- What do all those bodies of water really mean?
In this episode of Vox Almanac, Phil Edwards travels through the map to define bodies of water.
Find Phil Edwards on Facebook here: / philedwardsinc1
Bodies of water seem simple: but there are a lot of different terms for bodies of water. From well-known terms like ocean, lake, river, and tributary, to more obscure ones like tarn, kettle lake, and firth, these bodies of water shape our world. So put on your geography life jacket and go for a swim in the fantastic world of water.
You'll learn about gulfs, arroyos, fjords, oceans, bays, coves, and man other definitions for bodies of water. We can help you understand them - but you have to explore them.

Why does it feel like I just watched a video plays before a Disneyland ride.
the music
Exactly what I was thinking
the way they talked about the water
Creddz it's the animation style
Wow i wasnt the only one
The video was nice and everything, but who ever scored the music for this deserves a freaking award
If you told bee they'd just used the score from one of the Harry Potter movies, I'd absolutely believe you
That music made it sound way too epic. Haha.
Alex Brinkley I was thinking the same thing
One lake to rule them all
Alex Brinkley
Gives a real Pirates of thr Caribbean/ Indiana Jones production value feel.
Andre Costa Makes you wonder why we dont just call this place Planet Water.
US The Blue Planet (II, release date 29 Oct 2017)
no swamp?
Somebody once told me... swamp is off-limits.
Swamp, marsh, bayou, wetland.
swamp has been drained! no more swamp.
halimceria ...yep. Trump replaced the swamp with a stinking cesspool.
Shrek disapproves
Can you guys do a similar video for pathways? The difference between roads, avenues, streets, boulevards etc.?
The video.
The music.
The editing.
The animation.
The narration.
Ugh. Fcking love this video.
Since you guys hit 3 million, your videos‘ graphics have gotten better, you’ve been posting pretty much every day, but you haven’t made the top vote video yet! Lol. Btw, the music in this video was a bit... epic.
The music is to loud comparing to the narrative. My ear is bleeding.
its epic video though.
Anyone know what the music was called?
My same question: what was the title and artist of the music?
Trevor Matthews
I think they said it at the end. 4:58
It’s either PINNACLE by Daniel Nielsen (ASCAP)
or
FJORD, MYSTIC BALTIC by Christopher Tin (BMI)
swamps or brooks?
MijaMix somebodyoncetoldme
MijaMix brook is one of the "many words" for creek, so it was implicitly mentioned. I do agree that they could have addressed swamps, marshes, bayous, etc...
They mentioned rivers and deltas. Wetlands aren't really bodies of water, reservoir is just a term for a storage of water, and rapid is just a type of river.
I think a swamp has more to do with the life and land around the water than the attributes of the water itself
Mel BROOKS...has nothing to do with water
Never though i would be watching a movie about water
Vox giving me that daily knowledge.
Vox you guys are the a part of the cure of cancer for RUclips
Please keep up the GREAT work
John Smith More like the rotten cancer that ravages RUclips.
John Smith I thought your comment said pure cancer not cure to cancer lol
Only when they're apolitical.
markatl84 It's nice that you assumed that much from my comment. There's a word for that it's called prejudice.
How is talking about water going to cure cancer?
I love the Loch Ness moments, the music just added to the moments
Vox. An informative body of water.

@@sundalongpatpat I can fix that :)
this is by far the best 5 minute video i have watched this year. thanks VOX!
Haslan Roslan mine too.
The music was great, I felt like I was on a journey.
Can't wait to use this information on real life
so people will think I'm smart
yeay me Yea, mine too.
joelabo - That makes no sense.
That was some pretty dramatic music for a vocabulary lesson...
Interesting to hear words that are adapted in dutch that I didn't know of, strait => straat, mere => meer
well the dutch have water around them and they took that knowledge to the English so we borrow the words too.
I live in Norwich and we have like 7 Plains as in wide open streets and we get that from the Dutch or Strangers
Lisa Martens
Dutch, English, German, Afrikaans, Limburgish, Scots, and Frisian are West Germanic languages.
Lisa Martens They're Germanic words left over from Old English the Anglo Saxons spoke pre-1066. More common up North.
even in Portuguese we have similar words: strait is estreito and lagoon is lagoa
That's because Latin-based vocabulary entered the English language.
45 pages of geography book finished by watching a 5 minute video 😂😂😂😂 thanks for helping me for my quiz 😂
thanks vox 😂
Getting Game of Thrones vibes
Ikr
Yup yup.
Fishyy the fish or Lord Of The Rings.
THAT'S THE MEME, MY DUDE
Fishyy the fish Pirates of the Caribbean
I love how you went kayaking just for a couple seconds of footage lol
3 years on and this is still a masterpiece
For anyone curious, first song is Fjord, second is Mystic Baltic, and third is Pinnacle all by Corner Stone Cues
Vox, the channel that reports on global and US events/topics, yet also produces content that you never knew you wanted to see but you always leave satisfied after watching and learning something new. Keep it up, you're one of the only channels I disable adblock on.
what about a bayou !!
Fun fact: water can flow and it can crash, be water my friend.
I'm a freshman in university and majoring in geography. This video TRULY helps me a lot with all the confusions ! Thanks vox !!!!
Graphis, Narrator and especially MUSIC is so great! Keep this going!
The line between "river" and "creek" can be murky (pun intended). Where I grew up, Gales Creek is bigger than the Wilson River, and no one could explain to me why that was the case.
nateslovebug That would be because the creek most likely flooded over time and became larger, but no one updated the name
Stefan Banovski possible. Maybe someone on the internet knows for sure. :)
Ah. So that could be true as well, but that explanation is unnecessary. The Wilson River is quite a bit larger on average, I happened to just be familiar with the points where their sizes overlap.
In general a river is deeper. If flow slows down a creek becomes a series of pools with small drops between them, whereas for a river, the pools are long narrow lines following the channel and slopes between are gentle.
The music in this was phenomenal!
"Fjord" and "Mystic Baltic" by Christopher Chiyan Tin, and also "Pinnacle" by Daniel Jay Nielsen ;)
That was super informational. Thanks Vox.
Damn Vox, where were you with this when I needed it?! Amazingly made video
cool

Looks like you're first, so you get a Crown: 👑

The music, the animation....it all makes it so much better. Besides that, it's a very interesting topic. Well done Vox!
This music is making me feel a rollercoaster of emotions
_"No comment on Monster"_
*shows Loch Ness*
You forgot River
He mentioned river in reference to others, so maybe that's why? Because it was kinda already in there?
Though I wouldn't have minded a specification about what qualifies something as a river.....
Kye Talks They forgot Brook too
and creek
I like how many people are in the comments saying they forgot things they actually mentioned in the video. LOL
3:20 lmao
Two things. 1. Loch Ness is not an inlet that connects to the ocean, which is called a sea loch. It's a freshwater loch. 2. Sticking with Scotland, one could do an equally long video on the Gaelic words for bodies of water: allt, abhainn, sruth, linne fairge, cuan, muir, glumag, caol, bàgh, bùrn, loch, lochan, pow. And this leaves out most of the general terms for water and rain. It's a wet place.
Excellent! I’ve always wondered about the different names, and now I know!
VOX talking about water now
check your water privilege vox
they thirsty
But still no Filthy Frank lore
SJW's will complain that only the privileged bodies of water were mentioned but not the obscure ones
thanks for stating the obvious :D
Be water my friend...
Finally a Fragmovie that's not overproduced and a song I'd actually listen to
Loved this vid so much. Music, graphics, transitions, animations, jokes, narration, description, and information. Well done well done. Loved it loved it.
The whole video is presented fluidly........Bravo Vox!!!!
Fariz Adnan "fluidly" I see what you did thereq
Water great video Vox!
That was incredibly well put together! I was a sailor for years and still ended up learned a thing or two on this! :) Thank you for all the time and effort for this wonderful video... :)
P.s. - You forgot "false rivers"... Thought you did cover a river that changed direction and left behind a body of water which is essentially the same thing... :)
"No comment on the monster" - Vox -
What about bayou
SpmSam and swamp
What about the underground bodies of water?
Makes no sense, but let's just call those "tables".
Parrot Ox aquifers, underground rivers and lakes, permafrost etc.
Arguably not really bodies of water.
Love the Vox Almanac series. Keep it up!
This was like epic and super inspirational, and it is about terms for bodies of water. Never cease to amaze, Vox
Dawson's Ghyll
*All I learned from this is WATER!*
this was awesome!! Continue this series!!
Vox, awesome video! Enjoy your weekend! 💯🙏🙌
I don't think "sea" needs to refer to an inland body of water. The north sea, celtic sea, norwegian sea, greeland sea, arabian sea, etc. are all just subsections of the atlantic/pacific oceans, named mostly based on the lands that surround them. None of these examples (there are more!) are inland at all.
Just make a book already.
That music was so whimsical and grandiose. It made everything seem magical
Thanku @vox for making these 5 mins of video worth watching keep up the good work
Helpful
Nice
Love the music, it's so calming..
The music made this feel so magical, I love it!
I should be in a lecture...
This was very useful thanks
WOW I AM SO IMPRESSED BY THIS CHANNEL I SUBSCRIBED ! I AM SO AMAZED BY YOUR CONTENT AS IT IS MORE OF AN INTELLECTUAL AND EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCE THAT DOES NOT REHASH THE SAME OLD CRAP THAT NINETY PERCENT OF THE OTHER CHANNELS DO ! ! ! !
Vox needs more subscribers and viewers. I love most of their content.
"Southern Ocean" really ? it's the Antarctic Ocean (or Austral Ocean if you really want it)
By the US only, "The Southern Ocean is the 'newest' named ocean. It is recognized by the U.S. Board on Geographic Names" NOAA website.
Tell that to the IHO in Monaco 😄
Australians call it the Southern Ocean, so do New Zealanders and the Britons. And so is anyone calling it the Austral Ocean, they're just saying it in latin.
One of the first!!!
🏆
Wow! The animation is awesome for a video about water. And the music too. Great job Vox!!
Excellent video! The sound is epic! This video is too underrated!

Why haven't you guys included squirt water?
AYANDA VILAKAZI it's pee

I like this vibe from vox. Actually informative and interesting. Next time maybe some more history and etymology too?
Vox animations are always amazing!
Wanna know a body of water they didn't mention? Houston!! 🤣 Too soon? Okay bye.
Lol, the joke will only land if you use correct spelling smh.
As a Houstonian...
Lol
While on the subject of Houston...bayou was not mentioned in this video
@@deaf-tomcat but there is no land
Good boy
MrMeTech Thanks dad
The music makes a geography video almost into a tour of a fantastical world of water
The music is great! I hope you have more videos like this!
Well that was a weird video (still amazing though)
Damn I'm early !!!
"These are just some?" WTF. There are more?!
Nice video, Vox!
I must start exploring some bodies of water now!
Last
Ben Dover lies
can vox start another second channel for their politically fueled videos, and put their mini-docs on their main channel? Looking at their viewership, you can see that a lot of people love their informative videos, and then there is a whole host of people that get annoyed and stop watching their videos all together after political episodes
Colin Craig I second this, ‘‘tis true.
Just don't watch the Political Videos...😂 Its not that hard because all the people are different...
Love your videos you guys are the best!
the music felt like i was playing an rpg game in exploration mode...thank you for bringing this knowledge into our lives vox!
Vox can make anything entertaining i swear. Got me watching videos about water and i'm still intrigued lol. Well constructed, doesn't drag on for forever and is straight to the point. Doing God's work yet still so underrated.
So cool, thanks for the video vox!
Thank you, an excellent roundup of terms, always there will be some missed out.
Now I can get an A in fluvial geography! Thank you Vox.
Endlessly impressive, Vox. Love the GOT-style!
Very Informative, especially mapping makes it easier to understand
(Applauses) Best short-documentary on defining the type of bodies of water. I can't wait to share this information with friends (I think for now I'll share it on Facebook)
When is the comment requested video coming out Vox?
Loving this one.. Well, it is safe to say that he is my favorite in Vox
The example of sea in the beginning - Caspian Sea, which is not a sea in fact, it is a lake. Great job, Vox!👍🏻
legitimately the best youtube channel
The graphics and quality on this video are spot-on
