Yes, please do the Fujianese (or Hokkienese or some other say "Taiwanese"), that is what I was trying to convince Mr. Bahador as well since 3 to 4 years ago. 😅 Not only many Hokkian words sound close to Korean & Japanese words, the words from Hokkian language ultimately have many impact to the vocabs in Indonesian, Malaysian and Tagalog as well. There are another videos from 3 to 4 years ago from Bahador's about comparing Chinese vs Tagalog and Chinese vs Indonesian, but the Chinese in those videos compared were either Mandarin or Cantonese, not the Hokkianese which why the Tagalog & Indonesian interpreter found many difficulties to understand the meaning of Chinese words. I am pretty sure if it was Hokkianese, the Tagalog & Indonesian there would found them much easier to understand than other Chinese dialects.

Hello Bahador! Are you planning on doing languages from Africa much more often? There are very little videos on African languages apart from Semitic

Bahador💙🔥

there are also chinese loan words in korean that were borrowed so long ago that are no longer considered Chinese loan words /sino-korean words (한자어) anymore. for example, 바람 (param, meaning wind) was borrowed from the old Chinese word 风 (*plum), so was the verb 불다 (pul-da, meaning to blow).

I start learning Korean and Chinese at the same time and I think my ears are better hearing Chinese cause i already understand them better! I don't know why! It's a puzzle 😊

Except for the Chinese character loan words, there is hardly any similarities between Chinese and Korean. Unlike Chinese which is an isolating language, Korean is an agglutinative language, so its grammar structure is completely different. The pronuciations are totally different. That's why the Koreans are having really hard times to learn Chinese.

I think it is not really, even the huge number of these words being compared were even originally from Japanese Meiji era in the end of 19th CE to early 20th CE when Western European influences spreaded to the east, and it is Japanese empire to spread the terminologies and vocabs to the neighboring that historically literated in Han characters, including Viet Nam. So it is not really the case of language family. If you added Vietnamese and Cantonese, it would be more complicated, as Vietnamese is compared to Mon-Khmer by many linguists much more than Cantonese, although Cantonese & VietNamese may sound similar to each other, but Vietnamese is not even includes as Sino-Tibetan by major linguistics nowadays. 😅

I've been studying Korean and I have to say transliterating is not easy, sometimes I read the transliterations and I am confused because it sounds like something else when I hear it.

Except for the word King, all the other words in the video are loan words from Japanese. Japan opened to the West first in Asia (the Meiji Restoration). A significant amount of Western. concepts (scientific, political etc.) were translated into Japanese, but using Chinese characters, as they were the written scripts in used China, Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. . These Japanese translations then were loaned back to the other cultures that used Chinese scripts. Koreans switched to a phonetic script in the 19th century. During the French colonization, Vietnam switched to Latin scripts. However, Japan still uses a large number of Chinese characters, and modern Chinese contains a significant amount of Japanese loan words. A Chinese and a Japanese can communicate quite a bit if they write everything down in Chinese characters. More or less after WW II, Japan started to translate western words phonetically. They are no longer intelligible by the Chinese. The word "King" is an old Chinese word. The Koreans borrowed it from China directly, as China was the dominate state in that area for a long time..
