Exact thought, came into my mind!!!

I travelled to Myanmar and India when I was younger. Myanmar's culture is heavily influenced by Buddhism. Influence of ancient Indian culture intertwined with local traditions and some Chinese influences can be clearly seen in local architecture and food habits. Various stupas and temples throughout the country bear a distinct resemblance to those in northern India. Like neighbouring Thailand, Theravada Buddhism is the single largest religion.

The British colony of Burma was part of the British run-state in India, the Empire of India, from 1824 to 1937. Burma was separated from the rest of the Indian Empire in 1937, just ten years before India became an independent country, in 1947. Under different circumstances, Burma would have remained a part of India until today, instead of becoming a separate entity in 1937.

@@o.ot.t_5076 Burma was occupied by royal indian army obviously under British command. Not just that we have scripts from the era of emperor Ashoka where refference of Burma is mentioned in his empires revenue collection and constructing dharamshala for Buddhists pilgrims in Burmese provinces is mentioned. British divided Burma from india because in 1930 the government of india act was passed and now indians got some autonomy but one other hand Burma was made a separate colony under British Indian protectorate so that the 1930 government of india act would not be implemented in Burma and hence Burma will be in full control of British. Todays separatist issue in Burma come from that British divid and rule policy where Burma was ruled directly under British monarchy without parliament. You are right Burma was not part of india before the British but both Burma and india share some kind history during the maurayan era.

The one thing I know that is similar between India and Myanmar is "Lungi". Burmese call Lungi as "Longyi".

Rukh (common in nepali for tree,plant rather than saying vrikxa) Taruni or tanderi(common in nepali language for an adult person rather than saying yuwavasta) So nepali is mix of pali and Sanskrit. Bcoz all pali,hindi,urdu,bengali, marathi and many more languages are derived from Mother Sanskrit.

1:35 'cauliflower' ဂေါ်ဖီ (gaw-bi) ➟ गोभी (gobhī) 2:06 'potato' အာလူး (a-lu) ➟ आलू (ālū) Note: Funny enough, the Burmese slang term 'to chat' is a-lu-phot (အာလူးဖုတ်), lit. "bake a potato" 😂 2:32 'first' ပထမ (pa-hta-ma)➟ प्रथम (pratham) Note: The Burmese word is actually from Pāḷi; Burmese ordinals from 1st to 10th are all from Pāḷi (e.g., dutiya, tatiya, etc.) 4:37 'verb' ကြိယာ (kri-ya) ➟ क्रिया (kriyā) Note: Burmese tends to use Sanskrit words for grammatical terms, because a lot of historical linguistics tomes were originally written in Sanskrit 5:20 'wheat' ဂျုံ (gyon) ➟ গম (gôm) Note: The Burmese word is more likely from Bengali, since the Burmese spelling is 'gyum' 7:29 'ocean' သမုဒ္ဒရာ (tha-mok-da-ya) ➟ समुद्र (samudra) Note: The Burmese word is likely blended with Pāḷi samudda, because the Burmese spelling is 'samuddara.' The 's' sound in Sanskrit/Pāḷi is now a soft 'th' (/θ/) sound in Burmese (a similar linguistics development occurred in Spanish, look up 'seseo') 8:41 'example' နမူနာ (na-mu-na) ➟ नमूना (namūnā) 9:38 'money' ပိုက်ဆံ (paik-san) ➟ पैसा (paisā) 10:00 'appearance' ရူပ (yu-pa) ➟ रूप (rūpa) Note: The Burmese word is from Pāḷi; the doublet ရုပ် (spelt 'rup') means 'face' in Burmese 11:04 'wisdom' ဝိဇ္ဇာ (weik-za) ➟ विद्या (vidyā) Note: The Burmese word is from Pāḷi vijjā; the 'v' and 'j' sounds in Sanskrit/Pali are respectively pronounced 'w' and 'z' in Burmese 14:33 'death' မရဏ (ma-ra-na) ➟ मरण (maraṇa) 15:44 'machine' ယန္တရား (yan-da-ya) ➟ Sanskrit यन्त्र (yantra) 16:06 'song' ဂီတ (gi-ta) ➟ गीत (gīta) Note: Burmese classical music is called မဟာဂီတ (Mahāgīta), lit. 'great music' 17:05 'planet' ဂြိုဟ် (gyo) ➟ ग्रह (graha) Note: The Burmese spelling is gruih; 'gr' in Burmese is pronounced 'j' 19:25 'almond' ဗာဒံ (ba-dan) ➟ बादाम (bādām) 23:15 'Hanuman' ဟနုမာန် (ha-nu-man) ➟ हनुमान् (hanumān) Great segment on the influence of Indic languages in Burmese! Really demonstrates how Burma's time as part of British India lives on in our language. Note: It's important to note though that most Burmese Indic loanwords come from Pāḷi (Sanskrit ➟ Pāḷi ➟ Burmese), due to the influence of Theravada Buddhism. Bonus callouts: 'example' - Kenneth called out ဥပမာ (u-ba-ma), which we commonly use in the context of "for example," and comes from Pāḷi upamā 'youth' - The Hindi speaker also mentioned a connection to 'youth.' The Burmese literary term for 'youth' is ယုဝ (yu-wa), from Pāḷi yuva 'earth' - The Burmese word for 'earth' or 'geography' is ပထဝီ (pa-hta-wi), from Pāḷi pathāvī, inherited from Sanskrit पृथ्वी (pṛthvī) 'one' - The literary Burmese word for 'one' is ဧက (e-ka) 'god' - Kenneth called out ဘုရား (pha-ya), which ultimately comes from Sanskrit वर (vará) or ' preeminent' 'deity' - ဒေဝ (de-wa) ➟ देव (dev)

Excellent exercise as always! 😊 It's very interesting that some words were exactly the same in both languages, while in others there was a consonant shift.

This is so cool. I have been learning Burmese for the past few years and just recently considered Hindi. I love these expected connections between languages.

George script?????

So the takeaway top changes from Hindi(rather Sanskrit) to Burmese are... 1. the 'ga/ग' sound becomes a 'ja/ज' sound. 2. the 'ra/र' sound mostly gets omitted or becomes one regular vowel sound. 3. M/म consonant sound at the end of a word becomes a vowel type nasal sound in Burmese. 4. And also the 'Ha/ह' sounds gets omitted as well. Do you guys notice that...

This is was a great video. However, It would be also interesting to learn the similarities between Manipuri (or one of the languages from neighbouring Indian state) and Burmese.

yes, comparison of languages from even more closer families will be amazing. Something like meitei-burmese,,,khasi-khmer.

Thank you for this video. As a native burmese, it is interesting to learn that most of the vocabularies of the two languages are alike. In my opinion, I reckon it's because many vocabularies from Burmese and Hindi are based on the Sanskrit or Pali. Thanks a million for this video.

Love such videos that bring ppl together trying to see similarities rather than differentiating. May this world find more reasons to be one, than divided.

I enjoyed it so much. Thanks a lot Bahador! 😊

We have so much similarities because till 1937 Burma was part of India . My Great grand father was doing business in Rangoon( Yangon) , When it became separate country he left everything behind and came to Gujarat (India) at our native place .

The sentence segment is great especially. Love all your videos.

Oh my God..!!! Such a Wonderful, Fantastic video.... Very Very Entertaining & Knowledge video👌🙏

Thank you for making this video, it was fun to watch and so delighted to know how relatable we are. Fun fact is we are more closer than "potatoe" and "potaytoe". Here are a few words, such as samusa, prata, naanbya, etc.

Wao amazing how they guessed different words like pahtama and jiyone. Such an interesting video.

Don't know how I have arrived on this channel, it's fun, it's knowledgeable, it's addictive. Subscribed immediately.

This was really interesting. I have heard both language and I always thought both has more similarities than differences

@Son of Bharat in malay, 'merana' does not exactly means death..but it can means like suffer..suffer, which means to endure death or pain...so that's how we use the word 'merana'...but i'm trying to say is that, we also use 'merana' in malay but in different context

@Time Machine that is false on all levels. the oldest language is the pre-babel language, which is no longer spoken by humans on earth and is 100% unrelated to any living or even attested human language on earth today. sanskrit is just another offspring of PIE and is on equal level with european languages. PIE isnt "fake", but reconstructed. that means we arent 100% sure what it was like, not that it is a complete lie. all the evidence points to there being an actual ancestor to all Indo-European languages, but it couldnt have been the form of sanskrit that we know today.

The reason there's sound differences (like no "r" but an "a" sound at the end-Pahtama/Pratham as an example) is because those words are loanwords from Prakrit(later Pali) and Sanskrit rather than Hindi per se. Really enjoyed the video :)

Kenneth has very soothing voice it's sounds like recorded audio

Ramayana is so popular in Asia, that it may be the most popular religious epic in Asia.

The video is as always awesome at the same comment section is also very interesting where people share about their language. 😀😀

One of the most niche and interesting channels on KZread. Definitely a food for the curious ones.

Burmese Pahtama..in Malay/Indonesian...we say..Pertama(First) Hindi Samudra...we say Samudera(Ocean) Burmese Yupa...we say Rupa same meaning and spelling as in Sanskrit. It's amazing to know we're all connected in our languages

This means that almost every Southeast Asian country shares some cultural and linguistic similarities with India. Wow🔥🔥

I enjoyed this very much. I also recognised a a couple of word but did not guess them at first. One of them was badam (which could be originally one of these Persian or Turkish or Hindi or Burmese or even from another language!) Amazing!

Kenneth's voice is soo good, he should work as a voice actor... It would be soo cool! 🙂

I’ve studied a little Sanskrit and was happy I recognized a few words.

Loved the video bahador 👍👍

Awesome compare hindi and Burmese love this video . very close word similar word two different languages . Share knowledge share culture love it

It's funny that, I have been watching your videos since long and only today got to know that you are from Iran and not India. After watching this video kzread.info/dash/bejne/goN8ucZqg5DAh5M.html. Still you are doing great job. One request though, if you could find any mention of India before Islamic invasion of Persia in your old Books. We find some mentions of Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan etc. in our old Books and stories from our elders. If yes how it is depicted. If you want you can start separate series like the language series.

This is actually fun to watch!!

Wow! Kenneth has such a soothing voice.

06:43 there is a Hindi word called "Jau" for barley and it is very similar to "jyone"(wheat)

Hello Bahador Alast, I've been requesting you from a long time, Please try to do a video on Sanskrit Vs Dravidian Languages(especially Kannada, Telugu and Malayalam) so as to understand how much both the language families influenced each other because of their co-existence in Indian Sub Continent.

Very interesting Bahadour bhai

We are connected from ancient times. Buddhas first met two Burmese travellers Trapasu and Bahalika after enlightenment and they offered him rice balls and honey.

Amazing video. Please do a Persian and sinhala similarities.❤🙏

Bahodor you have done an excellent work its for me like meeting with the roots

I have learnt a lot from Kenneth won... Especially Burmese English lessons...

this is super interesting cos im burmese/bamar but was born n grew up in new delhi, but then at 5 I moved to Australia, so i always thought burmese n hindi as a baby were same lg cos they used so many similar words n culture wise, there similar things such as the food too

I think we can pick out another 2 words from "prithivi ek grah hai" too, Prithivi may be "Pa-Hta-Wi" in Burmese (meaning the ground) and ek is e-ka.

Excellent program!

Thai is my second language and I've learnt The Burmese abugeda as part of a very cursory introduction to Burmese language, so this was fascinating to recognise several words that have cognates in Thai.
