Uncle Topher You have done a great job which is so helpful for Taiwanese as an aid on learning English Please keep doing it You're so considerate We whole families all like you Your efforts is appreciated
The "pogey birds"! One of the rare treats in Ranger School, like the blueberry pancakes in Mountain Phase. I'm not sure if it's spelled "pogey" or "pogie" 😅 I guess it doesn't have proper spelling in the dictionary 😂
That military phonetic alphabet is also the aviation alphabet. My military service was in Penghu island 22~24 years ago, and I served in a medical office as unqualified medical officer because only me got university degree in that medical office. So the 200-people troop had to rely on me, the unqualified medical officer, related to their health back then. However, I was not a medical major, I was actually a science and technology major. The previous qualified medical officer whom recruited me into medical office, and the next qualified medical officer came into our troop just two days before I demobilized my troop. The military in Penghu was lack of medical resources actually. However, my interest is actually in aviation field due to my background.
Love this one! Kinda expecting something like this from you after the arrival of M1A2T. And again, you bring it to another level!! Merry Christmas, brother.
Interesting! lot of trivia. XD But I am also very curious about the M1A1. Is it really the "strongest tank on the surface" as reported by Taiwanese media?
Something like the "strongest tank" is very conditional. The M1 Abrams is designed to work alongside weapon systems like artillery and attack helicopters. Germany and South Korea also make really good tanks that could beat an Abrams depending on the terrain and the skill of the crew. A big advantage for the M1 Abrams is there is a lot of available maintenance support.
Great content! Give us more. Native Taiwanese but I’ve been living in the US for 38 years. Other than FUBAR which I heard in some war movie years ago, and the alphabet, I had never heard of the other terms.
I guess the "wire" is refered to the wire used as 鐵絲網 used to build the wall of the base, so "outside of the wire" is telling the idea of "outside of the base", not sure if this supplements.
Interesting content of this episode. And thanks for sharing that English learning application. But I’m wondering what it’ll come out if we speak with British accent? Just for curiosity 😂
Great video! I'm sure you know this, but for those who don't: pilots use the same phonetic alphabet. (I'm an instrument-rated private pilot.) 我相信您知道這一點，但對於那些不知道的人：飛行員使用相同的 Alpha， Bravo，Charlie，等。 （我是儀表級私人飛行員。）
Can you make a video to introduce the canceling culture in States? Not necessarily to share your personal opinion, just about how it became something and when.
Have you watched Good Morning Vietnam? I ROTFL when Robin Williams speaks these sentence fast: "Seeing as how the VP is such a VIP should we keep the PC on the QT because if it leaks to the VC he could end up an MIA and we'll all be put on KP."
Like this video so much! Thank you, Uncle Topher! (Raise hand) I had see a slang "Suiation Normal All Fck Up" (SANFU) Is that ok ask this slang's meaning here? Thank you again.
Fun fact: Learning a foreign language with Duolingo might lead to a deterioration of your mother tongue. The translations of standard answers in the mother tongue are often quite weird. 😂 有趣的是：用Doulingo學習外語可能會造成母語的退化。 母語標準答案的翻譯往往很詭異 😂
I want to know what catenation/liaison speech and weak forms speech are in spoken English. Does it have this too?" The frequent use of catenation/liaison and weak forms in English can significantly hinder non-native speakers' listening comprehension and speaking fluency. This is often because the pronunciation of a word can vary within a sentence due to its surrounding context. Catenation and weak forms can be a real pain for non-native English speakers when it comes to listening and speaking. It's like, you know all the words, but they sound totally different when you put them together in a sentence.
Very true! It's also really dependent on the accent. In the UK "Isn't it?" becomes "Innit?" and in the USA "What are you..." become "Whatcha" (Whatcha eatin? = What are you eating?) Watching different TV shows and movies with different accents (with subtitles) is a good way to practice.
Hello, uncle topher. I am interested in learning about outdoor land navigation skills. I wonder if there is a chance to watch you shoot such videos in the mountains of Taiwan.😂😂
@@actuallyUncleTopher It's from a guy in that marine recon battalion, but not even his Sgt Major could really figure out what that guy was trying to say by that word😂😂

这种塑料的可移动厕所是portable john不是latrine，hit the head是海军和marine说法
美軍基層中有一句「shit rolls downhill」讓我印象深刻，因為在我服役的一年八個月裡也見過太多相同的狀況。
翻譯成半澤直樹的話：部下的功勞歸長官，長官的過失部下扛

Uncle Topher
You have done a great
job which is so helpful
for Taiwanese as an
aid on learning English
Please keep doing it
You're so considerate
We whole families all
like you
Your efforts is appreciated
Thank you! 😃
哈哈哈、台灣當過兵的還蠻多術語可以類比、菜排=butter bar，還有通訊兵訓練ABCD..也是照搬美軍 Alpha, bravo, charli, delta...
“Pogey Bait”……No Pogey Bait in the US Army Ranger School….expect during the Breaks or while AirAssult Mission in Florida Phase.
The "pogey birds"! One of the rare treats in Ranger School, like the blueberry pancakes in Mountain Phase. I'm not sure if it's spelled "pogey" or "pogie" 😅 I guess it doesn't have proper spelling in the dictionary 😂
本來很嚴肅很認真看影片，5:48忍不住大笑~
Xmas 🍔
This is a fun video! Maybe one day I will find a way to slyly slide one of these terms into a casual conversation. 😀
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. Merry X-mas!
聽說中國最怕的不是 "M1A2" 坦克，而是 "海馬斯" 空戰系統。不過中國軍內系統，內鬥的很厲害。但是我還是想說 : 美國將從川普上台後，將從小學到中學開始，加強灌輸 “共產主義" 是如何邪惡的知識，那麼我們台灣教育部，是否也要學習美國一樣，教導學生這些思想 ? 畢竟我們也是民主國家。
因為海馬斯理論最遠射程比台灣海峽還長，等於可以直接對中國軍港攻擊。
絕對要！
更正一下 海馬斯是地對地的多管火箭系統，也能發射戰術飛彈
在台灣就能發射並殲滅在中國港口集結上船的中國登陸部
海馬斯空戰系統😂😂
海馬斯是地對地火力，可以裝火箭或飛彈。
台灣很需要大範圍地對地武器，台灣只需假設中國是個只有福建、廣東、江西、浙江的國度，只要毀掉這四個省的軍事基地、機場、各種交通要道與港口，中國就很難成功佔領台灣。
最有趣的一集，其實可以出本書整理完整軍事用語
《阿兜仔教你當兵怎麼說話》
In the navy, there is another word to express "yes," which is "aye," as in "aye aye, sir."
各行各業的專業用語，真的很有趣。
這集內容真棒👍

台灣當兵才沒在管你民間專長，有缺把人補進去就是了😅
Love that you threw in a little Branch rivalry teasing in there 😂 I see you with the crayon sandwich hahaha. Thank you for your service sir.

Merry Xmas, Uncle Topher! Thanks for an interesting glimpse into the wild American military slang. Looking forward to more of your videos in 2025!
Merry Christmas , Young Uncle

Thank you! Merry Christmas!
Butter Bar ->菜排
Interesting topic! Congrats on having sponsorship from ELSA Speak. These slang sounded familiar while watching the TV series 'SEAL Team'. HAHA
Thanks!

台灣國防部應該請你到部隊教士兵美國軍事專業用語
Thanks for sharing! Learned a lot of professional terms.
You're welcome!😁
很有趣，感謝分享！
Thank you, Uncle Topher. It is so interesting and fun. I really enjoyed it.
Those slangs are very informative to me. Thank you for sharing this. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Nice topic!! maybe more slang from your hometown?
Thanks for sharing those very interesting slang terms.
我一直以為FUBAR是德語原來是英文難怪厄本在德文字典裡找不到
Good one !!!
Thanks ✌️
Merry Christmas my good man!
2:05 每次看到海軍陸戰隊吃蠟筆的梗都覺得很好笑～希望下次能做各種不同軍種的刻板印象梗
很有趣的題材~
👍👍👍太有趣了，能聽懂別人的特殊用語，像進入了一個不同的世界😁😁😁

do you know how long it took prozzie to go from 0 to 100k subscribers you got there easily and only took 45 videos damn that’s crazy good luck
Thanks, 😅 I'm really surprised by how fast the channel has grown
Hi, Captain.
Hi! 😁
😊😊😊I listen to EN everday. It's a piece of cake.

Hooah sounds like “好啊” in Taiwanese!😊
1000 hamburgers in an hour!!!
😂 I love hamburgers!
might come in handy when reinforcement arrives, oorah
We got episode 2 coming Hooah? 😁 The first time I heard Hooah was from the Black Hawk down film, used by the Rangers.
I learned some of them from the “Captain Cat” story book and “Age of empires” 😂
Love the Abrams uncle topher! Our M60 having some new partners
I learned "Fubar" from Saving Private Ryan.😅
The AI translator done an almost perfect job.
Hey; Topher, Army football just won a game, 35 to 14, big wins! Fun fact, it is first time in 134 years 😉
美國叔叔聖誕佳節快樂！
Merry Christmas!
when will uncle topher show us his Chinese ?
My Chinese is really bad 😅

yes! exactly

Good question! I think ELSA responds best to a neutral American accent so even a Texas accent might score low 😅

Have you watched Good Morning Vietnam? I ROTFL when Robin Williams speaks these sentence fast: "Seeing as how the VP is such a VIP should we keep the PC on the QT because if it leaks to the VC he could end up an MIA and we'll all be put on KP."
😂 the US military loves to use acronyms
😂😂😂 I'm going to find that scene!
VP = vice president = 副總統
VIP = very important person = 貴賓
PC = press conference = 記者會
QT = quiet = 秘而不宣
VC = Viet Cong = 越共
MIA = missing in action = 戰地失蹤人員
KP = kitchen patrol = 伙房打雜士兵
yes , sir ! roger that , sir !
Time to “Turn Two”. Merry Christmas ( Mike Charlie)
我當兵的時候也有Barrack Party...叫做黃埔大地震，把所有內務跟服裝(Personal Belongings & Uniform) 丟在連集合場，做安全檢查😢 WTF!
Interesting! Hooah!
Aren't you supposed to fly home for Christmas? Are you good to go, captain?
Not going back to the US this year😅
Blue falcon = friendly fire? haha
Yes, it does! 🤣
Like this video so much!
Thank you, Uncle Topher!
(Raise hand)
I had see a slang "Suiation Normal All Fck Up" (SANFU)
Is that ok ask this slang's meaning here?
Thank you again.
That's also common slang! 😁 Maybe I should make a part 2?😅
hooah😂
slang so cool I need more.😚
Just realised what the title FUBAR meant for the Netflix series! 😂

Love it! HUA!
I remember being so excited when I got my promotion to specialist, thinking that my days of having to do all the crap was done.
我的英文要重修了
台灣很多當過兵的,經驗都是掃地掃落葉拔草做資料等等沒意義的事情
好奇國外軍人應該也有很多雜事要做,畢竟事情就在那邊
想要看到多講國外當兵日常的影片
when you have friends that's in marines or army, you're most likely gonna understand some of the slangs 🤣
"Hooah"跟台語裡的"好"(Ok, good) 音還蠻接近的 😀
Teach us some British slangs uncle Trop
😂 Sorry I don't really know much British slang 😅
看起來真不錯 😅不知道我小孩用不用
技術！ 拆彈技術！
Oh that's what Blue Falcon means? no wonder some people in Taiwan call themselves Blue Falcon, it all make sense now
😂
The Blue Bird (French: L'Oiseau bleu) is a 1908 play by Belgian playwright and poet Maurice Maeterlinck.
糟糕，看完正部片還是沒理解你想讓我理解的那句話😂
阿嬤看完空中英語教室也是一樣，有看沒有懂😅
