"Inimă" - from latin "anima" soul and "gură" from latin gula ( throat) similar with italian "gola". Explanation for the ones who think it's just slavic influence.

@MrQ454 Жыл бұрын

There is also in Romanian ”bucă” which signify cheek.„Țeastă” (like in It-Testo) as head

@AdamSlatopolsky Жыл бұрын

gola also exist in Spanish as throat and some derivated words as the verb "engolar", but it is not very common. Gula is one of the main sins (greed) and is also from the same root as gola

In fact, we understand Latin very well, because there are many other words derived from the Latin word in the Romanian language to denote elements from the same family. For example, in Romanian we also have CORD for heart. For the mouth, the CAVITATEA BUCALĂ is also used. The ear canal is the CANALUL AURICULAR. The nose has two NĂRI. Blood is LICHID SANGUIN... etc.

The basic meaning of "nares" pl of naris, (Acc. narem) is "nostril" and the Romanian word "nara" is inhereted directly from it, while Italian "narice" and French "narine" come from a Late Latine derivate; Except spanish, all the other languages in this video, inherited the word for nose from "nasus". "Picior" =foot; leg comes from Late Latin petiolus

@mik91_N8 9 ай бұрын

"Inimă" is also called "CORD", but it is used more as a medical term. For exemple: "Operație pe cord deschis" means Open-heart surgery. "Cord" comes from strings ("coarde" not "corzi"). This word denotes the fact that the heart is a muscle, and that its mechanisms by which blood is pumped work like a system of strings.

@h.adrian8911 6 ай бұрын

"Cord" - is a late loan (from Greek "Kardia" ..in Latin "cor"") through French "carde" and used as a medical term. It has nothing to do with the "coarda" = "string". We cannot know if it originally existed in the Romanian language or not, but if so, it was replaced by "anima" ("soul" in latin, .. "in the chest is the soul" ..) which became the current word "inima' = "heart". There are still isolated communities of romanians in the historical Maramures in Ukraine who say to the word "heart" .."suflet" (soul).

In portuguese, we preserved some of the original roots and writing when we refer to some technical adjective about that body part. For example: when is something about the eye, we use "ocular"; when it's something that concern to the ear, we say "auricular", and so goes on. And, in the law writing, we call the head text of the article, the "caput".

This particular selection of words often seems to identify Romanian and the most common "odd-man out" - but that's mostly because it typically uses other closely related Latin cognates for many words where the other Romance languages often trace their descent from the same other Latin word. More typically, WRITTEN French words often look the most different, but when you hear some of them pronounced it becomes much clearer they're descended from the same Latin word. On the other hand, French has a particularly pronounced tendency to drop final vowels (turning them into a "silent e" at best), stop pronouncing final consonents and drop certain consonants from the middle of words entirely - making many such words sound very different from those in other Romance languages even though their written form may show a closer resemblance. I suspect French is, for this reason, the hardest of the Romance languages for other Romance-speakers to learn to read and write...

Generically, ''bucca" is not the Classical word for 'mouth', it would be ōs, as "bucca" specifically means "cheek", "mouth cavity" or ''jaw'' and would only refer to the mouth colloquially, sort of like ''gueule'' in French when referring to human mouths/faces. It eventually came to mean mouth as a standard form, but that was post-Classical era.

It s not because I am lusophone and I speak all of them,… but I can clearly understand how Portuguese has developed itself in a very musical way compared to the other languages,… all the other languages have its own patterns and “reasons why” whereas Portuguese was kind of “made” from all of them to become more soft and round in order to be heard and spoken more softly. The Portuguese monarchy is an example of how they imported a lot of French manners to the language, whereas many words are similar to Spanish and Italian was a big influence in Portuguese language in the time many Italians came to Brazil. It s a big salad.
