“I luv da ida of lang n words so much” this is kinda like that

Then there is Pokemon, where a tree and an apple pie count as dragons.

Doesn't cheese come from "Kchaesje" or something like that? I don't even use the word dog 😂 I prefer the term "hound"

According to the 2021 Turkish DNA Project (a DNA testing project for Turks), 55% of Turks are of Anatolian indigenous descent, that is, of ancient Greek descent. 15% are of GokTurkic descent, 13.8% are of Balkan descent, another 7% are of Armenian descent; 6.4% are of Iranian descent; 3.6% are of Georgian descent，You are Turkified Greeks

we need a name explain on why you sometimes end sentences with a voweluh

i never EVER see plymouth in a video like this, let alone the term janner. very cool but also a bit of a jumpscare lol

World Wide Web -> Double yoo double yoo double yoo How to shorten a phrase from 3 syllables to 9.

Defeninstation (idk if i spell it right) needs we be shorten

Oregano and margarine are different species in the same genus. And yes, cilantro and coriander come from the same plants coriander is the seeds and cilantro is the leaves.

There's a 4'th Aussie accent, the bogan accent. No video on accents ever covers this variant, but it is distinct from General, Broad, and Cultivated. For examples of it you can reference the "Damo and Darren" animated shorts available on youtube. Most any Australian can point to someone they've met that uses this accent.

All those variations of John are fun, but then where did Jonathan come from?

English is the most romantic Germanic language, and French is the most Germanic Romance language.

Anís is the spanish name of the seed of Pimpinella anisum. Star anise is a reference due to simmilar taste.

The only times Latin Americans care about being called American is when they hear it in reference to the U.S. (and even though only a small minority of Latin Americans care). They don't want to use the word American for themselves...they just don't want people from the U.S. to use it out of sheer pettiness and misinformation. No one from Peru or Mexico or Paraguay expects to be called "American" when travelling. Latin Americans call the Western Hemisphere 'America' because that is what Spain, Portugal, and ESPECIALLY the Catholic Church taught them for the hundreds of years. I am guessing Spain and Portugal and Rome didn't care enough about the West to notice there were two separate continents. They just wanted precious metals and souls. The entire rest of the world did not, and does not, think of N. and S. America as one continent nor do they have a problem with using "American" for someone from the U.S.. For some reason, Latin Americans think only their teachings are correct and the rest of the world needs to bend to their way of thinking.

Pac gets a mention. nice! Also, what about South Shields, they have Sandancer as their demonym

Why is abbreviation such a long word?

Helicopter has been clipped as both 'copter' and 'heli', as well as the modified form 'helo' (pronounced "hee-lo").

The funny thing about "Tungsten" coming from Swedish is that the Swedish name for said element is "Wolfram".

Its funny how social amnesia has taken over societies that do not learn the lessons of history. The real reason women took on the name of the father was to guarantee that the public knew that a child (or children) was (were) not bastards. It was to clearly identify who the father was. And it would make easier proving in court who the father was in probate and inheritance claims. Apparently the world is overrun with so many bastards that it doesn't matter anymore.

"Canuck" being for francophone Canadian has to do with "Canadian" meaning french-canadiens for the majority of Canada's history. You would specify an "anglo" not a "frenco." I am not saying it comes from canadien. Just that the association with french-canadiens comes from when canadien referred specifically to french-canadiens. We didn't call ourselves canucks. Our diminutive for ourselves was "canayien" or "habitant" (for city folks).

Thought it was named after the black man who came up with movies. See how you lied

"Dragons aren't real"?! Tell that to the folks at Komodo.

After all the r*pe in wwII they're definitely related

As any Wulfrunian or Salopian will tell you, Brummagem is pronounced "Brummijum". Usage includes knocking screws into wood.

Paul Hollywood is NOT a scouser.

Constructive comment: I nearly unsubscribed from these videos because once one has noticed the way each sentence ends in that annoying drop, you can't un-notice it! But the interesting content is just enough to keep me entertained enough.

Mint is just cold spicy

In Spanish, the word for morning (manana) is also used to mean tomorrow.

Tica here. There are "middle" names, but they're usually just called as your second name.

Amphitere, Wyverns, Wyrms, and Drake ARE ALL Dragons. What are you talking about?! Dragon is more like an umbrella terms for all type of dragons you just mentioned. Dragons also act like a description of something or someone powerful, like the Chinese Emperors are considered Dragon. A natural force beyond our understanding? Also dragon. A celebrated individual(s) who achieve greatness? Also a dragon. If you look at the Medieval and Ancient descriptions of dragons, they'll be varied, from multiheaded with only two legs, to a Wyrm DRAGON with no limbs at all. I suggest you act wisely and see other channels with a better explanation about dragon before making this video. And don't force the modern DnD definition of which is "dragon" and which is not! P.S. correction: misstyping.

Ethiopia was never Italian colony, although it was occupied by Italy for 5 years.

I've known the difference between true dragons and wyverns since I was 15 (40+ years). I've also played a LOT of Skyrim, but I never spotted that they were wyverns. I guess I was too immersed‽ Not much later I learned the differences between ki-rin/ki-lin (transliteration is fiddly) and lóng. Ki-rin are kind of an unicorn offshoot of lóng.

Birds and pterosaurs are wyverns. Change my mind. Snakes are wyrms, pollywogs are lindworms.

nice argument, however i have already portrayed you as a sad tedious long word vehicle while i have portrayed myself as a happy brilliant short word vehicle

Isn't the classification for like heraldry or something? Sure it's neat for a setting where that kind of variety exists (like The Witcher, though most draconids in The Witcher are the two-legs-two-wings kind and only one of them is called wyvern), but in settings like asoiaf or The Elder Scrolls where only one type of draconic creature exists, it feels like a missed opportunity to not call it a dragon. (The Chinese dragon is obviously not a name from European heraldic terminology even if the others might be (I don't know, it's what I heard but haven't been able to verify), it's just "something snakey and powerful from another culture so we'll call it a dragon and specify which culture")

Ptera - Wing Pterodactyl - Winged Finger Archeopteryx - Winged birdlike dinosaur Helicopter - Helical wing Pterygium - Wing like membrane growth on eye.

We don’t have Pennies anymore in Canada. They were phased out due to inflation a few years ago. Everything is either round up or down in price to compensate. We do have loonies and toonies though for our dollar coins. We still have dimes and nickels like our southern neighbours. Although post pandemic, people tend not to carry cash, since we were encouraged to pay contactlessly, so this all seems even more quaint. I can’t remember the last time that I even held a coin.

I would wonder what terms are for half-dragons (official, not proprietary, so not mining D&D terminology, for instance), and whether there are different types (more human, more draconic, winged or not, etc.).

You undermine yourself when you admit "dragon" is an overarching term. It basically applies to any large snaky reptile thing regardless of wings or legs. The distinction only really arises with heraldry which needs to accurately represent imagery with set words. And I've always found your pronunciation of wyvern as "wie vern" weird given most medial v words have short vowels: "wiv ern". Compare "quiver", "shiver", "tavern", etc.

I think your beard looks perfectly fine

I'm glad you're getting roasted in the comments for being a silly goose

The Dutch are proud of their accent!

Tolkien described Dragons as Great Worms, of two kinds: - the fire-drakes, and the cold-drakes. He said many could fly. So there's another can of worms for you :-)
