It's not a tank top, but a wife beater.
As a german, yes this is exactly how every single one of us looks like
As a North-German I say: *Cursed*
As a person born in Bavaria I'm happy to see the flag on a Drew video :)
Funfact about grammatical genders: It's not like the German fork is a woman, the woman is just in the same grammatical category as a fork. These categories actually had a deeper meaning in Proto-Indoeuropean like 8000 years ago, but novadays it's quite esotheric why x is that and y is that. What is important is that these objects DO NOT have a Gender the way people have. Nobody speaking a gendered language was ever like "the sun is a boy/girl?", that's just language learners.
Ok. But what if your are a weirdo who wants to name an object like a ship,car or a mansion that you own? Wouldn't you use a more feminine sounding one for the feminine, male one for masculine and whatever for neutral/neuter?
English used to have grammatical gender just like German and other Indo-European languages, but lost it in the shift from Old English to Middle English. It is thought that with Saxons and Norse and Norman French all struggling to understand one another, it was easier to drop grammatical gender altogether.
I think it is unfortunate that the word “gender” has become a substitute for “sex” in English. I have always said that words have gender and people have sex. Alas, that’s not the way it is any more, and it is too late to change back. 🤷🏼♀️
@@alexandrub8786
Ship (the word) is neuter in German and yet people have a tendency to give female names to them in both English and German speaking areas. I don't know, something something lonely seamen wife replacement.
Yep all indian languages have genders assigned with words. Sanskrit has ♀️♂️and neutral
Chair in Hindi has a ♀️ connotation.
the words just have pronouns
As a non native English speaker it made me feel happy to see Drew search what adverb were

It is literally in the word, adjective for a verb.
same, funny is i know more rules in english than in mine native Ukrainian and russian

Not only that but Drew also called them 'Romantic'. That's a compliment, I suppose

As a Brit I do admit that we like to do a bit of trolling.
Napoleon’s short, some dumb language rules, carrots make you see better, and of course:
inventing the Imperial system, the name soccer and the mm/dd/yyyy format, giving them to America, switching to the better option then making fun of them for it
As a brit I can confirm this is true
As a french i can confirm we are better
Well... you are still driving on the left, unlike the US
Americans try to defend themselves about how Britain made up these things. But it's not about who made them up, but who still uses them.
Britain still uses the Imperial system sometimes, and some Brits do say soccer and use MDY like its the international standard when it isn't. But not everyone though.
What at 1:51?

In French, the X is pronounced « GZ » or « QZ » (or a mix of the two) as for Xylophone, it’s pronounced Gzilofone (don’t forget to don’t pronounce the « e » as an « i ». )
You must not pronounce the two letters differently, it’s not G zilofone.
Exactement. The "X" and "Z" lettres sound exactly the same
Do ya really think that someone cares about how you pronounce words in French? lmao 🥰🥰

I just learned how messed up first day of the week is. The Americas are solidly team Sunday, Europe and Oceania realize Monday is the first, and Asia and Africa are both conflicted. (No data for Greenland)
Freakin' Greenland. It's the Switzerland of Data charts!
In mother Greenland weekday is weekday
As an American (California) I always thought Monday was first day of week, because we complain monday being the start of the week (work and school), and are happy when it's the "weekends" (saturday and sunday) because we don't do those things on those days
As a European, no.
I'm with Europe. My fellow Americans are wrong about this. Monday is obviously the first day of the week.
Drew: "it's amazing I got through high school tbh"
also Drew: *looks up what is an adverb*
I mean, those two things go together pretty well, actually, they're not contradictory at all
As someone who is learning German, i can confirm “ß” sounds like an “S”, such as is “groß”, which means big or tall.
Grooss
großtractor
As someone learning French, big/tall is gros
@@anshbarhate2791 As a french, it never means "tall", it's either "big" or "fat".

The princess dog thing do be true. During a shift at work taking wildlife rescue calls, had a tough burly bloke yelling "PRINCESS" at the top of his lungs because the dog was trying to get to a flying fox which could have given it rabies

A good reality example was literally in my German class we had to write a text about climate friendly travelling and one girl wrote the word: Verbesserungsmöglichkeiten which literally means room for improvement
that's kinda boring since it only consists of two words. Ever heard of the Bundesausbildungsförderungsgesetz or the Aufmerksamkeitsdefizit-Hyperaktivitätsstörung? These are also commonly used
As a german, that doesn't sound bad at all. Pretty common word

Genders of objects (at least in slavic languages) depend on the letter which the word ends with. Also normal people's weeks end with Sunday.

3:50 in my part of germany (bavaria), if the test was announced you have to write a similar one when you are not sick anymore, but you have to provide a doctors note to proof that you were actually sick and not just wanted more time to study. If it was unannounced, there wouldn't be any consequences, you'd just have a grade less which isn't that big of a deal as in the end your average grade counta

1:13 One thing to know is in Switzerland we don't use the "doppel s". We in fact do not even have it on our Keyboard.
2:10 French is an example, spending years and years learning accents, when and where to use them. And then find out that they don't use accents when they text. Or any time that what they're writing isn't official for that matter
No it's not systematic. Usually when writing on a computer or by hand, I (at least) use the accents. When texting we don't because they are hard to access, but the autocorrect does it for us. I find it rare to see texts without the accents.
@@noefillon1749 Oh? I'm from Canada and have always seen the accents everywhere. Them elitist France French people message me saying that I'm inferior and worthless because I'm a lesser being for being Canadian French, while meanwhile not using accents at all and confusing homophones on a consistant basis, this has happened dozens upon dozens of times, mind you.
could just be bad luck tho, idk
@@thedragonofcanada6659 But you "French" Canadians ARE inferior.
Just kidding.
Anyway a lot of French people don't master the French language at all. I don't really know for French Canadians though except that the youth tend to put English words everywhere (btw I am currently in Montréal, QC and have been for 2 weeks now).
@@noefillon1749 yes accents are more complicated to use when we send short messages, it is true that they are harder to access and the autocorrect doesn't always do it for us ... but if I type on my computer i use the accents except if i am abroad and i don't find them on the keyboard
@@noefillon1749 Oh nice! Welcome to the country! I'm Ontarian so I don't know about Québequois culture, but where I am it's either you speak French or you speak English, yes loanwords do happen but they're often frowned upon. Once got told off for saying "La 'slush' est très épaisse, et elle pèse une tonne", instead of "Le Gadoue pèse une tonne". I had never even heard of that word before, and seeing it every year for 6 months made not hearing it nigh impossible so I thought.
My mom's birthday is also 4/20. She was born in 1969. The day I realized this was simultaneously the best and worst moment of my teenage life.
My grandma had a Chihuahua named princess, and she was the cutest and quietest dog I know to this day. Sadly, the dog had to be put to sleep. She wasn't even that old😢

There are two reasons for Germany going for coal over nuclear:
A) Corruption (that one's been going on for a while)
B) Well, Russia
So yeah. I don't like the decision either but I don't think either issue is going anywhere. Would be great if we could just speed up on renewables but politics.

Monday is the first day of the week, legally, technically and civically, in most countries around the world. But some do Sunday, some do Saturday and one country does Friday.
08:20
People from here where Saturday is the first day of the week: I AM FOUR PARALLEL UNIVERSES AHEAD OF YOU
1:58 In Russian, you can't usually spot a grammar mistake when somebody is speaking, because there's no specific order for the words in the sentence. But in the written form, punctuation, spelling and stylesation kick off...
3:47 during a quick break during Phys Ed. teacher got mad at me for asking to use the bathroom 💀
Much of the world actually starts the week on Monday, which makes a lot more sense!
In most places, the week starts on Monday, making Sunday both the last day of the weekend and of the week
"It literally means ss-
Germany, not again!"
Lol Drew!
An adjective describes a noun, an adverb describes a verb or an adjective.
Example:
1. She's admiring the beautiful bells. (adjective, describes noun)
2. The bells chimed beautifully. (adverb, describes verb)
3. The bells looked beautifully shiny. (adverb, describes adjective)

In Dutch we also have the gender thing but you dont really think about the words as gendered, you just have a number of articles to put in front and it doesnt refer to gender at all. Just that those articles are connected woth male or female words
same in French
My understanding is that weekend refers to either end of the week. Sunday starts the week and Saturday ends the week, ie either side or either end of the week.
7:11 touhou meme found in the wild

8:25 in the middle east Sunday is actually the first day of the school week and Friday is the first part of the weekend
The reason why I assume is because obligatery congregational prayers happen on Fridays
0:54 Peak anti meme
If your obsessed with yodeling, list to the song Hocus Pocus, by the Dutch band Focus. It also happens to be a 70’s hard rock song with flute, whistling, and scatting. Pls listen 🤯

Well I am mad at the Romans for what they did to the Celts and also still mad at the Italian nation.
If you are wondering why I am still mad at the Romans it is because of the fact that in my ethnic blood the peoples in my blood happen to have fought and raided the Romans.

Until Drew serves justice for the war crime he has committed!
I see it like if you're filling the bottle, then it's half full. If you're emptying the bottle, it's half empty. I think asking if bottle (or glass) is half empty or half full is like asking if 10 is much or not.
Or you go the troll route and say it's always full because there's air in the "empty" part
ß is actually pronounced like an s and that tripped the hell out of me when I first found out
The week starts on Sunday and finishes on Saturday. These days are at each end of the week. They are the weekends.
1:19 Wait, so it never was the SS it was always the ß
On the whole weekend thing, it’s like a lot of bread. There’s an end piece on both sides. I’m not sure what’s hard about that. I mean seriously, do you put both bookends on the same side? No you sandwich the books between both ends.
In Germany the week starts at monday! I think the US is the exception here.
Most people think of Spanish, French, and German when they here the term 'Gendered Language,' but Hindi/Urdu, Punjabi, and most other from the languages from the Indian subcontinent also have gender.
Most Indo-European languages do, even Old English had genders... in a way, it's English that's the odd one out in the family

an adverb is like an abjective, but they are right after a verb.

Almost every language has genders on their words
This is why alot of people like the ones on latin America get angry when someone calls them "latinx"
60% of languages do not have grammatical genders
Latinx is ridiculous. Why would anyone want to have is ethnicity rhyme with Kleenex? 🙄
People need to learn the difference between physical sex and grammatical gender. They are not the same thing at all.
Actually, its just a little over a fourth of the langs. There was a tom Scott on thay iirc
@@kitchaos1118 don't trust Tom Scott on languages, he's terrible at it.
