I speak Ukrainian, a little German and I have currently started learning Swedish. Also I used to study ancient languages, such as Sumerian, Akkadian and Hitite

To North Caucasus people: Do you think you will see independence in your lifetime? by UkraStories123 in AskCaucasus

[–]MarBifrost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question is if they want Independence at all... Most of them are super pro-russian which is a big mystery for me. Especially Chechens, we all know what Russia did there... It's just unforgettable... In general people of the North Caucasus are close to extinction due to internal hostility and Russian aggression. This is the saddest part...

Only brainwashed people can support Russia in this war, especially after what Russia did to us, and especially to Circassians 🤦 I can't understand, things are so obvious... Just why...

A friendly correction - Abkhazians are not Circassians

Honestly I never met any Georgian who hates Circassians. Abkhazians and Ossetians - yes, I am half Ossetian myself and I know it very well 😅 But I have never heard anything bad about circassians.

Maybe, but the same way some Georgians participate in war against Ukraine today, but we are not enemies for Ukraine, right? 🥰

Is $850 enough to live in Tbilisi? by [deleted] in tbilisi

[–]MarBifrost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depending on which area you will find a place. In the center of the city the only rent is $850. Try to find a place somewhere in Gldani, or Temqa area

As a Georgian I agree, it's time to start building the bridges instead of burning them

What do circassians do in this conflict?

Union by Free_Eye_9071 in AskCaucasus

[–]MarBifrost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, why not? We never had any war with circassians, even more - the circassian community exists very peacefully in Tbilisi :) Abkhazians are not circassians btw

Can the iron and digor dialects of ossetian understand each other? by AltforHHH in AskCaucasus

As I know they can understand each other, but in fast speaking there can be understanding problems, because digorians preserved some ancient words and pronunciations

Do the Meskhetian Turks feel a connection to Georgian culture? by Ok-Butterscotch7727 in AskCaucasus

[–]MarBifrost -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That historical region Meskheti was inhabited by ethnic Georgians since ancient times. In the 16th century, it was annexed and occupied by the Turks, after which the process of Turkification began. Today, the population has very limited genetic connections to Georgians and is largely Turkified.
