    (Native US English speaker) I had never heard "sesquipedalian" before, and even though I'd heard "lugubrious" and "vicissitude" before I didn't remember the meaning of either. Very fun video!

      Yeah, they got a bunch of rare words. These words are so rare, some of them retained their Latin features. Generally when a word is loaned it absorbs previous changes to the languages. So, for example, Latin -tio becomes English -tion.
      But if it's a loanword only used, for example, in legal documents or scientific latin, or other places where people try to sound smart, then it retains its form. That's the type of word they had here. Vicissitude has basically the same form it had in Latin.
      Even as a native speaker of a Romance language, I only ever hear "vicissitude" in poems or other such stuff. I think most native speakers of Romance languages don't even know what it means, even if they broke it down (because the parts still make sense in my language).

      I'm 44 yo and have heard of most of them myself except the V word. Maybe it's just experience? I can't hear every word in the English language. If you are younger, even with those specialized courses, it doesn't change that outcome. I have learned that the day I stop learning is the day I'm 6ft under.

      It's a Latin word. It's used regularly enough in Portuguese (especially in poems) but in 15 years of speaking English fluently I've only seen it used once or twice. And I read philosophy and stuff, it's just really an extremely rare loanword.

      It reminds me of How people in the Scandinavian countries tend to speak English with a native American accent. I have seen a lot of people on TH-cam and even on-the-street interviews and it was hard to tell they were not American natives, especially in Sweden. From the few Swedish people I have met in person, they say it is almost a second language there.

O usuário pode facilmente transformar partes dos seu corpo em armas fazendo crescer seus ossos como também criar feras quimericas através da união profana entre dois seres vivos ou parcialmente vivos.

    In portuguese (br) we have the word vicissitude and its meaning is the same as in english but... it's a word nobody uses. Specially the young ones. It's a word for old novels, that is.

    At times i encounter English words that make me wonder if someone actually really factually uses them in everyday life..like "Acquiescence","Imprimatur","Connivance"..
    They are in the dictionary,but hey,would the average native speaker even recognize them pronounced or written?:)

    • @DrVictorVasconcelos
      @DrVictorVasconcelos 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      These all seem Latin. I can tell you that acquiescence is used frequently enough in psychology. Imprimatur looks like it was imported directly from the diary of some Roman emperor. Connivance sounds like an attempt to make conniving more French. It almost seems to revert the "natural" -ing ending which many Latin loanwords evolved to have in English to the French one.
      So no, they don't look like they're used enough because they hardly even evolved from their original forms, and it's been thousands of years. Words that are used frequently evolve.
      It's more of a situation through which it sounds erudite to use them so people insert them in the language but they never really become popular. Perhaps a memory of the transition between French and English as the international language.

    Re the differences between British and American pronunciation: I've heard that British English pronunciation has changed more in the past couple hundred years than American English has. I've also heard that English has changed more in its pronunciation over time than most other languages, so an English speaking time traveller would have a more difficult time than average. It's also why many English words have strange silent letters, like the silent k in "knife"; the spellings did change over time to sync with pronunciation, but then got locked in by the invention of the printing press.

    It's funny that the British girl said to the Indian girl regarding 'glass', "I realize that you say it in the same way as a British way", but the Indian girl has an American accent and I think she thought the British girl was saying "gloss". To my ear she said an 'o' sound not that 'ah' sound the British girl used. The Brazilian girl changed the 'o' back to an 'ah' and the Korean girl took that as an 'a' and changed the 'ah' into something more like the 'ae' in the American pronunciation of 'glass'. Somehow two wrongs made a right.

    Just because one Indian person speak in that way doesn't mean everybody speak in that way. I don't understand why people used to judge and claimed that because of one particular person, considers everyone speaks in that way. As you can see there are lots of korean who can speak english very well too.

    The Korean girl has so many excuses😅😅😅. The game went wrong many times 6:01 9:23 10:19 due to her misleading interpretation of the words 9:40 10:22 . Can’t you just repeat what you heard?

      Ikr. Even the US girl said that the game would be easier if you just repeat the words you heard than think about what exactly the words is before telling the other person. It's a bit irritating honestly, but also fun 😂
