    Well, there are still chances of this being in Russian but we need to as someone that is Ukranian

  • @Jayui22

    I'm afraid your guess is as good as mine sir. I'm telling you, it's in Ukrainian, not Russian. Ukrainian is extremely similar to Russian so it's easy for a lot of Russians to understand it, it's just a slight change in accent and a slightly different dictionary. It would help if we knew some actually Ukrainian people so we could ask them.

  • @MarvellousMuffin

    Well, I've got 3 cousins 1 aunt and 1 uncle in Russia and I also asked them they understand a little better than me, they understand no matter the tempo of the song, I can only tell it is in russian so do they.

  • @Jayui22

    I thought that about the g, that it might improve the rhythm and tempo of the song if you use the "ch" sound instead. However, I've actually asked a Russian friend of mine from Moscow he told me that it's Ukrainian. Are you sure that you can understand every word of what they're saying? The cossacks in the video may be Russian but that fellow said the language is most definitely Ukrainian, and this is a Ukrainian song written for Nestor Makhno.

  • @AdeloidHynkel Thats why I like the Cossacks!

  • @MarvellousMuffin

    Yeah I know about the Zaporozhian Cossaks but these are tuman and common cossaks, and I'm sure it Russian, but the pronuanciation of the letter changes because the ryhm and tempo of the song, the "g" sounds like "ja" because of the adjustments they have done to the song for it sounding like a studio version. Believe me, I'm part Russian and All these folk songs and dances are Russian, the Ukranian culture is a little different.

  • @Jayui22

    You can understand it. However, are you sure it is in Russian? Listen carefully to how they pronounce Розпрягайте хлопцi коней. They pronounce the г like a х. Isn't that a feature of Ukrainian? Also, look up Zaporozhian Cossacks. They are cossacks who settled in the Ukraine.

  • @RussBETEP И к чему ты это написал?
