in Sweden Benzene is used for the pure Hydrocarbon, and Bensin for the car fuel (wich is amixture)

@@Patrik6920 Same in Romanian, benzen or benzol is the name of the pure hydrocarbon, while benzina is the name of the fuel.

In Latvian as well, gasoline=benzīns, but diesel is the same

Pretty much the same for Finland. Conscription has been the best way to ensure a strong military with a relatively small population.

interestingly, the scary neighbour in the east is officially also an ally.

@@tobyk.4911 only ''officially''

@@tobyk.4911 Since the time of the Persian kings, the greatest (also cultural) threat to Greece has always come from the East. You could also say, "same as it ever was..."

There is desert in Poland too

not the only, probably one of the only ones well known

@@smyro2k It's true

@@garbage2882I think it is the only one considered pure desert, the others are semi-desert areas.

Błędowska desert in Poland is the only desert in the country and also the biggest European desert. The length of the desert is 10 km and its width is 4 km. The area of moving sands is about 33 km2. Currently only 1/3rd of the whole sand layer is covered in sand only. STOP please.

In Norway we say Bensin, pronouncd the exact same way.. but diesel is just plain diesel. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sJanfpmkkpzHkqM.html&ab_channel=RammsteinOfficial

Same in Hungary, we call it benzin too. Although for diesel fuel, we say gázolaj, which means gasoil.

Yeah, there are variations in spelling across the various countries, but they're all based on the most commonly used scientific name for the substance, which is benzene. For example, it's called Benzină in Romanian. The ă at the end is pronounced like a very soft aah.

@@ati847Hah, the way different languages refer to Diesel fuel is weird. Like, in Romanian, we use Diesel to refer exclusively to engines/cars that use that fuel. But the Diesel fuel itself is never called Diesel. it's called Motorină, which is just taking the word for engine (motor) and adding a chemically-sounding suffix at the end.

​@@Vestlys1 in Finland officially "bensiini" but in spoken language usually it's called "bensa". Diesel is just diesel.

In poland its "benzyna"

@@foxy126pl6 in sweden its Bensin

In Latvian petrol is called ''benzīns'', diesel is ''dīzelis'', oil for making those is called ''nafta'' , and every other type of oil (like for cooking) is ''eļļa". It is so strange that in English crude oil and cooking oil has the same name. It's even stranger that in Russian cooking oil and butter has the same name - маслo (maslo).

In Bulgaria is benzin - бензин as well.

benzín for both slovak and czech languages

For Estonian "bens" and "bensiin" :D

Ita: benzina, ger: benzin, swe: bensin

Here on youtube you have Ramstein's "Benzin" (De) and Normaal's "Gin Belasting Gin Benzine Meer" (NL, strongly regional accented) (No Tax No Benzene Anymore, which is a song about carless life)

For fuel we use Polttoaine where poltto = something to burn and aine = substance so roughly translated it is burnable substance.

Fin: bensiini, diesel. In English I'd say "gas" and diesel.

That’s a good explanation. As I said in the video I try to say fuel in my videos when I remember 🎉

Novak je cesto prezime i u hrvatskoj i opcenito na balkanu (barem sto se tice bivse jugoslavije).

I will only add that it means something along the lines of "new one" so it makes sense most people have this name. When people migrated and changed their place of living they became "new one" in the area.

It could be due to somebody missing the fact that it is just f. version of Novák and the fact that women live in general longer than men, so there should be more women with surname Nováková than men with surname Novák.

@@MrToradragon I'd say it would be due to high probability it was made with chat GPT and no real research, and we all know how 'perfect' tool for anything it is:)

there is actually long Á in Czech version, so it's not pronounced 100% the same, but it's very close

it's v dry in the south east of Spain, ie Almeria. it's much wetter in the north west ie Galicia

Don't forget the Seven Years War which was the first global conflict, while the period of the War for Spanish and Austrian succession and the wars between the Dutch and the English also happened between the 30 Years and Seven Years Wat.

I can confirm ❤ benzina in catalan, gasolina in spanish🎉

Oui, cependant nous avons prit l'habitude d'appeller l'essence "SP" pour Sans plomb....

@@anatopioPas tout le monde, je dis toujours "essence" et c'est le cas de beaucoup de personnes autour de moi. Y'a sans doute une composante de génération, il y avait encore du Super en vente quand j'étais petit :p

On orthographie aussi "gazole" pour "gas oil"

@@Tiekorolivieren effet ^^ mais je ne pense pas avoir vu gazole sur une pompe à essence?

... in Lithuania too...

@@oskng Yeah, it's relatively rainy in the Baltic and most of the Nordics too. Just happens a lot of the days are snowfall in the North.

As is Scotland and much of Scandinavia. IIRC, there is concern over submarine land-slides as a result.. There is evidence of massive slides in the past and a resulting tidal wave around the north sea.

Yeah, we got centuries old harbors that are archeological sites that are kilometers, even tens of kilometers inland. Also this keeps on redirecting rives like there's one that was couple hundred years ago big enough to sail with ships that is just a tiny little stream now.

@@dzzope yeah one of the biggest was Storegga slide near to the the coast of Norway about 6200 BCE. I have read about it and it has been a massive happening.

Oh, the nonsens with rising sea levels... In pics on NY and other habours from 100 years ago, the water level is exact the same. No wonder, because ice swims in the water and the level doesn't rise when it melts...

@@flotterotto4491 nobody mentioned rising sea levels. We were talking about how the weight of the ice depresses the land under and how it springs back up. Also.. a picture of a harbour isn't going to show you rising sea levels of a few inches unless the picture includes a measure to show water level and having other other tidal info and probably 100s other variables too.

They are about to massively increase the numbers, so pretty soon there will be no such thing as a choice anymore. Besides, we already have the law of 'total defense duty'. So if there is a conflict they can mobilize everyone between 16-70 years who live in the country. Having military training will just be a bonus then.

That map is outdated. Pretty sure Ukraine is not considering to remove conscription any time soon. Let's hope for a few years, but it's wishful thinking

Bullshit. Spain is a capital of LGBTQ

I suspect in USA the average is brought down by people who can't afford to get proper treatment for health issues. I was surprised to see Ireland has a higher life expectancy than UK, that may be down to a less stressful lifestyle.

@@Phiyedough it's a mix between that and the diet. American food is ultra processed and full of chemicals and antibiotics while in the EU it's strictly regulated.

@@Phiyedough More bluntly it's probably because they just went ahead. The UK is failing.

Also Spain has been world leader in organ donation and numbrr of transplants for the last 32 years. By law everyone is an organ donor unless expresed the contrary on a will or By familiars. The 83% of the population authorises the donation.

Thanks for sharing that explanation. I try to read as many comments as I can 🎉

@@IWrocker Conscription time can have its benefits. You can E.g. get professional qualification and required license to work in the transportation industry, E.g. as a truck driver: "Puolustusvoimat Sotilaskuljettajaksi?" and "Varusmiespalvelus kuljettajana - intistä rekkakuskin ammatti?". And do things like drive a tank on the highway: "Leopard 2 tanks seen on the Hämeenlinna Highway, Finland".

in denmark we say benzin. so pretty close. but then again we're basically family already 😅❤

In French they call diesel gasoil - probably the same origin of the word

Nein, Benzin leitet sich von "Benzol" ab.

The term "benzene" does not go back to Carl Benz, but originally comes from Arabic.

@@DJKLProductions I was just trying to be patriotic.....but one must admit - it's a nice coincidence, isn't it ?

​@DJKLProductions just did a quick google search... from what I've read: Micheal Faraday first discovered it, and in 1833 a german scientist named it benzene which apparently derives from "gum benzoine" ( an arimatic resin) ...so yeah...

@@theoderich1168easy easy ...

What's completely false, btw...

The absolute opposite is true, the north where is more rainy it is very mountainous.

Galicia and Basque country have left the chat to buy sunscreen

*Coastal California yes 👍 inland is very hot and cold extremes

It is not only that, there is a whole mountain range along the north and the predominant winds come from the north so all the humidity and rain stays in the very north, the provinces just south of the mountain range are much more dry even though they don't have mediterranean weather at all.

In Spain we have 'Herrero', that is the Spanish translation of smith, and it is a pretty common surname too

But in Spain the most common surnames are the ones ending in Z, that are "son of" López (Lope's son), Fernández (Fernando's son), Rodríguez (Rodrigo's son)

Are they called Cortijos there too? (the small villages on the mountains) That's how they are called in Granada and Jaén

@@barawen_who Don't remember, it was almost 40 years ago. But Almeria isnt all that far from Granada, 80 kms maybe, so probably similar name.

Yes, the words for a profession or position in a community are the source for most very common names, thats the same in Germany as in Britain (and from there to the USA). There are lots of them, and they just translate between the languages (also in other countries). I guess that was the easiest way people identified themself back in the old days. A first name - usually something christian - plus the profession to avoid confusion.

some other examples (but surely not as many as Müller, Meier/Mayer and Schmidt/Schmitt) are Weber, Schneider (=taylor), Bäcker/Becker (=baker), Schreiner, Tischler (=carpenter), Schuster / Schuhmacher/Schumacher/Schumann (=shoemaker) - all of which are derived from the names of professions.

in italian too, we say benzina

Nobody in Poland calls diesel fuel "diesel"! We use the word "dizel" to call a diesel engine. But the fuel itself is mostly "ropa" or "olej napędowy".

@@amjan Saying "nobody" is a bit of a stretch. By far, the most common one I hear is Diesel. When it comes to 'dizel'. It doesn't appear in dictionary of Polish language except for being an example of pronunciation (Słownik Języka Polskiego, PWN). If it's a slang it's not very common the term 'ropniak' is the most known. We have 3 official names 'silnik Diesla', 'silnik wysokoprężny', 'silnik o zapłonie samoczynnym' and i would stick with that.

Essence. "en" is a nasalized vowel.

If all ice melts, we czechs have it closer to sea. I see no problem.

So far I can only find 70 mtr of sea level rising, where are your numbers coming from?

@@JacobBax From common sense. Based on how many ice/snow are there in the world that barelly would make any change if you consider the whole surface size of the oceans (since they are one gigantic connected water surface, so there is no reason to separate them). It's basicly like as if you had a bathtub of water the nyou were puttining one or two soup bowl of water in there, which barelly would make any change.

In Italy is Fabbri or Ferrari

That's exacly where I learned it🔥🔥🔥

And the famous cemetary - that isn't a real cemetary. :)

Excellent fact, that’s so interesting 🎉 It’s convincing too, because before knowing that, I would’ve assumed those movies were filmed on site in New Mexico 😎 Nowadays a lot of American movies aren’t filmed in California, but rather in New Mexico and sometimes Georgia (because of great tax benefits and variable landscapes, etc.)

@@IWrocker Yes, it looks very convincing, doesn't it. I was also surprised when I heard this. I'm a big fan of the Sergio Leone movies, and also Eastwood in general. When Leone offered him to play the role of the man without name in "A Fistful of Dollars", he was first reluctant. A number of well known Hollywood actors had been asked before - but no great money, working in the desert in Spain with shabby hotels without A/C (it was the 1960s Spain), and the questionable reputation of Italian movies back then, all that made them reject the job. But Eastwood (who was only moderatly famous then) read the script and was convinced it could work. Same as Van Cleef and a few other. And the rest is history.... Yes, its peculiar how the film industry sometimes works. Everything is much more money oriented than it appears to the outside, leading to sometimes weird decisions. You - as a Australia fan - have probably heard that some of the "Hollywood movies" today are actually made in Australia. The government there tries to atract productions with hefty subsidies, and they have established quite a film industry over the years. Australia of all places - on the other side of the planet. But it seems to be profitably.
