Why do they call their country "fatherland" instead of motherland like normal people?

>muh etymology
nigger it doesn't matter where the word comes from, what matters and what everyone cares about is the word's meaning. madre patria literally translates to motherland and the words could come from the ancient southern greenlandic word for dead fish that their meaning wouldn't change.

Why is Russia motherland then?
Mother Russia, ZAAA RODINAA! etc.

Because the word "Rodina" is feminine

They already know how horrible german women are

Daddy issues. They're OG bastards of Europeans.

We have the word očetnjava which means fatherland but is feminine.

don't they use heimat?
we use domovina (homeland) or, more rarely, djedovina (grandfatherland)

This is why grammatical gender is retarded

djedovina is also feminine lmao

Because heimat is just a general place and can apply to anything from your village to your planet.

huh

because boys are better than girls :3

>he is a native speaker of a "language" without genders

otadžbina da sam sasvim iskren s tobom

za mene, to je mati hrvatska

Russians and Poles also use the word "otchizna/ojczyzna" that is feminine, but means literally "fatherland".

r8

za mene to je kralj i otadzbina-Jugoslavija

"Otechestvo" ("Oтeчecтвo") - Fatherland.
"Rodina" ("Poдинa") - Motherland.

We use Patrie, which means fatherland as well.
Because the lands that gave birth to you belonged to your fathers
I guess

when the motherland and fatherland go to war is it a domestic dispute?

It's more like "birth-ia". Neither parent is mentioned.

Latvian is not your language mr Ivanovs

mr Johnson's toilet ain't gonna clean itself mr kowalski.

>He doesnt call his country "parentland"
Pathetic

No. They say 'la mère patrie'

We don't say la Mère Patrie, we just say la Patrie
