I've had this video in my drafts since July. Didn't think I'd actually post it, but seeing how people reacted to me telling a story of a Swiss guy saying another country doesn't have real bread because he didn't find the bread he likes, I figured what the hell, potentially only got one more weekend on this app anyway and unfortunately I don't have any linguistics videos saved. But if you like linguistics and are gonna miss my content, you can follow me on my other socials, especially YouTube where I'm gonna dedicate a lot more time to all linguistics stuff! Links in my bio! To make it clear for the ones who might not have realized: This video is satire. Although it does also kind of touch on how language can be arbitrary, including measurement systems. There is nothing natural about the numbers we use to represent temperatures, they're just reference points for our ease of use, things in nature don't naturally exist in units of one degree. Here are some videos with the truth about Americans:@Professor Woody @Professor Woody @Professor Woody
