I liked when it was Hank Green.
- Comment on Science Takes That Might Make You Angry 1 day ago:
I agree I’m with the first part of the video. Butt is not legs. It was very interesting and I am glad that part did not make me angry, lol.
In short: humans need butts (fatter cheeks) more than other animals that run on four legs due to the impact of running and that it absorbs the force allowing us to run long distances for more time without getting too tired. Ie racing.
Can’t speak for the rest as it was 50 mins. But worth the save for later, it’s Sci-show!
- Comment on What is an example of an adaptation of a book where the TV series was better? 1 day ago:
Do comics count? The Walking Dead because it was way different and more creative. But I still like the comics.

Now, I can understand that. Thank you.

Lol, what? It was educational. For me and anyone else who might want to know. The problem right here is I don’t get sarcastic over a question asked in a community called no stupid questions. However, I am stupid for asking the wrong one. So, thank you. Sincerely, tho.

First, it would be a start, and second: it could be generalized to certain countries until a consensus was made. DOE/government or what is left of it could petition each country to decide this out of respect and cultural awareness. I dare not add any pathos to this argument. The more open-minded people there are the more it helps.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 week ago:
Either
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 week ago:
Okay the question should be why do countries have to do this and why is it so hard not to?
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 week ago:
I really want to know. Cuz America is a Poser?

Glad you mentioned endonym/exonym are you be any chance a linguist or do you study/have you studied linguistics?

Thank you for this comment, I was aware, sorry for not adding as much detail as I needed to get the right answer. Seems I asked the question wrong. Wouldn’t it help to learn these things in general less, make them available to learn at younger ages? If not already, because it would be grand.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 week ago:
I know, I think I forgot to mention I understand that other countries do this, sorry for specifying America as I cannot speak for other countries as I am not from them nor have I been to them. This was about cultural awareness, and the fact that by learning difficult things at a younger age, ‘USA’ would be better. They are already teaching things younger and younger as we advance as a society, why not add this? I hear young kids learning more and more difficult things. But making it easier or harder is less the question, but rather advancing and making people smarter and more cultured.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 week ago:
I would love to learn that. Even as a kid I probably would have loved it. However I understand the difficulty.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 week ago:
This is the correct answer. But I agree with the part it is unfortunate that they didn’t respect and we don’t respect enough to say España or ‘la France’ hopefully I am spelling that right.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 week ago:
Yeah, then they should make us pronounce all the countries correctly. My point exactly.
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 week ago:
They should use phonetics and I am mostly talking about the country names not all words. English does use Türkiye now, I hope they do for most. But when there are pictures or a completely different language there are at least a lot of ways to illustrate pronunciation using phonetics, even of foreign language. America’s education system might be improved in this way. Instead of no child left behind. No child left untaught. Then they wouldn’t be behind, aside from learning disabilities and other disabilities.
