A cognate would be Yidgha åmuno, amun, but this is disputable.

Worth noting: many use Caesar and Imperator both.

Yarak tb.h

"munn" is actually from "muna" - meaning "egg"

Don't greeks use the word "basileus" for rûm emperors?

"syksy", "sygyzy" and "sügis" are from Proto-Finnic *süksü

Sami "čakča" and "čexxč" are from Proto-Samic *čëkčë

The Proto-Finno-Ugric should be *śükśi or *sükśi , I think.

Nice picture of a canadian lad is he your boyfriend?

Only during specific periods of history.
It means "king" or "chief" in normal use.

>Turks had lire


WHAT

Apperently "tsar" is only used for the Russian tsar.

In Estonian historical use, we called the tsar "keiser" though; as can be seen in an old folk song:

Kiitkeme oma keiseride,
austkeme Aleksanderide,

Means something like:
Let's praise our Emperor (tsar)
Let's honour Alexander

Interesting

inberfaasting

surely it must derive from caesar as well though

Yep, it is.

Both "keiser" and "tsar" are ultimately from Caesar.

French has two words for beer, one with hops (bière) and one without (cervoise - cognate to cervesa/ja/za)

Yeah I know, the Finnish word for that is "imettäjä" which I found funny :D

>цицaч

"imettäjä" is pretty funny aswell :D

>Portuguese has also pinto

Even though this map overstates minority languages, it paints Tallinn and the surrounding area orange. I don't know if they mean Swedish or German, since the city was German-Speaking (a low german dialect) until the late 19th century. It never spoke Swedish.

Painting Hiiumaa/Dagö as orange is somewhat correct though, even though they haven't lived there for a long time now.

The word lunch comes from the Finnish word lounas, signifying both the direction of southwest and the meal had when the sun is in that part of the sky.

who the fuck makes these? ol is in the dictionary but literally no one uses it

same as above, you would use car for tsar and cesar for caeser

>cиcap

I mentioned that many languages use both Caesar and Imperator.
And these maps tend to mark archaic/non-used forms, just to see the extent (or former extent) of a word.

Worth noting: Estonian "vorst" comes from Low German "worst"

In Estonian "voor" exists, but it means an oval ridge formed under glacier ice (there is an English word but I don't know it)

fasz doesn't mean tool

>gora

Eesti is flat, mountains only hills.

Our word for "hill" is "küngas", the only cognates are Livonian "kǖnka" and Izhorian "künkerä".

Mäki is exclusively only a hill in finnish.

Interesting map. Especially hungary. Must have been one hell of a immigration road trip to be in contact with persians.

Хoх

"Mägi" also means "hill", especially when talking about Estonia.

Our biggest hill, 318m; is called "Suur munamägi", which translates to "Big egg mountain" or "Big egg hill"

Why is Turkey always in shit maps about Europe but never the Caucasus?

>Big dick hill

Big dick hill :D:D

Big benis hill :DDDDDDDDDDDDD

Yep, both Estonian and Finnish also have a lot of loanwords from Indo-Iranian.

E.g Finnish "vasara" and Estonian "vasar" are from Indo-Iranian, a cognate is Persian گرز (gurz), meaning "club, mace" and also Sanskrit वज्र (vajra), meaning "thunderbolt", "weapon of indra" + a whole lot of other meanings.

...

>gora
>mountain

In Lithuania and Latvian vasara means summer.

t. expert

>gora
>not mountain

Tunturi (fell), tundra and tanner (ground) are all related too. Tundra and tunturi are loanwords from sami while "tanner" and "tundar" are most likely from the same root word.
Pretty neat.

In Finnish and Estonian, it means "hammer"

The Lithuanian and Latvian "vasara" is unrelated. It is (distantly) related to Russian "vesna" and Latin "ver"

We have a surprising amount of iranian loanwords, which give rise to many crack theories about our origins.

I've heard Ilmari could be connected with Indra
In Udmurt it's Inmar IIRC which feels similar to both

What is the Hungarian word for "100"?

In Estonian it is "sada" and in Finnish "sata", both from Indo-Iranian. (if you know about Indo-European languages there is a split between "satem" and "centum" languages, named after the Avestan and Latin words for "100", respectively, and Indo-Iranian is "satem")
