>>76909933
Yeah, in SC and Bulgarian, baba means an old woman (or an old man in places were Turkish influence is strongest), but in Slovene it means an adult woman, usually when referring to one's long-term partner (moja baba) or a beautiful woman (dobra/huda baba). The Slovene term 'stara baba' for old woman is a pleonasm in the other two South Slavic languages.

>Kupalo je star praznik, ki je poznan večini kultur na svetu, saj je povezan z letnim ciklom. Poletni sončni obrat so praznovale že stare civilizacije, poznan je bil Rimljanom, Grkom in Indoevropejcem. Beseda Kupalo je vseslovanska in jo pod istim ali podobnim imenom poznajo vsi Slovani. Beseda ima več poskusov etimologije. Po mnenju nekaterih Kupalo pomeni kopati se, ker je kopanje v reki bilo vedno del kupalskih obredov. V. Toporov pa je pokazal, da je lahko *koup-ĕti od »goreti, vreti, jeziti se, strastna želja«. Bolgarsko Kupalo pomeni požar[1]. Drugo slovensko ime za sončni obrat je Kresni večer. N. Mikhailov je pokazal, da lahko beseda kres izhaja iz kres v pomenu ogenj ali "kresati se" v pomenu prepir, pretep, kar naj bi se skladalo z lastnostimi slovenskega mitičnega bitja Kresnika, ki se pojavlja na ta večer in se bori z Vedomci, njemu nasprotnimi bitji
>Poleg Jurjevega je Kupalo eden najbolj ohranjenih tradicionalnih praznikov ter hkrati tudi najpomembnejših praznikov v letnem ciklu. Na ta dan doseže sonce svojo najmočnejšo moč, zato predstavlja Kupalo oziroma Kresni večer v slovstveni folklori enega najpomembnejših praznikov. Med Slovani je praznik poznan tudi kot Ivan Kupala[3], v Sloveniji pa kot Ivanje. Na ta dan so poznani kresovi, ki so jih prižigali na vrhu hribov, zato so temu prazniku pravili tudi zgolj "Kres". V slovenski folklori se s tem dnevom povezuje mitološki lik Kresnika, ki se v povedkah bori s Kačjo kraljico ali "krivimi kresnikami". Kresnik je v folklori poznan tudi Hrvatom v Istri in ponekod v Dalmaciji. Na Kupalo so bili poznani tudi obhodi deklet, ki so pele od hiše do hiše kresne pesmi in so bile poznane pod imeni Ladarice ali Kresnice

Really makes you think. I've NEVER heard the name Kupalo before nor have I heard of anyone celebrating it in Slovenia.

Here's your (you)

>>76912269
as a boogar i can not ever understand the difference between words that end in a consonant and words that end in a consonant+j/ь, like - ič and ič, l and lj, š and šj, t and tj.
so when you say "prijatelj" i can't understand how can it possibly sound different than prijatel.

>>76912739
>so when you say "prijatelj" i can't understand how can it possibly sound different than prijatel.

it doesn't

likewise our famous word čmrlj (bumblebee) is actually just čmrl so it's not as impressive as foreigners make it out to be

>>76912739
in the word prijatelj the final "lj" is a palatalized L sound. bulgarian doesn't have this sound, but russian for instance does have it.

in russian a regular L is л and a palatalized L is ль

>>76912965
well yes that much is obvious, im saying that i can't understand the difference between palatalyzed and non-palatalysed consonants unless there's an actual vowel succeeding them.

>>76912908
>it doesn't

it does. prijatel sounds russian, prijatelj is normal.
lj has thick sound, your press and stick out your tongue.

i guess you also can't tell difference between č, ć, dž and đ?

>>76912965
We don't have the dark L either. In fact, here it's sort of a social faux pas if you palatalise your l's cause that points to Serbian/Bosnian/Croatian ancestry and thus a likely poorly assimilated working class Slovenian background.

>>76913039
>ć, dž and đ

No such letters in our language, except dž when transliterating names from your language, such as Medžimurje (would be Medmurje today had it come under Slovenian control).

>>76913139
how do you say "between" then? most slavs say medžu, we say meždu.

>>76913139
it's Međimurje

>>76913200
med, vmes

>>76913039
i rusi imaju to palatalizirano L (Ль u ruskom; Lj u hrvatskom), ali ne zvuči isto kao u hrvatskom jer su rusi mongoli sa sjebanim jezikom.

>>76913225
I know, but since đ is not in our alphabet, we use dž to represent your đ (and no, I have no idea what the distinction between the two is; I did however learn to pronounce ć with some effort, but I still neglect to pronounce it when speaking your language to the extent that I know it). You transliterate some of our words to fit your language to, especially Slovenian surnames ending in -ič. It's pretty funny to read a Croatian newspaper and find the Croatian spelling of a typical Slovenian surname like Kavčić. And it's even funnier when you think of how incredibly minor these distinctions seem to foreigners. Then again, Americans created an entire international meme out of Canadians saying abowt and not abewt.

L and Lj are different letters in our alphabet, they are pronounced differently. we could have chosen l̃ or some other symbol for that sound, but we chose 'lj'. 'lj' isn't l and j next to each other, it's a single letter. it's a little bit more clear in handwritten letters, look on the picture

prijatel without lj actually exists in one of our dialects, this is how it sounds like
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAUbBRNjnM4

and this is how 'prijatelj' sounds like
https://translate.google.hr/?hl=hr#en/hr/friend

>>76913200
među, između

>>76913404
when you pronounce dž, the position of the tongue is very similar to 'č'

and likwise ć is similar do đ

maybe this helps

>>76913455
>'lj' isn't l and j next to each other, it's a single letter. it's a little bit more clear in handwritten letters, look on the picture

It is in Slovenian though. One time an Anglo with apparently some linguistic knowledge tried to pronounce Ljubljana on vocaroo but uttered łubłana (ł being the dark L) instead of ljubljana, and I was actually horrified, as ł is considered a somewhat lewd sound in Slovenian (for class-based reasons I mentioned in a previous post).

>>76913658
thats new for me, i thought you had lj

so you pronounce ljubljana like l-jubl-jana, like ljubav is pronounced l-jubav in this song?

>Potočnik

You do know that that is the most typical Slovenian surname ever? It's a special class of surnames called 'ledinska imena', where people were given surnames based on the geographical features of the land that they worked (Potočnik, Vrtačnik, Slemenšek, Podlesnik...). I had thought that these named could not be natively found in Croatia, but Međimurje was a grey area between the two ethnicities until as late as the 1940s. Btw, the same Hungarian alphabet was in use in Prekmurje until WW2 for the local dialect.

I mean, I'm by no means a "pure" Slovene by ethnicity ("čisti Sloven'c"), and my own surname is ultimately uskok in origin, albeit germanised, I'm just sayin'.

>>76914579
i didnt know that. the only thing i knew about slovenian surnames is that a lot of them end in ič (and not ić).

we also have the surname Potočnjak, like Niko Potočnjak, the guitarist of this band
