  • In this Video, I essentially continue the trend of what I was doing in the last video, which you should probably watch for context. I got no comments about my mic quality, so I'll assume it's perfect for you guys. Stay tuned, I've got more epic videos planned.

    Your ending bit reminds me of a short write-up called "Uncleftish Beholding", by sci-fi writer Paul Anderson. It's a brief rundown of atomic theory (uncleftish beholding) written in a fully Germanic form of English, and he renames many elements. I'll give you a few of his translations:
    hydrogen = waterstuff
    helium = sunstuff
    lithium = stonestuff
    oxygen = chokestuff
    ymirstuff (the primordial cow) = uranium
    uncleft = atom (indivisible)
    mote = particle (small part)
    lading = charge
    stuff = matter
    energy = work
    It's a very fun read, and part of me wishes we'd gone with a lot of more marked words in the sciences, but that'd make international communication harder.

    these videos deserve so much more love!! i've always wondered where these words got their origins

    Okay so Finnish and copper: Finnish does have an indigenous/uralic word for copper, vaski, but it's quite archaic. You only see it in old texts referring to the metal or when referring to brass instruments (e.g. vaskipuhallin). The name of the element, as well as the modern name for the metal, is kupari.

    For the CJK 砒 (arsenic), where in Chinese 砷(shēn)/砒(pī, obsolete, but known for 砒霜 = arsenolite/asadin as an acient toxic material); Japanese ヒ素(hisō, in Kanji = 砒素); Korean 비소 (piso), all ultmately from the 砒 for arsenolite/asadin in Chinese.
    In the Chinese 本草綱目 (Compendium of Materia Medica, 1578-1596), it is mentioned as 「砒,性猛如貔,故名。惟出信州,故人呼為信石。而又隱信字為人言」= "砒 (phī, also written as 磇), its nature is as fierce as 貔 (bhi, 貔貅, mythical beast), so it gets its name. Only because it is produced in 信州 (Xin province, now Jiangxi), that it is called by peope as 信石 (Xin stone). And it also is obscurely (euphemistically) ellipsed (as?) the character Xin for people to say" (folk etymology?). Interestingly, in Vietnamese, arsenolite is still called thạch tín (石信) that is loaned from Chinese 信/信石.
    The Chinese 砷, earlier 鉮, even earlier ⿱信金, even earlier 砒, is indeed probably a loan from arsenic, but I wonder if it is related to 信 because xīn sounds similar to shēn in many dialects.
    Anyway it is an ancient Chinese word that is borrowed into Japanese then Korean. There are also many other words in Chinese for arsenides like orpiment 雌黃, and realgar 雄黄.

    Platinum, Mercury, Lead in Chineses:
    I believe platinum is more commonly 白金 in the Chineses, so lump that in with "white gold".
    Mercury is more commonly 水銀, so "water silver", but apparently the native word can be traced back to the 淮南子 (139BC) as 澒, so it depends on whether you're considering actual use or what's on the periodic table.
    Lead is only fucked up in some Chinese languages. In most the normal word carries through. In Cantonese it's jyun4; in Hakka it's yēn; in Hokkien it's iân.
    As for Korean, 鑞 isn't soldier but *solder*. The character is transparently "metal wax" to me.

    Māori is pronounced more like, mowdi; 'ow' as in wow. Lovely video nonetheless. Ngā mihi maioha.

      This is deeply offensive, you should only trust Wikipedia if I'm the one who wrote the article (or maybe if a group of vegetables write it, I guess.)

    What I don't get is why in your map you don't color some places, like Latin America. If you are using Spain to refer to the Spanish language as a whole I get it, but then why are you coloring Brazil instead of only Portugal?

    • @santiarroundhere1316
      @santiarroundhere1316 Před 2 měsíci

      I know that In Latin America there are other languages like quechua, but that also happens in Spain with basque, for example

      To tell the truth? Brazil is only one country, so I was fine with changing it. But there are like 20-something Spanish speaking countries, and I didn't want to click them all. I know that sounds arbitrary.

    basque isnt a romance language

    • @zzineohp
      @zzineohp  Před 2 měsíci +1

      yeah, that was confusing for me reading the script too. The line should be "The Romance Languages sans Aromanian; and Basque," not "The Romance Languages sans Aromanian and Basque"
