ROMANCE: SPANISH & ROMANIAN

[@CrysolasChymera2117]

The people that mix both languages are known as "Rumañoles" (Rumanians+Spaniards) [Rumanos+Españoles]. I was waiting for this video.

[@CrysolasChymera2117]

Also search on KZbin for the "Rumañol" very good rapper, representing the Romanian-Iberian community.

[@vlachlemnmichail]

who tf would mix such distant languages? I mean I can understand Surzhik, but Romanian+Spanish, nah man

[@languageseureka]

Didn’t know that Romañoles exist! Wow

[@sr32k2]

@@vlachlemnmichail they aren’t really distant, they’re both Romance languages & one of the closest to Latin (Sardinian being the direct offspring to Latin), while French is the most distant. But all modern Romance languages are closer to each other than to Latin (except for Sardinian for sure)

[@CrysolasChymera2117]

​​@@vlachlemnmichailresult of migratory movements, that mixture is spoken by small communities with fluency in both languages that ended up mixing them into a kind of pidgin, as for example declining Spanish nouns the romanian way, or using romanian words into a sentence that is mainly Spanish, it is similar as how the Llanito language pidgin in Gibraltar works. Some examples: închide ventana te rog (close the window please), haide in comedor (let's go in the living room), he entendido că tenemos que ir vineri la boda de la prima ta (I've understood that we've got to go Friday at your she-cousin's weeding) and so on.

1:51 greşelile looks to me like a loanword from a Slavic language. "грех (grekh)" means sin in Russian. "bezgreshny" is a person without any sins. And "izbăveşte" is like izbavit' in Russian.

[@bencebuda4599]

I'd say that the words that has the most to do with religion have the most chance to be of Slavic origin, for example dragoste (love), a iuba (to love), trăi (to live), diavol (devil, althoug it sounds almost the same as diavolo in Italian). But I have to contradict myself here because there's another word for sin, păcat, which comes from Latin peccatum. Also the word for God, Dumnezeu, comes from Domine Deu, which is undoubtedly Latin. Also another word that has everything to do with religion is ruga (to pray), coming from Latin rogare. Compared to rogar in Spaniss and pregare in Italian the similarity is indeed noticeable. Also there's the word rugare which is almost the same as rogare. That's what makes Romanian a very interesting language to be honest, you can definitely see the Slavic influence but it's so damn Latin at the same time.

[@andreivlad3518]

Romanian is 40%slavic influence.

[@jonarthritiskwanhc]

@@andreivlad3518 No, according to a research conducted by Kim Schulter in 2009, the percentage of inherited Latin words is 60%. Meanwhile, 19% of words are borrowings from French or Italian, and 14% of words are from different Slavic languages.

[@pokeshark]

the words of Old Slavonic origin are: sființească (Sl: sventŭ, Eng: hallow/sanctify), greșelile/greșiților (Sl: grĕšiti, Eng: mistakes/mistake doers), ispită (Sl: ispytati, Eng: temptation), izbăvește (Sl: izbaviti, Eng: save/salvation) Old Slavonic was the church language for centuries and many words with religious connotation were borrowed in Romanian.

[@cosdache]

Vocabulary similarity is indeed low apart the first four numbers and some words like yo -- eu and piel--piele; most words are different even if they come from the same latin words. Italian is the most similar to Spanish as regard similary . However ,Romanian and Spanish share grammatical feature like compound tenses with verb "to have " and comparative form with mas/mai .

[@valevisa8429]

The closest to Romanian is still Italian,which make sense,the two languages being neighbors for almost 1000 years.

[@InAeternumRomaMater]

Yeah, not to mention that some linguistics believe that Dalmatian was the gate between Romanian and Italian

[@valevisa8429]

Quite possible.Dalmation was the bridge between Western Latin and Eastern Latin.@@InAeternumRomaMater

[@jonarthritiskwanhc]

No, the closest is either Sardinian or Neapolitan

[@jonarthritiskwanhc]

@@malarobo Sardinian and Romanian share plenty of words not found in other Romance languages. Both of them also share a similar phonological change of dropping the intervocalic /b/ and /v/ in Latin words.

[@jonarthritiskwanhc]

@GiovanniGiacomeValverdeD-sy6rb What did you not understand?

[@tomfamily1149]

Can you also make a video with Catalan and Romanian?

[@tomfamily1149]

So much Romanian words are so similar to their Spanish variants.

[@iwillnotcomplyistandformyf6642]

These are the languages that have Arabic and Turkish influences in their languages: Catalan, Romanian, Portuguese, and Spanish

[@luiscastaneda4583]

Romanian may have turkish influences but certainly neither Spanish (Castillian actually), Portuguese nor Catalan have turkish words. We do have plenty of arab words though.

[@iwillnotcomplyistandformyf6642]

@@luiscastaneda4583 Ok 👌🏽

[@Davlavi]

Wow new they were both Romance languages but so close is amazing.

[@wharlinfernandez]

I imagine someone from romania if there were to be a fire screaming (foc, Foc)🤣

[@alexbulza50]

Why?

[@iwillnotcomplyistandformyf6642]

@wharlinfernandez Oh yeah, well "father" in Romanian and "seal-(animal)" in French are even more terrible 😂

[@insertname9736]

What do you mean? At least it's shorter when screaming for help than "fuoco", "fuego" or "fogo". "Foc" is also the same in Catalan.

[@ruben4447]

Choosing the Prayer for Romanian will obviously not be similar to the other Romance languages. Thats because its old and uses slavic words that we dont even use anymore. Almost every slavic word has a latin synonym which is far more often used. The slavic words are only used among elders.

[@pokeshark]

only 4 words are of Slavonic origin in that text: sființească, greșelile/greșiților, ispită, izbăvește who cares anyway? Spanish has Arabic words, Italian has Germanic/Arabic, French has Germanic words. each language has its own flavors on top.

[@ruben4447]

@@pokeshark Thats what ive been saying for ages. But it seems like people still dont understand. They see one slavic word and instantly say the whole language is slavic. People from Latin countries even started to say Romanian is a fake latin languages. They are just uneducated.

[@minhaconta4685]

"Mana" in romanian sounded exactly like in brazilian portuguese 1:11

[@taelenfl27_]

No, "mão" Is not sounded exactly "mãnã". There Is a clear difference

[@Ama-hi5kn]

In Spain exist a lot of different languages. Castilian standard is only one of them. Catalan and Galician is probably the closest to Romanian you can get.

[@Langwigcfijul]

Catalan is about as close as French is, and Galician is about as close as Portuguese is.

[@Ama-hi5kn]

@@Langwigcfijul Yeah. Where I lived in Spain people spoke Catalan on an every day basis. So I learned it by listening to it. But Romanian has been separated for a long time and has influences from the languages around it. I can read Portuguese ok, but when Portugese people speak I have to concentrate and ask them to repeat if they speak too fast. They understand me just fine, but the other way around is more difficult.

[@carlosjonhson]

As a spaniard, i was expecting at least one "e bue ce face" 😔

[@carlosjonhson]

@GiovanniGiacomeValverdeD-sy6rb no sé jaja lo dicen los de mi barrio

[@CrysolasChymera2117]

Bă ce faci, means Hey how are you?. In romanian to ask how is someone, you have to ask "what are you doing" but listener will understand you perfectly and will answer something like "bine, tu?", well, and you?

[@cosdache]

As a Romanian, the two are distant and distinct . Romanians who claim to understand most of Spanish without prior knowledge of at least basic vocabulary are lying .

[@Plata-ori-plumbu]

I live in Miami. I understand Spanish very well. So, stop lying...

[@cosdache]

​@@Plata-ori-plumbumaybe you spoke Spanish in your previous life .😂

[@LeON_MCMLXXVII]

When comparing the Romanian language with another foreign language, avoid presenting prayers or verses from the Bible. The reason is straightforward. Church terms in the Romanian language contain many words of Slavic origin because the Romanian church was very long influenced by the Bulgarian one. And, consequently, this comparison is not eloquent compared to the rest of the daily colloquial conversations.
