This was really cool to watch. I’m born in Australia, but 1st generation Croatian. It was cool to see the small similarities with Bulgarian while also being mega lost when she spoke. Awesome vid

Unfortunately her dictionary is so poor and she doesn't read enough books. But I understand her passion though, even though with a more culture she will be even better.

[@Ivan-fm4eh]

@@HeroManNick132 That's not very nice thing to say... She might not have had much exposure to other Slavic languages before this. Also, she speaks very, very good English so maybe she's lived in an English-speaking country for a long time.

[@HeroManNick132]

@@Ivan-fm4eh Bulgaria sadly is a dying country, no one wants to live here plus no other country has that high of population decline. I understand if there was a war or something but it's not even a war but due to people's greediness and wanting more money to live move to imperialistic west. Plus who tf even cares about Bulgaria, even if I'm Bulgarian? We may have history that slowly we are losing it and became less and less relevant with time. And our corrupt government also sells everything to the West even if they want Bulgaria to be gone from the map.

[@paulwesley27]

In Bulgarian the word “дивен/дивна” [diven/divna] (masculine and feminine, respectively) also means lovely/wonderful. I believe the word “дива̀н” [divàn] in Bulgarian is of Middle Eastern origin (possibly Turkish) and not French as the French word for sofa/couch is “canapé” (which is also used in Bulgarian but not nearly as often as “диван”). Thanks for the video, I’m obsessed with this channel! 😁

[@user-nh6op5rq4y]

The same in Russian: divan (диван) for couch. The word is of Persian origin and came up in some Slavic languages via Turkish.

[@paulwesley27]

@@user-nh6op5rq4y Благодаря, не бях убеден дали произходът е турски или персийски!

[@slovenageorgieva2792]

Had no idea that the word "divan" actually comes from Persian! Haha sounded French to me for some reason 😂 Thank you guys! I would say that the French one "canapé" is used for like more of a posh couch haha I wouldn't use the word just for a regular couch, correct me if I am wrong 😅

[@paulwesley27]

@@slovenageorgieva2792 Всъщност мисля, че канапето по-скоро е просто по-малко на размер от дивана. Може и аз да греша, не съм на 100% убеден.

[@slavicworldofficial1827]

Thank you we really do appreciate it 🙏🏻

[@Nora-sw6uh]

На български имаме дума "фотьойл", но не е синоним на "диван". На фотьойла може да седне само един човек/има място само за един човек, а диванът е за повече хора. Дано не греша, но мисля, че кресло е синоним на фотьойл. Имаме и дума "дивна" (напр. : "дивна гледка", "дивна природа" = удивителна, възхитителна, красива, прекрасна, "дивен свят" и т. н).

[@michel6117]

The video shows perfectly how Bulgarian and Croatian (and therefore all the other south slavic languages) are similar or compatible so to say. They all have their own pronunciation, variants of words and of course also their own words, but eventually share the same "core". Which should not be a surprise, given the cultural and traditional relation.

[@yogiaol]

True, I am Bulgarian, I was in Croatia, and I understand around 80% with no problems.

[@HeroManNick132]

@@yogiaol Хърватите говорят по-меко от сърбите и използват по-малко турцизми от тях и повече падежни форми, докато сърбите употребяват ''да + глагол'' по-често, както ние и македонците. Даже месеците на хърватите са от славянски произход, докато при останалите от сърбохърватските езици са от латински произход, както при нас. Сръбският от всичките сърбохърватски езици има най-малко йекане и повече екане като при нас и затова е най-твърд от четирите варианта, докато хърватите най-много йекат. Ала това се дължи на диалектната разлика между тия езици.

In Polish: 1) igła & nić/nitka, 2) kubek/filiżanka, 3) ziewanie, 4) wrota (but "drzwi" as New Polish form of Old Polish "dźwierze" are more "official" :), 5) słownik (because "rzecznik" in Polish means "spokesman" :), 6) ogrzewanie, 7) cegły, 8) kołdra/koc/pled (którymi można się "pokrywać" :), 9) ekran, 10) fotel (because in Polish "dywan" means "carpet" and "dziwny/dziwna" means "strange" :), 11) monitor, 12) "droga" (in "Official" Polish) or "cesta" (in Silesian & "Góralish" Polish), but "droga" in Polish has nothing to do with the "drug" :-)

[@paulwesley27]

You’ve reminded me that “дивен/дивна” [diven/divna] can also mean strange in Bulgarian (as in Polish). Actually, the verb “дивя се” [divja se] means “to wonder at”.

[@GoestaBerling.]

@@paulwesley27 In Slovakian "díva sa" - he looks at, "diví sa" he wonders at.

[@user-cr5jw6pc2g]

In Ukrainian dyvnyj - дивний means strange. Dyvytysia - дивитися means to look at Dyvuvatysia дивуватися means to wonder at. From the word dyvo диво - wonder or miracle. And dyvovyžnyj дивовижний means wonderful

[@kodekadkodekad4380]

Thanks a lot for the detailed information! I had no idea that "cesta" was used in some parts of Poland. I remember asking a Pole once and he had no idea that "cesta" meant road. Are you from Silesia yourself?

[@Robertoslaw.Iksinski]

@@kodekadkodekad4380 I'm from Lower Silesia, where "Official" Polish ("countrywide TV-Warsawian dialect") dominates, but i can understand Silesian Polish, which in principle is used only in Upper Silesia, although for this reason very high understandability of Silesian Polish is not common in whole Poland :)

[@neckbreaker094]

I'm still waiting for the new videos. Why have you stopped making new ones? :(

[@Ivan-fm4eh]

Probably because these existing ones don't have a lot of views yet, just a few thousand apiece. The thing is, every huge KZbin star went through a period where their videos got very few views. I hope Mario does continue the series...

When new video

[@gfdfgaadfgadfg2309]

The word divan is derived from the root div, giant. Giant is at the same time frightening, but it can also be beautiful,divan. There is also the word divlji wild, giant because it is big, you can be scared of it ,the giant also associates us with something dangerous, wild.Here we also see the similarity between the word divlji and the word wild, only the letters are permutated, which means that it used to be the same word, the same root.In Serbian, each word is easy to explain how it came to be.

И на български за плътно одеало използваме "юрган". Имаме думата "цигла", но мисля, че я използваме вместо "керемида" (ако не греша).

Again at a shock . No Slavic language (except Slovak and Czech "obrazovka") has Slavic word for the screen, even though a lot of countries know the word "obraz", "izobraziť", ... The same case as for the computer, where only Slovaks and Czechs have Slavic word for this.

[@Robertoslaw.Iksinski]

In Polish also exists Slavic word for "screen". It's "wyświetlacz", but "monitor" or "ekran" is more "official" and popular :)

[@paulwesley27]

The literal Bulgarian translation of computer would be “сметач” [smetač], which comes from the verb “смятам” [smjatam] - to calculate/compute. Nobody ever uses that, though.

[@jaga3512]

In Slovenian, the screen on your phone or laptop is called "zaslon". If it is a smaller screen/display built into the device, usually for displaying short messages e.g. temperature, can also be called a "prikazovalnik". It can also be called a "monitor" or "ekaran", but according to the text corpus, their use is three to four times rarer. A computer is called "računalnik" in Slovene.

[@goranjovic3174]

Serbian word for computer is računar too ! We have both in use :) But kompjuter is more popular in everyday speach just as in Poland . :)
