I'm curious about the Uralic peoples in Russia nobody ever talks about.
What happens in their republics?
How similar are their languages to Finnish and Hungarian respectively?
Daniel Collins
What language is she singing here? Do you have some videos where she's talking?
Well I don't know much about them,never even heard how they speak. Mansy and Khanty are our closest relatives supposedly, but it's kinda relative since we split so long ago. Like you Germans wouldn't understand Punjabi, it's almost the same.
Not sure about Finns though. I know they're closely related to Estonians and can understand each other a bit, not sure how they fare with other Finno-Ugrics.
Mason Bell
>What happens in their republics
Cultural festivals for Uralics, for instance. Other than that just people living their lives, speaking their respective languages. You can't attain higher education in Mari or any other Uralic language in Russia I think, which draws young people to big population centers where some of them, sadly, end up getting Russifiying themselves which is a huge threat to their survival. A lot of Uralic peoples in Russia have already gone extinct, like Volga Finnic Meschera, Muromians and Meryans.

Balto-Finnic languages like Karelian and Ingrian are closest to Finnish, Ob-Ugrian languages are closest to Hungarian.

Jeremiah Robinson
You live in northern states?
Dylan Butler
like every other gooks in central asia, they even write in cyrillic baka
Nicholas Clark
Yeah, it's a shame. They should switch to Latin like Kazakhs intend to.
Jeremiah Harris
whats the difference, they should use their own runes, its probably all gone tho, Ivan is merciless
Joshua Nelson

Oh shit wrong general
Michael Hall
half Finnish ideal. Pure Finns are somewhat inbred and too Mongol
Ryan Wilson
For me personally, it is a very bleak and desolate existence. But my shit genes are mostly to blame for that, not really my country.
Brayden Reed
now imagine shit genes in shit country
Henry Lewis
how true is this?
Charles Cooper
No, the Finnish autism meme is greatly exaggarated. We do have some hopeless outcasts like myself, but the turbonormies that are responsible for our promiscuity rates balance it out.
I'm sorry to hear that, Slovakbro. One day at a time.
Evan Thompson
Full-blooded Finns rarely look like Mongols, unless your threshold for pure Finn is an inbred Mongol.
Isaiah Brown
nah senpai im good,tall, handsome and funny you know, also high IQ (250+++), very humble too good guy
Luke Smith
i'd imagine you would be a nice person to have around just drinking. sipping wine/beer/alcohol.. no chat necessary, just contemplative partner in spirit
Elijah Baker
I'm mediocre in practically every aspect of life, so I can't sympathize.
Weirdly enough, I've always been more comfortable chatting with foreigners than my own countrymen. Probably because we can always talk about our respective countries, whereas with a Finn I'd have to tell about my pitiful life which would put a quick stop to any friendship that might be.
Wyatt Evans
its the anecdotes that keeps the convo fun. there has to be plenty of drunken stories you can tell to other finns and by the time you run out everyone would be drunk and happy
Colton Adams
I don't have any funny drunken stories, I'm a friendless miserable shit.

Jonathan Gutierrez

Easton King
They're cute, but why does every foreign accent in Hungarian sound autistic to me? This includes székely
Anthony Hernandez
How is thos any different from /injun/ (indiginous general)? Why did that fail but this is still happening?
Ian Price

Parker Baker
>there is an American guy who learned Hungarian in literally half a year

pls post puljus
Ian Thompson
They use cyrillic alphabet. They had some hope after the fall of soviet union, but now they will slowly die.
There are more of them than there are samis but they will slowly die under russian government.
Camden Cook
I have some Finnish American relatives on 23andMe, most live in Michigan and wherever Finns have historically settled. Was thinking about contacting one of them to inquire what they know of Finland and how's life, and maybe make a friend on the side.
Alexander Hall
shut up and give me a hug
Daniel Bennett
You mean ?
BULJU :DD

Thomas Allen
Don't give up hope so soon, Volga Finns are more populous than Estonians.
John Baker
We shall see
Josiah Davis
Out of curiosity which one of the following sounds best in your opinion:
youtube.com
I like the Udmurt song most for some reason. Estonian would come as second.
Jackson Gray
There was a lot more in the beginning of last
century
They we're genocided a lot
Blake Rodriguez
They are but they are also very oppressed. My girlfriend went there to study Moksha. She also studied Russian there and the Russian teachers laughed at her for going there to study such a "stupid language".
Joseph Long
Mari is my my all time favorite. Hands down most aesthetic and pleasing Uralic language.
Isaac Walker
Not genocided. The languages will just die as more and more people move to bigger cities and forget their mothertongue.
As current Russian government does not support teaching original languages they will die eventually.
Jackson Lewis
If I don't remember wrong Bolsheviks killed a lot of
Finno-Ugrics in Russia
Charles Garcia
Said earlier ITT that they can't attain higher education in their own languages, which forces them to move to big population centers which might end with them staying there and getting Russified. I want to help them but I can't by myself. I hate feeling this fucking powerless.
Logan Smith
If only we had taken Finnmark, we could fund their own unis with that oil money and save them from extinction.

They are pretty much Hungarian Klamydia.
I still can't not love them.
Robert Wilson
>Finno-Ugric languages
>magic of the North
Ah yes. Where is my reindeer, gotta go buy some vodka before the night falls and frost takes hostage of the land.
>Out of curiosity which one of the following sounds best in your opinion
1. Sami absolute best and top QT
2. Erzya really good
3. Komi nice
Austin Watson
You can't do shit but maybe learn the language,visit them and spread the language.
There are still like only 500 natural inari samis in the world but at least our government is doing something to help them.
There are about a mil or so finno-hungarians living in Russia. They aren't getting any help from anyone though so they will die off eventually this way.
Nolan Baker
Brandon Nguyen
Do most Hungarians see themselves as Finno-ugrics or is it more popular to see themselves as Scythian or Turks or whatever? I have seen some Hungarians and read from the news that their nationalists want to distance themselves from our language family.
James Stewart
Xavier Gomez
Most people accept we're Finno-Ugric, but they also see that our language and ancestors are very similar to Turks so that causes some confusion, and for some individuals, doubt.
Juan Johnson
Myex-gf is hungarian and she says there are people in hungary who absolutely hate this. Like Hungarian is pure hunnik language or something like that.
Also have some more sami:
