Glad Drew is still making videos despite being kidnapped.
(Edit) Sorry guys, might have jinxed it, he stopped uploading.
and is still as cringy as ever when he replaces the word "national socialist" with "no no German"
he has a week in advance in the pipeline I guess
My theory is that the kidnapper doesn't know what day it is.
@@olivewooled1297 good theory!
Bro has the _ profile picture
A similar thing to Yucatan happened apparently with Calcutta. Some brits came to the place now called Calcutta and asked the farmers what the place was called. They thought the brits we asking about the crops they were transporting and they replied with "kal kata" which translates to "cut it yesterday" and the name has stuck ever since. (This might be utter bogus as is the case with most naming stories)
In the Yucatán peninsula it's very likely that was the case since either: "Mahathan Yù Ak Ah-tán" or "Yūk Ak kat'án" were ancient Mayan peninsular dialect forms of saying basically "I don't understand your language; I don't speak your tongue".
Spanish who first arrived there must have heard these sort of phrases when trying to communicate a lot and thought that was the name of the area, and this, plus the fact that there were a lot of placenames similar sounding may have lead the Spanish to believe it was the case, example:
Yu-Cal-Petén ("Yu", meaning string of pearls or pearl necklace, "Cal" meaning neck or choke, and "Petén" place or land), Yuca-Petén (place of the yucas, a lot of villages, settlements and areas were called like this as well), Yalxán, Yalsihón, Yaxkukul, Yaxkukulcán, among others.
There were other similar phrases in Maya dialects that the Spanish may have heard which contributed to this like: Yu'ukatán (I'm not from here/they're not form here), Uh Yu hthaán / Uh Yu Ka ht'aan (Listen to the -funny - way they speak), Ma'naatik ka t'aan (I don't understand your speech), Ci u t'aan (I can't understand), Ki u t'aan (I don't know what you're talking about), etc.
Also another chronicle refers to an encounter one of the ships of Columbus fleet had with Honduran Maya merchants in the Caribbean with whom they exchanged goods and they started their conversation with "Yuk'al-taan Mayab" meaning something to the effect of: "everyone who speaks our language (Mayan) comes from where we come" (Mayab was the placename ancient Maya gave to the area of the Yucatan peninsula and part of northern central America and they were from modern day Honduras).
I've heard that "kangaroo" comes from "angaru" which means something along the lines of "I don't understand you".
This was during the colonial times, when a British man asked a native what the animal was, and he said "Angaru" or something like that.
The name stuck ever since.
There’s a lot of rivers in England called the river Avon. The romans allegedly asked the Celts the name of the place and they said Avon meaning “river”
It means (it was) cut yesterday
@@GuilhermeHuertaeSilva the way I heard it explained was that the native tried to say "I don't understand your question", which is a pretty hilarious name for an animal species

7:10 Frederik II (aka stupor mundi) had all kinds of experiments done. IIRC he gave two newborns to a mute goat herder. The kids endet up imitating the goats but not speaking a word, as one could have guessed.
10:55 Making the Germans go through Belgium was actually the whole point of the Maginot Line (plus creating jobs during the Great Depression). The idea was Belgium would build their own thicc fortification line cutting straight north of where the Maginot line in France ended, making for a much shorter and cheaper line. Then, when it looked obvious war was happening, the plan was Belgium would permit French and British troops to enter their territory before Germany mobilised, letting the Allies man those fortifications. But then not only did Belgium not really build anything (because Great Depression and they were too broke to pay for it), the Belgian government also chickened out and declared neutrality and wouldn't let Allied forces into their territory until the Germans were literally crossing the border.
8:45 You pronounced it right... Goku's move was partially named after him (it also has meaning in Japanese).
Haha
I haven't reached that part of the video yet but I'm assuming they're talking about King Kamehameha from Hawaii? I learned about it a few months ago and it's still surprising to me that that's not a fact that *everyone* mentions, considering how huge Dragon Ball was in the 90s and 00s.
The attack was named after King Kamehameha, although in Hawaiian it's pronounced a bit different as: Ka-MEha-MEha, the last two parts sounding exactly the same in intonation and with emphasis on both "ME-" parts.
@@JordiVanderwaal extra history? Loved those episodes, but kept thinking they were pulling my leg with the name...
@@FreddieHg37 yeah, that's because of Japanese, which is based on syllables instead of single letters
So it's KA-ME-HA-ME-HA

Petition for Drew's kidnapper to keep Drew with Himself. His clone is funnier.
People often dont understand that being walked around was the entire purpouse of the Maginot line. I mean, why build a giant fortification? to expect the enemy to invade you from your strongest points?
it was all a plan to make the germans attack belgium where the bulk of allied forces were but instead they went through a forest and encircled the allied armies so... lol

Guys

Edit: he did exactly 7 videos in advance
Rip Drew
Maybe he finally got kidnapped
It is time to finally determine whether Drew is real or have been kidnapped and replaced by a doppleganger, by asking him the question that only the real Drew knows the right answer to:
"What is the name of the Bob Ross's favourite paintbrush ?"
You really only need to ask him the name of the biggest country in Oceania. If he pronounces it Auz-tchruay-li-uh, he's fine. If he pronounces it Auz-tray-li-ah, pull the plug, he's gone.
Update We still have no clue where this f*cking guy is
the french didnt think the maginot line was impenetrable, they knew a war with germany would come and they wanted to fight it in belgian soil instead of theirs, in ww1 german occupied the brille region and looted it dry, they didnt want a repeat of that
it's not just that. France initially planned to expand the maginot strong fortifications alongside Belgium's borders, which belgium refused, leaving that side vulnerable. Which i don't mean as an excuse for france's failure. any plan is only as good as its biggest flow.
@@penhad7275 as i knew France just didn't have enough money to make the rest of it, so they had a light trench defense on the Belgian border
@@pecetabla8042 yes that too. the line was supposed to follow along the Belgo-german border, which would have been less costly. but when Belgium retracted their pact with France, they decided to build much lighter fortifications on the Franco-Belgian border, as building the same level of fortifications on this section would have been significantly more costly due to lowlands and swampy areas.
But the most critical mistake was to neclect the Ardennes forest hills (south of Belgium on the french border) thought to be impassable for the german tanks. And there goes the blitzkrieg.
WE NEED A CHAD PLUSHIE
I agree.

Ok
yes
Places and things being named due to misunderstanding are surpriisingly common. As far as I know, the UK didn't use to have spruces. When Polish merchants arrived with spruces in England, the English merchants asked "what's this?". Polish merchants answered in Polish - "świerk". Since that was difficult to understand, the English followed up with another question: "Where did you get it from?", to which Poles would answer "Z Prus" ("From Prussia"). Write that in accordance with English phonetics and you get "spruce".

finally! Another memes! lets gooo
The Maginot line worked perfectly. It defended open terrain. The real surprise is how quickly German troops moved through the forest where to engage where the line was weak.
To be fair, the initial plan was French and Belgian troops to defend on Belgian soil because both countries knew that they will invade Belgium first. That is also why France didn't initially plan to fortify its border with Belgium. When Germany remilitarised the Rhineland by 1936 and France/England didn't act, Belgium just gave up its alliance with France and went neutral... This is were WWII started: Germany knew that France/England will respect Belgium neutrality, therefore completely safe from being invaded by their West flank, so Germany could do whatever it wanted.
France now have to plan to defend the Belgian border which was way harder to do. The first Maginot Line took 10 years to be built, financed by German war reparation. The second one only had 3-4 years, extended on harsher soil, without German war reparation (finance was a problem): it was lighter.
France and Germany made ballsy moves. France thought it could protect Belgium and went all in. Germany thought France would be ballsy, so they went by the Ardennes to flank them. Basically, if France didn't tried to battle the German on Belgium soil and stayed at home, France/Germany war would end in a stalemate even with French semi-obsolete material and half population.
tf do you mean worked "perfectly". would have stopped the germans if it worked
@@derpanator5671 the Germans never attacked the line, they went around it which was the basic goal from the start. The issue was Germany made it through the forests of Belgium far faster than anyone could have anticipated, French authorities thought they would have ample time to reinforce threatened positions. That was the basic point of the Maginot line, to prevent Germany from marching directly into France and to force them to go through a different country first slowing down the advance and providing time to move forces around to counter it.
@@jamesjellis yeah so oit didnt work
@@derpanator5671 it performed the function it was designed to perfectly. Not my fault your ignorance is blinding.
France was litteraly pressured by the British and Americans to not expand the Maginot line and then decided to not help France when Germany was invading France by this non-maginot line.
France also couldn't imagine the germans going through the Ardenne forest as it would be impossible to move such a large force without tanks through the forest, they simply didn't realize how much tanks had improved and what you could do with them
Keep up the good work drew

Once again another great video from Drew
1:00 - the British did something similar for the Serbian/Yugoslavian royal family, IIRC
4:16 he got kidnapped on December 27th 2022 that's why
EPIC line bro
11:00 Haha, I love how he breaks and laughs slightly reading that.
3:42 canadas entire national defence plan is “what u gunna do? Invade North America? Ur seriously gunna fire missiles two inches from the crack head downstairs? Na, didn’t think so.”
Fun fact: at 6:31 it was referring to trains so, NYC in this case refers to the railroad company New York central, and not New York city.
Same with city of truro
(I am Canadian) Canada recently bought 15 warships and 10 F16 from the American army and we started to train a lot of troops, the news on Google is not up to date for unknown reasons but know that at the moment Canada is really militarizing.
US considers the 1812 war a stalemate, the UK considers it a sideshow … at best.
6:18 they were not talking about the cities they were talking about the locomotives, city of truro is a locomotive name named after the city and NYC 999 is not New York City. It stands for New York central, and the 999 was the locomotive number.
The Maginot Line's fault wasn't that it didn't go far enough into France but that Belgium didn't build their part of the line which allowed the Germans to go around the fortifications. If they had completely their half, the Germans wouldn't have broken through the Ardennes because their would have been hundreds of fortifications in their way. This is Belgium's fault for stopping construction after the Rhineland was remilitarized and their King thought that neutrality would be a more effective defense than an impenetrable line of forts.

I wonder 🤨
10:16 Germany going around the Maginot actually was kinda surprising because the French-Belgian border isn't exactly smooth sailing for an army, there's forests and hills and shidd so the French figured that that would be good enough. Spoiler: it was not
Plot twist: The French wanted them to go around the Maginot, to fight on Belgian and Lux soil instead of theirs.

The difference is that the Americans went in with the objective of incorporating Canada into the US, while the British and Canadians only fought to defend Canada. As the Americans were unable to fulfil their objectives, while the British were able to sustain the status quo with a meagre defense force because of Napoleon, and the fact that the Royal Navy had also annihilated most of the US navy, causes many who actually look into the war to realise that the Americans had lost, while the British and Canadians had won, as they had succeeded in defending.
