    What is interesting is the fact that in Hindi (India) "wisdom" sounds like "vedi" which corresponds with Slavonic "vedat'" that means "to know". 😀

    "Vedi" and the slavic word "vedat" have the same origin. Also like "Buddha" and the Slavic word "buditi" - to wake up or "budil'nik" - alarm clock! Buddha means awakened!

    Luna się nie mówi, chyba tylko w jakimś starym literackim języku. Po słowacku też mówimy tylko mesiac, tak samo w Czechach nie używa się w ogóle słowa luna. Ciekawe jest jednak, że u nas mesiac oznacza nie tylko miesiąc w kalendarzu ale i księżyc. Słowo księżyc czy inne do niego podobne u nas nie istnieje, chociaż większość ludzi wie o co chodzi.

    Znaczy tylko 'księżyc' jest dobrym tłumaczeniem do 'moon', bo tam było po Angielsku 'moon' a nie 'montg'. Zdziwiło mnie, że tam 'miesiąc' było napisane.

    @@catkittycatcatkittycatcat3227 powinno tak naprawdę być napisane zarówno "month", jak i "moon", bo prasłowiańskie *měsęcь oznaczało zarówno miesiąc, jak i księżyc. I w sumie to w większości języków słowiańskich oba znaczenia w tym słowie się zachowały. Nie zachowało się to np. właśnie w polskim, aczkolwiek niegdyś w tym języku słowo "miesiąc" także oznaczało "księżyc", a do dziś w polskich gwarach i podobno w literaturze się tego znaczenia używa. Co ciekawe to angielskie "month" i "moon" są kognatami (słowami, które są spokrewnione) i pochodzą one od praindoeuropejskiego (jest to język, od którego pochodzi większość języków w Europie oraz takie języki jak perski w Iranie czy hindi w Indiach) słowa *méh₁n̥s, co oznaczało księżyc i miesiąc (od tego słowa też pochodzi prasłowiańskie *měsęcь), tylko że w pragermańskim od tego słowa powstały 2 inne: *mēnô (księżyc - od niego pochodzi angielskie "moon", niemieckie "Mond", duńskie, szwedzkie i norweskie "måne", itd) oraz *mēnōþs (miesiąc - od niego pochodzi angielskie "month", niemieckie "Monat", norweskie i szwedzkie "månad" czy duńskie "måned", itd)

    Most roots are of obvious Aryan origin, I can immediately see the connection (simply the slavic versions of original words). Other words like gvezda, dozhd or medved are synonims or combinations of Aryan words instead of typical hehster, nebhros, arktos. This, if grammar wouldn't be enough, attest the very clear "indo european" character of Slavic languages

    Nice film. I didn't know that Kashubian is a tonal language. But, in Proto-Slavic words there is used a wrong transcription. ,,N" with haček is used for transcription of the word meaning ,,fire", which correlates to the soft n, not n + soft yer, which would be correct. And ,,ř" is associated to a slide between ,,r" and ,,ž" (which was created from a cluster r + soft yer in West Slavic langs), not r + soft yer, used in transcription of the word meaning ,,sea".

    @@superbrainil I think the main reason is that people believe (I guess even in Poland!) that Mazovian can't be really different from standard Polish because Masovia region is currently the most important area in Poland and the capital city is located in the heart of Mazovia. There's the clue. Poles and others suppose that Polish is even based on Mazvian dialect LOL. I can expend this topic if you want me to, but it's not the right place to do it.

    Nice video! But can you explain why is on the westside, northside and little of southside at borders of the Czech Republic different weak color tone? This makes it seem as if some other language is spoken in this area by a different minority (like for example Hungarians on the south of Slovakia) but there is spoken standart Czech by Czechs like everywhere else in Czechia. Sudeten Germans are not already here for a long time if you meant this and German is also not spoken here for a long time. Of course, there are many dialects here, like in every different areas, but it is still purely Czech.

    You depict the German Baltic islands as still speaking slavic (purple). Obviously this should refer to the pomeranian language, which should then be included here too. Besides this the map is pretty bad. it shows areas where the languages were spoken, but are not anymore (Germany, Belarus, Romania - but then you forgot that east of the Odra, East Sorbian was spoken until the Sorbs were expelled by their slavic "brothers" in 1945 , whereas areas where the language is completely spoken are depicted as mixed zones (Sudetenland). Extinguished west slavic languages such as Masurian or Pomeranian are not shown.

    The original map had Pomeranian and I removed it, but now it seems I forgot to remove it from these islands. I removed it because it's extinct, as you later mentioned, and I only included the living languages.
