From what I gathered by hanging out with a bunch of German friends who studied at Maastricht University in the Netherlands, it was very easy for them to understand Dutch after a very short time while living in the country and facing written and spoken Dutch every day. They said having German as their first and English as their second language was key. I might add they were all from around Köln so maybe proximity helped a little too... Awesome video idea nonetheless.

I am a native English speaker just starting Polish lessons and was surprised that I understood more of the Slovak than the Polish! There was something about the Slovak consonants and the spacing between words that made it sound more "American" and helped me to pick out words easier.

Im German but I speak polish. Never thought I would understand so much Slovakian 😅

Pronunciation in Slovak is almost the simplest thing in the world, you just have to know 2 things, first is Slovak alphabet and how letters are pronounced and second is, after you learn alphabet the rule is write as you hear/ read as it's written, so basically every single letter has its own voice that doesn't change and you just combine those sounds of each letter to make word and words combine to sentences etc. But that's all that is easy about Slovak language.

I am from Czech Republic (Moravia) and of course Slovak is like my second native tongue, but now I can say that Polish is very close too. It has different accent and sounds a bit like rustling paper, but words are very very similar and generally I haven't problems to understand. Greetings to Slovaks, Poles and Czechs!

Keď si pozriete rozlohu štátov tak Holandsko má menšu rozlohu štátu o 8 tisíc kilometrov než Slovensko ale obyvatelov majú tri krát viac 17 milionov... Možno je to tým že vyrúbali lesy kôli pestovanu tulipanov alebo maju menj hôr. ...Podobne Taliansko má 60 milionov ludí na 300 tisíc kilometrov. Dánsko má asi tolko kilometrov čo Holandsko a tiež majú 5,8 miliona obyvytelov.

Im Polish and i can understand 80-90% of Slovak, and maybe 50% Czech. Its weird, cause for Slovak people Czech language is so easy to understand. For Poles - not really. Dziwne, że Czeski i Słowacki są niby tak podobne do siebie (przynajmniej dla nich), a mimo to zrozumieć Czecha jest nieporównywalnie ciężej niż Słowaka.

Мой родной язык - русский. На 90 % понятны оба языка. И словацкий оказался легче в понимании по написанию и на слух. Польский - немного сложнее, но можно понять некоторые слова и подогнать по смыслу. Всё отгадала ! Это интересно! Благодарю, Норберт!

Yes that's true. Probably because Slovak has the least amount of loanwords from non-Slavic languages because Slovaks were pretty isolated for 1000 years in the carpathian mountains. Polish for example has a ton of loanwords mainly from Latin and german languages while Slovak uses original words from Proto-Slavic.

Slovak is actually incredibly close to Croatian. It almost sounds like the same language spoken in two different dialects.

Dziękuję bardzo za możliwość posłuchać różne jenzyki słowiańskie! Jestem białorusinem, ale dobrze znam język polski. W Słowacji byłem tylko jeden raz, w 1995 roku. Wtedy myslałem, że język słowacki jest bardzo podobny na język polski i na język białoruski. I tak, jest coś podobnego z jenzykem rossyjskim. Zaraz mnie było wszystko zrozumiało z jenzyku słowackego. I to mi bardzo się podobało!

I am Slovak from Bratislava, but my grandparents were Czechs living in Ostrava - close to Czech - Polish borders. I think that polish language was very good understandable for people from that region, they watched polish TV and spoke a dialect using a lot of polish words. As a child, I spent a lot of time at my grandaparents and thats why polish language is quite good understandable to me as well. I think, that crucial is to learn words which are completely different and words which are the same, but have different meaning.

Slovak is indeed the easiest to understand by other Slavic languages. I guess Its vocabulary has the highest % of words in common with the others, i.e. few words whose meaning drifted away over time
