"Ciekawe pytanie"

Translation: An interesting question

[flootzavut]

And thank you Ukrainian for a cognate to ciekawe!

[LangForThought]

What's the Ukrainian cognate?

[flootzavut]

цікавий :D I knew it looked familiar right away, took a moment to click why, but then I didn't have to look at the hint, which is always nice :)

[LangForThought]

That's good, you just have to remember that it's a "ч" sound in Polish. :P Assuming the Ukrainian is pronounced "tsikavii"

[flootzavut]

Yup, ц in Ukrainian is ts. In my experience, relatively few cognates are exactly the same between languages, but close enough to be an aide memoire, as in this case. Stuff like this is why I love Slavic languages!

Unless they're the ones that are too close and mess you up as a result. :-) "Man" does that to me with Polish and Russian. :-)
