I'm proud of Ania defending our Polish "Truskawka" 😂🥰

Well, map in Polish is 'mapa', but 'karta' is also a synonym that is no longer used today. However the science of creating maps in Polish is... Kartografia!

[dmytrodanilov]

Ukrainians also say "mapa" (мапа). Not only "karta" (карта).

I prefer to say "mapa" to avoid meaning complications. Because "karta" (or "kartka" (картка)) also means "a playing card", "a bonus card", "a SIM-card" and "a credit card". But "mapa" is only "a map".

From Ukrainian jagoda (ягода) it's a berry, any berry.
This Ukrainian girl is so shy. She almost doesn't speak

˝Karta˝ and ˝Mapa˝ are not words with Slavic roots, they came from other languages. Slovenian ˝Zemljevid˝ is of Slavic root, combining words ˝Zemlja˝ and ˝Vid˝, so anyone speaking a Slavic language even if not knowing what it means at first could understand why that word is used when he learn what its stand for. Greetings from Serbia!

You should take somebody from Czech republic it would be very funny with Poland :D

[ISupportGenoZidrusni]

Also, in ukrainian we have word "Ягода", sounds like "jagoda", but its like hypernym for many things like strawberries, cherry, tomato, grape, blueberry, etc. All of them are "ягоди"

[vmakohonchuk]

"yahoda" in Ukrainian is for berry. I mean all berries. "polunytsia" - strawberry, "ozhyna" - blackberry, "chornytsia" - blueberry, "lokhyna" - slightly different "blueberry", "zhuravlyna" - "cranberry" (yes, zhuravel is for crane), "sunytsia" - fragaria (small strawberry), "malyna" - raspberry.
Both "mapa" and "karta" are for map, but "kartka" is for card, except of playing card - in this case we use "karta" as well.
It depends do we use "lid" or "kryha" for ice. "kryha" is used when you want to emphasise it is very cold, e.g. "kryzhanyi" - is ice cold adjective. We use "lid" only for ice from frige or ice on a skating pitch. For any other ice we can apply both words.

All Slavic languages are uniquely beautiful!

As a polish I find "morski pes" totally funny and cute 😂❤

[mosful]

Respect to Slovenian ˝Zemljevid˝ - it describes the meaning of the map- Zemlje -Earth, Vid - view.

[kataseiko]

8:32 "We take from everything and mix it and make it harder" - made me laugh hard.

[edmundtheironside]

It is extremely confusing why Draga is so surprised by the term ''morski pes'', because we also say ''morski pas'' in Serbian. Also, the term ''mapa'' is very common in Serbian.

[radule]

Slovenian girl: morski pes
Serbian girl: ...its different in Serbia...

Also Serbia: morski pas

[minnke]

Zemljevid makes perfect sense to me as a Serbian. I understand the literal meaning "to see Earth/ground/country".

[pinkeypromises]

I love that because of knowing the root words, I as a Ukrainian can understand that zemlevid means "to see land", so I my brain makes sense of it and feels happy because brains looove to see connections :)

Don't stop the videos with the slavic team right now, they are so beautiful, likable and interesting to watch, just like the video with members from Latin Countries, even though i'm from a slavic country, ah and Shannon too, she is great

[MaCherie]

The Serbian girl is clearly unfamiliar with it, but we do also say "morski pas" (water dog) for shark. Ajkula is the most common, but in the scientific community or like school books you can also see morski pas.

[lauraklaric]

It's so nice to see Slovenian in these videos too =) we so small we usually forgotten <3

Slavic girls are best girls (I married a Russian girl 24 years ago, best decision of my life)
