    2:53 The historical use of the apostrophe{ της βαρείας ( ` ) } in Greek denoted the rough breathing sound, which has since been lost in modern Greek pronunciation. In ancient Greek, the rough breathing mark (ἁ) indicated an initial "h" sound. Apostrophe was the '"h" sound. We had two apostrophe that we droped.Right to left and left to right. οξείας ( ´ ), της βαρείας ( ` )and I'm not sure what the sound of the first one was.Over time, this sound dropped out of spoken Greek, but when these words were transliterated into Latin and eventually English, the initial "h" sound was retained and changed from the apostrofy to the none Greek letter "h". So, we now say "Ερμής" (Ermis), while you say "Hermes". We say "Ελλάς" (Ellas), while you say "Hellas".etc Heliocentric, Harmonic, Holograph, Hypotenuse, Hysteria, Haplology, Hemorrhage, Heterodox, Hydrogen, Hypnosis, Hypothesis, Hierarchy, Homogeneous, Hematology, Herpetology, Heliograph, Hypothermia, Hippopotamus, Hyperbole, Hydraulics

    • @ChessedGamon
      @ChessedGamon  4 года назад +2

      Mm, sorry if I got the structure wrong, could you show me what the correct structure should be? I had assumed that all subclauses in German ought to be separated by a comma from the rest of the sentence, and that the order in which clauses are placed can be at least somewhat played around with, and in what way does it differ from the French sentence in meaning?
      I was planning on doing a video where I laid out my corrections over the past year, and if you could tell me what I should correct I would appreciate it. Could you also tell me what your expertise in the matter is as well? Considering it's the internet and anyone can comment, I just want to hear where you're coming from.

    • @majorfallacy5926
      @majorfallacy5926 4 года назад +4

      ​@@ChessedGamon Your version is mostly fitting in a response further specifying a question. For example "What are these men doing?" "They're running" "That the man with the blue shirt runs see I, [but what about the man in the red shirt?]". If you just want to say that the man wearing a blue shirt runs, the sentence would be exactly the same as in English: "I see that the man with the blue shirt runs." However I can't think of a sentence where the English structure can't be used in exactly the same way as yours. As a non-linguist I have no idea how I'd formulate a proper rule, I suppose the first structure has a slightly more sarcastic undertone? But this is barely even connotation territory and more that people sometimes arbitrarily shuffle sentences around because they can. Either way you're safe doing it just like in English.
      As for the comma I'm not sure. I think it's because you're starting the sentence with the subclause and I faintly recall my middle school teacher talking about specific rules for "dass-Nebensätze". I might be completely wrong though, I could really use a German for native speakers course^^

    In psych 1 the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis was mentioned when we learned how foreign countries have wildly different psychological phenomena, eg. how eating disorders are considered rare outside of the United States. I think the idea was supported by some self-report tests done on multilinguals. The textbook never mentioned Lojban though-I wish you’dve covered its “results!”

    • @ChessedGamon
      @ChessedGamon  5 лет назад +5

      Electricfishfan As much as I would like to, it would require Lojban to be spoken as a native language by enough people to draw meaningful conclusions from, and that’s going to be difficult to do, simply speaking.
      Another problem with the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis itself is how many variables are involved with the development of a certain people’s mindset. Taking your American obesity example for instance, the US has a satirical amount of farmland along with a massive highway system to transport it nationwide. It would be more likely that the cause of American obesity can be attributed to this quirk of geography. If we want to understand the effects of language on a culture, we’d have to isolate it from an absolute mess of geographic and historical variables, and so, the SWH may never be completely proven or disproven.

  • @wesleywilson5984
    @wesleywilson5984 5 лет назад +4

    Nice introduction! You have a good video style. A few things:
    Your pronunciation of "lojban" comes close, but the "j" makes the sound in the middle of "measure". The English "j" can be achieved through "dj" in lojban, as in "la djan."
    lojban does not really have a grammatical distinction between verbs/nouns/etc. selbri are predicates, that is, connections between subjects (sumti). Putting an article like "lo" or "la" in front of them converts them into sumti, which allows them to be used in other place structures. The place structure of mamta is "x1 is a mother of x2". While the English definition forces me to describe it with a verb "is" the lojban definition "x1 fetsi gi'e rirni x2" has no such pretense.
    There is no need for a glottal stop at the beginning of names if they are preceded by la or doi and if they begin in consonants. "la lojban." with only the stop at the end is perfectly acceptable. However "la .alis." or "coi .bab." both require stops at the front. This is because all words beginning in vowels have stops before them in lojban to prevent the previous word from running into it, and because la and doi are specifically excluded from names unless preceded by a consonant (otherwise the article could be mistaken as part of the name, as is the case with coi).
    Loved the Ithkuil joke btw! u'i

      This video is old by now so I cannot give more detail, but here's an excerpt from the wikipedia page on it:
      "The phonetic form of Lojban gismu (root words) was created algorithmically by searching for sound patterns in words with similar meanings in world languages and by weighting those sound patterns by the number of speakers of those languages. The list of source languages used for the algorithm was limited to the six most widely spoken languages as of 1987-Mandarin, English, Hindi, Spanish, Russian, and Arabic. This resulted in root words being in their phonetic form a relatively equal mixture of English and Mandarin, with lesser influences from the other four."
      Basically it's not indo european because half of its influences weren't.

      There is grammar, yes, but natural languages are built off of convention, and so usually have a lot of exceptions and ambiguity to them. Languages like Lojban try to create a perfectly consistent set of grammatical rules and try to avoid ambiguity, so the result is something structured more like computer code than a human language.

A language of verbs seems like a cool idea but it seems like they seriously half-assed it, otherwise "a bad and ugly mother" would have translated to something like "ruining things - making people feel sick because of how you look - giving birth".
