Let's break down why each letter might be considered unnecessary:
C: The letter C is often pronounced as "K" (e.g., "cat," "come"), making it seem redundant. However, it also has a "S" sound (e.g., "cent," "city") and a "SH" sound (e.g., "ocean"). These different pronunciations contribute to the unique sounds of English words.
X: The letter X is often used as a combination of sounds (e.g., "ex," "box," "taxi"). While these sounds could be represented by other letter combinations, X adds a distinctive element to the language.
Q: The letter Q is almost always followed by the letter "U" (e.g., "queen," "quiet"). While this combination could be represented differently, Q adds a unique sound and spelling pattern to English words.
In conclusion, while it's possible to imagine English without C, X, and Q, their presence adds complexity, diversity, and character to the language. They contribute to the unique sounds and spellings of English words, making it the rich and expressive language that it is.
"Don't skip ahead..."
You're not my real father, you can't tell me what to do!
I predict that one day the editors and writers trapped in Simon's Basement Dungeon will be free and overthrow their dungeon master entirely.
Seize the means of video production
"This is not peace. It is an armistice for 20 years."... "20 years and 64 days later, Germany invaded Poland, beginning World War 2." Ooofff
Throughout history no one has more of a right to say "I told you so" then that guy 🤣🤣🤣
I predict that Simon will rule all of TH-cam some day.
Na... we're in the days of latter Simonism. New talking heads on the channels, so tired he's sitting down, only 1/10 videos becomes about communism. Slow burn desimonification.
The cats would disagree.
@@leeanneb7178The Simon-cat synthesis will be unstoppable!
The Whistle Empire. The official uniform is a pair of Vessis
In about ten years it will be SimonTube.
Worth noting that Mendeleev was arranging the elements by number of valence electrons before the discovery of the electron.
If you focus on Simon's face, it looks like he's not wearing pants(trousers for the English folk) 😂
I was just about to say the same thing.
I had to look twice lol (and up north in the uk we call em pants, only old people call em trousers around here)
@@jeffknott1975 As a Geordie, I also call them pants.
Knickerbockers
Rocking that 2020, "work from home," style.
I had to double take a few times as it looked like simon wasnt wearing pants today lol
Simons skin color matching trousers.
"Its a bold move Cotton, lets see if it pays off"
Charles Babbage should NOT be credited with designing the first modern computer. He was obsessed with building calculators. It was Ada Lovelace who pointed out to him how to make it do so much more. She even wrote a programme for it. Ada alone should be credited with this great leap.
They can be wrong and not lose their job
DAMN....for a split second, I thought Simon wasn't wearing pants 😂😂😂😂
HG Wells predicting World War and atomic bombs in War in the Air. Though HG Wells atomic bomb was hand held and used radium and was slower burning, melting its way through the crust to create volcanoes
And on the same year (1908) Anatole France published _Penguin Island_ where modern civilization is obliterated by n*clear te**o*ism, with mushroom clouds and all.
I predict all news will be presented by ai versions of Simon in every language known.
98% for 24 hours is insanely good
Yes it is, and I would say it's 70-80% for the seven day forecast. They have some massive supercomputers working on it and they just keep getting better.
Did you use to run another channel, Biographics ?
I was so confused when i saw someone esle there
Glad i finally found you
I don't get why people were shocked that WWII happened, a defeated veteran wrote a book about starting the war years before the event happened.
In a way, Boyle was right about being able to transmute living beings. It's possible to code cells into becoming whatever kind of cells you happen to need, which we're just barely scratching the surface of. It's not alchemy, but it's still progress made.
Also George Orwell's 1984
Thanks for sharing.
I predict that in the future, Simon will have pants 😂
My favorite old-timey future prediction was traveling to the moon via a projectile shot out if a huge cannon 😂
I think that was Jules Verne? Although he's another one that got some of his predictions right.
Correct predictions about the first mission to the Moon by Jules Verne:
1. It would be launched from Florida.
2. There would be political competition between Florida and Texas.
3. It would carry a three man crew.
4. The spacecraft was cylindro-conical.
5. The spacecraft was built mostly from aluminium.
6. It would use rocket engines for course corrections.
7. The first mission would NOT land on the Moon.
8. The spacecraft would splash down in the Pacific.
Verne was not a mathematician or an engineer. He could not anticipate the invention of the multi-stage rocket.
@@jamescobban857Pretty spot on all things considered. Understandable how they wouldn't have predicted rocket technology at the time, it was still a long way off. I still find the giant cannon projectile to be amusing, but putting yourself in that time period it would make the most sense. Verne was a brilliant man.
Well I don't know but I was around for Y2K (that's the year 2000 for you young folk) and everybody thought civilization would end because it was a round number. Nothing happened. But have you looked for the history around the year 1000? Have you? There's nothing! As far as can be told, civilization actually ended in the year 1000.
King of Norway was defeated by Sweden and Denmark.
As for Y2K. We spent a huge amount of money and time fixing it. If we didn't do anything then a lot of issues would have occured.
I do remember some dude getting charged millions on his rented videos that were considered late.
I also vaguely remember some issues did occur here or there. Yet can't remember what.
The Y2K scare was more centered around computers glitching out because they thought everything would reset to 1900 at 12 midnight in New years 2000. People literally thought planes might fall out of the sky.
It's actually even funny saying the term Y2K now, you never hear it anymore but it's all anyone talked about at the time. I remember also around that time Segways were unveiled and were supposed to be the ultimate modern mode of transportation that would change the world...turned out they just made people look goofy riding them and were useful mostly only for mall security. Ironically today malls themselves are nearly extinct.
Leif Erikson founding Newfoundland was a significant event-he was the first European to set foot in the New World.
Yeah, like there was actually no civilization, or written history older then the year 1000. Don't you know.
CLOSE THE DOOR!
I always wondered whats the song that plays during ads? It heals my soul.
I skipped ahead. EDIT : This was a good episode. Informative, heartwarming, entertaining 4 the algorithm.
No C,X,or Q?
"Have you seen my pet At"?
"Nurse! This man needs a Ray"!
"Please take a number and wait in the Ueue".......
Definitely wouldn't have worked.
Totally rakers idea.
0:02 on a small screen I thought Simon was wearing shorts 😂
Once you create the periodic table, haven't you basically predicted every missing element?
Very nice live! We should do some live too on our channel
Just want to say that i feel like it's a VERY euro centric view to say that WW2 started when Germany invaded Poland. Japan had already invaded China years earlier and the Soviet Union still had non aggression treaties with both Germany and Japan. Either the start of WW2 was when Japan invaded china on July 7, 1937, or it started on December 7/8 1941 when Japan attacked the United States, the UK, France, and the Netherlands/Indonesia which caused the two separate wars in Europe/Africa and the Pacific to merge into one.
Having it start when Germany invaded Poland doesn't make sense because Japan, the US, and China had nothing to do with it yet. And even the Soviet Union was still buddy buddy with Germany.
Yes, had Foch been German his named would have been pronounced that way. Mais il n'était pas Allemand, donc c'est F-OO-Sh
Menangeries, Simon?
I think you meant Menageries.
😂
That's why I watch the Simpsons
@15:10 "English the most spoken language in the world..." *Chinese has entered the chat*
A package 📦 being delivered via a truck or car may not be a nomatic tube but it is in a way a closed off shuttle that travels on the open tube of hwys and roads... So in a way if you squint the tube thing happened
Futurama used tubes as people movers. Hearing about this prediction of a sprawling cross country system ofpneumatic tubes, I wonder if that was a joke referencing that old-timey prediction. Knowing the writers of that show, probably.
TRY LAVA Soap.. insted of all those OILY soap.
Darn it, I really wanted my pneumatic tube. :(
I don't think this one is wrong.
"Everything will come to us via a series of tubes."
In other words, the internet, right? 😂
Insightful thinking.
My brother in Christ, it's B-OO-LIAN
The audio in the beginning sounds like you’re tryna pinch one off
1st! Last time I was this early, they were predictions
Last time I was this early, I just returned from a radon spa to my home painted with Arsenic paint, drank a bottle of coca cola with cocaine in it, and smoked 3 packs of Camels, the cigarette 4 out of 5 doctors recommend 😂😂😂
@@100percentSNAFU lool
The coding language Ada is named after Ada Lovelace.
Long live film photography. No doubt digital is superior in nearly every quantifiable way. But, I hope they can continue to co-exist long into the future.
I also believve in magic and supernatural stuff, but as also a scientist, i recpognize ther are no measurable data points on those subjects and therefore no science can be done tto prove or disprove said notions and so i dont bother briging it into the equation when im dealing with other rational people. :P
Lmao, solves
Yip. WW1 brother..tiny difference @Simon
Simons leg looks like a huge finger
I predict, that I will like this Video. As always.
Lol@ "comaRRRRnd"
i'm watching this with the nightlight filter on and it looks like you're not wearing any trousers, it's like you only bothered to get half dressed then forgot to adjust the height on the camera. that's never happened to me during an online interview.
Your audio signal is a bit too hot.
Q approves current outcome of events.
Simon is trying to trick you into thinking he is showing off his legs so he can get more views.
I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who noticed that!
There was a clue when they called it World War One
Kind of ingenuous, Simon. You only talked about the wrong predictions a couple of times. Those “future predictions “ that came true were a tiny fraction of wrong predictions.
Simon wearing shorts
His sourname is pronounced Fosh.
You sound like you could easily add an aussie accent and no one would know youre a brit.
Its math not maths
Hey Simon. Been watching your TH-cam channels since 2018.. good work till you used a patsy for a break or something in 2024. Really not hear to listen to someone else when I’m on your channels. Have to also tell you that there are ppl in Indonesia that have enlarged spleens are have managed to hold their breath underwater for 20 mins or so. Maybe he was right about ppl not needing breathing apparatus over time. There is a possibility so maybe find out more about it and do a side projects on human evolution in regions for the altitude or depth of water or even high G training. Cheers and gday from Australia.😊
Perchance did you listen to the channels that he was no longer associated with? He had a parting of the ways with at least two channels that I know of: TopTenz and Biographics earlier in '24.
I really wish this channel would get better sponsors. The skin care shit is just so irrelevant. I expect it is true for most of your audience.
I think that Germany should have been split Hanover, the Rhineland and Prussia as separate countries.
