  • Persian and Sanskrit share a common origin and have a very ancient connection. Their common ancestor was Indo-Iranian, which later branched off into Indo-Aryan and Iranian languages. In this video, we compare some of the similarities between Sanskrit (संस्कृत) and Persian (فارسی), with Aanandi and Arnika representing Sanskrit, and Aryana and myself on the Persian side. Though we compared Sanskrit to Modern Persian for a wider reach, the words have entered modern Persian through Old Persian and as you will notice in the video, Old Persian and Sanskrit were much closer in terms of sounds, syntax, grammar and alphabetical order. Please note, that these words did not enter Persian through Sanskrit, as some people falsely claim in the comments, but rather, they share the same root and have a common origin.

    Here are the words we used in the video:
    - Branch - Sanskrit शाखा (shaakhaa). Persian شاخه (shaakheh)
    - Fist - Persian مشت (mosht). Sanskrit मुष्टि (muShTi)
    - Thirst and thirsty, respectively - Sanskrit तृष्णा. Persian تشنه (teshneh)
    - Newborn - Persian نوزاد (nozaad). Sanskrit नवजात (navajaata)
    - Fifth - Sanskrit पंचम (panchama). Persian پنجم (panjom)
    - Name - Persian نام (naam). Sanskrit: नाम (naama)
    - Leather/skin - चर्म (charma). Persian چرم (charm)
    - Nature - Persian سرشت (seresht), Sanskrit सृष्टि (Srishti)
    - Knee - Sanskrit जानु (Jaanu). Persian زانو (zaanu)
    - Milk - Persian شیر (sheer). Sanskrit क्षीर (Ksheera)
    - Water - Sanskrit आप् (aap). Persian آب (aab).
    - Cloud - Persian ابر (abr). Sanskrit अभ्र (abr)
    Additional words that came up in conversation were names of body parts like prushtha/posht, angushtha/angosht.
    Words under consonant change: Saptaha/hafte, Swapna/khwab and Swasru/khwahar.
    Some other words that we discussed: names of animals such as ewe (mesh/meesh), mouse (mooshak/moosh), camel (Ushtra à oshtor à shotor), jackal (shrigal/shoghal).
    Sanskrit (संस्कृत) is one of the oldest Indo-Aryan languages. It has influenced several Indo-European, Iranian, as well as European languages. It is the primary liturgical language of Hinduism and some texts of Buddhism and Jainism. Today, Sanskrit is still spoken as a primary language in some parts of India. Sanskrit has had a significant impact on languages outside of the Indian subcontinent. Sanskrit manuscripts and inscriptions have been found in China, Indonesia, Myanmar, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Mongolia, Thailand, Malaysia, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Korea, Japan, and other parts of the world. It is very common to find words that are derived from Sanskrit in Chinese, Sino-Tibetan languages, Thai, Khmer, and Lao. Austronesian languages, such as Javanese, Malay, Tagalog, and Indonesian, also derive a portion of their vocabulary from Sanskrit. European languages, including English, also contain words derived from Sanskrit.
    The Persian language (Farsi) is also an ancient language which has had a huge impact on other languages and cultures, mainly the Middle East, as well as Central and South Asia. Classified as one of the Western Iranian languages, Persian holds official status in Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan. Persian has strongly influenced numerous Turkic languages, as well as Armenian, Georgian, and many languages in the Indian subcontinent. Persian has a long history of literature and it was the first language in the Muslim world to break through Arabic's monopoly on writing. It was even established as a court tradition instead of Arabic under many ruling Muslim dynasties.

    Persian and Sanskrit share a common origin. They are both Indo-Iranian language, a branch of the Indo-European language family, which later formed into Indo-Aryan and Iranian (Iranic) languages. These similarities and common words are not the result of Persian being influenced by Sanskrit, as some people falsely claimed in the comments, but rather, they share the same root and have a common ancestor.

    And no, I am not Zoroastrian. Since this question is frequently asked in the comments, I just want to clarify that this symbol, Faravahar, while it is a Zoroastrian religious symbol, is also an Iranian symbol used by millions of Iranians who are not Zoroastrian. You will see it in many non-Zoroastrian households, inside and outside Iran, and many wear it as a necklace or have a tattoo of it. Regardless of one's religion, Zoroastrianism plays a huge role in shaping the culture and identity of Iranian people today. Many Iranian Muslims, Baha'is, non-religious, and atheists consider Zoroastrianism to be a part of their identity, especially its important concept of "Good Thoughts, Good Words, Good Deeds", which we are reminded of when we see the Faravahar. I don't usually have this as my background in other videos, however, for this video, I figured it was relevant, so I sat in that part of the living room.
    For all those who asked, the wall art behind me is from Oriavi. They have a lot of beautiful Persian items. This is their website: oriavi.com/

For example Veda in Sanskrit means knowledge and Vedim means I know in Serbo-Croatian or Wiem (Viem) in Polish. Or the number six in Persian is shesh and sheshch in Polish. Last one Bodhi which is Sanskrit for awake is obudzić in Polish, if you take the root budzi and change the dz sound to a d sound you get budi. So cool 😎

They are good at metal works, music, dance etc.. Have heards of animals.. They move from one place to another.. In medivial times, they were traders too.. So may be a branch of these groups went westwards after the islamic invasion of india, and the political instability associated with the same in north western india pushed them for greener pastures....

    It's quite weird and interesting to watch this as a Lithuanian and a language nerd, because so many words you discussed are immediatly recognisable to me.
    Shaakhaa - Šaka (branch), basically identical to Sanskrit and Persian.
    mosht/muShTi - mušt/mušti, Persian is similar to dialectal Lithuanian where we'd say mušt and Sanskrit is similar to proper Lithuanian mušti, but in Lithuanian this means "to beat" and not "fist".
    trishna - troškulys (thirst), more similar to Sanskrit than Persian.
    Swapna - sapnas (dream)
    Swasru - sesuo (sister)
    Some others weren't as similar, like naam and naama (name) don't have a cognate in Lithuanian. The word for name is vardas which is from the PIE word for "word".
    Charma/charm (leather) doesn't have a cognate again. Leather/skin is "oda" in Lithuanian, which is related to the Sanskrit word for armor and probably had a the meaning of pelt/animal hide in Proto-Baltic, as the Finnish borrowing vuota means exactly those things.
    And other things you discussed, like grammar similarties are very much same, like a singer and painter would be daininkas, dailininkas, with a -kas/-kė ending added, similar to Sanskrit.
    A very interesting video, always fun to hear how these words changed over many millenia from when our ancestors went seperate ways, and not just read about them. Thank you, Bahador!

      Even though my language, Danish, is almost the opposite in terms of retaining old features, I still found it interesting to try and recognize some words, especially seeing how much they have changed :)
      For instance:
      Swapna - sapnas (dream) - Søvn (sleep)
      Teshne - Trshna (thirst) - Tørst (thirst)
      Naam - Naama (name) - Navn (name)

    • @timg.5400
      @timg.5400 3 роки тому +9

      @VFM #7634 Slovenian preserved dual forms fully, so it preserved them in nouns, adjectives and verbs. For instance: one small city = (eno) malo mesto, two small cities = (dve) mali mesti, three small cities = tri mala mesta, so endings are different in adjectives and nouns for one, two and three/four and in Slovenian even between four and five and more, for instance five small cities = pet malih mest. And this is only nominative case, Slovenian has six cases and in all cases dual is preserved. Dual is preserved also in verbs, for instance: I watch = (jaz) gledam, we two watch = (midva) gledava, we tree (or more) watch = (mi) gledamo, you watch = (ti) gledaš, you two watch (vidva) gledata, you three (or more) watch = (vi) gledate, they two watch = (onadva) gledata, they three (or more) watch= (oni) gledajo.

Currently we have some population of parsi community which have Persian ethnicity. They came to india to take refuge when Persians were attacked by Islamic forces. So we have great similarity in language and in culture. We were two civilization lived as neighbour for centuries. You Persians should trace your old roots before islamic invasion that will give you more civilizational clarity. Lots of love from india.

    Wonderful work as usual Bahador.
    It's really awesome to see a video about similarities in between two of the major old languages.
    Lovely thing is India has many languages which are very heavily and beautifully influenced by Sanskrit and Farsi.
    Marathi is my native language and there are many many Persian words.
    Awesomest part is I found many words which are used in Marathi in İstanbul. I was shocked to see that.
    How is that even possible? It is because both Marathi and Turkish have Farsi connection.
    I would love to see reaction of our brothers/sisters from Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Turkey who speak Farsi and/or languages influenced by Farsi after hearing some Marathi words(influenced by Farsi).
    The GREAT part from the video is Arnika has explained everything in detail: how change of letters in the words can result in words from different languages and what is the exact pattern of this transformation/exchange. This was explained very beautifully with examples. I have never seen such a GREAT explanation before.
    The BEST PART about your channel is, to see someone working hard on finding similarities/connections in the languages that too in the world where hatred gets spread very easily.. It is a VERY VERY BIG thing.

    Some of the identities were enthralling - Nozad and Navajat, for instance; it's so straightforward, once explained.
    Numbers are so close, as they should be.
    All Sanskrit words have a terminal 'a', unless shortened by a diacritical mark, the 'hasanta'. So it's Rama, not Ram, Siva, not Siv, and so on. So, too, Nama, or correctly, Namam, not (as in current Indo-Aryan languages) Nam.

      "Tvaya" means "by you" in Sanskrit and sounds very similar to Russian "твоя" which is a feminine form of "your(s)"

      @Blue Wind Are you aware that in Russian, vowels "о", "е" sound differently, when not stressed? Therefore "твоя" sounds like "тва'jа" in Serbian. Also if you are curious, try to translate words "понос", "пролив" and "майка" from Russian.

    Did anybody felt one thing that how we people are connected to each other no matter where we live. Like Sanskrit shares similarities with Persian who thought about that earlier. Connection between our languages shows how we humans are connected to each other, we just focus on our differences unnecessarily even when we are the same inside. We just look on our differences not the similarities. Similarities between languages shows similarities between our ancestors.❤️

    I request you to do a Sanskrit-Russian similarities video. I likely requested earlier and then started learning Russian. I am just amazed at how many similar words and grammatical concepts there are. I'm sure many indians would understand and go bonkers on hearing the Russian "Priyatnava apetita" (bon appétit) because priyatna is a Sanskrit word.
    In fact some intonations in Russian are strikingly similar to Marathi and other Indian intonations.

      Many people in the comments are saying that this video is a nice evidence of aryan invasion theory/aryan Dravidian theory which is total nonsense to weaken indian integrity. Before just using this theory it is important to know how it originated(linguistic similarities) and also why is it in existence (just to weaken indian integrity and promote conversions).
      See any of these ↓ videos to get some knowledge and know some facts:

      Don't be one sided think on both sides. Finally be on the right side.
      And my opinion is that aryan invasion is false and a reverse is true that is out of india migration.
      Some points to support out of india migration:
      1. Similarities in the languages spoken.
      This supports aryan invasion theory also but, you can see that sanskrit is more organized than all those related languages.
      You can say that it was organized later when aryans came to india.
      But, every sanskrit word has a root word (Dhaatu). And every dhaatu represents a property. So all the words that have a same dhatu must have the property that the dhatu stands for. All this cannot be organized from a language which already has words for each thing.
      Even the alphabets of sanskrit are so much organized (according to the region of throat where each alphabet is pronounced and how it sounds when you speak fast or be lazy)
      2. Many civilizations around the world are connected with india for a long time and many of them share many similarities.you can see that the names used in the west are very much derived from indian names.You can relate most of their names to sanskrit origin.
      3. Sanatana dharmic civilization has a great effect on both bible and Quran.
      Many practices of christians and muslims are just transferred from their ancestors (who according to my opinion are directly related to sanatana dharmic civilization)

    I was stunned by ushta for lips, because in Serbian (and in many other Slavic languages), usta is the mouth! The word for five remains pretty similair in Slavic languages - pet, (ex-Yu languages), pięć (Polish), piat' (Russian transcribed in Latin). Apă is water in Romanian. Sept (pronounced without the p) is seven in French.There is one word , nature in the Persian version, that made me giggle, but I can't explain it here. Ex-Yu speakers will know :D Anyway, I enjoyed the video very much, thanks Bahador and the ladies.

      The Persian gets closer to Sanskrit if you look at Old Persian (and sometimes Avestan) forms. Modern Persian obviously compounded differences from PIE and the cognates get less recognizable. Just like Hindi/Urdu has compounded differences and many otherwise-related words sound very different.
