Which Slavic language is easiest to learn?

[arcticwolf]

A universal one indeed, good for introduction for us non-Slavs. :naughty2:

Actually that one is in every Slavic language I think.

Now almost every single verb has that many forms.

[Didriksson]

Cool, our grandparents have the same name.

Awesome!

They are easy to distinguish if you have any experience of them.

Yes, it must be. I've heard many interesting variants about how Latvian sounds like - Finnic, French, Slavic, Germanic, Hungarian ect. Once a Finnish lady told that Latvian sounds Saami. hahaha

Here is Latvian, I recorded it specially for you about Poland:

Interesting language, sound unique. Latvian sounds less Slavic than Lithuanian.

Awesome!

It's a cool name. I think I will name a future son to that.

It sounds very unique, IMO. Not like a fully Slavic language at least, as our friend Kalle likes to claim.

Latvian and Scandinavian names are quite similar, for example,
Ingmar - Ingmārs, Ivar - Ivars, Gunnar - Gunārs, Aivar - Aivars, Ylva - Ilva, Signe - Signe, ect. My grandfather is Ivars btw.

This international names ( Germanic origin) - they are not Latvian. Kristina is also not are Latvian name.

A Baltic language with fixed stress on the first syllable, an influence from our Finnic - Livonian ancestors.

They are not international. I've never heard about Russian Ivar, German, Gunnar.Polish Ingmar or French Signe. They are typical for the Baltic region (Baltic + Scandinavian) countries. btw, Latvian and Russian names differ a lot, the same goes to our surnames.
and Kristīne + long ī (ii) not your Russian Kristina.
One example:
Swedish Ingmar - Latvian Ingmārs. Ing + mārs, and Māris/Māra are really typical Latvian names. Māra is of Baltic origin, it's even a name of one of our Baltic deities.

What do you mean by Germanic? They are of Norse origin, not like from Germany.

[Dandelion]

The word 'Germanic' is likely Celtic in origins, meaning something like 'neighbour' or 'foreigner', brought to us via Latin. /offtopic Germans call themselves Deutschen.
But it's true that Frankish names are different from Norse ones.

You got them from your German and Swedish lords .
