It's depressing how this language family is dying. Overall there are only 24 million people speaking any language from this language family. Moreover there are only 3 nations among these language, whose country has independence and only 1 language which is natively spoken by over 10 million people. Anyways I hope we can keep these languages alive as long as possible.

Я мари и мне дороги все финно-угорские языки. Как же они прекрасны!!

So beautiful! I'm happy to be part of Finno-Ugric family. Greetings and love from Estonia to all my Finno-Ugric brothers and sisters 😊❤️

As a Finn, with some of these languages it feels like understanding them is just barely out of reach. Very odd feeling, like you can't hear clearly... Beautiful languages, all of them.

I'm from South Africa, and been introduced to this music by a very dear Estonian friend.
May your beautiful languages and cultures and music all be preserved and last another thousand years!
Love from the other side of the world.

Да, это так самобытно и красиво. Не стесняйтесь своего языка. Это так прекрасно звучит. Я мари, хочется, чтобы народы финно- Угры украшали нашу землю долго-долго

[qricc]

It's like I can understand-- but really can't.
Love from Finland.

These languages are beautiful. Love from Hungary. I really have to cry because of Mansi extinction.

Я девушка с Кавказа, и не имею никакого отношения к этим народам. Но почему то с самого детства я их безумно обожаю. Их музыку, язык, культуру. Боже, насколько же красивы и завораживающи их песни. В них какая то особенная энергетика, не похожая ни на какую другую. Особенная, отдельная, уникальная. ❤

[Батя-ич]

Как же красиво звучат все эти песни, испытываю то чувство как будто нахожусь в родительской колыбели. Все эти языки просто необходимо сохранить.

This is one of the best Youtube posts I have ever enjoyed. I love the music, especially. It is a shame that so many of these languages are threatened with extinction. They're beautiful.

Wonderful languages! The second and eight - Estonian and Komi - are especially beautiful to me but among all of them, the second last, Mansi is like a distant memory from thousands of years ago that was slumbering somewhere in my DNA only to be awakened by the song. The moment the first word - Kukkuk - was heard, I burst into tears, it was so touching! Greetings from Hungary!

[ildars.]

Greetings to our Finno-Ugric brothers from the Tatars! Take care of your languages and customs!

[jonnhycolt]

Очень интересно слушать фолк песни финнов угорских народов. Привет из Украины. Мне очень нравится ваша культура.

[carlgustafemilmannerheim]

Peace and love to my finno ugric brothers and sisters. My mother was adopted from north eastern Finland, so I dont speak any finno ugric language but I have a huge respect and love to all the people, from Finland to Estonia and Hungary, as well to all the indegenous people living in Russia. The language and especially the music is both beautiful and powerful.
Cheers (:

I`m Bulgarian, a Slavic language native speaker, but I`m so impressed by this language family. These languages have amazing grammar with so many cases. We don`t have any cases in Bulgarian. ;)

[funnygummy]

So beautiful songs! I'm a proud Finnish now.
People really should try to protect these small languages and be proud of their mother tongue whatever it is. Every language is part of the history and every language have created a culture and it is sad that those parts of the culture die.

[redberryterf]

wow livonian is surprisingly close to my native language finnish. in the song it says "ala sada ama pava", and it can be written in finnish as "älä sada koko päivää". and "ligo" can be written as "liiku" in finnish, I guess. really great video, I gave thumbs up for this. :)

In my home-okrug, Khanty-Mansi, universities are introducing small Khanty/Mansi courses. Maybe not all hope is lost for Russia...

[gergelylazar]

The Mansi language... I was close to cry. Stay strong there in Russia, brothers. Unfortunately, I have to admit that I do not know the Hungarian song, even though I am crazy about Hungarian folksongs.
