Yay! I’ve been looking forward to this one, as a Hebrew speaker 😁 (ivrit or עברית is the name of the language in the language itself, for those who may not know) Hebrew is more like Spanish where you add letters to the front and beginning to change the meaning, and it’s gendered. It’s probably why I had an easy time picking up Spanish. My brain was already trained to accept that kind of conjugation.

[@nataliefaust7959]

Have you done any study of Ladino yet since you speak both languages?

[@littlecatfeet9064]

Thank you for that info. I would never have connected Spanish and Hebrew (or ivrit ☺️). Not that I speak either, but I love learning facts.

[@MelangeASMR]

Ah I'm very happy you enjoyed it, thank you!!

[@TheGrmany69]

Affixes are the least important aspect of Spanish, the lexicon and its derivative semantic turn very tricky is you try to decipher meaning from compound nouns or affixed nouns. Plus verbs that are very different from Hebrew.

[@abdelrahmanharb7294]

I've never thought that my native language is complicated, I really admire your effort. Good luck

[@MelangeASMR]

I don't know if it's complicated, per se - it's just different from the languages I've learned so it might take a bit more effort to learn the basics. But those languages are usually all the more rewarding. Thank you!

[@moonqueen2037]

@@MelangeASMR as an Arabic person whose mother tongue is Arabic you were absolutely right, It does have a more complicated linguistic system than many other languages that even us Arabic people would need time to master. It’s just because reading, speaking and understanding Arabic comes more naturally to us native speakers we sometimes forget how difficult it actually is to learn for non native speakers. ❤

[@Evelyn82C]

I live in the DC area so I see Ge'ez script all the time but I had never realized that Amharic was a Semitic language. It makes complete sense, I'd just never thought about it!

[@silusmkhwananzi3121]

There is another Semitic language group that The Ge'ez script came from, it's called Epigraphic South Arabian.

[@michailalein]

Swiss german speaker here... I love that diglossia exists in other areas of the world. The appreciation of dialects adds so much more diversity to the linguistic experience🤩

[@pixiecrazy1754]

I think diglossia is fine when it doesn't generate conflict. But it has a darker side in places where one of the languages spoken in them is minoritized (although not necessarily a minority one). I'm from a region in Spain called Galicia (its historical namesake in Eastern Europe appeared a couple of times in the channel 🤣), where the Galician language suffers the legacy of historical prejudices and oppression, so even if today it's legally official in the public spaces and administration, many people still don't speak it but with their family or close friends because of embarrassment, and many other still laughs at those who speak Galician for considering them either extremist separatists or clumsy peasants (as it's tied to the countryside). And it's not easy getting rid of such prejudices when they're very instilled in people's mind. So diglossia is not always an equivalent of ideal languages' coexistence 🙇🏽

[@michailalein]

@@pixiecrazy1754 I know about the prejudice of local languages under Franco in Spain. I think I would not talk of a diglossia in your case since your language has been actively suppressed. (Which is an utter shame and has been shown to cause languages to die!) In Switzerland (and I believe in the Arab speaking countries) local dialects serve as a point of pride that ties natives to the area they are from and gives them a sense of home no matter whether they are talking to their mum or their boss. A diglossia has to be a stable language situation which I am unsure whether it is the case in the north of Spain. Your cuisin though is amazing!!😊

[@pixiecrazy1754]

@@michailalein Certainly, in the case I showed diglossia led to a scenario of glottophagy, as they call it, when a language or a dialect perishes under the abusive influence of another (hegemonic) one. In any case, I didn't intend to say diglossia is harmful "per se", but just wanted to point out what it may conduce to, if people don't (or can't) defend their rights. Even in Spain, at least the regional languages have now the same degree of officiality than Spanish in their respective regions, so there's a basis for their protection and promotion, but in France, for instance, regional languages undergo a harder situation. Switzerland is usually pointed at as an example of a place where several languages coexist in harmony. Our internal nationalistic conflicts make it difficult to achieve that stage, which is truely a pitty 😔 Anyways, thank you for your comment, I didn't meant at all it was false or wrong, just wanted to share my point of view. Switzerland is a land that doesn't feel too far in Galicia, as a lot of Galicians migrated there in the 20th century (the other main destination was Argentina). It's said that every Galician family has or had a member in Switzerland 😂 So greetings from this humble part of the world that has its recent history so tied to yours 😊🙋

[@MelangeASMR]

I immediately thought of German too 😂 Both the diglossia part and the fact that native speakers from different countries can't understand each other sounded very familiar!

[@moonqueen2037]

Arabic is my mother tongue and I always thought of how German is such a great and dense language, always intended to learn it. Will start soon, it’s my 2023 goal.

[@AntPictures]

This is both relaxing and educational. By studying the languages we can see that cultures and countries are thinly connected and thus need to be cherished.

[@PhantomHoover]

Your content remains top-notch! Since the comments section seems to be the place for minor quibbles, I'll add mine: there's no need to equivocate over whether Jesus was a real historical person. It's basically universally agreed on by serious scholars that he was (although of course being sure that someone *existed* is a pretty low bar to clear), and I find the disconnect between this and the popular perception that it's still deeply uncertain pretty interesting in its own right.

[@MelangeASMR]

Hey. I've been meaning to to you, I've been working in retail all through the pandemic. People have been terrible, treating us like trash. There's so many ungrateful people who can't be happy for the fact that we're still open amid being short staffed, the grow up adults throw childish tantrums every day over nothing. The immaturity is draining. I always want to go home and have something relaxing and educational after so much tantrums, verbal abuse and ungratefulness from customers. your channel has been spot on perfect for it, I genuinely mean that. It's absolutely refreshing for the nerd in me because I love learning and to drain out the immaturity from customers. Thank you so much. I look forward to more of your videos.

Hey Ariel, sorry about the late reply! I can emphasize so much with your experience - I don't work retail, but I've had similar experiences since the pandemic. You can definitely tell when people in general are more stressed and it can be pretty exhausting. I'm really happy to hear you've found a good way to relax, though, and honestly, I'm honoured that my videos are helpful to you. I wish you many, many restful nights 💖

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! 💖

[@faroukouldaissa]

The term Berber was used by the Romans, it came from latin barbari, which means "uncivilized" or "savage" so there is nothing to be proud about when using this term, better use "Imazighen origins" Also the origin of Tifinagh is Phoenician So Phoenicians came and brought with them writing and Arabs came and brought with them religion, there is really nothing to complain about

Wonderful presentation once again. So relaxing. I think there is some very interesting prehistory related into speaking Aramaic as the Lingua Franca together with the Phoenician roots of alphabets. Good to get a broad overview of the Semitic languages. Really wish I had progressed my very early explorations into language. So much can be gleaned from language when you understand how they have been put together and inter-related. Thank You. 💮😊

[@MelangeASMR]

Never too late to dig into languages! Early Semitic is super interesting - I had no idea until I was reading on thingsfor this video that so many of these early household-name-civilizations were linguistically related. It's fascinating! Thank you so much!

[@naturalexplorer]

@@MelangeASMR I would like to think so - I like languages. French and German when young and some Finnish practice later in life. I guess my main issue with them is that unless I am constantly speaking the language I will simply forget everything. This is what seems to happen. Need to be immersed within it is my view and this is not available where I am. A move seems warranted for developing good language skills. Certainly is fascinating.

So you took Turkish language lessons? :) lovely! Must have been a bit harsh. Btw, I’d like to put a little reminder here since people are commonly mistaken about this: Turkish is an Asiatic language, not related to Semitic or Indo-European families. It belongs to Altaic languages which also inclused Tungusic, Korean, Mongolian and Japanese. But yes, during the movement of the Turkish tribes, the vocabulary was affected by the neighboring cultures such as Persian, Arabic, Greek, Armenian and even Italian.

[@MelangeASMR]

I really enjoyed the lessons! Obviously the grammar takes some getting used to haha, but the fact that it's so different from Indo-European makes it really interesting, plus the teacher was very nice. No complaints from me! There's a video on the Turkic languages in the playlist linked at the end :)

[@joshuajohnson3296]

This video is amazing. As someone who studies these languages, I found this a highly interesting introduction to the Semitic languages! The books that you used are priceless, it’s a same they don’t make books like that here in the states. The speakers of German pioneered the study of the orient and the Semitic languages, so it’s no wonder these books originated in German as well! Did you find these recently, or did you have them since you were little?

[@MelangeASMR]

Thank you so much, I'm very happy you enjoyed it! The books are recent finds; I wasn't that much into linguistics as a kid haha. And I'm sure you can find fantastic publications in English, probably more than in German. These days, I don't think you can have an academic career in a German speaking country unless you publish in English.

In the text above you failed to mention Ethiopic (Ge'ez) a Semitic language that is closest to the so-called Proto-Semitic, still used as a clerical language in the Ethiopian and Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church. Also, you mistakenly mention that only these two churches split from the European, Rome based church. This is the same for all so-called orthodox churches: Coptic, Syrian, Armenian, Russian and Greek Orthodox Churches.

[@broefkip]

Something I found curious, but you referred to the area where israel is as "Levante" (at least this is what I heard and also what the subtitles showed). Why do you refer it as that? I've only ever heard it called Mesopotemia, the crescent, Asia Minor or the Middle East before.

[@MelangeASMR]

Sure, that's a good question! Mesopotamia is specifically the region around Euphrates and Tigris (centered in Iraq) and Asia Minor is a part of Turkey, so these are smaller sections, but Levant, Near/Middle East and Fertile Crescent are roughly the same area and true, I could have used either one of those. Especially Near/Middle East seems very nebulous to me, though - it might have to do with a slightly different connotation in German where Middle East extends all the way past Afghanistan. Levant on the other hand is something I see relatively often around Vienna (lots of restaurants advertising Levantine cuisine lol) and in my understanding is more speciically oriented towards the Mediterranean, but yeah, probably depends on the language and on what sources you pick!

[@broefkip]
