In Spanish 'avería' still means a specific damage to something, like a car. 'Average' in Spanish is 'promedio', which of course has the same roots as the English word medium and mean.
It was a super fun and fascinating video, as always! The part about the etymology of 'bear' reminded me that the words for bear in Slavic languages came from an expression literary meaning "honey eater".
Pascal, the biggest math what if? What about Niels Henrik Abel, who died of TB at 26? Or Évariste Galois, who died in a duel at 20? Or Srinivasa Ramanujan, who died at 32, unknown cause?
I love to watch these videos, however long they are! However, I must say that I was amazed by how old Gauss had died, so I researched and the year of death is incorrect 😅 It should be 1855, but still an amazing age for that time!
15:10 I wonder if the original version of his wager actually accounted for the fact that Christianity isn't the only religion that exists, which is a massive confounding variable to what's presented as a pretty binary choice. edit: okay I actually got to the part where you read out his wager and he really does present it as a simple binary choice.
21:18 -Hold on didn’t you recently do a whole video about how Anglo-Saxon is falling out of favor with some scholars (had the pleasure of talking to one recently) and is kind of ahistorical and problematic?- -I guess it’s weird to say “English” when the Normans are going to become a ruling class over the English.- Edit: sorry I just remembered this video is a supercut of 5 year old videos.
Best channel on RUclips! The etymology of magic had me hooked. Please never stop this wonderful production!
Thank you! That means a lot!

Interesting! Thanks!
As a person with a bit of mathematical studies at the university level, this is very well presented episode.
Thank you! It's always a bit nerve-wracking to stray out of my humanities comfort zone, so that's good to hear.
@@Alliterative I gave up on mathematics when I realized that I would actually have dedicate my life to it. Modern probability theory was daunting.
It was a super fun and fascinating video, as always!

Thanks! And that’s a fun fact-perhaps also a taboo-avoidance, but also presumably factual!
Great video from a great channel! Love your podcast episode on this as well :)
Thank you! It’s a surprisingly fascinating topic, even if it doesn’t sound interesting at first glance.
Lovely as always, thank you!
FABULOUS THANKYOU !!

Oops! Sorry about that, must have been a typo. 😬 But thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
So I can blame the Belgians when my doctor questions my weight? Wonderful news! Although considering their chocolate, perhaps I always could.
I'm guessing the portrait of Copernicus was done after Osiander did hm dirty.

16:44 These birth and death dates can't be right. Gauss didn't die early, but he didn't live to 108 either.

Yes, you’re quite right. If I was filming it now I would change the language I used. Good catch, I’m glad to know someone’s paying attention!
