The letter C in Slovene is always pronounced like "ts" in "tsar". So it's [Lipitsa], not [Lipika]. The letter Č is always pronounced like "ch" in "cherry". So it's [Socha river], not [Soka river].

It's wonderful that you like to share info about other countries, learning about other cultures is always very interesting and important. It would be even more wonderful if you could take those extra 5 minutes and learn how to properly pronounce the names of these other countries. Most countries' languages don't follow the pronunciation rules of English, so it's a little bit entitled to think you can read the names as if they're in English. But other than that, it's nice to see that other appreciate Slovenia and its beauty :)

Few more facts: You mentioned 3 major language subhubs: slavic, german and romanian(ish) in first part, but you forgot about Hungrian subhub. We have whole county called "Prekmurje" - most eastern part, also known as "head of the chicken". This county is separated from the rest of the country by river Mura and people there speak a mix of Slovenian and Hungarian(ish) language. Rest of Slovenians hardly understands them :) In addition to all language mix, we also have duality in Slovenian language. I think there is only ore or two more languages in the world using duality (to describe anything that happens about two people), so with beautifull countryside and duality we could be proclaimed as most romantic country in the world. We also have word love in name of our country: sLOVEnia (sLOVEnija in slovene). And there is "heart" road in Slovenia as well - road in shape of heart. Also check up how many scientists and inventors our country produced - you will be amazed. And Slovene or Slovene-ish language has been recognized from almost Roman times - back to first Sam's kingdom in 623AD, but most famous was state of "karantanija", where we had our duke (or whatever you would call "Knez") elected and first written word in Slovene language is from "Brižinski spomeniki" from around 1000AD (some say even around 970), but historians think that Slovene language has been here before probably even in Roman times as some of the peacefull Slavonic tribes settled here. Here we also probably have most different wines as we have 3 major different wine counties: štajerska (white wine), dolenjska (some white and red, and mixed wines) and primorska (mostly red wine). From food we also have a lot of delicious food like: pršut, potica, gibanica, krofi, ajdovi žganci, kranjska klobasa,... And we also have great Savinjska region where hops are growing best so some of the best hops in the world is coming from Slovenia (some people say we have over 100 different micro or small breweries). So yeah, alcohol is very rooted in our culture. :)

Slowly, some update of this video could be done. Another Slovenian here. Quite a few people wrote that you were pronouncing wrong. I don't blame you, the Slovenian language is not exactly one of the easiest, but of course it is not the most difficult. But nonetheless, everyone who encounters him for the first time has big problems. With all genders and inclinations and times, it is necessary to deal with duality as well. This is also one of our characteristics. We are one of the few nations that still actively uses duality in its language. Interestingly, the duality is supposedly known in American Sign Language as well. Letters like Č (ch -chery) Š (shower) Ž (I have no suggestion :)). The difficulty of the language is also shown in the fact that we have quite a few words that are difficult for us to pronounce, let alone a foreigner, one of which is "Čmrlj" - bumblebee. In such a small area as Slovenia, it is true that only about 2 million people live at home, but it is necessary to know that almost every village has its own dialect. Slovene is the most dialectally broken down among Slavic languages, knowing more than 30 dialects, which are divided into 7 dialect groups. Thus, if, for example, two Slovenes spoke in pure dialect, one from one and the other from the other end of Slovenia, they would not understand each other. However, Slovenians are very receptive to other languages. According to statistics from 2012, as many as 91% of Slovenes speak at least one foreign language. There is almost no young person who does not understand and speak at least one (and in many cases even two or more) foreign languages, and understanding at least basic English is almost a necessity, as English or German is taught as a foreign language in all primary schools. Later, an additional foreign language is added. So this is only few thing about our language, there are allot more facts to discover about Slovenia for which are we so special and in some cases unique.

Slavonci so tako ali tako Kajkavci, to pomeni Slovenci. v bistvu smo isti narod, katerega so presekali na pol Nemciin Madžari približno 1000 let nazaj.
