Can Polish and Ukrainian speakers understand Bulgarian?
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 чер 2023
- Bulgarian is a South Slavic language spoken by approximately 9 million people primarily in Bulgaria, but also in neighboring countries and diaspora communities. It is known for its rich history and cultural significance in the Balkans region.
In this video, we present a language challenge that focuses on testing the mutual intelligibility between Bulgarian, Ukrainian, and Polish. Mutual intelligibility refers to the ability of speakers of related languages to understand each other to some degree without prior knowledge or formal training.
Through a series of language challenges, we explore the similarities and differences between these three Slavic languages. You will be able examine vocabulary, grammar structures, and pronunciation patterns to gauge the level of comprehension and ease of communication between speakers of the two languages.
This language challenge not only provides an entertaining and educational experience but also highlights the interconnectedness of Slavic languages and the shared linguistic heritage of these countries. It showcases the potential for cross-cultural communication and understanding among speakers of related languages.
Whether you are a native Bulgarian speaker curious about Ukrainian and Polish, or a speaker of Ukrainian or Polish interested in Bulgarian, this video offers a unique opportunity to test your language skills and discover the fascinating connections between these languages.

as a Ukranian who speaks Russian I understands quite a bit both Polish and Bulgarian. But I was confused. I was sure that Polish is more similar to Ukranian and Bulgarian is more similar to Russian. But as I can see it is not so simple)).
@@andrewnajdenov9917 Bulgarian is more similar to Russian than to Ukrainian. Similarly, Polish is more similar to Ukrainian than to Russian. But Bulgarian is so divergent as a language that even one of the closest languages to it lexically ─ Russian ─ is still quite far away. In reality, Polish is generally still more intelligible to Russian speakers than Bulgarian due to the familiar grammar and accent.

''диня'' (dinja) can be both watermelon and melon actually. Polish for some reason changed it to pumpkin.

За мен бъгарският език е на много по-високо ниво от такива световни езици като - опростения и развален църковнославянски ( руски ) , а и неадекватния като ползване на азбука ,членоразделност и твърде много произволни конструкции ( ангийския ) !
Полският език - за мен това е силно изроден ( звуково ) славянски ... , а украинският е явно една неулегнала сравнително нова смес от руски ,славяно-балкански и около-полски ....

Hi, I am Ukrainian and I love these videos)
I must say, the first time I heard "оранжев зеленчук" my brain had to process it for a bit) But yeah, it totally makes sense that the word for "vegetable" would be derived from the color green.
The discussion they had figuring out "pumpkin" reminded me of the time I was on a train to Krakow and tried talking to this nice Polish man with my poor polish skills, and sometimes we had to explain things to each other very similarly to what's shown here)
As a ukrainian who speaks fluently both russian and polish I was able to guess all the words corrrectly after 50-70% of explanation without any additional questions. I have never heard bulgarian language earlier. And I can assure you that for ukrainian speaker it is easier to understand bulgarian than for polish speaker. More similar words and much similar sounding of words.
Weird most Ukrainians say that Polish is more similar but I guess if you are from Odessa or south of that where there are Bulgarian minorities a.k.a. Bessarabian Bulgarians you'll have more contact with them. Not all of them know Bulgarian but some of them still know it.
@@HeroManNick132 I've written about understanding bulgarian when we compare ukrainian speaker and polish speaker. But if we speak about a language with most similar words to ukrainian it definitely would be polish.

My Bulgarian is not the best but I'm glad I can still understand it after not speaking it since my early childhood and mainly prioritising my Czech, think its time i re-learned it, its an amazing language.
Викаш, че е трудно да говориш на български, когато цял живот живееш в Чехия, така ли?
As a Ukrainian who has been living in Bulgaria for over a year, I enjoyed it a lot:)
Neda is just amazing!
A Western, an Eastern try to understand a Southern, what a choice!
Right, these must be the furthest languages in the slavic family
@@ilya1421 Nah. Ukrainian is pretty close to Polish.
Bulgarian is exactly easter-southern, so it is not that far from Ukrainian. It is far from Polish though.
I noticed that the Bulgarian girl some times pronounces 'r' sounds in kind of French way: eRic, or 'kpak' as in cRack. Is it a speech defect or is it usual pronunciation?
That sounds nice, anyway :)
Ukrainian girl said that she knows russian so russian is the closest lang to southern ones from other groups, that was easy for her
девушка очень хорошо объясняла слова и давала подсказки, т.ч. было не сложно отгадывать и без субтитров. а если ещё и с ними смотреть, то вообще практически всё ясно

I was 3 weeks in Bulgaria in 2015 and before departure was able to communicate with locals. Its been 8 years but I still remember couple of words. Здравейте! Я само малко розбирам Болгарски. 😄 Болгарська мова дуже гарна. 🇺🇦 ❤🇧🇬 Greetings from Ukraine
Аз само малко разбирам (разумявам) български.*
И я само малко разбирам украински, но можем да се разберем... ☺️☝️👌
As a native speaker of Russian, I thought I'd understand nothing in Bulgarian, but I was really glad to be wrong :) I found some peculiar similarities in Bulgarian and Russian.
The first word was a piece of cake (but with Bulgarian subs of course). Speaking of семейството на Кучетата (I guess the words are declined in cases), there is an obsolete word for puppies in Russian "кутята" (sounds koo-tya-tah), which sound similar. And the Canidae family is семейство псовых (semeystvo Psovykh - Canidae family), which sounds similar to the Polish "psowatych".
The word сив, сивият is really similar to a specific Russian word we use to describe a horse's gray color - сивый (sivy).
That's cool the word зеленчук has the stem "green" in it, which is basically greenery.
The word "ястия" (dishes) is really similar to the Russian obsolete/elevated style word "яства" (dishes)
The words for pumpkin, melon and watermelon are a complete mess :D In Russian we have тыква (tykva) for pumpkin, дыня (dynia) for melon and арбуз (arbooz) for watermelon. The Slavic languages are so interchangeable in some cases lol :D
Bulgarian has ''пес/псе'' but only for street dog, so ''семейство псета'' will mean ''family of street dogs.'' ''Кутя'' means to take care/keep something, while ''кутре'' means ''puppy/pinkie'' and ''кутренце'' is the deminative version of ''кутре.''
I know Russian has long and short forms of the adjectives like I'm pretty sure ''сив'' also exists besides ''сивый.''
Bulgarian has ''сивий'' but that form is poetic and archaic. Pretty every adjective with ''ий'' are now used in the poetry only and we just use ''сив'' and ''сивия'' (the gray, when it's not the subject) and ''сивият'' (the gray, when it is the subject).
Funny how ''висок'' are false friends like ''булка, пила, майка.'' In Russian it means ''temple'' (part of the head), while ''висок'' in Bulgarian is tall, like how Russian has ''высок'' instead of ''высокий'' Temple (part of the head) is called here ''слепоочие.''
In some dialects ''диня'' can mean melon like Russian as well and we have ''карпуз/карпуза'' for watermelon which are not Slavic words but come from Turkic languages. But besides that we have also ''кавун/каун'' for melon/watermelon as well, despite we use the most ''пъпеш'' for melon. And we have ''любеница'' also for watermelon which is more similar to the Ex-Yugoslavian ''лубеница.'' And for melon we have also ''пипон'' in some dialects.
Neda's patient & creative explanations to help Eryk (listing other vegetables, comparing big things and small things) were great!
Шикарные объяснения! Было очень интересно, потому что было много понятного и родного. Спасибо ❤

Cringe
Eryku, rozumiemy Cię doskonale.
fajny akcent - taki przedwojenny
Eryk mówi perfekcyjnie - ma tylko wileńskie "Ł" i to jest chyba jedyny element akcentu, którym się odróżnia. Cieszę się, że jeszcze są regiony, gdzie to "Ł" jest żywe. Było też Ł na Podhalu i w Beskidzie Śląskim, ale już praktycznie zanikło.
@@wkostowski To nie jedyny element, on nie tylko ma /ɫ/ (taka sama spółgłoska jak np. w rosyjskim i innych wschodniosłowiańskich) w miejsce naszego /w/, ale też palatalizowane /lʲ/ zamiast naszego normalnego /l/ (znowu jak w rosyjskim albo też litewskim). Można też usłyszeć lekką palatalizację spółgłosek przed /i/, podobną do rosyjskiego, która w polskim całkowicie zanikła, no igrek wymawia jak rosyjskie /ɨ/, nasze jest trochę inne, bliższe /ɘ̟/. A poza tym można usłyszeć też naleciałości białoruskie i litewskie, takie jak miejscami swobodniejszy akcent (zamiast naszego zawsze stałego na przedostatnią sylabę), czasem też lekko redukuje samogłoski w nieakcentowanych sylabach, co w ogólnopolskim w ogóle nie ma miejsca, słychać też wpływ litewskiego systemu tonicznego, co jest całkiem ciekawe, brzmi trochę "sing-songy".
A tak w ogóle to nie rozumiałem nigdy sentymentu Polaków z Polski do Kresów i kresowych dialektów xd To od dawna nie są mentalnie, kulturowo i językowo Polacy, tylko Ukraińcy, Białorusini i Litwini, to nacjonalistyczne pie**olenie o powrocie Wilna i Lwowa do Polski to jakieś bajki dla kretynów. Jeszcze musielibyśmy dopłacać do dużo biedniejszych regionów Ukrainy jak zachodnie Niemcy do teraz robią ze wschodnimi xd
No i ja osobiście lubię to, że nie mamy już opozycji palatalizowane vs. niepalatalizowane spółgłoski (które dalej są we wschodniosłowiańskich) i że nasze ł ewoluowało w /w/, jesteśmy jedynym językiem słowiańskim (oprócz kaszubskiego i łużyckich, ale nimi łącznie mówi mniej niż 200 tys. osób, więc pominę je), w którym /w/ jest oddzielnym fonemem (w ukraińskim i białoruskim występuje tylko jako alofon /l/ w pewnych pozycjach). Dzięki temu polski ma unikalne cechy i fajnie jest się wyróżniać. A poza tym ten dźwięk /w/ jest dość rzadki jako fonem w całej Europie, tylko polski, hiszpański, francuski, włoski i angielski z takich głównych języków go mają, dzięki czemu możemy łatwiej się nauczyć pewnych rzeczy w angielskim niż np. Ruscy albo Niemcy.
@@bartoszwojciechowski2270 fajnie żeś to chłopie ujął. Ale jednak bardzo mi sie podoba (jak pan Wojciech sam stwierdził) styl wypowiadania naszego "Ł" jako /ł/ bardziej niż /w/. Poznałem tu w londynie takiego pewnego starego prawnika, który właśnie w taki sposób to wypowiadał. Znam język rosyjski bardzo dobrze, a nawet to mnie zaciekawiło haha.
@@notrobert8284 To prawda, brzmi to całkiem ładnie, jak na bardzo starych polskich filmach przedwojennych. Ale ja też bardzo lubię język rosyjski i litewski, mają takie piękne fonologie i fajnie, że istnieje też polski dialekt, który zapożyczył od nich pewne cechy. W pierwszej chwili myślałem, że to Ukrainiec albo Białorusin, który się nauczył świetnie mówić po polsku i tylko drobne elementy w wymowie mu zostały, ale potem usłyszałem litewską toniczność w sylabach i od razu pomyślałem: "oho, Wileniak" :D No i ogólnie fajnie, ze istnieją nadal regionalne dialekty, szkoda tylko, że już poza granicami Polski. W Polsce przez działania komuchów za PRL-u, przesiedlenia itp. praktycznie całkowicie zanikły różnice regionalne i każdy już posługuje się tylko ogólnopolskim, regionalne dialekty można jeszcze tylko usłyszeć u niektórych starszych ludzi (no i są jeszcze śląski i kaszubski, ale to oddzielne języki). To dość smutne, ale ogólnopolski to też bardzo ładny dialekt i myślę, że należy docenić to, co mamy.
That was quite a fun challenge! It flowed so well from word to word, making it very enjoyable to watch.
Поздрав на всички българи в коментарите!

And just FYI - in Western Bulgarian "dinja" means "melon" (while watermelo is "lubenica") Also, AFAIK, in southeastern Bulgaria and close to Turkey, "kaun" means "melon"
In Romania watermelon name differ from region to region.. pepene in the Valahia, harbuz in Moldova and lubeniță in Transilvania

Благодаря сабам был понятен весь смысл, без них трудно, только если по ключевым словам уловить. Конечно если посмотреть несколько видео мозг настраивается, но после несколько месяцев перерыва от прослушивания славянских языков трудненько)

Абсолютно все зрозуміло. Було дуже цікаво. Дякую організаторам зустрічі. 😊
I'm Bulgarian and I can speak a bit of Czech and Serbian + some rudimentary knowledge of Russian. I found Ukrainian rather interesting. I can hear some western features found in cz/sk - specifically the h sound that for the rest of us is a g. The lack of vowel reduction make it easier to grasp compared to Russian. The O is always O, not an A and that makes unknown words easier to recognize, although I found a lot of cognates where the O found in most languages has shifted to an I. For example pod/под became pid/під.
Polish is very difficult for us southerners. If it wasn't for the Czech I know, I'd probably get less than 20%, even with it I can barely understand anything.
Беларуският също го има, както в гръцкия ''г'' в промяна на ''х'' Плюс полският си пази носовите гласните, които някога сме имали, но вече не.
Polish language has many "hissing" sounds like "cz" "sh" "ś" "" "dz" and etc... and it's unusual, also special places are for rz and Ą and ę
@@MuJIuCTaH Bulgarian used to have ą, ę in the past but slowly these sounds were dropped in the 1920s and the letters ѫ, ѣ were used till 1945 but removed entirely from the alphabet since then.
Also some of the hissing sounds exist in Serbo-Croatian alphabet as well Macedonian.
Fun parts starts when you find that original o is preserved and getting replaced only in closed syllables so кіт (cat) but коти (cats), or рід (like lineage) but роди. And this rule mainly applies only to old words so there is no way to know which one is shifted but remember.
@@d.ilnicki This word can be confusing because in Bulgarian:
кiт (cat) - кит (whale)
As a Ukrainian I perfectly understand Polish, but only 50% of spoken Bulgarian (60-70% of written Bulgarian).
The words were explained with too many details. That is the reason why it was easy to catch the meaning.
E.g. I think it will be really difficult to recognize pumpkin if there were no explanation about decoration, face and lamp.
did you learn polish before or it's just understandable for ukrainians?
@@bacalnik00 I have very basic knowledge of Polish - not enough to speak complex sentences, but enough to understand. I learned alphabet, correct pronunciation, a little grammar and some very basic words. Then I started to watch videos on UA-cam in Polish. Now I learn Polish in Duolingo.
In general those Ukrainians who never heard Polish will understand 60-70%+ of spoken Polish. Written Polish is harder since people do not know how to correctly pronounce words and even the very similar words (that have the same root in Ukrainian) are written in a tricky way. Ukrainians need very basic and quick training to start understanding much more. I would say a month of learning is enough to start understand meanings of the sentences even without knowing some words. Of course, there are still "false friends" (words that sound similar but have different meanings) and there are Poles who speak very quickly so it is hard to catch everything they said.
@@Anton_Danylchenko thanks for answer, I'm surprised that you estimated it around 60-70% couse polish pronunciation is really wild compared to other slavic languages so I thought it's gonna be less.
And about the other way around, for me as a Pole, ukrainian turned out to be even easier than czech when I've got used to listen to it more. I think it's all about understanding some basic rules like ą usually turns into ,u' or our rz is your ,r' etc. Before the war I thought that ukrainian is almost same as russian but watching ukrianian tv and music totally changed my perspective. It's really beautiful language and I'm happy that it's actually doing good in opposite to belarusian that is dying because of russification.
Stay safe there and have a nice day.
@@bacalnik00 Yes. After understanding some basic rules it is a lot easier. Ukrainian and Polish developed together for several hundreds of years when we were in one state. Both languages borrowed the same words from e.g. German, Latin or other languages (e.g. words like "dach" and many others). Belarusian is even slightly closer to Polish than Ukrainian. Belarusians pronounce those borrowed words almost like Poles, while Ukrainians pronounce them slightly different but still recognizable. Russian borrowed many words from Old Church Slavonic and from other languages (separately and in a different way than Polish and Ukrainian). Russian is indeed a mix of East Slavic and South Slavic with a lot of Turkic and French borrowings. Russian grammar is similar to Ukrainian. Russians still have East Slavic language features in many words. However the lexics is different. Ukrainian, Belarusian and Polish share a lot of common lexics. Ukrainian is closer to Polish than to Russian.
@@Anton_Danylchenko Some words in Ukrainian are more similar to Bulgarian than in Russian but most of the time Russian is closer.

As a fellow south slavic speaker (bosnian) it was pretty easy to get all of them. I had a little problem with socks but I still got it before they announced it. And our word for it 'čarapa' is almost the same as the word for it in Bulgarian

I speak Russian natively, and Polish and Interslavic almost fluently (as well as some other unrelated languages). I was able to understand almost every single word without looking at the subtitles even once. I didn't expect Bulgarian to be so understandable, but it was, and clearly not just to me but to the speakers in the video as well. Thanks for the video!
In Serbian:
Wolf-Vuk/Вук
Most common word for watch is "sat/сат" but we also use "časovnik/часовник". "Sat" also means "hour"
Sock/socks-Čarapa/Чарапа singular and čarape/чарапе plural
Pancake-Palačinka/Палачинка
Pumpkin-Bundeva/Бундева
"Часовник / Časovnik" is our original word and we need to use it more, the "sat" is a loanword. "Час / Čas" is also hour, but we use this word also for school class (Croats tend to use "сат / sat" for school class) and sometimes for time ("у прави час / u pravi čas" - at the right time). "Бундева / Bundeva" is the most common word for pumpkin but we have more words for it like "лудаја / ludaja".
''Сат'' is not a Slavic word. It comes from Persian/Arabic through Ottoman Turkish. Bulgarian has ''сахат'' from Persian and ''саат'' from Arabic which are archaic nowadays.
@@HeroManNick132that’s what I was thinking of!!! In Uzbek, which is a Turkic language with a huge Farsi (Persian) part to it, “hour” is “soat”.
Huh... In some regions of Ukraine, specifcaly near Hungary people doing палачинта pankakes. And they also calling pan itself палачінтовка
@@amarillorose7810 ''у прави час'' sounds so funny in Bulgarian. Grammatically correct should be ''в правилния час'' or ''в правилното време.''
''у прави час'' sounds like ''at makes hour/time'' which makes 0 sense.
Literally the entire Serbo-Croatian is like old-fashioned Bulgarian with many grammar mistakes and especially how you write.
Not to mention if you write wrong in Bulgarian you are correct in Serbo-Croatian and ''Macedonian'' and vise-versa.

I'm Ukrainian (born Russian-speaking, but now speaking only Ukrainian), and I could really understand 70% Bulgarian just by ear. And Polish is easy to understand when I read it, but listening to it- it's harder. Considering that sooo many words we have are similar. I also speak English and learning Deutsch right now, and I also got really astonished how many similarities even in grammar our languages have, considering they are from different language families. Love such content!

@@andrasledermann russian-speaking Ukrainians who are now turning to Ukrainian language are not doing it as a way of protest or out of hatred towards russians, though it is partly true. It is a natural tendency since russian has never been native to Ukrainians. Those regions of Ukraine which are mostly russian-speaking, were heavily and forcibly russificated for many decades. That was done by russians in order to eliminate Ukrainians as a nation by making them forget about their language and roots and make them feel "russian" instead. Do you not understand that? Language is a nation’s identity.
@@andrasledermann well it's not about Putler, it's about earlier history of erasing Ukrainian language, starting all the way in 19th century with Valuevsky circular.
Have you heard about how the best Ukrainian-speaking writers, musicians and cultural figures were sent to GULAG by Stalin? Yeah, I was told about it at school and in the university as well and continued speaking Russian, no problem. Because "language is a bigger entity blablabla". And then Russians came for us again in 2014. Ok, I still spoke Russian after that because I wanted to prove that I as a native Russian-speaker am not discriminated against. And I wasn't. And then Russians came for us again last year. Saying that if we speak Russian we are Russians and need to be denazifyed. So this second time - that was it for me, I decided to switch to Ukrainian completely.
Russian will be okay even without me speaking it. Ukrainian will not, so I want to be the person who spreads it. And also it helps other Ukranians here in Cologne where I live see immediately that I'm Ukrainian and start a conversation.
So unless you are ready to have a civilized discussion with me I suggest we end this conversation, because you don't know anything about me but already make your conclusions. How typical

As a Croat I understood almost everything at first try, but the last one I understood through further explanation.
I'm more into the Germanic languages, but this was cool - it's so interesting to see how much they seemed to understand just in conversation in between words.
I understood very little, except the obviously Latinate words. But I learned a little and was utterly charmed, as usual.

Bulgarian (and Macedonian) are undoubtedly the most difficult Slavic languages to understand for us Poles, which of course doesn't mean that you can't understand anything. We are all Slavic after all. As for me, I'm able to understand quite a lot mainly due to the fact that apart from my native Polish I also speak Croatian/Serbian.
the Ukrainian woman also had an advantage, because all Ukrainians know Russian. And Russian is quite close to Bulgarian. therefore, unfortunately, it is difficult to conduct a pure experiment due to the bilingualism of Ukrainians

@@Robertoslaw.Iksinski Miło Cię czytać, Robercie! Ja ostatnio rzadko tu bywam, nawet wtedy, kiedy pojawiają się języki romańskie, ale dzisiaj akurat zajrzałam, a tu taka miła słowiańska niespodzianka. Czytając kiedyś pewną czeską stronkę w necie przypomniałam sobie nasze dyskusje, bo nieodłącznie kojarzysz mi się z tym językiem. Pozdrowionka😘
They are bit different, because these languages are analyical, whereas other Slavic languages are synthetical. Bulgarian and Macedonian have so called clitics instead of case endings, . On the other hand, it makes these languages much easier to learn, you don't need to learn dozens of these case endings. Instead, you just need to remember the limited amount of clitics.
Also they have a postpositive definite articles.
The difficulty may be with verbs. Like in other Slavic languages, they have different words for different aspects of verbs, depending on whether the verb's action is ongoing or completed. Also, they have different past tenses of verbs depending on whether this past tense is incomplete (perfect), complete (), indefinite (imperfect) or plusquamperfect. It's not that easy. We don't have aorist in Ukrainian, and in Russian there's not plusquamperfect either.
Коли люди бажають порозумітись - вони порозуміються. Не важливо якою мовою говорить кожен з них ❤
wow that was SO interesting! **0** if a person speaks slowly and gives examples - it makes sense then, and it's easier to understand what they talk about, because somehow you can hear a word that reminds you something in your own language, or even some phrases. that was incredible :д
What a fun video. I was mind blown by the meaning of «тиква» in different Slavic languages. And also found another Romanian word that came from Bulgarian (or rather Turkish) - чорапи, it’s pronounced and has the same meaning in Romanian.
No, ''чорапи'' is from Persian which is another Indo-European language. They came though Ottoman Turkish because Ottoman Turkish was full with Arabic and Persian loans. ''Arbuz'' is not a Slavic word either.

I really enjoyed this one, I only know a word or two in each language but it's great to hear how close they are at times, yet far at others. It fascinates me how cognate words shift in meaning too, e.g. the last one, the shuffling of words for melon, pumpkin and watermelon. I learned some Hungarian for work and they have a lot of Slavic loans, including dinnye for melon.
My absolute favourite though is that the Bulgarian word for watch is the same as the Polish word for verb 😁. I'd never have thought to add that to a conlang family but the etymology makes good sense for both meanings!
Awesome episode :)
Много интересно видео! ❤
I speak Ukrainian and Russian. It is very easy for me to understand Bulgarian.
It was so interesting to watch this video! As for Ukrainian it was very easy for me to understand Bulgarian. Aslo a very interesting fact that the word "flour" is similar for Bulgarian and Ukrainian (борошно) while those languages actually are not so close compared to Polish and Ukrainian. At the same time "flour" is similar for Polish and Russian (mąka), while actually Polish and Russians are less close than Polish and Ukrainian and Russian is very close to Bulgarian because majority of the Russian vocabulary derives from Church Slavonic which was created based on the old Bulgarian language.
Bulgarian has ''мука'' which is an archaic word for flour and most of young people don't know it exists in Bulgarian too, because all South Slavic languages (I think) use like we do - ''брашно'' but with stress on ''A'' and not ''O'' like in Bulgarian.
Its close especially when you read it and ad our vowels in it, yeah, Church slavonic...
Only 15% of the Russian vocabulary is derived from the Old Church Slavonic, not the “majority”. 🤦🏻♂️
Approximately the same number of Polish loan words in the Ukrainian language, and Latinisms in Polish.
@@alexstorm2749 Try to learn information about languages using not only russian sources which are based on the propaganda of the imperialist mindset of your country.
An estimated 55% of Russian, incl. vocabulary, syntactic features, etc. goes back to the Church Slavonic language, known as Old Bulgarian. How Ukrainian could be a dialect of Russian if it shares only 62% of common vocabulary, while Bulgarian and Russian share 74% of common vocabulary? Using your logic, does it mean Russian is a dialect of Bulgarian? Why an average Russian doesn't understand Ukrainian if it's just "a dialect"? Try to read something in Bulgarian as a Russian speaker and you would realize that you understand most of the vocabulary intuitively, while this wouldn't work for you so easily with Ukrainian. Let's maintain some level of respect in the communication and try not to diminish any language by calling it "a dialect" just because you have some personal disliking and prejudices about the language.
First thing that come to my mind when I heard 'brashno' was first ever Polish sentence noted on paper in the 1200's: 'daj, ać ja pobruszę, a ty poczywaj' (now, let me grind so you can rest). Which now would look something like 'daj, to ja będę mełł, a ty odpocznij'; where 'mełł' comes from 'mielić' which means 'to grind', but back then apparently there was a verb made from noun used, so something like 'flouring' meaning grinding cereals into flour.
