Are Polish and Russian the same thing, or like descendants???

Polish and Russian?
Of course, Russian and Polish are not the same thing. They belong to the same group of Slavic languages (along with many others), but they are different.

Reply:they're definately not the same thing, they don't use the same alphabet, but there are certainly a lot of similarities.


There's a polish girl in my russian class and she seems to find it a lot easier than me because some of it's similar to her own language. I don't know the history of it or anything but that's my experience on it.

Look, in the world, there are some groups of nations (which very long ago had common history, e.g. are descended from certain group of tribes, nowadays use quite similar languages). One of these groups in Europe is Slavic one which includes, among others: Polish, Czech, Slovak, Ukrainians, Belorussians, Russians, Serbs, Croats, Slovenes. That group contains 3 sub-groups: West- (3 first mentioned nations), East- (3 next) and South- (3 last) Slavic.

So, as you can see, Polish and Russian are both Slavic nations, but that's all. Because of the history of Poland, Polish rather don't like Russians generally.


Eventually, Russians and Polish have common descendans in remote history (just like English and e.g. Swedes).
Reply:NO NO NO
