Comparison of European Languages: VEHICLES 

In Italy they usually say Macchina not Auto

In Polish submarine is łódź podwodna. Word "podwodny" itself means underwater We have a lot of words for van, but bus and dostawczak are most commonly used

Thank you! A few comments: The Swedish, Danish, Faroese, Icelandic and Greenlandic words for "tram" (spårvagn, sporvogn, sporvognur) does not share etymology with German "Straßenbahn" and should therefore have another colour. "Spårvagn"/"sporvogn" consists of "spår"/"spor" (track) and "vagn"/"vogn" (wagon, carriage), while the German word consists of "Straße(n)" (street(s)) and "Bahn" (route, trail). So, "track wagon" vs "street trail". Since the French word for "bike" is "vélo" I think France should not have the same colour as the "bicicleta" countries, as it does now, but as the "velociped" countries. The Norwegian word for "train" given here (jernbanetog) means "railway train". I think they usually say only "tog". At least "tog" is the "heaviest" part of the word ("Jernbane-" just specifies what kind of "tog" it is, since the word can have a few other meanings as well), and because of that I think that Norway should have the same colour as Sweden, Germany etc. And last, we usually don't say "undervattensbåt" but only "ubåt" (shortened form) in Sweden. Even in like TV news they would talk about it as "ubåt".

a few "mistakes" about words used in portugal: not "trem" but "comboio", not "ônibus" but "Autocarro", not "balsa" (never heard that word before) but "ferry" and not "van" but "carrinha". Probably words from Brasil. Nice video

I'd say "ship" in Belarusian is "карабель" (karabiel'), and "судна" is a swimming vessel. We also use "човен" (choven) for a small boat, but mostly for a dugout canoe. As for the bicycle it really depends on a region. In my region we use "веламашына" (velamashyna) and I've heard about "лісапета" (lisapeta). For a van we would use "бусік" (busik) - literally a small bus :)

in Bulgarian we don't use velosiped as the primary word for bike. We mostly call it " kolelo " which in literal translation means "Wheel". If we're being more official in our speech, then yes, we'd probably use "velosiped" instead, but in casual conversations most people would call it " kolelo ". Also nobody ever calls a helicopter as "vertolet" anymore. You'd sometimes hear elderly people call it that, but nobody under the age of 50 would call it that. We call it "helikopter" instead, the same way it would be in English.

Nice video😊

In Estonian: * "jalgratas" and "mootorratas" are both typically shortened to just ratas. There's also "motikas" for motorcycle and "velo" for bicycle - "ratsu" and "jalku"/"pedla" respectively and much more rarely. * "Veoauto" isn't technically wrong, but everybody use "veok" instead - as for trucks (roadtrain), those are "rekka" * helicopter is typically shortened to "kopter" * "Parvlaev" tends to go more into cruise ship 🚢 category (flat bottomed); those which just carry cars over rivers or between isles are "praam"; entirely flat, or what kids may build from logs and/or barrels onto a pond, is "parv". * "kaubik" specifically refer to cargo-van (derived from "kaup", meaning cargo; goods) Trivia * vehicle is "sõiduk" - it's often used synonymously for "auto". Cars are informally often referred to as "käru"(cart) * Train engine is "vedur" - it's also used for tractors and tow trucks/ships. * Old term for "takso"/"delivery-service" is "voor", thus nowadays "takso" refers to engine powered vehicles, while "voor" to animal-driven...

The word for "Bus" in european portuguese is "Autocarro", the word "onibus" is super archaic in europe (it was also used in Spanish) and nowadays I believe it's pretty much only used by Brazilians.

I always look forward to these videos. The Sicilian translations are optimal! I would just add, you can also say cammiu and camiuni for truck. Some other words can be written more precisely considering the use of Sicilian prefixes and suffixes: autubussu or autubussi; trammi; vurguni; tratturi; and suttamarinu.

In Romanian we also use ”furgoneta”, ”van”... ”Camioneta” we use when it does not have the back like a hermetically closed box with tin, but possibly with a tarp.

For Bosnian, it's čamac for boat. You can also say biciklo and motor for bicycle and motorcycle.

Why is spanish "coche" made in the same color as "auto"?

I never knew barca meant boat in several Romance languages like Catalan, Spanish, Italian and Romanian

As a Polish from south part of State for vehicle we mostly using word auto not "samochod" auto is far more accurate word than "samochod" for vehicle which is more popular in central or east Poland

In German, there's also Wagen.

In Ukraine,the word for Helicopter, is Helikopter, its very commonly used

In french auto and automobile are used often

For van in dutch, you can also say "Busje"

The Danish word for taxi is actually taxa. Interesting that Iceland has imported the word "bil". They are very reluctant to import words. They have not imported "bus", which was formed in he same way. From "automobil" and "omnibus" respectively.

6:58 its trekker in dutch. But a lot of dutch people say Tractor

We use usually "Araba" not "Otomobil" or "Oto". Yeah we also have those words for car but most of time you'll hear araba in Türkiye. For bicycle, some Turkish people say "Velespit" similar to Russian "Velosiped", it's south and southeastern accent. We never use "Furgon" (I never heard it) we use "Kamyonet" like French "Camionette" for van.

In dutch you've two words for ferry "Veerboot" and "Veerpont" or just "pont"

Again in dutch two words for submarine "Onderzeeboot" and "Onderzeëer".

Leoforeio seems more portuguese than greek
