Russian word for eye glaz is also related to the Germanic word glass.

For example well-known old Russian song “Dark eyes” (Очи чёрные / Ochi chornye).

@@marians7364 Не могу углубиться в этимологию слов, но могу сказать точно. В эпоху Ломоносова и, так называемых, трёх штилей, для повествования на возвышенные темы приветствовалось использование церковнославянских заимствований. (Церковнославянский язык - язык, на который перевели Библию греческие пророки. Основан на диалекте южных славян, когда русский язык относится больше к восточным). По сему в русском языке в возвышенной лексики ввиду малой ея употребляемости и, как следствие, изменений застыли формы слов, которые когда-то были одинаковы. Так, из церковнославянского в русский язык пришло слово небо. В русском же оно претерпело со временем некоторые изменения слово с тем же корнем уже имеет другое звучание. Так многие слова, свойственные преимущественно южным славянам передались и Восточным по средством заимствования. Хоть и обозначены слова перст, око, чело и др. как архаизмы, но они употребляются в книжной возвышенной лексике (пусть и реже, чем было до творчества Пушкина). Эти слова стали полноценными словами языка многие сотни лет назад и является неотъемлемой его частию

[@Ax0I0tle]

in a russian we also have a word "oko", but it is the elder word, that don't use every day, but we have some words with base "oko", example: "очки(glasses)", "окно(window)". Actually all slavic language have forms "оче(one eye)" and "очи(eyes)"

[@HeroManNick132]

''окно'' exists but it's archaic in Bulgarian. Nowadays we say ''прозорец'' which comes from ''прозрачен'' (transperant) or ''прозирам'' (something that can be seen barely). Yes ''око, оче, очи'' are one of these leftovers when most Slavic languages had dual number case system like the Sorbian languages and Slovenian which kept it to this day. Bulgarian has another leftover from that: крило - крила - криле

[@Ax0I0tle]

я добавил слово "окно", только потому что оно от того же корня(корень ок(от слова око), суффикс н). вот насчёт него я не уверен в других языках, а вот например око=оче. но суть не в том, автор просто откуда-то взял слово глаз, но не объяснил откуда взялся этот синоним(указал ему на ошибку). кстати словообразование в разных родственных языках очень познавательно и помогает лучше понять даже собственный язык, спасибо за твои примеры@@HeroManNick132

In Russian Perst was used as finger, and it is quite poetic nowadays. The ring on the ring finger is therefore called persten Edit: actually, gloves are called perchatki, and a thimble is called naperstok. As one can see, they both belong to the same word family as aforementioned words, which is kind of cool

[@sabkobds]

South Slavic languages call ring: "prsten/прстен" - and ring finger is "prstenjak/прстењак". So, from "prst" (finger) we get "prsten" (ring), and from "prsten" we get "prstenjak" (ring finger). "Prsten" is mostly ring that goes on finger, but could have other purpose. But there are other words to for other forms of ring (alka, for example).

There is the word "oko" in Russian, it's considered archaic, but still used in idioms. I.e. "an eye for an eye" is "oko za oko", also there is a proverb "vidit oko, da zub neymyot" ("the eye sees, but the tooth can't reach"), the song "Ochi Chornye" ("The Black Eyes", "ochi" is the plural form for "oko"), etc. Hair: in Russian rural dialects there is a variant for plural form "volossiya", almost identical to Ukrainian. Also, in Russian "kosa" means "braid". Finger: in Russian also exists the word "perst" (archaic), the word "persten'" ("signet ring") in modern Russian has its roots in this word. Tongue/Language: in the (Church Slavonic) Bible this word also means "ethnos". The Bible citations became the part of some Slavic languages unchanged. Back: probably, the word "spina" comes from Latin word "spinum", which means "backbone". There is an old word "hrebet" in Russian which also means "backbone".

Hair - well, this is funny, cause ""vlasy" are pl. of hair, which is sg.-only in English. One hair is "vlas", while ""hairs" are "chlupy", where one of hairs is "chlup". But this is probably general Slavic concept. "V" before "O" is also common in spoken Czech from the Bohemian part of the country, i.e. spoken "voko" for eye.

Btw, I know another falso friend with Bulgarian - направо (napravo) wich means "to the right" in Russian and "straight" in Bulgarian.

1:00 The specific Polish word for shoulder is 'bark'. Yeah, people sometimes call it 'ramię' in everyday life but it shouldn't be as that word describes arm. When it comes to the word 'kosa' it is an obsolete term for braid/plait in Polish. I've checked two dictionaries of standard Polish and it says it is "poetic use" in one yet there are no provisions in the other with 'kosa' as in braid being the third or fourth meaning of the word. I don't recall ever hearing this word used by someone in that meaning, it's always been 'warkocz' instead. Which is a pity because it's a fine synonym. It must've been of wider use to describe hair in the past as words for strand of hair and hairy are 'kosmyk' and 'kosmaty' to this day, respectively ('kosmaty' gives way to more common adjectives of 'włochaty' and 'kudłaty' though).

South Slavic H is pronounced the same as the Polish H. In Polish CH/H is the same. This only matters if languages like Ukrainian, Belarusian, Rusyn, Czech, Slovak, Upper Sorbian and Southern Russian dialects have the fricative H sound which changes from G to H sound, they need the CH diagraph, otherwise for the rest is useless. Polish only keeps it for historical reasons, while for the rest Slavic languages it's completely pointless. Serbo-Croatian langusges have 1 letter, 1 sound. Adding C to H will just ruin that rule. If they had the fricative H, then yes but as we said Polish does that but yet they have CH/H.
