Cornish vs Breton vs Welsh | Can they understand each other?

Ecolinguist 2024-09-13 | Cornish, Breton, and Welsh are all part of the Brythonic branch of the Celtic language family. They share linguistic roots, meaning they have similar grammar structures, vocabulary, and pronunciation. Historically, these languages evolved from Common Brittonic. Though they’ve developed separately—Cornish in Cornwall (UK), Breton in Brittany (France), and Welsh in Wales (UK)—their shared Brythonic roots keep them linguistically close.

In this video, we’re running a series of language challenges to test how mutually intelligible Cornish, Breton, and Welsh are. Join us to find out! Scroll down for the Cornish language resources.

🤗 BIG THANKS to the participants of the challenge!

Brazilian vs European | Portuguese Language Challenge

Ecolinguist 2023-09-17 | Brazilian Portuguese and European Portuguese are two distinct varieties of the Portuguese language. While they share a common linguistic base, they exhibit differences in pronunciation, vocabulary, and even idiomatic expressions.

In today's episode, we're exploring idiomatic expressions unique to Brazilian Portuguese. We've challenged some European Portuguese speakers to decipher their hidden meanings. But there's a twist: participants buzz in to set the answering order, and no two answers can be the same. Each participant needs to bring a fresh interpretation to the table.

How well do you think they did? And how about you? Were you familiar with any of these idioms? Watch, compare, and share your thoughts in the comments. If you enjoy our linguistic explorations, a like and a subscribe would be greatly appreciated!

Can they understand Ukrainian? | Mutual Intelligibility Test | feat. @MaxGavrilov

Ecolinguist 2023-09-04 | The Ukrainian language belongs to the family of Slavic languages. In this video comparison you can see to what extent these languages (Ukrainian vs Polish vs Croatian vs Czech) are mutually intelligible.

Mutual intelligibility is the ability of speakers of different languages to understand each other without prior knowledge or special effort.

This video is for you if you'd like to learn Ukrainian or you just want to see how much you're able to understand it off the cuff. The video has subtitles in multiple languages but I'd recommend for you to challenge yourself by listening to spoken Ukrainian before you turn them on.

Can you understand Brazilian Portuguese? | Part 4

Ecolinguist 2023-09-03 | Welcome to our Romance Language Challenge, where we test the mutual intelligibility between Portuguese and other Romance languages! If you're a speaker of French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Spanish or any other Romance Language, let us know if you can understand what word is described in this mini-challenge. Whether you're a language enthusiast or just curious about how well speakers of Romance languages can understand each other, this challenge is for you!

Mutual intelligibility is the ability of speakers of different languages to understand each other without prior knowledge or special effort. In the case of Romance languages, mutual intelligibility exists to varying degrees due to their shared origin in Vulgar Latin and the influence of the Roman Empire.

The Romance languages include Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian, Romanian, and many more smaller regional languages. While these languages have evolved over time and developed distinct features, they still share many similarities in grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation, which allow speakers to understand each other to some extent.

Can you understand Serbian? | Short 1 #languagechallenge

Ecolinguist 2023-08-17 | This short is an exercise aimed at practicing the Serbian language comprehension through guessing words based on a set of clues. In each round, a different word is described with a series of hints, such as its category, function, or characteristics. Viewers are encouraged to guess the word before it is revealed on screen.

Serbian, an official language of Serbia and one of the standard varieties of Serbo-Croatian, stands as a testament to the rich cultural and linguistic diversity of the Balkan region. With millions of speakers primarily in Serbia and neighboring countries, Serbian holds a unique place in the Slavic language family.

As a South Slavic language, Serbian shares linguistic roots with languages like Croatian and Bosnian. It is characterized by its use of the Cyrillic script, although the Latin script is also commonly used. The language's history has been shaped by various influences, including Latin, Old Church Slavonic, Ottoman Turkish, and more.

🤗 Big thanks to Veljko from Serbia for recording the challenge!

Croatian Language | Can Ukrainian, Bulgarian and Polish speakers understand it?

Ecolinguist 2023-08-16 | Mutual intelligibility refers to the fascinating phenomenon where speakers of closely related languages can comprehend each other without formal study. As we dive into this linguistic experiment, we're excited to reveal the threads that bind these Slavic languages together.

Croatian, with its rich history and distinct characteristics, serves as the focal point of this linguistic journey. Through a series of language challenges, we're on a mission to uncover the extent to which speakers of Polish, Ukrainian and Bulgarian languages can understand Croatian, and vice versa. The magic of mutual intelligibility lies in its ability to bridge language gaps and foster cross-cultural connections.

Croatian, an official language of Croatia and one of the standard varieties of Serbo-Croatian, holds a significant place in the Slavic language family. Rooted in the Indo-European language group, Croatian is a South Slavic language with distinct phonological, grammatical, and lexical features. It utilizes the Latin script, a result of historical influences from the Roman Empire. Throughout its evolution, Croatian has been shaped by a mix of linguistic influences, including Latin, Old Church Slavonic, and various neighboring languages.

Despite its shared linguistic roots with other South Slavic languages, such as Serbian and Bosnian, Croatian retains its individuality through specific vocabulary choices, pronunciation patterns, and cultural references. However, due to their mutual intelligibility, speakers of these languages can often understand each other without formal training.

Let's see to what extent Polish, Ukrainian and Bulgarian speakers can understand the Croatian language.

Latvian is the official language of Latvia, spoken by the majority of the population, while Lithuanian holds the distinction of being one of the oldest Indo-European languages still in use today. Both languages have retained archaic elements from their ancient origins, making them fascinating subjects of linguistic study.

Mutual intelligibility refers to the ability of speakers of closely related languages to understand each other to varying degrees without prior knowledge or extensive exposure.

Although Latvian and Lithuanian share some similarities due to their shared ancestry, they are separate languages with their own distinct grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation. While speakers of one language may recognize certain words in the other, the mutual intelligibility between them is limited, hindering effortless communication.

Despite their linguistic differences, Latvian and Lithuanian foster a sense of cultural solidarity in the Baltic region, showcasing the diversity and richness of language within the European continent.

Can Dutch and German speakers understand Danish?

Ecolinguist 2023-07-12 | In this video, we delve into the question: "Can Dutch and German speakers understand Danish?" Join us as we embark on a linguistic adventure, exploring the similarities and differences between these three Germanic languages.

Dutch, German, and Danish all belong to the West Germanic language family, but how well do they mutually understand each other? Through immersive language challenges and real-life conversations, we aim to shed light on the level of intelligibility between these linguistic cousins.

Mutual intelligibility refers to the extent to which speakers of related languages can comprehend each other without prior knowledge or extensive exposure. As Dutch and German share many similarities in vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation, it's expected that there will be a certain degree of understanding between these two languages. However, the inclusion of Danish adds an exciting twist, as it introduces unique linguistic features that might pose challenges to comprehension.

In this thought-provoking exploration, we'll witness Dutch and German speakers engaging in conversations with Danish speakers, testing their ability to decipher Danish words, phrases, and expressions. We'll uncover fascinating insights into the intricacies of these languages and gain a deeper appreciation for their shared heritage and distinctive characteristics. 🤓

Finnish vs Võro | Can they understand each other? | feat. @AleksiHimself

Ecolinguist 2023-07-11 | In this video, we explore similarities and differences between Võro and Finnish, examining the factors that contribute to their mutual intelligibility. Through engaging language challenges, we aim to showcase the linguistic connections and enhance our understanding of these unique languages.

Võro and Finnish are both Finno-Ugric languages belonging to the Uralic language family. Võro is primarily spoken in the southeastern region of Estonia, while Finnish is the official language of Finland. Despite being separate languages, they share a close linguistic relationship and exhibit mutual intelligibility to some extent.

Mutual intelligibility refers to the ability of speakers of closely related languages to understand each other to varying degrees without prior knowledge or extensive exposure. In the case of Võro and Finnish, speakers of one language may be able to comprehend certain words, phrases, or even entire sentences when listening to or reading the other language. This is due to the historical and linguistic similarities between the two languages.

Join us on this linguistic journey as we celebrate the rich diversity of Finno-Ugric languages and uncover the fascinating relationship between them. Whether you are a speaker of one language or simply interested in languages and their connections, this video offers an exciting exploration of mutual intelligibility and the intricate ties that bind Finno-Ugric languages together.

Can you understand Catalan? | #3

Ecolinguist 2023-07-06 | Welcome to our Romance Language Challenge, where we test the mutual intelligibility between Catalan and other Romance languages! If you're a speaker of French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Spanish or any other Romance Language, let us know if you can understand what word is described in this mini-challenge.

Mutual intelligibility is the ability of speakers of different languages to understand each other without prior knowledge or special effort. In the case of Romance languages, mutual intelligibility exists to varying degrees due to their shared origin in Vulgar Latin and the influence of the Roman Empire.

Can Dutch speakers understand Afrikaans Idioms? | Part 2

Ecolinguist 2023-06-14 | Last time we focused on testing general intelligibility of Afrikaans to Dutch speakers. In this video, we raised the bar and we want to see if Dutch speakers can understand idiomatic expressions in Afrikaans. We run this language challenge to find out. 🤓

Afrikaans is a West Germanic language, and it is one of the official languages of South Africa. It is believed to be mutually intelligible with other Germanic languages, such as Dutch and Flemish. Due to its origins in Dutch, Afrikaans has similarities in vocabulary and grammar with these languages. However, Afrikaans has also developed its own unique features over time, such as simplified grammar and a distinctive pronunciation. Can speakers of Dutch and Afrikaans understand each other despite these differences? Do let us know in the comments about your own experience with Afrikaans.

Afrikaans is a West Germanic language primarily spoken in South Africa but it's also spoken in Namibia, with smaller communities of speakers in Zimbabwe, Botswana, and other neighboring countries. It originated from the Dutch dialects spoken by the Dutch settlers who arrived in southern Africa in the 17th century. Over time, the language evolved and incorporated words and influences from other European languages, such as Portuguese, English, and German, as well as African languages like Khoisan and Bantu.

The Germanic language family is a branch of the larger Indo-European language family, and it includes languages spoken primarily in Northern, Western, and Central Europe. The Germanic languages are traditionally classified into three main groups: West Germanic, North Germanic, and East Germanic. However, the East Germanic languages, which included Gothic, are now extinct.

🤗 Big thanks to the participants of this video!
