*Alarm*
God help any of you people who had to learn Engish
as a second language.
Some of the grammar spelling and rules
we have a f*cking stupid.
Now, I've never been particularly good at spelling,
but how can you blame me?
When some of our words and grammar are just so ridiculous.
I think more people have argued about how to pronounce the word
(text to speech) “Scone”
than there are corrupt politicians on the planet.
Actually, scratch that comparison, it's completely untrue.
Learning how to spell and using grammar properly
is actually quite a difficult feat. At least we don't have three alphabets.
Isn't that right Japan?
I mean, just look at some of these comments from my first video about PewDiePie.
Okay, spelling can be tough,
but you have to at least fucking try. (Where's that censor?)
Wait a minute,
aw, come on! You totally missed the swear, didn't you?
Come on, Krypto, you've been doing a pretty decent job up to now.
But you know, the whole point of the swear bleep is so it sort of masks my swearing so people can't hear it.
Why do I even have you around if you are not even gonna bleep my swears?
Fucking idiot dog. (No censor)
There we go again, no swear bleep!
Don't you look at me like that!
Dumbass dog.
*aggressive dog barking*
Oh god! Alright, calm down.
*swear bleep*
But why did you bleep that?
Tha- that didn't need to be bleeped! Damn it, dog! sort your sh*t out!
Oh, good, you managed to bleep it this time.
J- just keep that up, alright?
Anyway, where was I?
Forgot, uh
Hey Aquaman, what was I talking about again?
I think you were about to go into some
examples about how the English language is very silly and stupid, sir.
Hey you're not my butler what's with all this posh voice and sir shit?
And damnit Krypto you forgot to bleep again!
Let's take a look at some examples then.
B - O - W spells out what?
Well it has all kinds of stupid meanings.
It is either:
A bow, a projectile weapon.
A bow, the front end of a ship.
A bow, as in a type of ribbon.
A bow, as in I bow in respect to you, sir.
Or it could be even the first part of a dog's bark Bow-Wow.
I mean what the hell does Bow-Wow even mean?
And that's only one example of one word that is spelled identically
but has an array of different meanings.
So then we move on to pronounciation.
So how do you pronounce (text to speech) “Scone”?
Is it /skoʊn/ or /skɒn/
Is it /grɒs/ or /græəs/?
Is it /bɒθ/ or /bæəθ/?
And as far as I can tell there is no actual correct way to say either of these words.
It completely depends on where you were brought up or, your family or whatever.
But that hasn't meant it hasn't caused a badrillion arguments.
(Whispering) Don't think that's a number.
Oh and before I forget
Don't think I'll let you people in America off. Oh No.
You bloody Yanks with your different spellings of things that don't actually need to be spelled differently.
Here's a couple of examples:
Coal Ore-Coal Ore
Color
Armore
Armor
Aghing
Aging
Lighter
Liter
And worst of all...
LEGOS
It's LEGO™ Goddamnit not LEGOS.
You don't say “hey look at all those sheeps”.
so why add the needless "s"? [it's not needless, the plural rules are different for the nouns “lego” and “sheep”]
Sounds weird alright.
OK so I know I totally contradicted my past 2 points.
With those 2 points
But you know you get the idea
I know it's still if you're born in England you're gonna spell it this way,
If you're in America you spell it this way.
But it does bleed into all the software that comes over here
so like Microsoft word always corrects our word in the American spellings
and then you get told off for spelling things the American way [change your imput language]
and it's all a bloody mess.
Also, 'LEGO' is actually the 100% correct way of saying it. It is not 'LAY-GOS'. [wrong again]
That's an actual fact. [It doesn't say that in the forum you linked]
So you know what?
In the end our language has evolved so far back from so many different points of origin
that of course we're gonna have such weird differences in our languages.
Sure it'd be nice if everybody spoke the exact same way with the same accent,
and while we're at it why don't we just make us all big gray blobs with no emotion either?
Wait no, that'd be completely and utterly terrible.
Huh, terrible.
Now that is a good word.
Probably my favorite word actually.
Oh, English language I can't stay mad at you for long.
You give me so many ways to describe things that I absolutely hate,
or despise.
I can totally stay mad at you Aquaman.
Fucking prick.
Damnit Krypto.
(Test to speech) Remember to like my obligatory facebook page for all the latest updates on what video I am gonna make next.
This is funny, Aquaman sucks and so does Krypto the super dog and while I'm at it Kiteman is the worst super villan comic history hahaha.
