[@elimalinsky7069]

That is because most European languages belong to the Indo-European language family. Milk and Moloko as well as Water and Woda are not borrowings one of the other but are instead inherited from a common ancestor of Slavic and Germanic languages. Slavic, Germanic, Romance, Celtic, Greek, Albanian, Armenian, Iranian and Indo-Aryan are all language groups belonging to the wider Indo-European language family, with common ancestors speaking a language linguists refer to as Proto-Indo-European, which is the ancestral language to all of these languages, and which was spoken 6,000 years ago on the steppes of Ukraine and South Russia.

In Greek water is very different it is called "νερό" pronounced "nero" with the accent on the letter "o".

[@elimalinsky7069]

@@Kwstas_Vagias ὕδωρ was pronounced as hödor in Ancient Greek and wōdor in Mycenian Greek. Usually teansliterated into the Latin script as hydor, most known in the form of hydro. As you can see, it is cognate with the English word Water or the common Slavic woda/voda. The word nero I think comes from the commom Greek word for drinking water, or water purified or fresh enough to drink. Later on this word was used to describe any kind of water.

[@georgiykireev9678]

@@PUARockstar Literally nothing he said was true. Let's break it down, bit by bit: Ukrainian and Belarusian history, as in history that can be meaningfully separated from Russian history, began in the 15th century, when The Russian Tsardom and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth first got a defined border, and modern day Belarus and western Ukraine ended up on the PLC side. Due to their isolation from other East Slavs and Polish influence they began to develop linguistic differences, and that laid the foundation for what would later become their national identity. "Kyiv" (Київ) is not a historical spelling or pronunciation, as the name of the city was first Кыієвъ (similar phonetically), then Киевъ (literally modern Russian spelling except for a single minor detail), and it stayed this way for EIGHT CENTURIES straight. Kiev was a major player in the scattered mess of feudalism now called the Kievan Rus in the early mediaeval times, then got conquered by Lithuania and later joined the PLC, then the locals revolted against their Lithuanian leader and went, WILLINGLY, to the Russian Tsardom, and have stayed a part of it and the Empire all the way until the revolutions of the early 20th century, when Ukraine's first attempt at becoming a sovereign country happened. So as you can see, he messed up literally everything - the names, the dates AND the events. Edit: cleaned up some typos

However, 'patate' if not describing a variety, such as 'patate douce' (sweet potato) is seen as a colloquial or less 'correct' variety. In reality, the term 'patate' in French refers to a variety different from that of the 'pomme de terre'. Dans le langage familier, on dit couramment «patate» lorsqu’on veut parler de «pommes de terre». En réalité, il ne s’agit pas du même légume.
