarkar is trying to do TODAY LOLLL)
Also for those trying to fight for the sanctity and purity of the "original" language, you morons there's no such thing as an original language. All the Indic languages (especially the non-dravidian ones) are heavily influenced by Persian, Arabic and Turkik languages - as is the cuisine (Mughlai), clothes (Kurtas), music (gazals), iconic monuments (Taj Mahal), even what the freakin country is called (HinduSTAN; Stan=region in Persian). And let me burst your biggest bubble - "Indians" as we know today (especially non-dravidian) ALL trace their lineage to tribes who migrated from Central Asia, around the Aral sea 4000 years ago - this is a proven fact, regardless of what Narendrabhai Modi tells you. These are the people who evented Hinduism as well (the "original" religion that the Goans converted from).
But instead of celebrating and embracing our diverse and rich cultural heritage that created something so unique, we'd rather sit in our hole of stupidity and point fingers. And I must say Goans are especially talented at this - because there's another version of this video, but it's between Marathi and Portuguese, and the Maharashtrians are in praise of it.
Good job Goenkarano!! Honestly, all you had to do is perform a simple Google search on history, in order to not sound like a complete jackass before posting on a public forum like this.
Legend… @BorisCardozo..
Dude, you're awesome.
Portuguese toilet washer
Word stan is Sanskrit word. Stop with your Portuguese boot licking toilet washer. Portuguese did bad for Goa. Stop wimping your ass over
These people want to go back to the middle ages, because their culture can't contribute to the modern world.
They can't see that Goa is one of the most progressive, clean, prosperous states because of its history.
Omg i cant belive we use them in our conversation
Ikr? :)
I am from Mangalore and speak Konkani . There are hundereds of words in Mangalorean Konkani of Portuguese origin. I am actually studying them now and preparing a research paper on it.
vishanz pinto so nice to hear it!
Mangalorean konkani is adopted konkani from goan konkani
@@glistond manglorean konkani ks called amcigele it's not adopted konkani infact it is the purer form of konkani mostly spoken by GSBs who came to mangalore but since we moved from goa there are few Portuguese words to but both goan and manglorean konkani are intelligible to each other and are the same language . Portuguese words are very few in both dialects but yh they are still usef
@@vaishaliwellingkar564 Yes you are right Mangalorean Konkani is much more purer, but it still has loan words from Tulu. both Hindu and Christian versions of Konkani have it. although Mangalorean Christian Konkani has more. and there is a huge difference in the lilt in amchigele and Christian Konkani. my only fear is that they start diverging more and more to the extent of further dividing Konkani speakers, if we don't unite. the children of Sarasvati will vanish like the other cultures before us.
@@TheLennemoy you right first thing we can do this by not speaking marathi in our goan assembly that way more ppl will speak in our mother tongue
Portuguese words in malayalam
Mesha -table
Kasera - chair
Janala- window
Kuyyil(The word used by the old generation)-spoon
Also Kalasam for trousers. We still say "Kalasam keeri" meaning I tore my pants, when we go broke
Veranda, Almaara, pinjaanam
@@muneermammikutty3245may be it is kalsrai too. The word Used for pants in kerala
I speak konkani and literally use these words everyday
Same here... M frm malvan sindhudurga ❤
Olá meninas, um beijo de Portugal ❤️🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹❤️
Obrigada 😊
Mez is called meju in kannada..
Nice to know.
And it is "mesa" in Malayalam, which is also the same in Spanish. Portuguese has some influence on Dravidian languages and vice versa. It's really cool when you discover the similarities.
In tamil too
Mesai & jannal
In Bengali:--
Kedara=chair
Chabi=key
Girja=church
Balti=bucket
Gamla=big bowl
Janala=window
Fita=ribbon
Almari=chest
Alpin=pin
Perek=nail
Boya=buoy
Boyam=container
Khristan=christian
Nilam=auction
Thank you
good list. Do you know if "begar" as in "forced labor" comes from Portuguese "pagar"?
Ainda existem falantes de português em algumas partes da Índia, provavelmente em Goa e Pondicherry.
Da vida Amor meus irmã em Pondicherry não há. Foi uma colónia francesa. Em Goa há alguns.
Thanks I heard
kaazaar, kunyaad, Avoi also
Great video🎥.. Keep posting.. 👍
Malayalam also many words from Portuguese, Including Mesa and Janela.
Danial Jose yes
Same in tamil too
I didn’t know that’s Portuguese word … we are using at daily basis
There r many portuguese,hebrew and spanish words used in day to day speech in Malayalam as well like mesha-table, alamara-cupboard, Jenala-window, kasera-chair, pikkas-pick Axe, pera-guava, altara-alter, kapela-chapel, qurbana(Hebrew)-holy mass and many more......
I think Pagar word is taken from Devnagari.
these words were also now found in africa n the swahili languge meza is table in swahili ,missa is mass.kula is to eat our goans brought words to east africa
Em gujarati nós usamos as mesmas palavras.
Dudu mean?
Coin currency .
May be I think
Jnanal means window in TAMIL
So what are the konkani words for all of them ?
As we started the episode by saying that languages evolved form each other. As far as we know, the ancestors have used these very same words and we continue to do so. Technically speaking these are the Konkani words now. We do not have any document to show you what they were called before our ancestors started using these words in Konkani :)
Mez comes from Arabic to Persian to Hindi
Mesa also comes from Arabic
Awesome!!
What about Kazaar = Cazar (married)
Yes, also. There are many more words. These are just a few.
You could 'Cantar'
Some words are similar with malayalam
Dev bare karu
The only word we use out of these is igorz thats all.
preethi baliga that is you. There are others out there. 😀
@@TravelLearnGoa Konkani language didn't have a word for church yours and ancestors went only to temples. My ancestors ran away from goa to manglore because of that cruel natorius killer rog francis Xavier.
But the portuguese are now gone
Long ago. It was a sad thing and I wish indian Christian's from there if they want to convert back to their mother religion.. back again?
Couldnt the people escape conversion?
Also how could invaders just come and rule a country so badly? That's like war :(((((
you mean that Goa is not a colony? Yes, that is true, but the culture cannot be erased. In the same way, there are Portuguese words of Arabic origin. That can never be erased.
No results for travelnlearngoa
What results are we talking about?
After 450 years of Portuguese atrocities.... still liking...
Shut up you ignorant! Hindus killing thousands of Muslims, so who are you to point fingers!? Goa will NEVER lose its Portuguese culture, so grow up and get a life, OUTSIDE of Goa!
Maria Da Conceicao Barros Goncalves Da Silva wow so tolerant :) is this what Your religion teaches you ?
@@vajramallya5483 I have no religion, but apparently other religions teach hate and intolerance, taken from the comnents of Hindus in this page & many others towards the Portuguese! The hate towards Portuguese 500 years after, when we today have nothing to do with past mistakes shows intolerance and ignorance on Indian side. To this day Indians would not hesitate to blow up Muslims and vice versa, so talk about hypocrisy of the major kind. Please, before you guys point fingers, take a look at yourselves, and the fact remains, Goa was in much better shape than it is now when the Portuguese were there. I have been to Goa twice and my uncle lived there in 61...believe me when I say, Portugal is the 4th most peaceful country in tge world! We only become violent when confronted and mistreated, or disrespected. We were the 1st Europeans in Thailand & Japan and we never forced anybody to convert forcefully except our own Jewish people...and we learned from that HUGE mistake...so if we were aggressive to some Hindus, it is because they were aggressive to us, just like they are to Muslims...Portuguese are a nice people...you just need to gain knowledge about us, my country and my people but we DONOT tolerate stupidity, ignorance and abuse and I am tired of all the HATRED being published in these vídeos by ignorant Hindu Indians!
@UCwFz9PH_q3XW9C4hOOc3Ptg I shut up? While the dignity of my country & its people is downtroden & despised over the Goan Inquisition!? Are you nuts or just someone 'special'? That's like me hating Mongolians over Genghis Khan attrocities or even Atila the Hun! Have you forgetten India's attacks in Jammu & Kashmir? It was just in 1947.. Hummmm... pointing fingers when u cannot do any better, is slightly hypocritical in anyone's book. The GInq was no different than the Jewish one, for that matter, any other massacre past & present, only smaller! A miniscule one compared to others but YES, it was horrible. Now do we Portuguese feel bad about it? Sure we do! Can we do anything to bring back the dead...NO! Is hate speech 'justified' towards innocents that had nothing to do with such acts? To do so is not just DUMB but also very STUPID...something your hollier than thou attitude seems to echoe quite clearly.
To you, these comments including yours, may be "justified" but if we ALL, did such, this world would be in much worse shape than it already is. Do yourself a favor: learn from Vietnam's people, and their post war attitudes towards Americans. Hopefully, it will shame you to quietness during your next 'victimization' speech process. Please grow up, STOP hate & ignorance and YES Goa was much better before...way better!
@@Alfablue227 LoL, you should start by trimming down your lovely name first. Then start cribbin' about Bexit, coz UK- thats where you underpaid jobless morons crash is not gonna be available any more. And stop preachin', sweetie-pie, nobody reads all that verbose BS- especially from a non descript and useless li'l 'country' like portugal. Get a life (or a job).
Educate yourself about Goan Inquisition. A berberic law to convert Hindus Muslims and Jews to Christianity. that's how these words came to konkani vocabulary.
@ferzy09 could you please explain what " New Christians " Means??
I loved this video! I am brazilian and I though very interesting some variations among brazilian and portuguese words. for example: for the word "praça", we would say "parada de ônibus" and for "pagamento", we use "dinheiro". Congratulations!
Estás errada. Praça é lugar... parada de ônibus é paragem de autocarros...dinheiro é dinheiro e pagamento (efetuar pagamento) é pagamento!
In spanish a “praça” would be a plaza, but a bus stop would be “parada de bus” or just simply “parada”. Meanwhile “pagamento” would be “pago”
I am a konkani from karnataka. We don't use any portuguese words cause we escaped Goa when the Portuguese inquisition and forced conversions started. Instead we have loan words from kannada and tulu in our konkank.
True.... But konkani Christians use them in Karnataka....
Good for you
Inquisition......
Oh my god same but our ancestors came to Andhra instead of karnataka and we only use "pagar" for "salary"
@@indranin6300 even in hindi pagar is used for salary its nit limited to pirtugese
ola...boa noite estava assistindo os seus vídeos e tambem estava pesquisando no google como eu poderia fazer algum trabalho voluntário na india.E soube que em goia, eles pretendem ensinar língua portuguesa . Queria saber como eu posso fazer parte deste grupo que ira ensinar língua portuguesa voluntária
I’m Brazilian living in Kerala and there are many similar words like chave, varanda, calça, armário, janela... very interesting!!!
Chavi - key
Varanda-sitout of home
Armara -almira
Janala-window
Kacera-chair
Mesa-table
Kalasm-trowser
@@reactDevelopment omg we also say mesa and janel to table and window😱😱 but my parents are Tamilians from Jaffna( sri Lanka)
@@JJai-ec4hl oooh yeah nice wow, we also say the same janala or /janal (ജനൽ)for window I am from kerala, india
From Kerala💖
Thank you for making video.
Today This words are rarely used in communication.
Love from kerala Christians ✝️❤️
In Marathi also we use same words Mez and pagar for table and Salary.
For front yard of home we use word verandah/veranda which is also Portuguese word.
In Hindi too table is called mez.
in Bangla too
@manishanaik1926
I congratulate all who try to research on influence of other languages on our own.
Being a student of history, I request all of u to remember what good had happened & Don't give much importance to what unwanted things had happened.
But only to be aware of them.
In India all Christians r our brothers. We all should be aware of what & how colonial powers & imperial powers used our drawbacks & made India as their captured land.
Our Father of d nation Mahatma Gandhi taught us how we can win d love of d people without having hatredness.
We don't think that any languages or cultures of d world r less standard to ours .
To fight against neo imperialism we need the cooperation of all religious & cultural people.
In my village, I have seen that all my konkani catholic people r most kind & friendly & helpful people.
I know that there r some fanatics also but very very small numbers.
I m sure that no God of books came down to earth from heaven.Only marketing agents spread that theirs is d only God who saves us.
But any how beliefs in God & religion can make people some what contend.
I speak Romani & Simple Konkani.
Three words are related with tamil: mezai table, janal window, calsattai trouser.
Person in the left looks like Deepika padukone
Thank you :)
Then you haven't seen Deepika at all
Deepika Padukone is also Konkani only 😂😂😉
Love GOA .......respect.....thanks like the vlog
Saby Colaco thank you
I can't believe we do speak Portugal's words
Goa was a part of Portugal (colonised, then integrated into Portugal) so yes.
Even Cantar
used in Konkani as Catar (song)
SO to be very clear these are Portugese words that are in Goan Konkani only cause of the horrors of colonization and genocide. Konkani spoken outside goa has no such words and the vast majority of Konkans who especased the Portugese inquisition and mass genocide DO NOT speak Goan Konkani!
These are words used across Lusofone India and What genocide? Get educated not indoctrinated.
Lets adopt Sanskrit words so we can become more like the Sanskrit homeland of UP/Bihar.
Growing up I was curious of some of the words in my Konkani from Mangalore (Bantwal). I hope someone does some linguistic research. Even after 400 years of our exodus we still have words like Pescacathi (knife), Rulav (sooji). I was surprised the local Goan Hindus did not have these words in their langauge. The word Cash was borrowed by Portuguese (Caxa), it was for Kasu a monetary unit used in the Cochin Kingdom, it is so used in our Konkani.
I really like purtuguese language so much
spelled portuguese not purtuguese
@@Alfablue227😂
Please do a video about learn Konkani Catholic words
Omg i just cant believe we use these words in our day to day life

The Malayalam word for Table is Mesha and the word a Window is Jenalla. How interesting.
and there will be more!
Portuguese words are taken from konkani
You can add cazar, cantar to the list
My mother tongue Konkani
We use most of the words from Kannada
olá
Eu também sou goês
Estou orgulhoso orgulhoso de ser goês
Eu pensei que minha família só sabia português, mas acho que estou errado, há tantos goeses que podem falar goeses
Meza in swahilli is table!

Love for Konkani ❤

Good morning mam
Será que consigo aprender Konkani?
Original Konkani word
Table - चोपाळो
Miss - श्रीमती
Window - खिडकी
Dress - झबला
So beautiful women
Pls sorry to say, I think pagar is salary n not money
Yes!
Nice teaching about words but then I don't understand what was the need of very loud irritating background music?? Was the video to hear loud music or to hear n learn Portuguese words? 🤷🤦😒🤔
In Bengali we use the word ' Janala' for Window.
how about Kazarr ( wedding) ?
Matteo Bombonato yes. There are many words
Oi,we mallus (Kerala) using more than 10 Portuguese words day to day life . obrigado
Window , trouser and desk are same words in sri Lanka too
Wow!
@@TravelLearnGoa we call keju for cheese I think that also pronounce in same way on your country
Portuguese words are used in malayalam too, like kasera , mesa and janal
Yeah table is "mesa" in Malayalam, Portuguese, and Spanish
The word is praça in Konkani as well, prasar has the inflected ending.
pagar is used in portugues as well just a little different
The word Janel is used in Tamil also for window.. So, I doubt if it was entirely adopted from Portuguese.
Wow I never knew about it.
Good
Thank you so much
This is not that way, instead have roots from Indo-European linkage, maybe rather you can call it meeting of two branches, these words are found in Tamil literature even before the arrival of Portuguese, which further suggest that, words were talked into the Portuguese language. Similar with your video on Malayalam.
I think this video is misleading, please research well.
🇵🇹❤️🇵🇹
Wats the use we use those words but cant make a basic sentence in portuguese
That is exactly why you need to take classes from. Professionals to learn the language. We have professional classes. Let us know if you're interested :)
We use a lot of these words in Malayalam too
Check out the other video. There is one with Malayalam :)
Our ancestors fled Goa and settled in Karnataka. We don't use any of those 10 portugues words said here. We use few kannada words in day to day life to align with our Local language. I have visited portuguese in 2017 with my family and visited many places like Lisbon, cascaias and pena place and roamed all the streets of Lisbon. I didnot find any who has any knowledge of India when asked about it
My parents moved here much before I was born and hence Konkani is my mother tongue as I was born here. I use these words every day literally every time. So I can relate and hence the video was made.
We are celebrating the similarities here, as you can see :)
@@TravelLearnGoa I said we don't use those 10 words mentioned by you here in Karnataka. I am a Konkani and have a lineage chart of last 8 generations. Our kuldevata is in Madkai.
@@MBhat001 That probably could be because you must be using many words from Kannada which Goan Konkani doesn't use.. We are referring to the Konkani spoken in Goa. And these words are used very often or regularly.
We are talking about the Konkani from Goa my guy ! And many portuguese people know about it or vaguely but it's always a + to share new knowledge.
Some portuguese in France know about it as in Portugal, it just depends of the person, don' worry ;)
😊
Bonkan Bot!
That what they taught you in school? It shows :)
Could not follow you on Facebook
we have a page on Facebook and you can go Like it ! We haven't placed any restrictions.
Mae, Pae, Tia, kusin (kitchen) ASA anik Jai tey words 😀
Not kusin but kuzin kusin means separate
Damiss......?? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
kamal Kerkar kon damis
viva Goa Portugal
🇵🇹😘🇮🇳
Tamil ..words...Maesai,Jannal,
There is a video on Malayalam and Portuguese words. Check that out, you might just find these words ;)
My Tamil friends also use the word Shavi all the time... that means key 🔑 (Portuguese = Chave)
I read somewhere that there are more than 170 words of Portuguese origin in Tamil Language
And Indian cuisine also have Vindaloo (Portuguese = vinha de alhos)
🇵🇹😘🇮🇳
@@pedroribeiro8868 Yes, the same shavi is used in Malayalam as well.
Yes we have Vindaloo in Goa and I love it!
É uma pena a lingua portuguesa estar quase a desaparecer na India ... Especialmente em Goa.
De vez em quando assisto a videos vossos e agradeço por tudo o que têm feito pela língua e cultura indo-portuguesa ... Obrigado do Fundo do coração.
Talvez seja um pensamento demasiado romântico mas no fundo gosto de pensar que na India e especialmente em Goa ainda temos família.
I hate Portugese influence in india.
Too bad, can't change the history now!
True due to their policy of forced conversion and vandalism of temples but we should appreciate the fact that it's due to Portuguese we have Beautiful heritage sites, Portuguese villas, culture, lifestyle which attracts people Worldwide.
I hate Sardar Patel they all are greedy for Power ...n not for Nation.....state like Gujarat want to show that they are powerful...i hate Hippocratic.....We are Goan Respect
Travel & Learn True you can't change history now, but at least people like you can stop pushing your co-opted and hypocritical (especially given that the Portuguese tried to suppress Konkani for hundreds of years!) bastardized version of Konkani as being Konkani!
Come up with some other name for that language preferably one that exposes the history of the forced conversions, torture, oppression and genocide of Hindus and other non-Catholics during the Goan Inquisition.......
@@hermicruz9937 No I don't praise the English/British influence but at least the British didn't torture & burn people at the stake for practicing Hinduism, destroy hundreds of ancient Hindu temples and suppress Konkani for centuries and then turn around & try to co-opt/bastardized the language for their own agenda of pushing their religion!
Viva Portugal!
Nik , u know nothing about Kokani
go to Kokani institute and Academy
in Manglore and see records
There are Portuguese words all over SE Asian and Far East too, like Japanese. You all should be proud instead of silly comments like:" OMG I can't believe we use them!" as if we Portuguese left you with leprosy! We didn't as there is no such thing in Portugal. The Portuguese language is the 6th most spoken in the world, so pls...respect your diversity and your mixed culture!
Yes. Let's embrace diversity by mass immigration of Muslims into Spain and Portugal. After all, they ruled you for centuries and has influences on your culture, right?
@@satanshameer690 Please get over your fanaticism and racist views! Portugal and Portuguese are a mix of ALL kinds of different people! Jeeeez...
Oh deleted the comment
@@satanshameer690 There was not Portugal when muslims were ruling Iberian Peninsula...in the same way, there was no India as a country when Portugal arrived Calecut
Portugal definitely isnt a mix of all kinds
That a lie, some words come from Sanskrit and Portuguese is a branch of Sanskrit language that’s why the sound similar and not because it was borrowed from Portuguese.
@ferzy09 Ayurveda is an ancient Indian health care which has been practiced in India since 5000 years ago, it talks about Tomatoes, Potatoes are Rajasic meaning high acidity and eating it in summer doubles the irritation in stomach so early Indians were eating Tomato and Potatoes. Also King Chalukya text 1130 AD Manasollasa contains cuisines made of Tomatoes and Potatoes so clearly they are used in India before Portuguese.
Portugese came from Latin not Sanskrit. And sanskrit came from proto indo European language which is the mother of all Indo European language
