In this video, we compare some of the similarities between Ukrainian and Lithuanian, two Indo-European Balto-Slavic languages, with one, Ukrainian, being classified as East Slavic, while Lithuanian is classified as an Eastern Baltic language. For any questions, suggestions or feedback, contact us on Instagram: / bahadoralast
Lithuanian is a Baltic language spoken primarily in Lithuania where it is the official language. It is also one of the official languages of the European Union. Lithuanian is unique in the sense that it is one of only two living Baltic languages, along with Latvian, and among Indo-European languages, Lithuanian has retained many old features which are found only in ancient languages such as Sanskrit or ancient Greek. This makes Lithuanian an important language despite a small number of native speakers, since the language is very vital for reconstructing the Proto-Indo-European language. For several decades, the Lithuanian language was banned in education and publishing. This was due to an uprising the Russian Empire, and the ban was placed on the Lithuanian language by Mikhail Muravyov, the Russian Governor General of Lithuania, barring the use of the Latin alphabet altogether. Lithuanian books, however, continued to be printed across the border in East Prussia and smuggled into the country. Ukrainian is an East Slavic language and the official state language of Ukraine. Just like Lithuanian, for a significant period of time, the Ukrainian language was banned by the Russian Empire, lasting from the early 19th century until the Russian Revolution. Historically speaking, before the establishment of the USSR and even before becoming a part of the Russian Empire, Ukraine and Lithuania had been part of the same state for over 200 years from the 16th to the 18th century, when Poland and Lithuania incorporated Ukraine into the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.

@@martincampbell8126 Well, as a Lithuanian looking at that name, the first thing that immediately springs to my mind is that it's most likely missing some letters(at the very least a single vowel). This is not entirely uncommon, as some Lithuanians that moved to English speaking countries removed one or more letters to make the last name simpler to read/pronounce in the English language. My immediate guess was to look for the one most resembling it (Kanauskas) which returned 2 families, one coming from a big city and one from a small town. But there are other possibilities with very similar last names, which are a little bit more common like Kaniauskas, Karnauskas and several others. In fact, after typing "Kanuskas" into plain ol' google, it returns a public geni page with a family that actually lives IN Scotland and it shows the roots of their last name to be from a man with the last name Kvainauskas. I believe it is possible to get that kind of information here from Lithuania's archives if you provide them with copies of documents proving you are related and such.

It is very similar to Old Persian and Avestan, so does that mean Old Persian and Avestan were the closest to Indo European? Closer than all other branches in the Indo European family? If Lithuanian is the closest living language to PIE then wouldn’t it’s parent language be even closer to PIE compared to Sanskrit?

@@SOOLRASMUS No, it because these are Balto-Slavic words :) They are older than PLC and Soviets :) Some are older than Europe (as a cultural place) because they are form Proto-Indo-European language. If you know how phonology of your language works, etymology of PIE is really fun game :) Eg. G in noga 'a leg' (nominative) changes because of ě into Z (comp. Serbian locative: nozi), and it change into DZ (comp. Polish locative: nodze) or zvon 'a bell' and Polish 'dzwon' (comp. with English 'swan') or zvuk and Pol. dźwięk. So e.g. Polish 'zwierz' [zvierz] was in the past: zv'er' and before Proto-Slavic: *gver :) It's easy to look at Balto-Slavic similarities, it's a lot harder to look at other language families (because PIE's split had a place thousands of years ago). Voiced V can easly became voiceless sound: F --> *gfer (if your ancestors - yhm Romance languages speakers - didn't like consonant clusters, they could do two things: put vowel between them or abandon one of consonants) --> *fer (and you have Latin 'ferus' (-us is gender (noun) ending nothing more) 'a wild animal' (from which English has 'feral' or 'fierce'). It's fun :) I like this channel because my brain loves solving rebuses :) Other example: lets take Polish and Persian words for 'a lake'. In Persian they call it دریاچه [daryâče], in Polish we call it jezioro [jeźoro]. At first, there are no similarities. But then you learn that [daryâče] is from diminutive of دریا [daryâ] 'an ocean, a sea'. This is a first moment when you can see that Polish and Persian people had contact :) če looks like diminutive (CZ=Č) of Polish diminutive (K), e.g. Eng. sun = Polish słonKo --> słońCe, Eng. arm = Pol. ręKA [ren-ka] --> rąČkA, paKa--> paČ-ka. :) Linguists constructed Proto-Indo-Iranian form of ocean as *ȷ́ráyas (comp. Sanskrit ज्रयस् [jráyas]). What English write as 'j' we in Polish write as 'dź' (and what we write as semivowel 'j' English write as 'y'). And from above you know that DŹ is from G, the same like Ź/Z is from G. So we before-Persian *gray- and before-Polish 'ěgoro' (comp. Lithuanian ẽžeras) :) The same word :) Or e.g. lets look at English garden and Polish ogród 'garden'. Ogrod is from ogrodzenie [ogrod'en'e] 'fence', it's from o- 'around' and grodzić [grod'it'] 'to fence, enclose', from *grd. Hindi has गृह [gŕh] 'a house, dwelling' from it, while we in Polish have gród 'stronghold, walled place'

@@magpie_girl3741 Excellent explanation! Should you happen to visit Kyiv, you might wanna check linguistic museum (located at the fourth floor of Kyiv National University named after Taras Shevchenko) - it was created by Professor Tyshchenko, who speaks approximately 40 languages. His major is Finno-Ugric family, but he seems to speak most of Indo-European and Semitic languages as well. He made a map of Iranian and Arabic toponym in the territory of Ukraine threw light on this quite obscure period of Ukraine's history. For example according to him the name Moravia comes from Moors, who passed current Czech Republic if I am not mistaken in 8th century and settled in Ukraine afterwards. In Vinnytsia oblast (region) we have a town named Haisyn (Гайсин) - it does not sound Ukrainian, Slavic or Indo-European at all, but sounds more like a city somewhere in Syria (Arabic was my major). And there are some more cities and villages with kinda strange-sounding names even around our capital. Also in general according to one theory Slavic languages are mixture of Baltic and Iranian: remember that fashion among noblemen (шляхта) of Rzeczpospolita to call themselves as inheritors of the Sarmatians.

“Russians call all Russian as Slavic, so that later they call all Slavic as Russian,” - so in 1844 the great Czech writer Karel Gavlicek warned his compatriots about the danger of ignorant admiration for Russia. the russians have nothing to do with the Slavic. This is their total propaganda and lies. The Russians are not a nation but a military garrison of invaders. Russia is not a country but a collection of occupied territories. The Russians are fake, all their history are thousands and thousands of myths.

As for "sh", "zh", not only Portuguese, but many related and unrelated languages around the globe have these sounds - English, Russian, Polish, French have both these sounds, Italian and Japanese have "sch/tsch"-type of sounds. Latin didn't have these sounds, Ancient Greek did have Z, which was pronounced similarly to the way Italians pronounce "zona" (/dzona/).

@@Arissef I think you have incorrect understanding. Let's take sample Lithuanian words: bebras "beaver", grybas "mushroom". In modern Russian their matches will be bobr, grib respectively. But in Pre-reform Russian of prior to 1918 times they were bobrЪ, gribЪ. And this final Ъ were pronounced in Old Slavic: they were similar to short Russian sound Ы, and originally shifted from short form of O (we see this О/Ы interchange everywhere: усОпший / засЫпание / Lith. sApnas). So you see: bobrЪ was bobro, gribЪ was gribo and so on. The same in Sanskrit, this kind of words are ending with A: vata, jata, sveta, pamsuka (Russian piesokЪ) and so on. So you see, real difference between Lithuanian, Old Slavic and Sanskrit is those final -s, not -as as you think because -a (in Slavic -o) were actually present.

@@rdtgr8 I don't see how your comment is relevant to what I said before. OP said, "Lithuanian does have a Latin or Greek sound to it. Haha." Normally, one of the first things that spring to a person's mind when they think about Latin or Greek is the "-us", "-is", "-os", etc. endings, which indeed are abundant in those languages. Of course, other ancient languages had these endings as well, like Sanskrit, Avestan, Gothic, Old Prussian, etc., but those latter languages are less known or completely unknown to a layperson. So Lithuanian (and Latvian), as the only modern languages where these endings are just as plenty, sound reminiscent of Latin or Greek, which is what the OP pointed out. (Modern Greek has them, too; Spanish has them partially preserved in the verbal morphology; Icelandic/Faroese have them partially preserved in the nominal morphology in the forms like "-ur", "-ar", etc.). As for your Slavic examples, I am fully aware of how the Slavic languages developed. Of course, Slavic languages had the now-lost final vowel but so did Germanic, Celtic and other languages. What is "son" in English, used to be "sūnu" in Old English and "sūnus" in Gothic. "Hand" in Old English corresponded to "handus" in Gothic, etc. So this development applies equally well to other language branches, not just Slavic.

@@Arissef Moreover, I have the feeling that ORIGINALLY Slavic and Iranian languages had final -h on place of Lithuanian -s (and it is more correct shape of this flection whatever Proto-IE reconstructors are dreaming about). It is clearly obvious from inflection of these words. Let's compare: Slavic novЪ(h) "new" vs. Genitive Czech novéHo, Avestan ahura(h) vs. Genitive ahuraHe - you see how this H appears in Genitive. Moreover, unlike Indo-Iranian languages Slavic allows to work natural H/S interchanging in some places: for example, novЪ(h) ---> novoStь "news (sg.)": you see how this S appeared on place of this (H) before T (which is actually HT/ST interchange). In some languages, for example in Ukrainian, such kind of interchanges continues their working: ptaX "bird" / Locative na ptaSi. So my idea is: final -S ending does not mean oldness of language and relation to Proto-IE. It only means that H/S interchange flection froze in S-position. Greek and Latin of course are ancient languages but this wrong -s idea based on them corrupts Proto-IE understanding.

Bahador Alast Yes they belong to different language families but Baltic and Finnic have prehistorically had long intimate contacts with one another, and these are exponentially increased in those two particular languages in more recent history. The connection of Hungarian and Finnish would also be fascinating and necessary, considering the gratuitous levels of pseudolinguistics pervading Hungarian nationalism, but those connections are of an ancient genetic quality and much more difficult to see on the surface than recent superficial contacts which your videos tend to emphasize. I suppose it would be like comparing Persian with English on one hand and with Turkish on the other. Either way it would make for a great experiment.

Литовский язык и восточно-славянские языки (Украинский, Белорусский и Русский) всё ещё имеют родство. Может быть, больше, чем между славянскими языками и иранскими языками. The Lithuanian principality owned the territory of the whole of Byelorussia, partly modern Poland, Ukraine, and most of the western part of Rus to the Polovtsian Field. The Lithuanian language and the Eastern Slavic languages (Ukrainian, Belarusian and Russian) still have a kinship. Maybe more than between Slavic languages and Iranian languages.

Так и есть. Славянские языки близки к балтийским. Некоторые лингвисты выделяют Балто-славянскую группу языков. В частности, известный лингвист С. А. Старостин реконструировал часть лексики прабалто-славянского языка и датировал его распад около 1210 г. до н. э.

@aliman Rudaqi, санскрит - это вымерший индоиранский язык, он родственен литовскому не больше, чем любой другой индоевропейский язык. Если верить лингвистическому анализу, санскрит современник пробалтославянского языка (славяне и балты тогда были одним народом).

The difference is approximately the same as between modern English and Gothic.

It's a very interesting video for me as I speak Russian, which comes from Slavic languages like Ukranian, and Latvian which shares family with Lithuanian. I literally understood every word that has been guessed, because the words were similar either to those in Russian or Latvian or both languages. But Ukranian speach seems to be easier to understand. I couldn't understand anything in Lithuanian when I was a few times in Lithuania. Latvian / Russian: 1. Zvērs / Зверь 2. Sēnes / Грибы 3. Grāmata / Книга 4. Ziema / Зима 5. Tomāts / Помидор 6. Diena / День 7. Sniegs / Снег 8. Ķirsis / Вишня 9. Desmit / Десять 10. Galva / Голова 11. Kāposts / Капуста 12. Bārda / Борода

The challenge is more simple for Lithuanians because they have a contact with Russian and Russian is very similar to Ukrainian. Ukrainians don't have a contact with Lithuanian so for them is harder to guess. Lithuanian is exotic for me and i don't understand this language (I live in the near of Czech and Slovak border). Ukrainian is easier to understand because it is Slavic language. Greetings from Poland.

There is nothing special to have a few similar words with Estonians, Finns, Germans, Belarusians, Polish, Russians, Ukrainians or even Romanians. If for example even with NON INDOEUROPEAN languages we have a lot similarities, if for example between Lithuanian / Latvian / Estonian / Finnish some similarities: Beer - 'alus / alus / õlu / olutä, Ship - 'Laivas / Laiva / Laev / Laiva', Axe - 'kirvis / cirvis / kirves / kirves', Living - 'gyvas / dzivs / kiivas', Diver - 'naras / nirējs / naara / naara', We - 'mes / mēs / me / me', Crow - 'varna / vārna / vares / varis', Pig - 'paršas / sivēns / põrsas / porsas', Aunt - 'teta / tante / tädi / täti', Herring - 'silkė / silke / silk / silakka', Stick - 'lazda / lazda / lasta', Juniper - 'kadagys' / kadikis / kadakas / kataja', Tar - 'derva / darva / tõrv / terva', Ram - 'avinas / auns / oinas / oinas', Sail - 'burė / bura / puri / purje', Trade - 'amatas / amats / amet / ammatti', Kettle - 'katilas / katls / katel / kattila', Wedge - 'kylys / kīlis / kiil / kiila', Wheel - 'ratas / rats / ratas / ratas'... and etc.

"Kirvis" is etymologically similar to "carve". "Antras/antra" is similar to Swedish "andra" which means both second and another. "Tarp" brings an association to "antar" in Ancient Persian. Finnic people only have similar words that were borrowed from Germanic languages, primarily from Swedish.
