I am Belarusian and I can understand Ukrainian language well. They are indeed mutually intelligible, though maybe at first you have to pay closer attention to what is being said or reading is a bit slower. Overall, one gets used to another language very fast so understanding it doesn't require any special effort. Thank you for using our national flag ♥

I am Belarusian, and my wife is Ukrainian. We use Belarusian or Ukrainian in written form (in chats, etc.), but in spoken form, we use something in between. It's difficult to use proper pronunciation when everything else, except the pronunciation, is almost the same. I also mostly use the Latin script for Belarusian, but I use the Cyrillic script for Ukrainian on a daily basis. However, I use the Cyrillic script for the Belarusian language in official documents.

the letter G does not actually exist in Belarusian Latin, simply because such a sound does not exist in the language. it can only be used for foreign words. in the Belarusian language h is always used instead of g. there is no meaning in a letter for which there is no sound, just like Щ. but it was worth coming up with a letter for the sound Дз (dz) (which are in the Belarusian language, but not, for example, in Russian or Ukrainian)

For me as a Pole it was really a big "wow" when I listened to couple of videos in Belarussian (e.g. on Belsat); it is so similar to Polish and I understood 70-80%... I would assess it as the most intelligible langueage for a Pole, equally with Slovak (and maybe even a bit more intelligible). Interestingly Ukrainian, which - from that what I've heard - is so similar to Belarussian, for me as a Pole is significantly less understandable than Belarussian. I would say I understand 30-45% (and I would say similarly as Russian). Greetings to all Belarussians und Ukrainians from Poland.

Btw, Ukrainian also has the sound /ў/ (Ŭ or Ł) but it is not represented as a different letter. In Ukrainian, the letter "в"(v) represents 2 sounds /v/ and /ŭ/. When "в" is written before a consonant or in the end of a word, it should be pronounced as /ŭ/. In any other case, it's just /v/. For example, the name of the capital Kyiv is actually pronounced as /Kyjiŭ/. And the word "вовк"(a wolf) is written as "vovk" but is pronounced as /voŭk/ because after the first "v" there's a vowel and after the second "v" there's a consonant. In the video 8:14 you can hear that the word "čytaŭ" and "čytav" are pronounced the same way, although it is written differently

As far as I know in Belarusian the infinitive form is always ''ць,'' because it's based of the Polish/Serbo-Croatian ''ć'' Belarusian also write it like that but it makes ''ць,'' sound while in Serbo-Croatian and Polish - ''чь'' like how Russian always ''ч'' makes. The difference is only 1 sound because ''ц'' is made of ''тс'' while ''ч'' is ''тш.'' Ukrainian uses South Slavic form ''ти'' except it's pronounced ''ты'' while in South Slavic languages (except Bulgarian and Macedonian) - ''тi''
@dicher3399

Almost. Infinitives in Belarusian initially were “ці” (“ći”) as we can see from the older texts, like “рабіці” (“to do”) instead of “рабіць”. However now such forms are not so common. The only examples that come to mind are “класці” to (“lay”) and ісці (“to go”). I’m not sure why though. Maybe because it’s simply easier to say “рабіць”.

Vialiki dziakuj! That's the best and the most accurate (99%) video I've ever seen regarding Belarus and Belarusian. To your questions - I never experienced any problems understanding Ukrainian, be it spoken or written, same as all Belarusians I know, while Ukrainians might run into difficulties with some Belarusian constructions, happened to me now and then during communication with different Ukrainians in our national languages. When it comes to writing, I received comments from various Ukrainians that it was problematic to get used to written Belarusian at first, while understanding the spoken form was effortless on the contrary. So, my presumption is that the mutual inteligebility between the two is slightly skewed (Belarusians understand Ukrainian slightly better than Ukrainians understand Belarusian), still the languages are highly mutually inteligeable.

Yes, it does. However it is optional and only used in pronouncing, not indicated in writing as ґ. By the way, this rule also applies to the official orthography, but it is often forgotten and only pronounced as г. Ґ is used in native Belarusian words with combinations in -зг, -дзг and -джг, as well as in borrowed words. But any linguist will tell you that no serious person in Belarusian would pronounce, for example, the word program with ґ, so it is usually used in place names and some loanwords like Г(ґ)anak ( porch), Г(ґ)valt (violence), aг[ґ]rest (gooseberry) and so on.

It would be cool to see a comparison of Polish and Belarusian as well. Of course they are not as similar as Belarusian and Ukrainian, but still there are a lot of similarities. For example, Belarusian has a huge number of Polish loanwords, and also in the western regions, especially in Hrodna, some Polish grammatical structures have been adopted. For example, in Hrodna one could sometimes hear in the structure of the future tense from the old people, e.g. I will work, as "я буду рабіў", very close to Polish "ja będę robił" instead of the Belarusian variant "Я буду рабіць". Also in the western regions of Belarus, the verb "to be" was often used, and the grammatical forms "it is" or "that is", while in modern literary Belarusian you don't need "to be" verb. Also in Belarusian the absence of something "няма" is Polish "nie ma". I am not even talking about the closeness of the phonetic component of the languages with the presence of a large number of hushing sounds in both languages. By the way, the Belarusian language also uses the Latin alphabet, and it seems to be quite understandable to Poles.

I've been trying to learn Ukrainian for a while now, because my girlfriend is from Ukraine. Previously I started learning Russian, because she told me, it would be more useful for everyday communication. Coming from German background I somehow had the feeling that Russian was easier to learn. Actually it was not much more difficult than learning English in 5th grade, once you got into the basics. It really gave me the impression that the linguistic system was quite similar. On the other hand Ukrainian vocabulary and grammar are a lot more different from Russian than I initially expected and it still gives me a hard time. I have the feeling that the languages that have been used officially by imperial or colonial territorial powers are also the ones, that are quiet easy to learn, so multicultural populations would be able to communicate easily by a universally applied standard within the sphere of influence of the central government. So Spanish, English or Russian appear like generalized versions of a variety of languages that summarize the outstanding characteristics, that link familiar languages. Like High German is more or less a standardization of many local dialects, too. I'm definitely not an expert in linguistics and I guess, this is a very simplistic and naive evaluation and there is probably a lot more to it than I can grasp, but it seems like an interesting speculation to me. Please correct me, if I'm wrong. Thanks for the video. You have inspired a genuine interest in linguistics in me.

I am sceptical of the hypothesis that easy language will be the language of imperial administration. It implies that state with easiest language will dominate states around. Which is not the case. Moscow in medieval times dominated otters around not because of having easy language, but because it had support from golden horde. And then just imposed own language on everyone else. If your hypothesis was true, there would be some Esperanto-like easy guys who spoke very simple language at some point in history who would dominate the whole world. Imperial language may be easy to learn because the empire had big population and resources to produce language materials. There definitely more resources on learning Russian than materials on learning Ukrainian. Especially, ones that are not in English.

Also thank you for the historical white-red-white (БЧБ - бела-чырвона-белы) flag - it says that you have learnt the history of our countries well. This is very deep analysis: historical reference and detailed explanation. Some of these things I have known recently, but some of these I haven't known at all - for example simple form of imperfective future in Taraškievica - so it very shocking to me see all these here. Great video! It's worth saying that Ukrainian have it's own Latin writing, different from the Belarusian one; we are trying to return vocative case in Belarusian; examples to this video were written in Narkamaŭka, but I believe it would be better to use Taraškievica for it. As for the rest: I have no words. It's so cool! And again some thanks. Thank you for "BelaruSian", but not "BelaRUSSIAN" - Belarusian isn't part of Russian Thank you for such good spelling! And thank you for showing our real history, OUR history, but not from russian's empire prospective. It's worth a lot! And thanks to you more people can know more about Belarus and Belarusians, Ukraine and Ukrainians - this is very important in the war. *Answers to the ending questions* We really can understand each other. This applies to both spoken and written form - I think it's equally easy for me to understand. I have friends from Ukraine and we communicate freely each in their own language (sometimes I even correct their mistakes! :D ). At the very beginning it can sometimes be hard to understand some words but it comes with experience. I easily can watch videos in Ukrainian, write comments in Belarusian and be understood! Also I can find comments in Ukrainian under videos in Belarusian. We can understand each other, so there is no any language berrier between us. P.S. With some training we even can speak and talk in each other's language! E.g. I can say паляниця, митниця, but can't say Укрзалізниця. My Ukrainian friends can say Шчучыншчына, дзьвесьце дзевяноста дзевяць (299), but can't Я ўяўляў немаўлят. For the Belarusian-speaking: паспрабуйце сказаць: «У Іўе ў яе ё я». Удачы, ахах.

Thank you for posting this. Yes, you're right, the languages are pretty close and they're mutually intelligible to great extent. But there's a belief that a Belarusian/Ukrainian speaker can skip any training at all in order to understand Ukrainian/Belarusian without any problems. This is generally not quite true, IMO. One reason was mentioned by you: false friends. There are quite a lot of words in both languages which sound or written very similar, but mean something different (sometimes absolutely different things :) For example: in Ukrainian "тривога лунає", in Belarusian "сцяг лунае" (alarm sounds/flag is waving, resp., would be "трывога гучыць"/"прапор майорить"), смуга/смуга - stripe/fog, drizzle, to name a few. And, ofc. шмат vs шмат :) Some language cliches/expressions are different. This is what's meant by usus. As for me, it was a bit challenging to get used to Ukrainian on TV. They speak quite fast and I barely understood anything :) But eventually I started to understand it just as fine as Belarusian. I think the converse would be true for a Ukrainian. Another funny thing I noticed, many of my Ukrainian friends have difficult time understanding written Belarusian. It looks like I understand them much, much better. Maybe because of kinda pre-training, in fact. Oh yeah, last but not least, I still find it challenging speaking Ukrainian, actually :) It's not so easy to get rid of Belarusian accent. Ukrainian phonotactics is different after all. But still I love Ukrainian very much.

Uktainian is my mother language and I never studied Belarusian but understand anything in it, I can read, listen understanding all save some words sometimes. Therefore I wonder very much that only 84 % of vocabulary coinside.

Probably it's dialectic, but in my Ukrainian speaking environment, the word "shmat/шмат" is using to describe something big(particularly if you are using emotions like ShmAAt/ШмААт) as in Belarusian language. But if you say "shmatochok/шматочок" or "shmatok/шматок" that's mean piece of something small

Thanks for sharing this! I noticed that Hrinchenko's dictionary (1909) gives "шмат" as both "piece" and "many", so I discussed this with my friend from Lviv. He said that "шмат котів" sounds like "пошматовані коти" for him, but in Belarusian "шмат катоў" is the idiomatic translation for "many cats". So I think that "шмат" is a false friend in contemporary Ukrainian and Belarusian. Would "шмат котів" or "шмат міст" sound unusual to you?

@Authentic Linguistics Yes, "шмат котів" and "шмат міст" sounds very unusual for me. That's probably because, in this case, I would rather say "bahato/багато котів/міст" which is literally translating as "many cats". In my environment, we are using the word "шмат" mostly for describing not living things such as resources and food. Like we would say шмат(many)/шматок(piece of) meat or stone.

The video is great. But it is probably too early to say (on 2:37) that Belarusian and Ukrainian are not partially but completely or well intellgible without the previous exposure. It is because today's their level of the mutual intelligibility are not innate and natural. Although Ukrainian and Belarusian are the closest in the lexical similarity (cognates and partial cognates which are without “indirect common origin” and are without so-called “irregular” sound changes in their roots and only in affixes), the contemporary extremely high level of the intelligibility of Belarusian by Ukrainians are explained, obviously by exposure to Russian. Especially it’s true about the spoken Belarusian. It is because some common Ukrainian-Russian-Belarusian cognates sound in Belarusian more like the sound in Russian. So, Belarusian and Russian have word “кот” (cat, or male cat). But Ukrainian has the word “кіт”. Here are enough big difference in sound and it may make intelligibility development slower and its percentage would be something smaller. But even without exposure to Russian, Belarusian would be the most intelligible language to all Ukrainians. But (as some German linguists researched in the text of the Aesop story "The North wind and the Sun"), naturally so- called phonetic and orthographic "Word adaptation surprisal) between different kinds Belarusian and Ukrainian common vocabulary are more distant than between those between Czech and Slovak. Sure, they are less distant than between them from one hand and the Russian or Polish "similar" words on the hand. Still, (according to these linguists) some common vocabulary are more similar written form (concerning Normalized Levenshtein distance as welk as Word adaptationak surprisal) between from Russian and Ukrainian than Belarusian and Ukrainian (Ru "ходить", UA "ходити", but Bel "хадзіць"). According to the German scientists' results, un the natural conditions it would be even something easier and bigger to understand Ukrainian (both in writtencand spoken form) by Belarusians and nit vice-versa. In today's conditions (with knowledge of Russian by both nations) Belarusians withoutany exposure probably understand more easily written Ukrainian than Ukrainians understand written Belarusian. And concerning the spoken Ukrainian and Belarusian the situation is opposite.

The biggest problem with Belarusian for me is not to stumble over their A where I expect O in texts. That's what makes it hard to read fluently. When I see let's say ‘гадзіна’ I may think of it as our ‘га́дина’ (Serpent/Bad person) while it actually was our ‘годи́на’ (Hour). In spoken language it's easier because you hear where the stress is and it helps a lot. As for understanding I don't remember any problems, all you need is to know such often words as ‘apošni’ or ‘mienavita’ 😂

My understanding and command of both Ukrainian and Belarusian is at native or near-native level due to the fact that I was born and raised in West Polesia, where we speak a distinctive micro language - West Polesian, which some linguists consider a dialect of Ukrainian (though if you ask the locals back in the homeland, nobody would ever call their language/dialect Ukrainian). Kudos on such a detailed analysis and showcasing differences and similarities between Belarusian and Ukrainian! And thank you for using the true Belarusian flag. Long live Belarus! Glory to Ukraine!

Unfortunately, the pro-Kremlin regime there only continues the policy of Russification. Живє Білорусь!
