    The dislikes on this video shows how even such an innocent video on our language can bring in so much hate. Our oppressors do not have a problem with particular groups, they have a problem with the Kurdish existence. Our oppressors have stolen everything from us, hence why anything Kurdish threatens their whole existence. Keep hating, you only make us stronger. Bijî Kurdistan, Bijî Kurd.

    The word "human" in Kurdish is very interesting.
    In Kurmanji one says for the word "human" Mirov / Meriv which means mortal in real, from the word Mir / Mer for death.
    In Sorani, Piyawekan is said to mean "man" which means "risen". Mortal and Risen. Very interesting, also from a philosophical point of view.

    I made friends with a bunch of Kurds in middle school and high school, when I played soccer. By far some of the greatest people I have ever known; I suppose it is true that hardship builds character. 2 Iraq Kurds, 2 Turkish Kurds, and 1 Iranian Kurd. I recall they were able to speak in Kurdish with one another, though I don't know to what degree, and not one of them spoke any fewer than 3 languages. One of them, named Ako, was fluent in Kurdish, Turkish, English, Arabic, and German. Last I knew, he was living in Italy, so I presume he had no trouble adding Italian to his impressive resume.

    I always notice Indo-European connections. Jin in Kurdish appears to be a cognate of жінка (zhinka) in Ukrainian. Also, Kurdish the verb dîtin "to see" is similar to Ukrainian (watch) дивитися (dyvytysja). Object pronoun "Min" in Kurdish resembles мене (mene) in Ukrainian. Also, the negative particle "ne" is virtually the same in Kurdish and Ukrainian. I noticed numerous other examples of similarity as well.
    Amazing how Indo-European languages have this kind of similarity, but you have to look deeply to notice it.

    My family's origin is Turkish but been mixing with local Kurds from Canbeg tribe for almost 150 years which makes us almost no different than local Kurds. My grandfathers and father grew up bilingual. But the point is that they don't understand dialects of other tribes and other cities fluently but get the meaning of their sentences, songs etc. When I show them cultural stuff from the Canbeg tribes from other cities, they understand these people more than others. But for Sorani and Gorani, they think it's almost completly different.
    As for the new generation, they're more open in terms of understanding the structure of other dialects of Kurdish in other cities and regions. Because they're seeing vocabulary from the materials on the internet and the social media. Just like other family groups, it makes it easier to see other dialects of a language group on a common alphabet system. I also experienced it from Turkic languages. When they put their sentences into Latin alphabet, it's easier for a Turkish speaker to understand more of Turkmen, Kazakh,Kyrgyz,Uyghur etc languages. Because you can't notice it by speaking and miss to hearing many words

Because it's the same language. I watched videos and listened to songs. In this way, I developed myself a little more. Anyway, I just want to say this. Sorani is a very beautiful dialect.

    I speak Sorani and i understand all of the Kurdish dialects but not 100%. Its important to notice that even Sorani or Kurmanji can sound different from one city to another. Because of assimilation policies by Iraq, Iran and Turkey, the Kurdish dialects are heavily influenced in some cities. I.e in Kirkuk, where they more frequently use Arabic words, since Kurdish was prohibited under Saddams regime. I also speak 3 other languages and understand 7-8 in total. Kurdish is a great door-opened to learn new languages. You learn to basically pronounce every vocal there is. Thanks for a precise video ✌🏽

    Thanks for the great presentation! I am a native Kurdish speaker and my dialect is Sorani. The great thing about being a Kurdish native speaker is that you have the opportunity to learn a variety of languages and other Kurdish dialects. The way we pronounce the words helps us learn Arabic easily. Common words make it easier to understand and speak Farsi as well. Also, naturally, we enjoy reading (and listening to) Kurdish, Farsi, and Arabic poems (and songs).

    My native tongue is Kurdi Sorani. And yes it could be a bit confusing listening to a different dialect for the first time such as Kurmanji. But it's definitely understandable. And I could probably learn to speak it fluently in under a week. I believe that all the Kurdish dialects are a part of one single language.

    I am kurd from Rojava , and I can speak the three Kurdish Dialects :
    Kurmanjî , Badînî and Soranî.
    Concerning your question, the Kurdish language is one and divides into three basic branches and some minor ones like zazakî and goranî.
    I have been in Başûr (Iraqi Kurdistan ) for five years and I found a lot of mutual words.the difficulty is in the way they combine this words , the composition of the sentence.
    Another significant difference that you didn’t mention in your video is the use of letter V.
    In kurmanjî it is excessively used while in Soranî they use (W or Y ) instead of it.
    For example :
    Onion , pîvaz , piyaz
    Shepard, şivan, şiwan
    Water , av , aw
    Guest , mêvan , mêwan
    =====
    Finally, I would like to thank you for this great video.

    I like the word Ya star the most because it means "O star" like "my star" because a mother is like a star to you. So people love your mothers and respect them.

However when you add 'ya' before 'daye' in Polish it sounds like in the word 'Ja daje' which makes it 1st person singular meaning 'I give' - the omission of the proper 1st person ending 'ę' often happens in common speech .
