Hey there, saw this message while passing through. It's because in Japanese some words spelt out contain characters with individual meanings some of which you can use to guess what the whole word will mean. Hence it's like calling a "washing machine" a "box" for him. Since at the very least when talking about a washing machine the name tells you what it may do. I'm still studying the language so I could be wrong.
He's talking about a laundry iron. They're literally just called "irons." Rarely do you call them "presses" or "electric irons." They are called irons, of course, because they used to be literally just heated slabs of iron. But Daigo is of course right in that the name is meaningless, more or less. This really doesn't have anything to do with Japanese, but more with English having the name of the clothes iron just be "iron," which I'm sure anyone of any language can see is a little unassuming.
@@zackwyvern2582 Not exactly, the name is just a shortened version of the original name that was more detailed. As you said they were heated slabs of iron, that's why they were called flatirons. Because they were flat pieces of iron. It is pretty descriptive. Now we just refer to them as irons since everyone knows what your talking about so the longer name is unnecessary. Though flat iron now adays refers to a hair straight iron.
"I found you faker!" "Faker? I think you're the fake Daigo around here. You're comparing yourself to me... ORA! You're not even good enough to be my-" "I'll make you eat those words!"
I was thinking the exact same damn thing. Imagine the other player in front of his ps4. Full commitment to the fight. "what was his name again in middle school?"
He has a point, why is it called an iron and why is the verb named after it? I can't think of another way of saying the action, but it doesn't make sense in the slightest
@@kamikaze4172 Well because originally, it was literally made of iron, maybe a wooden grip but they would burn. They would heat them up some how and use the iron to iron the clothes 😂

Daigo is pretty funny, even when he's not trying to be. Because English is my first language, I never thought about iron being a weird name for the tool. It really doesn't make sense. For some reason, I was getting a Nisioisin vibe from that talk.
Originally it was an iron piece that you heated up over a flame and used that heat to take care of the wrinkles. People being lazy shorthanded the whole process into the verb "iron"
This was the first time I watched Daigo on stream talking and being able to understand what he's saying. He is very funny and witty and it was satisfying seeing him roast a guy for using his name asking why he was using dhalsim (a legitimate question because I cannot think of a single instance of him using sim).
Imagine if that guy beat Daigo using Ryu...than Daigo would be depressed and after months training in a mountain he would return to evo to be the champion with ryu
Gotta say, based on the old tournament footage I never expected Daigo to be this much of a lovable goof, but I'm on board with it, lol. Always seems to be having fun, great attitude.
It's called an iron because the metal of the product was made of iron. It was also called a flat iron, because it was iron used to flatten out clothes. In Britain, a smoothing iron. Naturally, people got lazy, and started calling it an iron and useing it as a verb. It flows naturally when you say "iron it out."
@@psychicfire8232 well I live in Brazil (Brazilian from São Paulo)kkkk 20 years and i haven't seen a bunch of Diego's around... Two or three at most, its not common at all here, but Gabriel, Lucas and Bruno are the ones that I've seen the most.
I'm from south america and "Daigo" reads exactly like that, people call him "Diego" because it's a common name here and it's funny that it's so similar
Daigo: I found you, FAKER! Deigo: Faker? You're the fake Daigo around here, you're comparing yourself to me? Ha! You're not even good enough to be my fake- Daigo: I'll make you eat those words!
"Iron doesn't explain the function of an Iron. It's like calling a Washing Machine a Box." He's not wrong. I'm sure there is some history to that like the first few irons just being a slab of iron.

The English language makes a wide use of verbs as subjects and viceversa; the word "iron" comes from the times before electric power when people used tools rather similar to the modern irons but with a hollow space inside to be filled up with burning coal. So, they applied the hand tool with an heated iron surface onto the clothes, hence both the action "to iron" and name of the tool "iron" made sense centuries ago.
A clothes iron gets its name for two qualities of the material it is made of. Iron as a metal is rather heavy, if you make a smooth flat surface of it you can use it's weight to flatten and smoothen other things. Iron also retains heat rather effectively, reason why it was used to brand things (like cattle). People at some point discovered that they could dry and smoothen their clothes by heating a flat piece of iron and passing it over their clothes, hence the name "clothes iron".
Just wait until he finds Diego Umejuarez.

I mean it makes sense if you look at the history of the iron where it was, basically, a block of iron you heated with a handle on it.
Also, iron as a verb has only one meaning, and it's what the tool does.
Also it was called a flatiron or a clothes iron. The name was later shortened.
