Talk:East Slavic languages - Definition

Абсолютная чушь и бред.Русский язык и беларусский(являющийся диалектом русского)происходят из древнерусского языка. Украинский "язык" является адаптацией татаро-монголами польского. Enough revanchism, gentlemen. Try not to let your ethnic prejudices show, pro or anti Ukraine. СТЫДНО!!!!

Documentation! If you wish to remove facts, please show that they are not facts! Factually, Muscovy was renamed "Rossiya" in 1713; this caused communication betweeen the Muscovite rulers and their ambassadors due to resistance in European capitals! Genyo 03:35, 14 Aug 2004 (UTC)

That is ridiculous info. Marcus2 22:04, 18 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Please respond with facts and documentation, not opinions on Wikipedia, thank you! Genyo 02:27, 19 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I think the chapter on the history of the literary languages is okay and neutral now, though of course it can still be improved. What is needed is more information on the dialectal history: What features of Russian, Ukrainian and Belarusian can be observed in which texts? Can please someone who has engaged in this discussion now engage in that? --Daniel Buncic 2005-01-06 13:14 CET

I believe the history section, as it involves only two languages out of three, should be moved to the Ruthenian language article. Ghirlandajo 16:52, 6 Jan 2005 (UTC)
All three languages have always been (and still are) mutually intelligible, so that trash about the overwhelming "Ruthenian-Moscovian differences" should be removed for neutrality's sake. Ghirlandajo 16:52, 6 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Sorry, these differences are nowhere classified as "overwhelming". But Ruthenian texts often included so many polonisms that they looked sometimes more like transliterated Polish (with some East Slavic case endings and structure words replacing the Polish ones). This language was indeed hard to understand vor a Moscovian who did not know Polish. I'm not talking about the peasants and their language; they should be treated in the "dialects" section. And of course it was possible for any Ruthenian to make himself understood in Muscovy; nothing contrary is stated on the page. But there were two quite distinct literary standards. Not one, like Russian nationalists usually maintain, and not three, like Belarusian and Ukrainian nationalists usually claim. Western linguists usually speak of Ruthenian and Russian texts.
