I get where you are comming from but I wonder how much this is just about accesibility. If you have no connection to social science, you won’t click a video or read a book and even if, it might be jargon and hard to understand. If you are in STEM, you much rather watch a STEM content creator, even if they made videos about other topics. I see this more analgous to media analysis with a political lense. For example you like the Bee Movie and watch the Wisecrack video about it. It has capitalism in its name and maybe that’s a topic you are interested in but you wouldn’t search for a video about capitalism. But maybe I’m too generous.
A lot of conspiracy narrative is just pointing out things that seem odd and that’s enough evidence, you don’t need a conclusion
That’s why they went extinct

3·15 days agoI’m also a native speaker and you said nothing that contradicts what I said. I even elaborated on the difference between auxiliary and content verbs. No one cares about the former.

5·15 days agoThere are many SOV languages, including Japanese and Turkish. In fact, SOV is the most common word order, followed by SVO and after a gap VSO.
The thing about German is that it can be both but the word order isn’t free either, as it is in Latin, but there are rules that aren’t straightforward at first glance. So short sentences often have SVO with a 1:1 translation to English but the more complicated the sentence, the more often you have SOV, especially when you count the content word and not the auxiliary. I can go into more detail how this so called “verb second” works if you want. But I think that that’s where the frustration comes from: easy sentences are intuitive and then – boom – out of the blue it changes.
Also: German is a Western European language so English native speakers are more likely to come into contact with it.

9·15 days agoSo it’s not only us Germans who delay the verb that much. Just be glad you don’t work as an interpreter for Ancient Latin
They were much more diverse back in the days




Are there side characters in fiction with main character syndrome? Sounds like a good concept. They might deserve a spinoff
