This was taken from my stream on November 30th, 2022! Catch me live Monday to Friday here: / northernlion When I don't know what to play, I play Sporcle. It's perfect!
They definitely don't teach it where I live lol they actually stopped teaching it when I was in school in the late 90s I was like one of the last years that learned it.
The fact that NL goes so hard on that chatter saying Moana only has 1 good song made me unreasonably happy. That movie is just so dang good, man, probably one of the best soundtracks of any Disney movie to date
I'm sure like 10 years from now I'll have absolutely no idea what kids now are watching but it still drives me insane how little he knows about the cartoons I grew up on.
I write in cursive but i've never seen like half of those capital letter written like that ( and in Europe its quite common to write in cursive even nowadays)
The thing is that that is how my grandparents and maybe my parents learned to write it, but they made it easier to write and read as far as I know. And there are also a million other ways to write the letters, so it's not even surprising if you don't immediately recognise a single letter out of context even if you write in cursive.
@@schrodingerskatze4308 Ye. I read and write english cursive with ease, and I swear I have never seen that Q in my life. Which could be user error due to it being a very uncommon letter to see in capital. Like, sure, Quebec, and The Queen, but how likely are those to come up in casual U.S. cursive script?
In Austria we have Blockshrift (keyboard lettering), schreibschrift (similar to your cursive) and a kursiv (a "fancy cursive" style that is just mind-boggeling)
I'm weird, where my printing sucks, but I have really nice cursive because I like writing with fountain pens sometimes. If you think about how the letters should be, and then imagine what generations of people getting more and more lazy would turn it into, this actually makes sense. B is supposed to reach back and touch the bar before moving forward. S is supposed to have a swoop over and double back for the missing top part. R is supposed to double all the way back, but instead it just kind of goes down after the tip. Z... ok, people are having fun with that one. But sharpen it up and you can see what it was supposed to be, with a bonus bottom loop for whatever reason. That capital Q got me. Because I start lower down so it makes a full circle with a dash along the bottom.
As for the girl who used a ruler to make all those Ts, I think she's actually in the right. When you have two Ts in a row, you totally make two Ls and cross them both with one line. In cursive you write out the full word, then go back and dot the Is and cross the Ts. Of course you're going to cross two adjacent Ts with one line. So why not cross a fuck load of Ts with one line?
The story about your friend reminds me what I did during cursive writing practice. We had to fill a half page with the letter a - as a joke, I drew one big a. Was going to erase it, but got caught first.
This is a peculiar USA thing. "Cursive" just means what we used to call "joined-up" writing. It contrasts with "printing" (each character separate). "Cursive" doesn't denote particular letter shapes. And some of those in this video are peculiar USA varieties.
cursive absolutely does denote particular letter shapes, and it seems weird for you to write that off as some obscure thing. it'd be more accurate to say that "script" doesn't denote particular letter shapes, it's just joined-up writing.
@@Paradockzz Tbf you're both right, cursive is any form of writing where you flow from one letter to the other but there are also specific cursive alphabets which have specific shapes.
we had a similar set of cursive letters in Finland in the early 2000s. not identical, but mainly the same. they were all specified, of course, with exact shapes.
Here in Portugal we still learn cursive in first grade and the letters we use are much more understandable than the ones you use, some of those are just too complicated. If you combined that letters with the french language then I know a lot of people would pass out due too the extreme severity of the situation
I've spent most of my adult life questioning if the cursive I was taught was legit or just how my grade 4 teacher decided it should be. Thank you for this quiz setting my mind at ease. Except that 'Q' wtf is that?
YOOOO I fucking failed my 9th grade typing class because the tight ass teacher wanted me to use the home row but I'm disabled and I kinda have to just go freeform in order to type fast, but I'm really slow if I type the "correct"way. I retook the class the next year with the cool typing teacher and got an A typing my own way at 80 wpm.
NL I am begging you to watch Over the Garden Wall with your family. Maybe not for a couple of years since it’s a bit…dark. But it’s incredibly aesthetic and weirdly comforting. And I think you would really like the way it ends. Unexpectedly pog conclusion to the hero’s journey.
In the 90's my teacher in 5th grade teacher took me aside and said "Joe, I can't read your cursive. Please print from now on." I have never written cursive ever again, and my signature is a specific squiggle I use.
I think the problem is that that is the old way of writing cursive how my grandparents learned it, but not what you would do today. My cursive writing looks almost completely different than that. My grandparents are literally the only people I know who have a handwriting anywhere close to this.
English is my second language and I didn't care about learning how to read cursive until I became a pharmacist, I don't know how many people suffered because of my dumb ass still reading it as JAM A MAN OF FORTUNE.
bruh a teacher failing someone who types 110 wpm for not using home row is literally thinking someone's doing something wrong because they're that much better than you.
I took a computer class as a extracurricular thing in 7th and 9th grade, we were supposed to learn how to make websites, blogs and stuff like that. 3 weeks in when everyone had stopped listening the teacher gave up and we spent the rest of the year either looking at youtube, movies/seriers or straight up having lans playing cs or halo for the entire lesson
Moana is like Frozen - it DOES have one good song - they just play it like eight times with different lyrics. On second thought, it has Shiny, so make that two good songs.
I think I was among the last to learn cursive in elementary school (born 97), and I hated it because I have difficulty writing generally and felt so vindicated when I NEVER used it again.
I learned cursive in elementary school and I was born in 2001 (this was in the netherlands, it probably differs from country to country). I didn't even get typing classes lol, guess which skill has been more useful. Though i may also have been one of the last, i have never really thought about it
i was taught cursive and i was born in 2000, but im pretty sure it was phased out because after 6th grade i was never told about it again. that being said, i did find myself taking notss in cursive during college
TELL ME WHY ARE WE SO BLIND TO SEE, THAT THE ONES WE HURT ARE YOU AND ME! That's the Refrain in Gangsta's Paradise. It's followed up by the Chorus... Been spending most our lives living in a Gangsta's paradise...
oh man Crash Test Dummies is a band I never hear anyone ever say anything about ever. The maidens had other plans for the two knights They'd give them potions And make them see dreams and lights
Cursive Q is fucked up here. We were always taught to close the loop so that it looks like an upside down cursive O. Like a little circle with diarrhea.
Joke's on you I'm a Gen Z that primarily writes in cursive. The only difference is that I complete the loop on Q and make G the large version of small g like intended.
I write in mostly cursive. I didn't like how Q looks it looks like a 2 so i changed it into a circle and have a line poke through it on bottom right. Also the capital doesn't match there to what I was taught to.
by just pushing the keys you need to push without resetting them back to some default position afterwards. i usually move a finger to the next letter i'll need to type if it's soon and have it wait there until i'm ready for that letter. otherwise the finger kinda just hovers near whatever letter it just typed until i realize i need it again.
