Hello, I'm Milán. I am from Hungary. I am interested in the languages of siberia, mainly Uralic, Tungusic, Chukotko-Kamchatkan and Yukaghir, also Turkic and Eskaleut a bit. I occasionally contribute to wiktionary. I speak Hungarian natively, English fluently, and I'm learning Ukrainian and Spanish. I have two youtube channels : Interslavia, with songs from all around the world, and Northern Winds, which has songs exclusively from siberia.
- Interslavia: https://www.youtube.com/@interslavia
- Northern Winds: https://www.youtube.com/@northernwindssongs
If for whatever reason you want to talk to me, whether it be about languages, or a youtube video suggestion, or if you have something cool relating to languages, feel free to add me on discord: @interslavia
I also collect coins and banknotes, if you'd like to see that or you'd be interested, you can also add me on discord, and also follow my instagram page related to coins and banknotes: milan.numis
What I do on wiktionary
edit
Basically, I just add a bunch of words from languages not spoken by many people. I added the most words from the Tungusic Even language and the Northern Yukaghir language.
My projects on here:
- Even noun declension tables
- Adding 600+ Even lemmas
- Adding nearly 3000 Northern Yukaghir lemmas and making some templates for it too
- Adding 1800+ Sirenik lemmas
