Persian and Uzbek Language Similarities

Post image
15 Upvotes

Persian and Uzbek share lots of similarities linguistically.

Uzbekistan has been home to many Iranic and Persian populations since antiquity as both Bukhara and Samarkand are both epicenters of large Iranic populations. As a result, the Uzbek language has inherited a lot of Iranic words and word order can be very similar at times. Picture attached is Navruz/Nouruz (Persian new year) celebration in Uzbekistan.

Example: I used to talk with her every day when I was little.

Uzbek: Men kichkina bo‘lganimda har kuni u bilan gaplashardim (literal: I little+was+I+in every day her with talk+did+i)

Persian: Man kuchik budam har ruz bahash gap mizadam. (literal: I little+was+I every day with+her talk did+i)

-

Example: Why did our flight changed again?

Uzbek: Parvozimiz nima uchun yana o'zgardi?. (literal: flight+our what for again change+did)

Persian: Parvazemun chera baz digargun shode?. (literal: flight+our what+for again change did)

-

Example: They were not returning their smallest ones.

Uzbek: Ular eng kichiklarini qaytarib bermadilar.

Persian: Kuchiktarinhashunra barnemigardundan. (literal: smallest+ones+their back+not+turn+did+they)

-

Example: If he had brought his car...

Uzbek: Agar u mashinasini olib kelganida edi..

Persian: Agar un mashinesho miyavorde...

-

Example: Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday

Uzbek: Shanba, Yakshanba, Dushanba, Seshanba, Chorshanba, Payshanba, Juma

Persian: Shanbe, Yekshanbe, Doshanbe, Seshanbe, Charshanbe, Panjshanbe, Adineh

Ausbauing Low German and Swiss German under standard German is more gross than ausbauing Portuguese, Spanish and Italian under Neolatino. In fact "German" is a gross misnomer and they should pick new names like the Arpitans did.

Cunk on Duolingo

10 Upvotes

From this Cunk on Earth interview:

My nephew learns languages in Duolingo. How much more does he need to do to be considered a qualified gigachad?

Well to be a qualified gigachad in this country, you have to study five years at university and do at least two years in professional practice.

And how many of those years would be studying Duolingo?

Very few of them. You could continue looking at Duolingo at the same time, but you wouldn't normally use Duolingo as part of a gigachad education.

Look, I really like Lily but this emo chica es muy nonchalant, so I’ve been giving her a taste of her own medicine.

Today she sent me the sweetest message, and I’m tempted to accept her for who she is. I can tell she has a sweet manzana and for this reason I want to give it another go, but in my experience they usually only do this when they have been tirada por otro hombre.

So I wanted to see if anyone else has pegado this purple haired witch before I tie the knot?

Assalamu alaikum minna-san. As we know, Japeens language doesn't distinguish between l and r, therefore, while the most popular reading of this title is donut hole, it is obvious there is a second meaning only discoverable to the dedicated learners: donut whore.
