Livonians, a tiny voice in the Baltics 

Amazing! I'd love to know more about the livonians. Especially because my family name came from there. I'm from Brazil btw.

Upload them to the internet

@@umbertolivanifilho1278 You can watch the very recent lecture by Valts Ernstreits (he was in this reportage as well): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-d6ig3YQ5Z64.html

@@kirpitis appreciate that!

Do you speak any of it? Or do you know anyone that does? More videos pls 😁

Zoltan Csikos i feel the same way. Love from Estonia

Love from Finland brothers.

All uralic people should be independent ;(

love from estonia aswell

Napoli 88 Hools Google Livonia and the Livonians...

So many have disappeared already, and we are unfathomably poorer for it.

Oh, cómo lo estás estudiando? :o

I will gladly help with pleasure, as I´m also a cultural activist and love European languages, even non Indo-Europeans like this one but the problem is we hardly get teaching material in these endangered languages and there´s also the risk that I may find it too difficult (Estonian, for instance, has three types of 'r' which are quite a challenge to me, I think I can pronounce all the other phonemes without much difficulty but this one has overwhelmed me, smile).

Luischocolatier Wow i Didnt know that spanish people try learning this language Hail Livonia!!!😃😃😃

So long so far brother! Now you can hear the language if you go to some of the Livonian towns in Latvia and on RU-vid. Also your comment is a month older than my age😊.

@Homo sapiens sapiens :( i wish the older generation could teach the younger generation it :((

responding to a 7 years old comment but, why do you think that? They are both under the finno-ugric language branch.

@Broccoli 24 Well hungary and nordic curonia is 1100 km apart and these two languages had thousands of years in separation and evolution witch means on the basic scale these languages are completely different, of course there are words that are pronounced or even spelled very similarly. However english was created by a mixture of dialects and languages (mostly Celtic,Germanic and latin ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-H3r9bOkYW9s.html) which means that there is an emmence amount of words from languages around the world. to prove my point here is a list of words in english with persian origin. (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_English_words_of_Persian_origin) I am not a linguist just a local who is interested in the subject so you shouldn't take my comment seriously

more like livonian is as close to hungarian as much as english to russian

cleandoods! So much cringe-inducing bullshit, LoL

LolPomps Such a ridiculous comment. It’s not Russian and Ukrainian, but they’ve been distant for a while. It’s a fact that Livonian and Hungarian are Finno-Ugric.

Thanks for all this information. That's probably the meaning of my surname. Hope livonians manage to spread their culture.

Balts never come from Pakistan 😂😂😂, they were just diferent from finnic livonians in language, balts are closest germanic relatives, how you say that they come from Pakistan ?you not even have a historical source so shut up !

@@Andrei-ev7du Todey those people who are living in Pakistan are diferent, but many are coming from that region in these days. You are big idiot! Do you know where is Mountain Jānis?

@@Andrei-ev7du germans always were our enemies! They are close to jews and russians love germans more than other neighbours. Iran - Afganistan - Pakistan there are living people who are closer to our blood than germans. Prussians and germans were not the same people.

Kalaamiied, Are you livonian or finnish :)

2 of june 2013 the last native speaker died making the language extinct...

Its a dead language man

in finnish perse means ass, hungarian it means of course

Where are you from, last Livonian native speaker is dead ;(

@@unitedstatesofeu7859 realy?

Livonian is not an Indo-European language, though.

livonians are not native europeans they are originaly asian like every finno ugric language

@Владелец завода mostly true but they do have distant asian ancestry from the urals. They eventually mixed with Scandinavians and Balts.

@@valt8025 They came from Urals, but it doesn't mean they are asian. Sure, they could have some asian in their blood as bitefun2 said. But finno-ugric language isn't part of asian languages, they are on their own. ... and who really are native europeans? Their were already other people and languages before indo-european ones, like one who survived - Basque. Although I don't know if Finno-Ugric people pushed out other ones, like indo-europeans did. ... and and even those first people in europe weren't us, first ones were neanderthals. Sure, not in Baltics and other parts, but still, they were the first europeans.

@@enemy1191 FInno ugrics were originaly asians but they got geneticaly assimilated, finns still have about 10% asian dna left

native-speaker, there are still around 300 people who have learned this language as their second or third language....

You are not informed and nothing knowing dumbass.

1MuchButteR1 Probably a dumb supremacist.

1MuchButteR1 Livonia is estonia+latvia together

@@randomstalker3308Actually only Southern Estonia was part of Livonia. Northern Estonia was Estland.
