h₁ is the neutral h₂ is the a-colored h₃ is the o-colored H = h₁ or h₂ or h₃ (we don’t know which one)

Could you not make the same argument for violent urges, implying playing violent video games is legally correct, but not “morally correct” since it’s letting violent urges thrive? Or for kinks like sadomasochism, or consensual non-consent? Also, who says that the green box is preferable to the yellow one? I’m not a therapist, but my understanding is that when you have something bothering you suppressing it forever is generally not good. Maybe if you are a pedophile going from loli to abusing real children is a real slippery slope, but how do we know that it’s not the other way around: that a pedophile who keeps completely suppressing their desires is just bound to crack eventually and try to hurt a real child? Psychology is complex, we need real data to find out which of the two left boxes is actually preferable.

the fact you referenced neu! in that spreadsheet

English wet is an o-grade causative *uod-ie- with Germanic i-umlaut.

0:36 Where did that L come from though?

One of my favourite quotes ever "WOAH WOAH WOAH, DON'T PUT THAT THROUGH GRIMM'S LAW"

Gif is not jif because it is translated into most other languages as /gif/ If GIF is not a property of English language but the whole world, then it should conform to be easy to identify and pronounce

Being stupid in your whole life.

You should put this in CCC3

Came for the linguistics, stayed for the cladististics.

Giggles in Hungarian.

Tired: where does the "singular they" come from Wired: was it always accompanied by the "singular are"?

I love the lizard alpha male weapon triangle!

0:41 omg Loona hiiiiii <3 0:49 I think he is the same guy as losercity - that dude is a jerk! Comprehensive_Ice135 is the best and greatest and simpiest Loona simp!

you are the greatest channel ever

First off those runes are NOT norse, they are Anglo-Saxon futhorc. And second, what was with Hail looking like a capital N and Need looking like a lowercase t? Shame.

But what about the boypreggers!!1!

go Σmale

Every single second I was sitting there thinking what the heck 10/10 why

What does the dark empath think about this though

Be born a male after Gen Z?

Betas are the ONLY people who think about "alphas"

4:35 True Alpha behavior. Keep it up, king 👑👑👑

Mexican watchers at 2:58: "Ah, yes, it's all coming together". 4:47 just confirms my point. P.D.: "verga" in Spanish is a vulgar word refered to penis. "Vergas" would be the plural form, and Mexicans are very creative with how to use it nowadays.

yea but why are you using zhengzhang reconstruction and not baxter sagart

why the f*ck is it so over complicated?

Here’s my top 10: 10. Pahawh Hmong 9. Hmong language 8. Periodic table 7. Click consonant 6. Nasal consonant 5. Voiced velar nasal 4. Duodecimal 3. International Phonetic Alphabet 2. Voiceless dental and alveolar lateral fricatives 1. Extensions to the International Phonetic Alphabet

0:50 I get that you're being sarcastic, but that's actually quite misleading as people will think that Proto-Indo-European marks the beginning of human speech for that people group.

I’m not sure if I hate or love this EDIT - I have gotten further into the video and I am less sure whether I love or hate this

Thank you for your community service🙏🏻🙏🏻

6:39 This is one of the best things to understand about languages. No languages are “more complicated”, any complication arises to express ideas more efficiently

I learnt today that GIF stands for graphics interchange format. I learnt also that I now have an extremely valid reason to pronounce it with a hard g. gif with a hard g is literally just the first sound of each word comprising it

The presentation was very nice, thanks for the lesson I liked the drag part, it showed how evolution of a word could cause such a vast variaties of words just in one language by borrowing from cousin languages. I wished there was ipa, but it was still very readable, so thanks for adding some sort of phonetic transcription, it helped a lot.

I thought this was gonna be a meme video where you edited the videos to complete each other's sentences or smth, but this is cool too. 👍

Inventer of "h1, h2, h3" be like: "let's make up letters that never existed so we can make up more cognates out of nowhere"

Thanks, instead of trying to explain all this to people I'll just send them this video next time

8:28 For those unaware, "John Johnson" was the fake name used by Guy Fawx during his plot to blow up king Charles II. That mask is called a "Guy Fawx" mask.

So your point is, when a language has insane allophonic variation (like in English), then phonemic transcription is useless. Well, it's not really a problem of the IPA, rather, it's a problem of phonology as a whole. Also, narrow transcription doesn't have to be as narrow as you can possibly make it. I could transcribe caught as [kʰɔːt], and it still would be understood that it might also be [kʰɔʔ], or [kɔt̚], or pretty much anything that at least a little resembles the pronunciation of caught. Narrow transcription doesn't have to be 100% narrow. Besides, the IPA was made for linguists who study the language. It was made for people who know what phonemes and allophones are, and where to look to find out what a symbol means. Dictionaries (which are usually made for non-linguists) use IPA transcription, for some reason, but blame dictionaries, not the IPA.

1:45 the burst of air used for plosives is.... more forceful than in other languages?? something being uvular requires more air to be used??

oh no another brown haired 20 something year old linguist,, they're multiplying

Once in a life time!!
