You made a small mistake in Eastern Slavic languages about word goat. You placed masculine version козёл (koziol or kozel), but feminine коза (koza) as a Ukrainian and Belarusian one. In fact, all our languages have the same masculine-feminine pair. Russian: козёл - коза (koziol - koza), Belarusian: казёл - каза (kazioł - kaza, pronounced just as in Russian), Ukrainian: козел - коза (kozel - koza), and Ukrainian (especially Western versions) also has especially masculine version цап (tsap) - a loanword from Romania Same mistake you've made about South Slavic languages as the maculine form "jarac" and feminine "koza" are the same among the whole Serbo-Croatian language territory. Samely, word "medved/medvjed" is universal for all Serbo-Croatian, and "snositi is something like the verb "to bring" or "to bear", it may be a translators bug

@@frankgrey6797 It might be, but I really doubt this one. Slavic korova/krova/krava date back to Proto-Balto-Slavic *korva. Many modern linguists connect it to Proto-Celtic *karvos (deer) and this way the closest word in Germanic languages for it is "Horn" which goes from the same Indo-European root. On opposite, Germanic "Cow" and its relatives are supposed to have originated from Proto-Indo-European *gʷṓws. However it has some descendants in Slavic languages too: it is related to Russian говядина (goviadina - beef, originates from archaic goviada - a cattle raised specifically for meat) and Serbo-Croatian govedo (cattle of unspecified sex).

Interesting idea but there's important element of gender (or synonyms) missing here as metioned by previous commentators.

Slovak word for cat is "mačka". Or eventually "kocúr" ("kocour" in Czech) if you want to specify male cat. The word "kat" exists in Slovak too, but with a slightly different meaning -> executioner (or hangman). And small diacritic correction for the word bear - it is medveď, not medved. Small apostrophe (soft mark) behind the last letter "d" is missing, there is a small difference in pronunciation of that letter.

The usual Spanish word for dog is "perro", in Catalan it is "gos". The German word "Geiß" is more of a term for a female, more or less goat-like animal. The normal word is "Ziege", which I believe could be related to Spanish "cabra", French "chèvre" etc. The German word for "rabbit" is "Kaninchen". German "Hase" means "hare". Another French word for "hare" is "lièvre", which I assume could be related to Romanian "iepure". Russian "kotka" is the same etymon as other slavic instances of "kot" and therefore does not warrant a different color. Spanisch "pájaro" and Romanian "pasare" are surely related, going back to Latin "passer".

@juliap.5375 10 ай бұрын

Kot in Russian is "male cat". Koshka - "female cat". Also exist variations, e.g. kissa like in Finnish (undefined cat, word mainly used only by kids). Same with goat, kozel in Russian is male goat, Koza - female goat. Dog (sobaka and pes)- have equal usage, lyagushka and zhaba also have same equal usage, but actually lyagushka is frog, while zhaba is toad (in a lot languages there are no own description for frogs, they all call that animals as toads). I bet in video a lot of such mistakes :/

The word Geiß is used by speakers of the , Upper German dialect group ' , Bavarian/Austrian and Swabian/Allemannic as description of the annimal type, If a male annimal is realy meant , then correctly Gaisbock , or only Bock is used.

You guys blindly translated a bunch of stuff without realizing that Slavic languages have two versions of some animals... feminine and masculine... Like in Russian, Koshka is a female cate... just like in Polish, Kotka... but a male cate is still KOT. Same with the goat... you used a female version for all Slavic countries, like KOZA... but Kozel for Russian... it is Koza as a female goat for all Slavic countries, and KOZEL (or KOZJOL) for a male goat. By the way, Slavik Akula came from old Scandinavic Harkal... like in the Icelandic language... they are 100% related. Current Germanic Hai is also related to Harkal. The bear in Croatian is "medvjed" as in pretty much the rest of the Slavic countries. That means "knows about honey"... what you used is the actual verb "to bear" or "to carry." The word dog... yeah... in Russian and Bulgarian, "Sobaka" is a word that came from proto Turk language and usually is referred to a female dog... but both languages still have the words "pes" or "pios" (or older psina) that is referred to a male dog, which is 100% slavic. Zhaba in Russian means the toad, which is a big frog... I won't bother with the rabbit... because in all Slavic languages, there is a mix-up between the rabbit and hare... But Zajac exists in pretty much all Slavic languages and usually means hare or wild rabbit... meanwhile, a domesticated rabbit can be called krolik or trus or whatever.

In Lusatian (Slavic language in eastern Germany), I strongly doubt that "kočka" is a shark and "žaba" is a goat. I believe, that "kočka" is a cat and "žaba" is a frog, just like in other related Slavic languages. The mistakes in Slovakian and Croatian were already mentioned.

If a jänis becomes white in the winter it is a forest hare, not a rabbit. The bigger all year brown is a continental hare, imported from Germany around hundred years ago.

As a Greek, I have to say 3 things. First I was amused when I saw that EVERYONE even the Turks used the word Giraffe in some form Yet, we say Kamilopárdali. Second, I saw that the albanians call the bird "zog" and I wondered if their king's name Zog I ment "bird the first" 😂😂😂. And third, I saw that in Turkish, the dog is Köpek and the shark is Köpek baliği and this reminds me of Greek. In Greek we sometimes call the big fish "Skylópsara" which means dogfishes. Maybe it's the same in Turkish.

@dimash6696 10 ай бұрын

word 'Zürafa' comes from Arabic zurāfa like Fil (elephant) , Timsah (crocodile). Our ancestors probably never knew this animals in Mongolian steppes. 😅 For example, in Kazakh, they are Жираф (Zhiraf) , Піл (Pil) , Крокодил (krokodil) from Arabic and Russian. That's why Turkish names for seafood names are words borrowed from Greek. So, they are not Turkic.. I don’t know where köpek balığı (balık = fish) comes from. Our Turks have great sense of humor like our neighbors but I think that maybe our mariners learned it from foreigns as dogfish. Lazy males.🙂 Some animals have two names in Turkish. Turtle : Kaplumbağa - Tosbağa , Mouse : Fare - Sıçan , Deer : Geyik - Karaca - meral /maral (female deer in Mongolian but a Turkish girl name now) , Cow : İnek - Sığır , Dog : Köpek - İt ... first names are İstanbul / official Turkish . Second names are Anatolian Turkish /informal/ Turkic and so similiar to all Turkic languages.

@@foivosarvanitis776 There are some differences between two names. I just learned they have differences. 😅 Turtle: According to a Turk's answer, tosbağa has a bigger shell; kaplumbağa has a flatter shell. tosbağa is compound word, Тасбақа - Tasbaqa) Cow : Sığır (male - female cow) - İnek (female cow, old Turkic and similar to Mongolian ünigen but there is no this word in Kazakh. Only Сиыр - Siır like Sığır) Mouse : Sıçan (Turkic, Тышқан - Tışgan) is so much bigger than a Fare (Arabic). Dog : Köpek - İt (both are Turkic but İt is rude word and insult in two languages, too. We prefer Köpek) Istanbul Turkish was chosen as the modern common Turkish by Turkish language society. We speak this Turkish but elders, Yoruks and villagers use old words. We still have many popular Arabic Persian words but i love Turkic words. My family Ankaralian, my grandmother used to say pişkir (Persian) for towel we use havlu (Turkish). My father prefer tosbağa to kaplumbağa. Potatoes is patates in Turkish, kompül in my village. etc.. Sometimes when i visit my village, i use those native or Turkic words.. Turkish people living Turkey have own words with Standart Turkish.

Frog: It can be lyagushka it can be zhaba. Depends on the type of frog. That's only the those that I remembered.
