      I don't understand, why does the IPA transcription signal its length? can you explain

    • @GrizonII
      @GrizonII ปีที่แล้ว +8

      @@DJ-vx9gl Wikipedia articles frequently use the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) to indicate pronunciation guides for names. Considering that, at least to an English reader, it would not necessarily be immediately obvious how Usiququmadevu’s name is pronounced, then if this article was particularly long (hence likely having lots of information available about it as well as likely many people editing the article) one would expect it to have such a guide. Since it doesn’t, that suggests that not much information is provided on that page, and so it’s a shorter article.

    I just needed to share this crazy coincidence. When Paris Hilton was brought up, I looked her up to see if I could see her referred to as a socialite to internally prove NL wrong. On her page I saw her mentioned as the "It Girl" of 2001 in NYC. Of course I clicked on it to see what that meant.
    Imagine my shock when NL called me out later in the video saying people would click that one since it's an interesting phrase 😱

    There’s no way being a jockey doesn’t destroy your spine over the course of some years. No clue about how much skill it takes, but think about how often you are moving up and down on a horse. At high speeds your spine will be experiencing so many repeated and strong compressive forces. The spine does not like these.

    The horse is doing the work sure but it's not like you are doing nothing. The car does all the work, yet your ass still hurts after a road trip.
