Similarities Between Sanskrit and Domari

[@BahadorAlast]

Domari, which is sometimes referred to as Middle Eastern Romani, is an Indo-Aryan language spoken by the Dom people, a nomadic group originating from the Indian subcontinent who migrated and settled in the Middle East many centuries ago.

Bahador plz a request ,take your time 🙏 but please I want a sankrit videos with all languages from India to English channel🌊🌀 . Bcoz all ,yes all European languages have sanskrit words in it . Lithuania ( god ) = deva , sanskrit = deva English = 3 (three) , sanskrit = trree Eng = hepta (7) , sanskrit= septa Eng = name , sankrit = nama Eng = cow , sanskt = Gau Eng = mother , sansk = matra Italian = argentine (silver ) , sansk= arjun French= mort (death) , sansk = mrut This is just the tip of iceberg. Plz plz plz take your time may be year/s but make sanskrit videos with All European languages . That will attract a lot of crowd both from India and Europe. One more 😁 Czech = veda (science which means knowledge) , sansk= veda ( knowledge ) Another thing I forgot to write is The country Syria is pronounced "Ceeria" by us outsiders but the citizens of that country call their motherland as " sooriya " , which means sun 🌞 and the land of sun and guess what Sun is called in sanskrit , yes , exactly , it's called "Sooriya"

Not so similar, but "anya" sounds like "aria" a little bit) - churika/churi/coltello (knife, "coltello" comes from "culter", Latin word also meaning "knife", very similar to ENG "cutter" as well.

The resemblance is so close that its pronunciation is almost like another person from another state of India saying it. The initial migration detail is very helpful. In general it is a wonderful way of bringing people together. Excellent, positive effort - very laudable.

Domari language is much more closer to Hindi ( than Sanskrit) spoken in northern parts of India. Loved this video... I have read a lot about nomadic Indians migrating to central Europe 1000 years back and now watching some body from same lineage, speaking the language which has retained almost all the Hindi words.

[@kimayakane4523]

Actually they similar or exactly the same in both Hindi and Marathi .And some of the words are exactly the same, but only found in marathi. I think its because , their ancestors came from north and central india.

Two brilliant youth! The similarity between these two languages is amazing!

I'm an indian and I know sanskrit but got to know about Domari first time in my life. And I got every word except the sentence at 17:18 but later grabbed it too and believe me, Shivani was throwing hard words toward him but he caught all. ❣️🙏

Im Tamil.. Many words of Samskrta are used. Although we have our own words for each word bt mostly used word is Samskrta origin words...

[@ujwaltelang5803]

Great video!!!! 💯 So many words from Domari seemed almost the same as the words that are seen in Marathi and Hindi from the Sanskrit words, for example like Sap (साप), kaan(कान), and for Hindi like Ungli(उंगली), Pasom like Pas(पास). Amazing video! Interesting to see links between Sanskrit and Domari! 😊👍

What is 'pasom'? As an urdu and hindi speaker, I can confirm that words like 'saap' (سانپ) 🐍, kaan (کان) 👂, and ungli (انگلی) 👆 exist in urdu as well. Also the hindi spelling of snake is 'साॅंप' not 'साप'

[@tazziiieee]

@@redlamper 'मज्जन' is the sanskrit word for 'to send', I presume? Is it a conjugated or declined form of another verb?

[@ujwaltelang5803]

@@tazziiieee I was referring to the Marathi spelling of Saap (snake) 🐍 which is indeed साप, and the spelling you referred to, साँप, is the Hindi spelling, which has a nasal sound in it unlike the Marathi spelling. Also he said that pāsom means 'at me', now if we think of let's say 'I have a book', we will say 'ek book (kitab/pustak) mere *pas* hai' in Hindi. I am referring to the word pās पास پاس because the termination '-om' sounded more like a possessive ending for the word and I felt that pāsom would mean 'near me' literally 'my near' if we think of Farsi this makes more sense. Think of 'my book' in Hindi we say मेरी किताब (मेरा पुस्तक), and in Urdu میری کتاب , and in Farsi there are two ways one is kitab-e-man کتابِ من or kitabam کتابم, similarly considering the latter form(kitab+am), taking the word pās, adding a termination such as '-om' would mean "near me" *(pās + om)*. Hence when I thought of the word "pāsom" I thought of it with two parts "pās" and "-om" with the first part meaning pās (near) पास پاس as we would use in Hindi/Urdu and the second part as a possessive termination meaning "of me", as a result I thought of it as "near 'of' me/ my near/ near me", just the way we say मेरे पास میرے پاس (mere pās).

I am a Bengali person. Surprising thing here is most of Domari words' pronunciations are almost similar to Bengali pronunciations, rather than original Sanskrit ones.

[@sahasransusbarik]

Sanskrit=Prakruta=Odiaa (100% closer) than any other Indian languages. Followed by Bengali and Asamese. Prakruta was spoken in Indua during Maurya empire in between 500 BC by general public. Sanskrit was spoken by Priestly class people during Mauryan empire. ODIAA language is the direct descendant of Prakruta language.

[@TinyPrintsArt]

Video was great, thank you for sharing this,here words from domari were so similar to Marathi language than sanskrit, although sanskrit is mother language here, Also I would like to add here, there is one tribe in maharashtra known as "Dombari" ( it's extinct now) ,these people were nomads basically and use to travel from one village to the other performing acrobatics. Name here in marathi " dombari" and Morden name " domari " is very similar too.

[@ashishvilekar4257]

Exact words were going through my mind when I was reading your comments. I had Sudanese students as PGs in Pune city they too had similar words as "kuthmir for kothimbir","Misar for Masur(dal)* "Wafalya for boil"and so many all are similar marathi words. I wonder if Mr. Bahador would be able to manage a session with Sudanese language.

[@ashishvilekar4257]

I had Sudanese. PGs in Pune city they had many Marathi words.Wonder whether similar session would be possible with Sudanese language as Sudan is exactly opposite to Maharashtra geographically and this would be easier to Ms.Shivani as she seems to be familiar with Marathi.

[@juhdaalthaf4329]

Wow...! Lot verbs in Sanskrit & Domari also known in Ancient Javanese language (basa Jawa Kawi), and now some of them are still being used in Indonesian languange with a little adaptation. It can be happened since Nusantara (ancient Indonesia) had a close relationship thousand years ago (era of Srivijaya or Majapahit) with ancient India. These are the examples: Vayu = vay = bayu (Jawa Kawi) = angin (Indonesian) = wind/air. Varsa = vars = warsa (Jawa/Indonesian) = tahun (Indonesian) = year. Manus = manusya = menus (low-level of Javanese) = manusia (Indonesian) = human. Ag = agni = geni (low-level of Javanese) = api (Indonesian) = fire. Sarpa = sarp = sarpa (just the same in Jawa Kawi) = ula (low-level of Javanese) = snake. Some other verbs may also have similar verbs in Jawa Kawi, but I don't know exactly, because Jawa Kawi is a rare languange that being spoken by common people now, except Javanese royalties of Yogyakarta or Surakarta. We can get Jawa Kawi fluently only if we study at university. But Jawa Kawi still can be found in tembang macapatan (traditional Javanese songs). Yeah... I think this channel is cool!

That is because there was historical link between Southern India and Indonesia that's the reason u see so many Hindu Mandirs in Bali.

[@ashaypallav4158]

Your Javanese language will also be similar to all the Indo-European languages which includes Greek, Latin, Baltic languages etc... . In Indonesia you guys have influences from Sanskrit, Malay, Aramic/Hebrew which is like covering more than half planet.

Sanskrit language is the oldest language of the oldest civilization on earth of the Arya of Bharat (India). Thus u see the language spreading out in all directions from epicentre of Central India. It travelled to far East of Java and far West to Caspian Sea region and North to Russia.

I realised Malay is similar to Sanskrit when i saw Tandas boards in KLIA and i was like ohhh SANDAS 🤪🤣

[@infinite5795]

Being an Odia speaker, I can understand everything, but my case is that all words are same with that of Sanskrit, even the last sound of "a" at the end just rounded to ô/aw sound. Odia is the only indo-aryan language that don't have Schwa deletion like Sanskrit, all other indo-aryan languages have schwa deletion. Also, some words have more retroflex sounds, like anguli is Aanguļi in Odia( the l is a retroflex sound here). I had never heard of Domari or even, indigenous communities of Indians living outside India except the Indian diaspora in the Caribbean, North and South America and the South-east Asian countries like Malaysia. Well, it is Interesting to know.

[@adityav.joglekar3343]

The retention of the schwa at the end of the word and the retroflex L has been retained in Marathi too

[@infinite5795]

@@adityav.joglekar3343 not completely though. The very first word for lotus is Kamala is Sanskrit, kamaļ in Marathi but still Kamaļa in Odia( l in Sanskrit is normal l, but retroflex l in Marathi and Odia). Although, Marathi retains the actual inherent vowel (ə) of Sanskrit which Odia doesn't ( it has short ô/aw as the inherent vowel), Marathi doesn't have the inherent vowel in every word due to Persian influence, but still a large % doesn't have schwa deletion. Even, when you speak Marathi in fast pace, the last vowel is dropped frequently. But, Odia does not, every letter in a word has the inherent vowel and it is still pronounced, be it slow or fast paced.

[@AjitJoshi686]

The Odia people (Kalinga people) were sailors and went to Sri Lanka, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia by sea from India around 800bc. There should be research on comparison between Sinhalese and Thal with Odia. It will be interesting video to watch.

[@adityav.joglekar3343]

@@infinite5795 the inherent vowel being absent from Kamal in Marathi is a good point but that’s an exception. Almost any other word ending in अ that I can think of retains the schwa - eg artha, vyartha, sambandha, prashna. We do not delete it even in rapid everyday speech. In fact we add it even to some words borrowed from Persian - eg karz becomes karja
