Slovaks, Slovenes and Macedonians: hey?!??

Cool info. I've recently been brushing up on geography, and I will soon dive into European history. This is an interesting find

[yvs]

even the branches aren't set in stone. i(a Slovene) find Slovak to be only slightly less intelligeble than Macedonian and slightly more inteligelbe than Bulgarian. meanwhile, Serbo-Croatian can either be perfectly understandable or take a bit of effort depending on which part of the dialect continioum the other person falls. i find that my understanding of CZ has gone up somewhat with expsure(but no formal attempts at study) but as far as Polish is concerned, i have a hard time understanding it.

I’ve been absolutely loving your videos lately!! Please don’t stop making them 😊they’re so interesting and such great little bites of info. If you’d ever like to do a deep dive in a longer format, I’m sure it would be interesting 🤔

The frame got so boarded, fell asleep 😂😂😂

you mispronounced Belarusian, its not belaroosian its pronounced Bela-russian (white rus)
you also forgot slovak in central slavic
also you arent entirely right, as a russian speaker you can understand polish if it you read it and or hear it spoken slowly, most of all slavic words share the same roots with some words being of complete different origin, also belarusian and ukranian can understand polish and czech and slovak with about 60-70% proficiency
and geographic borders arent real with our languages because a Belarusian and ukranian (eastern slavic) can understand polish (centeal slavic) meanwhile a serbian (southern slavic) wont understand slovenian (southern slavic)
do more research

Fun fact, Gaelic is technically a Slavic language. It broke off further back than others, but Irish and Scottish are related to Russian.

Poles can understand Czechs just fine. And can understand as much Russian as you described for Czech.

[Dosmans]

You meant AD not CE... Calendar you use is Gregorian... Oh the americans... they always try to make some new words from wrong reasons...

Do I see some of Minna Sundbergs art in the background?

[samvimes]

Iirc the languages of the former yugoslavia aren't mutually intelligble

[johssjrvad]

What categodry does romanian fall under. And is romania even slavic?
