Baltic Languages Compared - Nature 

I guess Baltic and Slavic proximity made both language groups keep cognates more closely, than other Indo-European languages, despite Balto-Slavic division happening very long ago.

@@Markov092 I don't know the exact reason, but it could be that they lived side by side for a long time and shared the same or similar cultural elements.

All indo-european langauges are pretty similar to each other btw baltic langauges are the oldest living indo-european langauge branch

Obviously Akmen/akmenis in prussian and yotvingian means Altair (made of stone)

I thought the same

Mind sharing?

If I'm not wrong Estonian is influenced by Finnish? I think I remember reading that it was a Finnic Language

@@rando9352 nordic yes

@@electric_shot155 finnic, nordic isn't a language family

Which words were simular to russian?

Estonian is a Finno-Ugric language, belonging to the Finnic branch. "Nordic" languages are either Finno-Ugric or Germanic (Swedish, Norwegian etc.). Finnish, Estonian, Livonian etc. come from the same Proto-Finnic language, so Estonian is not so much influenced by Finnish as it's just another branch from the same root language. We also have "metsä" in Finnish, which I find surprising. You'd think Finno-Ugrics would've came up with their own word for such a basic thing well before meeting Baltic people.

griaustinis or perkūnas, both are legitimate ways to describe thunder

I would say griaustinis or perkūnija

Here where I live we don't actually use the word "griaustinis" that much. We say "perkūnas" or "perkūnija"

@@simona_merkinin it depends what part of Lithuania you are. West and Easr have differances.

Graustinš! - Is what thunder does after it strikes.

Yup. Es apjuku.

I really liked my priest, he was a really good Fr. Contons, he just died last year. I used to visit him at Regina a retirement home for priests and nuns.

Jotvingiai

@@tomastomastomas1521 ok ačiū

sudūviai-jotvingiai. Dėl jų vienumo nėra aišku. Panašu, kad išlikusieji dabartiniai suvalkiečiai (sudūviai) yra tik viena jotvingių genčių. Kiti jotvingiai (main part) sulenkėjo, sugudėjo, sulietuvėjo (sudzūkėjo). @@Lietuva.tik.Lietuviams

Aišku prūsų kalba neįmanoma rekonstruoti su 50 žmonių, bet Latgalių ir Žemaičių kalbos dar gyvos ir apie kokia "tikroji istorija" jūs kalbat? Taip, mes esam Baltai, kas čia ne taip? Vien žodžių, parašėt kažkokią nesąmonę.

@@Vhisper Paskaityk Gedgaudo "Mūsų praeities beieškant", Račkaus "Gudonai", Statkutės de Rosales darbus. Tada ir sužinosi "kas ne taip" su "baltais". Pisidomėk pats archeologijos, senosios prekybos, genetikos, antropologijos, geografijos bei lingvistikos faktais, ne kažkieno nuomonėmis ir hipotezėmis.

@@Vhisper Kas dėl "Baltų" tai visada reikia turėti omeny, kad tai yra šiuolaikinis išsigalvotas techninis terminas (vengiant istorinių) - istorija nežino jokių "Baltų".

@@naujadiena Juokaujat? Apie lingvistika net nesakykit man. Baltai, Slavai ir Arijai praeity gyvendavo kartu, todėl ir panašumai yra kalbose, paskui buvo periodas kur Baltai labai daug bendravo su finougrais, ir vėl, tai matosi kaip lietuvių, taip ir suomių kalbose bei kitose šiauriečių kalbose. Pvz. Lietuvių "kirvis" = suomių "kirves" Lietuvių "laivas" = suomių "laiva" Lietuvių "gatvė" = norvegų "gate" Lietuvių "bernas" = norvegų "barn" Ir tai tik mažutis pavyzdys. Kalbant apie genus: "Why scientists claim that Baltic gene was formed when European haplogroup was mixed with a Finnic one? Balts and Finnic people almost always lived together. Baltic genome was formed when eastern Germanic people mixed with Finnic people. The brown color doesn’t indicate where the Balts dominate but rather where the Baltic haplogroup can be found. At the same time there is no Scandinavian haplogroup but when the Scandinavian population samples were taken and tested, it found the L1 haplogroup. The researchers looked at what languages those people spoke. They spoke Danish, Swedish and Norwegian. So there is no such thing as Scandinavian genome but the predominant genome of Scandinavian people is L1. There is no Baltic genome but people that speak Baltic languages predominantly have Finnic, Germanic and Baltic genome. I hope that is clear."

Its actually been the flag of Sudovians for a long period.

the last one who spoke Prussian died in 1677 in Curonian Spit. The Sūduvians were Jotvingians, now it is a southwestern Lithuanian-Ukshaitian dialect
