The Romanian language (Românește) is an East Romance language primarily spoken in Romania and Moldova, having an official status in both countries, as well as being one of the official languages of the European Union. It is recognized as a minority language in Bulgaria, Hungary, Serbia, and Ukraine. Romanian belongs to the Italic branch of the Indo-European language family, sharing a lot in common with French, Italian, Spanish, Catalan, and Portuguese, however, it is not mutually intelligible with them. Ukrainian is an East Slavic language primarily spoken in the Ukraine where it has official status, while also recognized as a minority language in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Serbia, and Slovakia.

My mom is Ukrainian and dad is romanian and knowing both languages made me LOOL watching this 🚫 🧢

[abelbenzo]

Andrei must not have grown up religious.. Slava domnului and milostiv are words I've heard since I was a baby

[e.n.]

I'm Ukrainian, and my Romanian friend gave me a link to this. Thanks, it was fun to watch :)

Romania is Latin Island in the middle of Slavic sea

A Ukrainian here, "топор" (topor) is a Russian word for an axe, it's "сокира" (sokyra) in Ukrainian, other than that great video!

[RhiannonSenpai]

I'm really shocked he didn't know the word "slava" si "milostiv".

[stannicolae]

romanian words such as "slava" or "milostiv" are mainly used by the church, thats why he didnt know them

Rude means relatives in Romanian. I'm American and can say that some of my relatives are rude af lol. Funny how rude can mean something else in a different language.

Milostiv and Slavă are a bit archaic and mainly used by the church. I didn’t know those and I had to ask my grandpa what they were before you guys said the definition. But I was born and raised in America so my Romanian is fairly informal.

Their words for "waist" possibly originated from the French word "taille", which is also used in German and Dutch. A very similar word is used in Danish, Polish, Russian, Estonian and Esperanto as well.

Andrei was a gentleman and wanted to lose so he would score with the girl he obviously likes! I don't believe he does not understand slava and milostiv....no way!

[dorinpopa]

That moment when you are from Moldova and you understand nearly everything from both sides. To be fair it's not the case for everybody from Moldova but because of the heavier Slavic influence and knowledge of Russian I get what the Ukrainian girl was saying

Romanian language is very rich. So, there are many romanian words that express the same thing. For example, for axe we have: topor, toporisca, secure/sacure/sacura, baltag/baltac, barda, toaipa (in Moldova), or satar (used by butcher). Some words, as baltag, are archaic, but they are still used at countryside, in some regions of Romania.

tutun / tütün is a turkish words :) Love ukranian /romanian language .

[serbanmihail]

The tabar (also called tabarzin, which means "saddle axe" [in persian]) is a type of battle axe. The term tabar is used for axes originating from the Ottoman Empire, Persia, Armenia, [1] India and surrounding countries and cultures. As a loanword taken through Iranian Scythian, the word tabar is also used in most Slavic languages as the word for axe[2] (e.g. Russian: топор). Concluzie, cuvinte venite pe filiere diferite numind acelasi lucru
