      How am I going to learn so many words tho! I want to know all the words in English & Dutch & Welsh etc - I know about 60k to 100.000 words in Modern English / Scottish dialect / Middle English and over 6.500 base words in Dutch and more than 3.500 words in Norwegian and also in Swedish! And if a word has more than one meaning it should also count as different words!

    • @FrozenMermaid666
      @FrozenMermaid666 ปีที่แล้ว

      I highly recommend Dutch & Welsh & Norwegian etc - they are perfect languages, like English! Modern Dutch is the prettiest and most refined language in the world with the most pretty / poetic words, just like English, and all should be learning / speaking Dutch as Dutch & English are to be the universal languages in TNW! Dutch words are so pretty, I feel like reading them all the time - they are so pleasing to the eye / ear, and Welsh reminds me a bit of Dutch (I’m also learning Welsh, and I’m learning all the other Celtic languages as well, and all the Germanic languages) and are also very refined, and, both Dutch & Welsh have the H / CH sound!

    • @FrozenMermaid666
      @FrozenMermaid666 ปีที่แล้ว

      The word afon (pronounced avon) which means river in Welsh is similar to the Dutch word avond - and words such as derwen / bedwen / helygen / haid / blodyn etc kind of remind me of Dutch words as well, for some reason! Both Dutch & Welsh have that royal feel to them, being such a superior language (like English) representing me - so they are one of the first languages on my list and I prioritize them at the moment! I noticed that Dutch / Welsh / Norwegian etc follow the most logical patterns, just like English, which explains why the words are so pretty and have that perfect flow and harmony - they have such good letter combinations (letters that go well 2gether) and almost all the words in these languages are so well-constructed (without repeating the same syllable) with pretty letter combinations that follow the most logical patterns, and, all Germanic languages and all Celtic languages (and even most Latin languages) follow logical patterns, which is why they sound so good and have mostly pretty words, and I want to learn all the pretty languages, as fast as possible!

    • @FrozenMermaid666
      @FrozenMermaid666 ปีที่แล้ว

      My list of languages that I highly recommend, starting with the prettiest and then the easiest (for an English speaker, at least) etc...
      ...Dutch & Norwegian (they are really perfect languages, like English + Scottish dialect, with almost only pretty words and beautiful sounds, and should be learned with the soft G and the soft / Americanized R, and are very poetic and refined, so they are a must-know, just like English / Scottish)
      ...Swedish (it’s almost as pretty as Norwegian, but it’s easier to read Swedish words after learning more than 3k Norwegian words, so that’s why one should start with Norwegian, as most Norwegian words are very easy to read and memorize)
      ...Portuguese / Galician / Catalan / Gallo / French / Occitan / Esperanto (most words are very pretty words, a bit more prettier than many Spanish words, even though Spanish is way easier to learn, and one should definitely choose a more open / non-nasal pronunciation / soft R tho, because a soft accent with open vowels can make these languages sound so good and pretty)
      ...Frisian / Afrikaans / Luxembourgish / German / Limburgish (very pretty words in all these languages, even though a lot may find German grammar more complicated, and by the way, one should use a soft R and soft G, which will make them sound so pretty)
      ...Spanish / Italian / Corsican (lots of pretty words and many neutral words, and Spanish is definitely the easiest Latin language to learn, which makes it a great option to start with, and Italian is as easy as Spanish honestly, from what I’ve noticed, and I highly recommend a soft R in these languages and all other languages, which will make them sound very pretty)
      ...Icelandic / Danish / Faroese (very pretty words, but it’s easier to learn these languages once one knows Norwegian and Swedish, because they are not as easy to read as the other two Nordic languages, and the pronunciation can be more complicated in Danish, for example, which has many words and rules that are similar to the Norwegian word and others that are more similar to the Swedish word, so that’s why they should be learned after learning a lot of words in Norwegian and Swedish, and, Icelandic is a bit easier to read than Faroese)
      ...OId Norse / Latin / OId English / Norn / MiddIe English etc (I highly recommend learning at least one of these languages, even though they aren’t used a lot nowadays, and all other Germanic languages that I didn’t list here, but I have them on my list tho, and they are interesting, and can be used in poetry / lyrics because they are very poetic sounding, so I am going to learn them all, plus I already know a lot of words in Middle English, which I use in many of my lyrics, and I can understand it because it’s mostly the spelling that is a bit different from Modern English, but OId English is completely different tho, so it’s more similar to German)
      ...Welsh / Scots Gaelic / Irish / Breton / Cornish / Manx etc (I recently found lyrics and read words in these Celtic languages, and they all seem very interesting, have so many pretty words, from what I read, and they are completely different, and kinda have an elf-like sound to them, so they are perfect for me, but I also recommend them to all because they sound very poetic, and can probably be learned in a few years, I don’t know, but I seem to be able to remember the words I learned so far, so they don’t seem difficult to memorize, but they are definitely more difficult to spell than to memorize tho)
      ...Hungarian (I know two songs in Hungarian that I learned years ago, so it doesn’t seem that difficult to memorize, and many words are so pretty, so I would definitely recommend this language, which is very different)
      ...Finnish / Estonian (these two languages have a lot of pretty words and a lot of neutral words, even though other words aren’t pretty and are opposites, but I would recommend at least the pretty words and the neutral words, which I am also learning)
      And, I also recommend learning the pretty words from Indonesian & Filipino & Sundanese, because these three languages have a mix of very pretty words, as well as lots of neutral words, but then they also have a lot of funny words that are not pretty (so a lot of opposites too) but, I am definitely learning all the pretty words that I find, which can be used mixed with other languages and in poetry / lyrics!

    What if we combined every single word into every single combination to make sentences of X Number of words and then we should have every single sentence that is combined from X number of words.
    This will have all what will happen in the future and everything that happened in the past that can be described in X number of words also will have every lie told and every truth that can be said in X number of words.
    It is mathematically possible even if trying to get every combination with 600 000 words sounds impossible 🤯

    I have a book here called homework for grown-ups stating that the Oxford English Dictionary contains definitions for over five hundred thousand words in current use some studies record over 900, 000 English words it says the next largest language is German which comes in that 175000 words the average English speaker probably uses about 1/60th of these words in his lifetime. It also says that Shakespeare's vocabulary is reckoned to have run over 24, 000 words so I feel like based on this book, this video is inaccurate...

      That's a bit of an exaggeration. In North India they say sanskrit in South India they say tamil. It is neither of them. Proto Indo European is the father of Sanskrit. Sanskrit was a White European Language before the white Europeans conquered Indian and made the Dravidian Locals learn Sanskrit. Kind of like English. Although Sanskrit does have more words than English it still only has 10 million words (But Counting) Arabic has 12 million. Sanskrit might be older but at least Arabic is not a dead Language.

I think people exaggerate when they say there are 600 thousand words in English and 12 million in Arabic but from what I can tell Arabic is definitely far richer than English.

      English has the most words ever, including all the technical terms and the descriptive terms and so many loanwords from many languages, and even synonyms for many of them, and almost all the words in English are a pretty word, while most words in Arabic are a non-pretty word, so why would one learn Arabic LOL - Germanic languages like Dutch & English etc are the prettiest / most refined languages in the world with most pretty / poetic words!

    English is not the top. Arabic has about 12 millions. Why Arabic has a lot of words. Just have a look?
    You use the word *Sleep*
    We use a lot of words to describe the process of sleeping
    1-The first moment of sleeping we call it "sinet"
    2-After sinet, it comes the second word that describe the moment of sleeping after sinet which is *Nuaaz*
    3-After Nuas, the *hucua* period starts
    4. Rukuq.
    The genral name of the word Sleeping means *naum* .

    It's somewhere between 1m and 1.5.m
