Genealogy / Polish looks? [1462]

You really can't tell the difference between Slavic people and Germanic/Celtic people?

Not always.Could you tell me principal diffirence?Definitely this is not colour of eyes and hair,not height or weight,
not width of weist or shoulders and not rough form of head.Because in all European nations it could come in variety
of forms.For example would you tell just by facial features who of them is German and who is a Slavic person?
One I started to watch German and Austrian series movies and just movies I quickly understood that majority of
Germans and Austrians are quite far from classical Nordic type.

Interesting,how German Nazies would classify people according to their haplogroups?For example plenty of Germans,Austrians and Norwegians have R1a haplogroup.Whoud they treat them as inferior for this?

1/3 of Austrians also have such haplogroups as G,E3b and J which are claimed to be non Indo-European in origin.Only 1/4 of Austrians have R1b and 5% I1a.

s1.zetaboards.com/anthroscape/topic/4918955/1/
Does it mean only they would constitute competent part of society only?But Nazies never engaged in real science.Their slogan was: "every German is an Arian and good, every Slav is a wicked animal and bad".

There's body language, for one thing, there's glance and eye contact for another, there's response to facial gazing etc,, not to mention the way certain ethnicities move around.

So, do you want to tell any of these features makes vast majority of Poles remarkeably close to Germanics?

There is also a "strange" (I don't mean to offend) facial structure amongst some east Russians and Ukrainians that almost appears to be Mongoloid (take a look at Putin), with very high and pronounced cheekbones and a very east-Asian look to them.

Putin look Mongoloid?That's news for me.I've thought he could be compared to Nothern European of Finnish guy.One of the most prominent features of Mongoloids is jet black thick and coarse hair.And black hair is dominant.While Putin is blond and blue-eyed.

Most of non-Indo-European influence in Russians and Ukrainians (which is not too large) is coming not from Mongols but from Finno-Hungarian and Turic people.Rather it is West Asian than East Asian.Also on territory of Ukraine and Southern Russia lived Scithians and Sarmatians who believed to be Iranian speaking Indo-European people.Huns crossed these lands before Slavs lived there.But most of mixing happened during times of USSR when people from Central Asia and Caucasus region came to live in Ukraine and Russia.Quite interesting Ukraine is claimed to have plenty of people with J2 haplogroup which is claimed to be "Greco-Roman,Anatolian,Mesopotamian".This haplogroup is practically absent in Poles.Anceint Greeks had extensive colonies in Southern Ukraine and Russian along Black Sea coast since 7-th century BC.

In google: black see greek colonies

Kievan Rus' and Moscow principality had extensive connections with Bizantium Empire and married Greek people.For example Ioann the Terrible was once married on Sofia Paleologina.

What are the typical facial features of Polish men/women and how do they compare to those of other Slavic people?

It's quite difficult to do since head form among Russians,Ukrainians,Poles etc, could be of different types,there is plenty of people
among these nations who have either rounded and elongated head and face form,pronounced or less pronunced cheekbones etc.
So its rather subtle features which makes most of difference and its hard to explain.In pseudo-scientific terms Poles have more commonly
West Baltid and Cromagnoid type while Ukrainians have more Gorid,Baltid Proper and North Pontid types.Russians have more East Baltid
types.I think that on average Ukraine and Russia have slightly more West Asian and Asian influence.Poles are very homogenous people by
European standards.Ukrainian woman have smoother features than Polish on average.But still there is plenty of similar types.

"The other approximately 30 percent of Poles have mostly the R1b and I1 haplogroups. R1b is very common among other European populations including Western Europeans like Welsh, Scots, French, Spaniards, northern Italians, etc. I1 is also found in Germany where its frequencies range from 38 to 45 percent, compared to 18 to 25 percent in Poland."

I think it is strongly exagerated.There is no so much visible Germanic/Celtic influence in Poles.They are one of the "purest" Slavic nations.

There is already have been many similar genetic "researches" conducted in Ukraine, for example, with quite strangely "results".So if you looking at genetic researches look for the source and proves.Haplogroup I1 divides in I1a and I1b.Poles have more I1b than I1a (similar to Russians).

s1.zetaboards.com/anthroscape/topic/4918955/1
There is no truthful genetic research conducted by independent Western researches based on thousands of samples which would make statement that Poles are way more closer to Germanics then Eastern Slavic nations.Even contra majority of such researches proves their relatively close proximity.

So take in account in some "researches" it could be exagerated.

Roots and a language could be two different things. Also even if tribes 2000 years were close knitted they went their own ways and developed for the most part their own distinctive culture.

Which exactly tribes do you mean?If you talk about Slavic tribes there was no any mention of them before 6-th century AD.And based on language proximity and other data I think that predecessors of modern Poles and modern Ukrainians completely separated no more then 1200 years ago.What is not terribly long term.But even after that significant parts of Ukraine were under Polish rule for 500 years, there was lot of intermixing,cultural exchange,etc.

Distinct culture is a good thing.When people develope their distinct cultures it allows to make cultural exchange later and benefit each other.
Many Poles claim that they admire with some Russian writers,composers.And contra.

Trees in Slavic languages have gender for a certain.And willow as you guessed it correct is of femenine gender.
Dub and Kl'on in Russian are on contrary masculine.
Genders are present in other European languages as well.French is one more example.German has three genders
as well.So English is rather exception.Six cases?Possibly.But Polish and Ukrainian have seven.

How about structural similarities, while we're on the subject

Polish,Ukrainian and Russian all have tree genders: male,female and neuter.Three tenses: future,past and present.Polish and Ukrainian have seven cases: Nominative,Genitive,Dative,Accusative,Instrumental,Locative and Vocative.Russian regularly have six main cases: Nominative,Genitive,Dative,Accusative,Instrumental and Prepositional, though some additional cases including Locative,Partitive and Vocative are mentioned.Some of them are rarely used or incomplete.But particular word ending in cases between those languages are often different though there is some similarities.For example word beer in dative case will sound the same in three languages: Szklanka piwa (pol.), Bokal pywa (ukr.), Bokal Piwa (rus.)

the normal word in Russian for horse is łoszad' and for dog -- sobaka.

Russian doesn't use ł sound. Only L. But kon' and pios are still regulary used in Russian.

An intriguing thread, guys, by all means keep it going! How about structural similarities, while we're on the subject:-)

Could you explain what do you mean under startural similarities?What is your native language and why you are interested
in Slavic languages?If you want you could write a personal message to me.Will see how I could help to you.

Language Studies have proven that Slovak is more closely related to Polish than Russian. It's no surprise that all these words and similarities to each other.

I didn't say it's definitive.Though take as example such seemingly ancient words as:

English - Polish - Russian - Slovak

Donkey - Osioł - Osiol - Somár
Alder - Olcha - Olcha - Jelša
Badger - Borsuk - Barsuk - Jazvec
Spring - Wiosna - Wiesna - Jar

"The Slovak language arises from the language of the Slovene (i.e. the Slavic inhabitants of Great Moravia, present-day Hungary, Slovenia and Slavonia) in the form of several Slovak dialects, after the Magyars (Hungarians) have destroyed Great Moravia (c.907), settled in present-day Hungary, separated the West from the South Slavs, and temporarily subjugated southern parts of Slovakia (most of the remaining Slovakia will become part of Hungary until the end of the 11th century). In the 10th century, the Slovak dialects are already divided in the three present-day groups (Western, Central and Eastern Slovak dialects)."

No connection to Polish is mentioned.

Poles listened to Slovak and understand quite a lot then it should be easy to do...

few similarities.

Don't need fancy studies, just listen to Slovak. When I do, I understand it, when I listen to Russian I don't understand it, simples. The OP doesn't understand that the language similarity very much depends on syntax, grammar, pronunciation as well as vocabulary.

Or you could post similarities between Polish and Slovak grammar,syntax,pronounciation etc.Of course I listened to Slovak.I could understand quite a lot of Polish but quite a little of Slovak.Even though I could understand lot of Polish trough Ukrainian it doesn't help me to understand lot of Slovak.There exist much of difference exactly in pronounciation and grammar.Even between Polish and Slovak.

originally distant than Polish and Russian.

Life / Why are Polish so obsessed with Russia [46]

Personally,I prefer cyrilic alphabet for reading.Latin alphabet is too vertically oriented.Cyrilic letters are wider
and easier to read.And yes,they use smaller amount of characters to describe some sound.

Probably, even tho they have that weird cyrillic alphabet too

This is modern Polish alphabet wich non-suitable for Polish language,cyrilic for Ukrainian works much better.
For example: When Poles use four caracters "szcz", Ukrainians use only one - "щ". Poles use two caracters - "ja", "ju","sz",

while Ukrainians only one "я", "ю", "ш".So which alphabet takes it longer to write?

And Polaks are more similar to Czechs and Slovaks than Russians, why don't you focus on these countries instead?

Maybe these countries are just not populous enough to focus on them?Ethnic Czech + Slovacs who live in their homeland countries are
probobly no more numerous than 10 mln. While ethnic Poles in Poland are close to 35 mln.People are prone to compare something equal
in size.Poland and Ukraine is probably more adequate comparison.

I meanif anyone who would have a reason to hateRussian, it would be the Ukrainians. They were hurt much more than Polaks by them -- Stalins famine for instance

We have to remark here that Stalin was not Russian.He spoke Russian with hard accent all his life.Neither was Lazar Kaganovich.

I wonder,why people then are inclined to care about their relatives more than about rest of people?Doesn't it have to do something with genetic closeness of people?

And our topic is Ukrainian-Polish (similar words). What would be your contribution to this?

Ukrainian has at least 4.000 words borrowed from Polish.Do you want me to list them here?
Here is a short list:

I'd love to see a good film, true to history, about Kmelnytsky uprising

"Ogniem i mieczem" based on true history?Do not make me laugh.For those who are interested in true history
there is documentary movie genre.Movies like O&M are not designed for those who are looking for a true history
movies.This is typical Hollywood blockbaster with good and bad guys.

Look at Germans who have dealt with their nasty history frankly and openly and now have the strongest state in Europe.

Polish - Ukrainian relations were not exactly similar to those of history with Nazies.Atrocities were mutual to a larger extent and I do not

see a sense to concentrate on it.Currently relations between Poland and Ukraine are vulnerable.Lets to fix it fist.
