great job!

Great video duo thanks.

Thank you so much for accepting my suggestion! Listening to them here, they don't sound as similar as I previously thought; though I would still say these 2 sound closer to one another than they do to standard German and the Scandinavian languages. Being that Longobardic is said to be an Upper German language, I wonder if this might give credence to Mańczak and Kortlandt's theories about Gothic also being related to Upper German?

The two Germanic tribes who migrated to Italy.

[@Argacyan]

With Langobardic yes (that's the Lombards today), while with Gothic it's a bit more complex with some Goths migrating to Dalmatia & Italy (Ostrogoths). There are smaller elements of other Germanic tribes which overlapped partially with today's Italian borders pertaining to the alps with the Alemanns & Burgundians while the islands were Vandalic-owned anyhow for a while. That's at least talking about the borders of "Italy" the way it is right now, which to be fair is not the ultimate measurement.

[@AntonyCamper]

The last goths land is Crimea peninsula. Last gothic language speaker was dead in 19th century.

[@Argacyan]

@@fabianfuchs1402 From what I know the Crimean Goths did not wander eastwards, but were those goths who didn't wander westwards with the other Goths - the other way around. The Goths initially wandered southwards from what's the area of Danzig, towards Odessa & then split.

As expected Langobardic sounded more like your average contemporary Germanic language except for the last sample

[@RoseRoseRoseRoseRoseRose]

Awww, now I finally got where the origin of the German word _Weihnachten_ for _Christmas_ comes from, it's from the _Gothic_ language ("weihnai" at the timestamp of 0:30) which then together means _Hallow/ Holy Night_ & makes pretty much sense❣️ Because earlier, as a Chechen lady, I was always joking around that there's MAYBE a relation to the Chechen word _Vaynakh_ due to the almost similar pronunciation & which describes Chechens as _the descendants of Noah (the Noah in the Bible with the Ark)_ but thanks to Andy, now I know that there is actually a connection to the Gothic language❣️ Dankeschön for the information❣️💕🥰💕

[@azael1474]

Weinachten simply derives from "weihen": to bless and "Nacht" night, so Blessed or Holy Night. Not an hard etymology. Today's German is not a direct descendant of Gothic, but Gothic is very similar to Early Proto-Germanic.

[@JRJohnson1701]

Langobardic definitely looks like Old High German, or a dialect of it

[@KingsleyAmuzu]

How similar are these languages?

[@ryanmartinez7213]

These languages were from the Middle Age era.

[@AntonyCamper]

And even early. From ancient era, when was Roman Empire. There were many Germanic tribes.

[@kaudsiz]

Gothic, Lombardic, Vandal etc are the oldest Germanic languages. The first Bible translation to any Germanic, and any other Western European language, was Gothic. Gothic is much older the Old Norse languages

[@KingsleyAmuzu]

Before Andy makes Iraqi Arabic and Persian, how similar are Iraqi Arabic and Persian?

[@Εύροκλύδων]

Many loanwords on both sides. But different language families, so the core is very different.

[@codenameeaglecooldown900]

Is Langobardic actually Lombardians?

[@everettduncan7543]

Not modern ones, their language was close to modern Bavarian, and may have influenced or been an ancestor of Moschano and Cimbrian

[@azael1474]

The words Lombard and Lombardy derives from Langobarts, as their main territory and capital lied there. However they left very little impact in the language and genetics

[@tsuneyoshi779無]

[@MrAllmightyCornholioz]

Lombardic = Italian German

[@azael1474]

Yes but no. It did not develop in Italy. It's a very basic old high German dialects, with hard consonant shifts ( upile instead of übel), from today's eastern Germany. Once they invaded Italy they quickly adapted to the local customs and Latin languages, as it often was with other Germanic tribes.

[@viniciuscosta8872]

Both languages sound like Germanic and Slavic together.

[@jesusismyhelp9005]

Slavic part is likely because of assimilation
