Similarities Between Polish and Russian 

As mentioned in the video, definitely check out Norbert's channel for more interesting videos covering a wide range of languages: ru-vid.com If you have any suggestions, follow and message me on Instagram instagram.com/bahadoralast/

Thank you for inviting me to the show! It's been a great pleasure and a lot of fun!! 🙏🏼

I'm a simple person - I see Norbert, I click

I thought this was an Ecolinguist video for a second.

I'm from Serbia, and I understand both😁🇷🇸🇷🇺🇵🇱❤

The guy from Moscow was no way any competition to Norbert, of course. I am Russian, I've never had any experience with Polish, but I've understood every word Norbert has said. It would be great if you chose for this very interesting format two people with equal wit and language feeling)))

I'm a simple Slav.I see Norbert,I click like

Какой же Норберт классный! Приятно смотреть и слушать

I had a feeling that my fellow russian guy is actually a giant alien bug (like from men in black) pretending to understand human speech

I guess the Russian fella had enough of the lockdown.

Парень из Москвы по-русски понимает хуже чем по-английски. :))))

Polish guy: -I put the shovel in the basement Russian guy: - you broke the beer bottle with the shovel Me:👁👄👁

In the Greek language we have the word "δομώ" (domo) which is the verb form of "to build" and of course other forms of it like "δομή" (domi - noun for "structure"), "δομικός" (domikos -adjective for "structural") etc. The verb form is not used as frequently as the rest forms though nowadays.

You should do a collaboration with Paul from Langfocus. I think he's also Canadian.

Awesome!! Been waiting for this!!

Interesting as always, although when I saw the title I was hoping that all the Russian words which would confuse Norbert as a Polish speaker would be applied. The most common are: -запомнить, which means to remember, but in Polish "zapomnieć" means to forget -зажигать, to be warming or lighting up something, sounds like the Polish slang verb "zarzygać" which means to vomit over something -гордиться (кем чем?), which means to be proud of, sounds like the Polish verb - "gardzić (kim czym?) which has an exactly opposite meaning, "to despise" -дворец, "palace", but Polish "dworzec" is a station (e.g. train station) Or vice versa, Polish "pytać" meaning to ask, in Russian "пытать" meaning to torture :D That would be simply more hillarious to see Norbert's reaction. Anyways, keep it up ;)

I'm russian and I understood 80-90% Norbert's speech, I think George is a weird guy, lol. It was easy.

Wow, my two favorite language channels combined. Interesting!

Watched with a smile on my face, thanks to you and your guests Bahador.

We need another Polish and Russian video

George looks exactly like someone who'd rush B every round

I am glad that you and Norbert finally get together into this. Both of you are awesome 🎉

Very nice, Bahador. I watch Norbert's videos very often and pick up more Polish that way.

I like George, he's funny.

Super. Watching right now :D thank you Bahador

What I love about their two channels is the Norbert tends to focus on Slavic languages, while Bahador does a lot of Middle Eastern languages!

Mr. Bridge International, this was an amazing video. Norbert is such a talented guy and his channel is awesome. I really enjoyed the vid a lot! Greetings to the three of you. Be happy!

two of my favourite youtubers together!!!! greetings from Argentina Bahador & Norbert!

Really nice video, I enjoyed watching this:)

My home = Moj dom Green apple = zelena jabuka Clear sky = čisto nebo Where is the bakery ? = Gdje je pekara ? I put the shovel in the bassement = Stavio sam lopatu u podrum . ( Pivnica means something like an alehouse in Croatian ) I was cleaning = Ja sam čistio . Stay at home = Ostani doma This morning I woke up before my alarm clock went of. = Ovo jutro probudio sam se prije nego je zazvonila moja budilica. I wasn't able to go back to sleep so I felt tired at work = Nisam mogao ponovno usnuti pa sam se osjećao umorno na poslu.

Norbert is the man ! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I’ve been waiting for this. Awesome video . It’s great that you added Bahador to one of your videos. George is kinda funny , looks a bit too happy ))) I guess he was nervous . About nebo in Russian , it’s the same word, same spelling but when it’s read it’s pronounced as neba, it’s not plural . Plural form for nebo is nebesa .

Such a nice video, really lovely people, thank you!

I really like this collaboration, I would have never expected it 👍

I just love language comparison videos!! Keep them coming, and if you ever need a Bulgarian speaker lemme know 👀

Really cool to see this! I had some classmates from Poland before and now having some colleagues from Russia, somehow, anytime I hear Russian colleagues speak Russian it reminds of my classmates speaking Polish. Now I understand why I feel so haha. Also, I somehow have some hallucination that I hear some words similar with Persian that I may understand every time they speak :)))))

Oh wow, two of my favorite youtubers in one video )) For a moment I was confused cause at first I saw Norbert and then someone looking very much like Bahador ) But then I saw whose channel it was ))

When RU-vid Bubbles collide...

Apologies Bahador. Thought it was Norbert's channel. Thank you, good job

the word "tame" derives from the same root as "dom". It originally meant "domesticated".

Hey Bahador As you know podcasts have been a big hit in the past few years, and it may be something you should consider for your channel as well. There are podcasts about various different subjects, and yours could simply be about culture or people's background in general. Prepare a set of questions that makes you curious about an individual or their country and talk to them about it. I'm hoping to get started on a channel as well soon, and I wish to get into podcasting, seems fun.

Croatian is similar: moj dom zelena jabuka čisto nebo gdje (je) pekara stavljam(vozim) lopate u(do) podrum(pivnice) ja (sam) cistim(o) ostani doma - on the card I understood some of the words in the sentences...

Some examples of "dom" in French: domicile (home) dôme (dome) dompter (to tame) domestique (domestic) domestiquer (to domesticate) Does the Latin word "dominus" share the same root as the other "dom" words?

In Polish: "Ktoś pukal do drzwi. Poszedlem otworzyć, ale już nikogo nie było. Zostawili tylko kartkę z wiadomością". In Russian (Polish Latin): "Kto-to postuczal w dwer'. Poszel otworit', no uż(e) nikogo ne bylo. Ostawili tol'ko zapisku s soobszczeniem". "Przebudzenie" is "probużdenie" in Russian. "Ale" as "but" was used in Russian a long time ago, now "no" is used. There also was "ali" as "or", now it's transformed into 'ili". The verb "stuczal" is from noun "stuk". "Stuczal" is Simple, "postuchal" is Perfect. "Wiadomość" - "Wedomost'" in Russian is used as "message" not for any message, but some types of official messages. In Russia newspapers are often named "Wedomosti". From the word "wedat'".😀 "Kartka" sounds like a small card in Russian - "kartoczka". It's usually used as: a visit card, a bank card,... Not so long time ago "kartoczka" was used in the mwaning of a "postcard". "Puk-puk" in Russian is "tuk-tuk". I see he was a bit disoriented because "rz" in Polish is pronounced as [zh], when in similar Russian words there is simple "r".

Polish and Russian are indeed very similar! I can speak Russian well and Polish is really easy to understand for me!

Ohhh, I didn't expect this collaboration

I enjoy Norbert’s channel too.

Bahador in his eighteen years again, without the beard haha

Serbian : Dom (home), domaći (domestic), domaćinstvo (household), domaći zadatak (homework), domaćica (housewife), odomaćiti se (to feel like home after a while), there is much more. There is one interesting thing about dom and kuća, kuća meaning house, but, in Croatia and in the Southern part of Montenegro you would say - idem doma (I go home), in Serbia and in Bosnia ıt would be - idem kući, but, oddly, housewife is kućanica in Croatian, but domaćica in Serbian. Kuća has the same root as kutija (box) which cames from Turkish and maybe (Bahador ?) from Persian. Besides that, imagine how delighted I was to watch this video, as besides my native language(s), Russian and Polish are the two Slavic languages that I speak, and all that on Bahador's channel, the first one of the kind that I discovered. Thank you, guys, this was a real pleasure.

Bahador now that you are using online meet-ups, you could probably try to feature Bulgarian finally? Perhaps Slovak versus Bulgarian? 😍 Or finally feature Slovenian? and make Slovak versus Slovenian? Some people's minds would have been blown away 😂 that would be an instant clickbait - wait, those are not the same language?! btw congrats to your newborn baby son 👶

Came for Norbert, stayed for the Slavic languages :) George was so cute! Thanks for hosting this

Polish guy: knocking on the door Russian guy: who farted?

It's great that in video about Polish and Russian Norbert just talks about indoeuropean cognates xd. Nice one!

Its not mój dom in russisn but moj dom. Not muj but mOj

In russian "basement" isnt connected with word pivo so this is why it was so confusing for George i guess

Bardzo ciekawy film o Polskim i Rosyjskim języku . Dziękuję Very intressting film about the Polish and Russian language. Thanks

Bahador, Norbert, Maha and Paul. I think I've watched a million hours of those guys

As a German, I would have thought Polish and Russian to be MUCH closer to each other. Really interesting, thank you guys!

It'd be really cool if you did a video with langfocus on Assyrian

Wherever Norbert goes, his fans follow! Cheers!

Domo (dome), domicílio (residence), doméstico (domestic) in Portuguese

I had a challenging experience, thanks Bahador. Before you guys judge me and get picky. Russian IS my indeed a native language plus my parents are from Russia and I was born here so I did not know English until I lived in the US for 2 years to study, the look of my face is not I am having a bad experience I mean I am just controlling my emotions. When I said Georgy, it means "Георгий" and I preferred to choose George so it’s understandable. When I saw a comment "Polish is hard to understand" I totally agree, if Norbert gave me easy sentences I would have gotten it and not the hard long sentences. I didn’t know the English word at first until I heard awakening (yes some Russians do suck at English). I decided to participate because why not and to challenge myself, if I had my mom or my friend with me or participate with easy Slavic language I would have fun experience. The stuff you see in the video was my mom brought it during lockdown.

какой же кринж когда этот чел долго отвечает на вопросы

😍interesting

Wow Norbert is here

"Domicile" is "home" en français!

if you need an average russian native let me know 😏 really love those videos, it's interesting to see how all the languages are connected in some way

Hi (thanks for my good engrish) I saw Norbert's new movie and I was surprised that the subscription was withdrawn. But I was wrong, because it's a different, similar channel.xD But I will also subscribe and of course 👍

The right guy sounds so exited and confident

Hey yo, Norbert! Good to see ya here 😂

The Russian guy is a bit "disconnected". As a Russian I've understood almost all the polish examples. The languages are really close to each other.

I know you’re getting overwhelmed with collab requests Bahador, but superholly would be great!

I'm trying to learn Polish.

Russian guy seems a bit "different". I think it would be fair to invite a guy with some understanding of his language.

I'm Russian and I understood everything in polish. I think some Russians don't understand polish because of the endings of words and aren't be able to find the common roots of words Nirbert pronounces

Ecolinguist!!

Где вы таких русских находите? Стыдно даже, не смог досмотреть. Польский так похож на русский, особенно когда Норберт говорил медленно и по словам. Вопрос к Жоре, русский язык родной для тебя?

Adore the fact you managet to get Norbert upon this video,

Interesting video :-) Although in Italian we say "casa" for "house", back when we spoke Latin it used to be "domus", so Latin had the same Indo-European root as Russian and Polish and with the same meaning exactly. Although I am not sure the English "dome" and "domestic" come directly from Indo-European... Latin "d" should correspond to Germanic "t", right? So maybe they are borrowings from French.

Ooo hay Norbat!!

Domus in latin means house, this is the origin of many words used in romance languages and that later entered English like domestic or domicile.

Well maybe it harder to do it online... but i got the story about the knocking on the door in polish quite easily, perhaps also written text helps. The book name I get also easily, quite same word in russian.

😮so similar, very interesting 😀

This russian dude rlly doesn't believe in breaking eye contact nor smiling

“I’ve been looking forward to this.” Count Dooku

Русский парень странный какой-то...русский точно его родной язык?! Норберт супер как всегда!👍

Greetings to Polish and Iranian brothers Norbert and Bahador from Russia! 👍 In Russian "nebesa" (heaven) is plural, with a bit "biblical flavor". Nebo - it is single.

A very ambitious crossover I didnt anticipate tbh xD

From Turkey Love you😘🤗🌟❣🌟❣Kanalınızı çok seviyorum,Çok güzel ve bilgilendirici bir yayındı Teşekkürler🌟

Spasibo. very intesting

Woke up in 6.30 in the morning and saw this.

(2:00) I think the 'dom' in english came from latim because in portuguese we have 'domicílio' (place where you live); 'doméstica' (maid that work in your house); 'domesticado' (animal that live near the house); 'domo' (superior part of a building in spherical shape), maybe related to the form of ancient houses??

Ecolinguist channel is good Bahador's channel is also good What would happen if they cooperate in a video?

I understand everything. ^_^ Greetings from Poland.

In Sardinian, the word for house is domo. I believe it comes from Latin, but other Romance Languages don’t really use this word.

My fellow countryman George made my day 🤣

We have the word "pivniță" in Romanian but I never thought it has any connection with beer

You should've had "Микитко Сын Алексеев / Mikitko Syn Alekseev" come on the show for the Russian part, alongside someone like Norbert in Polish, because they would be more equally matched. George was lacking in Russian, so it would've been nicer to see a more advanced linguistic comparison.

In Sardinian 'house' is 'domu' from Latin 'domus' 😉

Got inspired so here are some words in Serbian (Serbo-Croatian?) with their primary (most commonly used) meanings and usage notes (this means I'm not listing the more obscure or literary/poetic meanings, so feel free to contribute in the comments below): "vedar" - clear (about the sky or about a sunny day or sunny weather); optimistic (about a person) "čist" - clean, neat (about the space built for use by people or about personal hygiene); pure (spiritual) --> the noun for cleanliness, neatness is "čistoća"; the noun for purity is "čistota" (although people may use "čistoća" in this sense 🤫) "jasan" - clear, obvious, that can be understood (for concepts, statements, language) --> "jasno ko dan" - clear as a day (idiom implying that something is/should be perfectly understandable, although the use of "jasan" here is tied to the older, literary meaning of "jasan" as sunny (with clear skies), where nowadays we would typically say "vedar" to describe a day with clear skies). "bistar" - clear, not cloudy, not turbid (usually about liquids, used not to emphasize transparency, but the lack of turbidity); bright (for witty people, quick thinkers; yep, there's the connection with the meaning in Russian ☺) "providan" - clear, transparent, that allows to see through (usually about materials, or about liquids when used in the sense of transparent, cf. "bistar" above) "prozračan" - bright, that allows light into (about the space built for use by people); that allows light through, translucent, light in weight (about textile, when referring to light and slightly see-through materials)
