Russian is closer to Indian than European on an Indo-European scale.

Also Slavs had historical contact with Indo-Iranians (Sarmatians and Scythians) and both language groups are in the Satem group of IE.

Russians, not european slavs.

The most closed related european language to sanskrit are baltic

Poles even consider themselves sarmathians. And these contacts were even before slavs split up
>>
>>77900414
Lol, you don't even have the Iranic g -> h change.

"For example, the spirantisation of Slavic /g/ to /h/ is an areal feature shared by the Czech-Slovak group with both Ukrainian and Sorbian (but not with Polish). This innovation appears to have travelled from east to west, and is sometimes attributed to contact with Scytho-Sarmatian.[2] It is approximately dated to the 12th century in Slovak, the 12th to 13th century in Czech and the 14th century in Upper Sorbian."

It is funny how it is always Croats, Poles and Russkies claiming Iranic ancestry when you lack the basic Iranic sound change.

Through, admittedly, it is likely Ukrainians picked up the change from local Iranics and then just passed it down to the west.

They can consider themselves martians if they want, but the fact is Russian language is basically turko-iranic, despite being classified as a slavic one.

turkic, not turkish. Tatar, basically, and other influences.

how come i can understand 30% of any given russian text
>>
>>77900941
God Russians are so retarded. I understand your "iranic" language with mostly passive exposure.

Retards who think loanwords classify languages astound me. English has more loanwords from French than Russian from Iranic or Turkic, yet nobody classifies it as Romance. Your basic and even non basic vocabulary is slavic, just because you use "kirpič" and "bumaga" does not make you Iranic or Turkic you stupid gopnik.

Tell me a single Turkic or Iranic word in this text.

My translation:

Russian language - one of the East Slavic languages, national language of the Russian nation. It is one of the most widespread languages in the world - sixth from all the world's languages by general number of speakers and eight by number of native speakers. Russian is also the most widespread Slavic language in Europe - geographically and by number of native speakers.

Tajik:

God you are retarded. Did your mom drink bojarašnik when you were young? He said 30 percent in writing, that is quite far from mutual intelligibility. And I actually know a bit of Russian, it is not fucking Iranic or Turkic

Compare Russian and Slovak words (both in latin cause I dont have cyrilic on my pc):

čelovek - človek
leto - leto
zima - zima
voda - voda
brat - brat
sestra - sestra
dom - dom
javľaetsa - javí sa
piť - piť
plavať - plávať
etc.

You have to really be butthurt against "Europe".
>>
>>77901399
Pretty sure there aren't many Slavic ones either. Tatar language sounds very familiar to us, with many common words, while something like Polish or Slovakian might as well be gibberish.
>>
>>77901572
Almost everything of that is similiar to some Slovak words just phrased very differently. "Sounds familiar" what the fuck is that supposed to even mean? To retarded Anglos, Hungarian sounds Slavic. And I highly doubt your ever heard any Slovak.

Stop trolling you gopnik shit and drink your methanol.
>>
>>77901556
I'm not the one who looks butthurt here, m8. You are the one flinging insults. Are you trying to justify learning Russian in college by pretending that we have anything in common with you? If course there are similar words in our languages, they are both Indo-European.

Apparently Skythian(Iranic) loanwords:

sobaka(loanword) - pjos(original Slavic)
topor - sekira
horošij - dobryj
...

Turkic:

den'gi(money)
baška(slang. head) - golova
kamyš(reed)
karandaš(pencil)
kazna(treasury)
kirdyk(~damn!)
irbis(snow leopard)
balda(a stupid)
beljmes(to know nothing)
tajga(taiga)

Slavs/Russians are Indians, that's why noone likes them.
>>
>>77902098
that's Indo-European, not Turkic
>>
>>77901972
Original Turkic meaning:

deñge - measure
başka - to a head(baş(a head) + ka(dat.))
karandaş - a black stone(kara(black) + daş(a stone))
kirdik! - 'we walked in!'(Cumanic shout during the siege of a city)
belmes - 'he/she will know nothing'

Cherrypicked propagandist wordlist I waa talking about. Many of these words are Church Slavonic loans and many have similiar synonyms in Slovak.

But free to believe that you are a churka.
>>
>>77902098
Mongolic languages have the most Altaic vocabulary desu
>>
>>77901874
Paбoтa - robota
Чac - čas (but means time in Slovak)
Утpo - jitro (archaic Czech)
Heдeлa - nedeľa (but means sunday in Slovak)

By the way I haven't studied Russian in college you cretin.

In the case of Russian the relation is very distant. To the point of barely existing.
>>
>>77902962
this level of delusion
>>
>>77903023
Russian has 60 percent lexical similiarity to Slovak (shared word roots, not same form).
https://www.google.sk/amp/s/elms.wordpress.com/2008/03/04/lexical-distance-among-languages-of-europe/amp/

Russian is very Slavic, far more than English is Germanic, like it or not.
