Sretno s učenjem hrvatskog! Vjerujem da vam neće biti preteško budući da vam je poljski materinji jezik. :)

Ivan Podraza Najljepša hvala na odgovoru :) I hrvatski i poljski su slavenski jezici pa imaju brojne sličnosti, no nije ih baš lako naučiti, zar ne? Što se mene tiče, najviše poteškoća stvaraju mi Vaše deklinacije - rekla bih pola u šali, a pola ozbiljno da ja uvijek improviziram kada promijenim imenice po padežima u hrvatskom ;)

Rekao bih da to dolazi sa vremenom i iskustvom. Srpskohrvatska deklinacija može se u velikoj meri savladati redovnim čitanjem i mislim da je prilično pitka iz perspektive korisnika drugog slovenskog jezika.

Dobro vam ide ta improvizacija jer ste ovdje sve ispravno napisali. :)

Ivan Podraza Hvala još jednom :) I Tvoj/Vaš poljski je vrlo dobar, svaka Ti/Vam čast! Neka kaže tko god što hoće, ali Hrvati i Poljaci uvijek će uspjeti pronaći zajednički jezik :D

That' so interesting! Thank you for explaining your mental process of decoding the meanings of Polish words. It adds a lot to the discussion.🤓

In Russian we have very archaic phrase "полное вёдро" (polnoje vjodro) which means warm dry summer weather with clean sky... And as I heard in bosansko-hrvatsko-srpski language you have the similar word vedro and name Vedran with very similar semantics. We also have words "непогода" (nepogoda) for any bad weather and "погода" (pogoda) for weather itself (it might be "плохая погода" (bad weather) or "хорошая погода" (good weather)).

In Polish: "wiosna" (Czech: "jaro" , Croatian: "proljeće", English: "spring") also comes from Slavic mythology, in this case from Vesna (goddess of spring :)

Vladan C South Slavic word: "Vesnici" is understandable, because in literal Slavic translation: who "zwiastuje/obwieszcza" or "ogłasza wieści" in Polish, this "najavljuje" or "oglašava vijesti" in Croatian, or announce news in English (more or less). And therefore South Slavic: "Vesnici" also not comes from word: "Vesnice" (as "village" in Czech :)

@@Spinnradler problematic.

As a Macedonian I can perfectly understand Serbian, and 90 percent of Croatian and Bulgarian. As well as 70-80 percent of Slovenian. It's funny how there are "7 south Slavic languages"(Bosnian, Croatian, Macedonian, Montenegro, Slovenian, Bulgarian and Serbian) where in reality we speak dialects of the same language. Just look at Italy before unification, Sicilians could not understand Venetians at all.

@@nikolavideomaker The only language that's the same as shtokavian (one of the three Croatian languages, one on which the standard was based on which is the same as Bosnian, Serbian and Montenegrin. The other languages are Slovene, Kajkavian Croatian and Chakavian Croatian which are all very distinct and I can assure you if I spoke my kajkavian Croatian you wouldn't understand a thing. A couple of Bulgarians asked me to speak it and unless I tailored the words given my knowledge of official Croatian, they understood only a couple of words and by context and it makes sense since the origin of Croatian kajkavian and chakavian is White Croatia, around southern Poland and has diverged from the ancestor of Bulgarian a while back, whereas the differences in development through the Magyar cutout and influences of Church Slavonic created some in-tandem similarities, they're not as great as you think. The guy in the video is a native shtokavian speaker with a Slavonian Osijek accent and he definitely wouldn't understand more than 50% of a native kajkavian Croatian speaker unless words were tailored as the official Croatian language is based on shtokavian.

Разница в названии месяцев не имеет отношения к климату. Например, "листопад" в украинском - это ноябрь, а в хорватском listopad - это октябрь. В Хорватии теплее, чем на Украине или в Польше (listopad), следовательно листья должны падать позже, но, согласно хорватскому, листья падают в октябре, согласно украинскому, листья падают в ноябре.

В старорусском языке октябрь тоже был листопад

Yes. But it also depends on the person.

There is asymmetrical communication where one person can understand the second, but not the other way around. For example a Dane can understand a Swede, but it is more difficult for a Swede to understand a Dane.

@@michaelfisher9267 im Swedish and to me, danish is very hard to understand if it is not written

And kajkavian Zagorje and Zagreb dazd or dezd...

​@@croatianwarmaster7872 Maybe it's lack of exposure and asymetric intelligibility. The truth is that there are varieties of Slovak from Central Slovakia that are closer to South Slavic languages and they use some of the elements of their grammar. E.g. the past is formed using -w instead of -l. Compare: Czech: Já jsem byl (the j- sound is usually mute) Slovak: Ja som bol (in my dialect Ja son bow) But the overall differences make it difficult to understand. You see, Slovak has the advantage that it is exactly in the middle in the Slavic speaking area so it sounds easier to understand to Poles, Ukraninians and possibly Southern Slavs too.

@Kamil Gregůrek I agree with you. Slovak is sort of a Slavic "lingua franca" :) I'm a native speaker of Polish and I'd say that Slovak is the easiest Slavic language to understand for us Poles. Srdečné pozdravy z Poľska!

@@KasiaB I gotta say. For me a Ukrainian its substantially easier to under SLovak then Polish. Same pronounciation and a lot of eastern Slavic elements strangely.

@AlexWhats wrong with having Eastern Slavic elements, specifically UKRAINIAN elements that SLovakian has. In fact the Rusyns language of the Carpathian is an in-between Slovak and Ukrainian. Ukrainian does have western Slavic elements, of course. But Slovak also has Ukrainian, east Slavic elements, a lot more then Polish has. Lets for example even take the axis..East, West, South North. In Slovak that is: Východ, západ, juh, sever. As a Ukrainian, I can understand Slovak better then Polish...There is even an Eastern dialect of Slovak, that is nearly identical with Carpatho-Rusyn..LOL, In fact Slovak is the most Eastern Slavic like, non-Eastern Slavic language.....You clearly don't have the slightest clue about East and West Slavic languages....

Alek Shukhevych Well me as a Slovak can say that when I listen to Russian native speakers I am able to understand words but not sentences, however I can still do understand the context of sentence. By that said I would refer us to Western Slavic language with huge affect of Eastern languages. There loads of words identical.

Nie lubię przeklinać, ale aż samo mi na język przychodzi: Co Ty K**wa Opowiadasz? Chrześcijaństwo( i katolicyzm oczywiście) to totalne "przetworzenie", jakieś namieszanie i zmiana nazw i bogów słowiańskich, tak że nie wiadomo o co chodzi, po co to komu, na co i do czego?! Przecież to jest jakaś abstrakcja dla nas, czcić coś czego nie widzimy, nie słyszymy, bo zindoktrynowany ksiądz nam opowiedział. Przecież to Betlejem, to Boże Narodzenie( stare Słońce umiera, a nowe po trzech(!) dniach rodzi się! A kolęda to ludzie siedzący wspólnie w KOLE, z róznymi zwyczajami. Właśnie w czasie Przesilenia Zimowego. To ja już wolę wierzy w coś co widzę, albo słyszę. Wtedy wiem, że to JEST, nawet nie muszę wierzyć. Bo prawdziwa cnota to wiedza, a nie wiara --> patrz "Wedy"(hinduskie czy jednak słowiańskie?) Ale jest indoktrynacja, już od najmłodszego. Co w tym jest dla mnie naśmieśniejsze i zarazem najsmutniejsze, to jest to, że sami nawzajem się jakby oszukujemy, sami nie wiemy tak do końca w co wierzymy, potulnie robimy to co inni, bo boimy się odrzucenia. Tylko że to jest bardzo bezmyślna droga. Religia to chyba tak samo ogłupiająca, odciągająca od rzeczywistości i smutna rzecz jak: polityka, media, edukacja, medycyna( która nie pomaga ludziom, bo chorych przybywa), też ekonomia itp. Wydaje mi się, że w opozycji do tego, najbardziej 'stoji' sztuka, filozofia, muzyka, poezja, czasem film czy proza. Oczywiście tylko, jeśli nie miesza się ich z poprzednimi. Opierają się na czynności, którą uwielbiają małe dzieci- obserwacji, byciu, ech... sobą? No i tworzeniu, kreatywności itp. Takie jest moje zdanie. PS.

Thank you for your contribution in the discussion. By making these videos I'm testing the common beliefs about mutual intelligibility among Slavic nations. I'm discovering a lot of things about it. Actually I made a video with Slovak too! I was much easier to understand :)

@@Ecolinguist Yes, in fact, Slovak is the most similar Slavic language to Polish so I wouldn't be surprised you found it much easier to understand. Like always, keep up the good, you're doing a very good experiment with mutual intelligibility 👍

@@mikoajbojarczuk9395 Dzięki! :D

@Mikołaj Bojarczuk Yes, unfortunately, it is commonly believed that all Slavic languages are fully mutually intelligible, which implies that they are close enough that all Slavs can fully communicate with each other easily. This is simply not the case, but in fact there is always some intelligibility. I agree with you, Slovak is by far the easiest Slavic language to understand for us Poles, but intelligibility is a little subjective and depends on the person; some will say that they understand Ukrainian better than Slovak or Croatian/Serbian better than Czech. To be honest, I'm not into Slavic languages but I definitely do have a soft spot for Croatian/Serbian; for me it is very song-like and poetic and has some of the musicality one might associate with Italian or Portuguese while still maintaining its obvious Slavic roots :)

@@KasiaB I'm glad you agree with me 😁 I am actually able to speak Croatian too but to a lesser extent than English and Polish. You said that the reason you started learning Croatian was because it is very "song-like" and "poetic", whereas, I started to learn it after realising the significant amount of similarities it has with Russian in its vocabulary (one of my favourite Slavic languages in terms of sound aside from Croatian). Knowing that you can speak English (obviously), Croatian and Polish, I actually have a question - are you a polyglot? I am personally able to speak roughly 8-9 languages in total, all because I absolutely love them and know they would definitely come of use in the future if I decide to travel around the world one day! It is a very good skill to have and helps you a lot in life instead of having to rely on English all the time when trying to communicate with the natives abroad. In particular, my favourite Slavic language out of all of them is probably Slovak because, like you said, it's the easiest one to understand for us Poles which therefore means it has the most similarities with Polish, making it quite compelling for us to learn and seeing how much we really have in common ☺️

I'm not sure if I got you right. Are you starting to learn Croatian or Polish? :)

Буря, злая погода))

Yes, buža sounded a bit like bura to me, but due to the absence of R it was too tricky.

Yes, the absence of sound /r/ is only in spoken form; actualy they write in Polish this word as: burza , where is visible the root of an older linguistic condition. It is because in Polish, equaly as in Czech language, there was a voice change: in some position sound r becomes in Polish and Czech more like sound /ž/. r< ž. But, this sound /ž/ is not completly the same as sound /ž/ in word "žaba" (it is the same word "žaba" in Polish and in Croatian/southslavic).

Nepogoda, Nevreme.....

Да, классное выражение, хоть в русском употребляй!

'Kiszka' in Polish means roughly the same, although colloquially. The scientific term for an intestine would be 'jelito'. Kiszka may also mean a blood sausage (also known as kaszanka) or a potato sausage. There is also 'kisz', which is Polish transliteration of French 'quiche', which in turn is transliteration of German 'kuche' and refers to quiches lorraines and its derivatives.

There is also the root "kish" in Russian language, however rarely used. Here are some forms: - kishet' -- Move randomly in different directions - kishenie -- To be crowded with a multitude of living beings - kishm'a kishet' -- about the mass, a variety of randomly moving animals, insects, fish or people)

@@SzalonyKucharz в русском языке есть подобное слово (кишит), но смысл другой, можно провести аналогию и понять почему для определения дождя, был выбран термин (kisza) по русски "кишит", это когда чего то много, много каких либо деталей, животных или предметов в одном месте способных передвигаться, кишить могут насекомые или рыба и.т.д

That's not where the "intestinal" false friends end. In Croatian "ponos" means pride, whereas in Russian... well, look up google :)

This is the case for me to but opposite with Polish language - I can understand a lot of it written much easier than when spoken.

Ciekawe jaki ma związek vrlo i very 🤔🤔🤔

I find the word ''bardzo'' super interesting because ''brzo'' is actually ''fast, quick, speedy'' in Croatian (from Proto-Slavic *bъrzo (“quickly, speedily”). By the way, the best part of this video to me was at ''muha leti'' (a fly is flying). :D

Tak, to jest bardzo interesujące że bardzo tylko po polsku znaczy very, a w wielu innych językach słowiańskich brzo, borzo etc. znaczy quickly, speedily.

Moment :D Barzy, -ego prędki, szybki; popędliwy, gwałtowny; na barzego wsadzić - rozzuchwalić; złożyć z barzego - upokorzyć. Było! :D

Prawdopodobnie (probably) Polish word: "bardzo" pochodzi od Old Polish: "bardo" / wzgórze ("brdo" in Croatian or "hill" in English). So in Polish something may be very easy or high easy :)
