Wow. What an enticing and thought-provoking comment. Clearly you are the most intelligent person on this entire website.
This was funny. Though I must object to you saying the native English are butchering the English language with the letter 'u' since, well, they DID invent the English language first. Or was that sarcasm? You're right so much of the time that I can't tell what's acting, what's sarcasm and what's incredibly literal.

America has been around for over two hundred year. In that time, both our English and Britain's has drasticly changed. They're no more right than Americans are, and the whole language was derived from a west germanic language which was derived from another one before that. People need to stop giving the English all the credit for English, that's not how language works.

the reason English is so radically different and complex is because it's not derived entirely from anything. Latin makes up about 80% of the words, while most of the grammar and syntax comes from German. Also Greek, French, Spanish and even some eastern and African languages add to it. that's why it's so different and varied depending on where you are

06.30.2009 - 19:38 | LoveFromConcentrateTo be fair, "yo" is not a substitute for "you", because yo is used as a greeting, something you wouldn't use the word "you" for, unless you were incredibly rude.

11.29.2009 - 23:09 | ThatWhiteGuyYou obviously have not heard of Hydroglyphics. Hydroglyphic is the language of the Marine Egyptians, the guys that lived under water. Yeah, it turns out that the Egyptians took over Atlantis five and a half years after it sunk. They invented a new language so they can seem better than the idiots living on the surface. How can you not know this, you simple-minded fool. You must have come from the boring land people. Sigh, what a waste of life.

You must all watch the fully animated Nostalgia Critic Movie coming in August. My best friend Zak Strobel is the creator of this fine movie and he is an animating GENIUS. If you want to see more movies by him, go to ooozeanimationstudios.com or search Zachary Strobel on Youtube. I personally recommend you watch Senor Crab starring Me (Jason Rubenfeld) and Zak's brother Logan.

...but it's Hie[b]ro[/b]glyphics. Not Hy[b]dro[/b]gliphics.
That is, unless Egypt was a land of water-people.

I agree with you. I don't care what others say, English was made by the English. If it wasn't then that's just plain weird. It's like the France making a language and naming it German.
Anywho, funny as always Mr. Glasses. I always get excited when I see a new video added ;D

Especially the part where you make fun of the Jackass that says his way is more correct than my way of saying things...
Maybe you should have put the finger in British terms so that he may better understand what a jackass he truly is.
I also see that despite the questions being closed, you still decided to answer a question that several people and I were asking. It's nice to know that you take time out of your busy schedule to answer a question like this.... Keep on reading that bible, or Narnia or whatever in "hydroglyphics".

Like that one episode when he was asked "How dead is the dead sea?"

07.23.2008 - 22:25 | skateman555[quote]We in Canada also use the letter "u" in words like colour, flavour, etc. Americans seem to use it less, though, even in simple words like "you"-- let's not forget the word "yo".[/quote]
"Yo" isn't actually a variation of the word "you" which is used in America. "Yo" can be used as a greeting or after a pause, the latter translating into something like "you know?"
