​​@@maruhigakuenNO WAY I GOT PINNED and thanks You should probably put these in the descriptions of your videos because it will make them 一兆% more useful for people interested and I won't have to awkwardly ask everytime.

4:01 "String instruments are just playable bows" is beautiful 4:26 I saw a lot of flags with these kanji along the roads in Hokkaido, I assume those are supposed to serve the same purpose as the lucky charms?

I read a great book on how humans form categories, with a lot of Japanese counting word examples. Especially showing how metaphor is used to categorize new things, like a phone call counted 一本 because the phone lines are long and thin.

[@cesare3016]

very cool. What`s the name of the book?

Thanks for the video, it was cool. Slavic languages had counting words present in old forms but i suppose it was optional and only to elevate the status of written messages from one nobleman to another nobleman by looking more complete and serious and all that. Im very glad they are no longer around. I could share fun naming patterns in polish as a thank you for an insight. I do like the form that is full over graphics. Please dont bend to popularity once you reach it. * Specific names for body parts of each animal by species. * Any animal can have 4 legs but our rabbits specifically have 4 'jumps' (because only rabbits could jump). Any animal can have a tail but our rabbits have 'dodgers' (because people thought they help them make rapid direction changes). Any animal can have two ears but our rabbits have 2 'hears' (because their ears are very, very much for hearing). And so on. Nobody knows it besides animal nerds. I know them because i laughed a lot reading a nature book as a 4th grader. They stuck for how funny they sounded. * We classify mouths of things very specifically * * 'Usta' is for human mouth (or very rarily for entrances of very elegant things, like latin ostum for room entrances) * 'Morda' for beast/big animal mouths, like cows, elephants, horses and similar animals. * 'Pysk' is for smaller animal mouth, mouth of an animal that looks quite sleek like those of cats, dogs, wolves, rabbits, mice and so on. It is also fine to call it the mouth of fish because they are sleek enough unlike 'morda' of cows that are gross. * If the animal is small enough people uncosciously say 'pyszczek' for those of mice or hamsters with it being the smaller form of the above 'pysk'. I personally think it is more appropriate to use 'pyszczek' for mice. * 'Ryj' is colloquial for those of boars, pigs, that star-nose animal and so on. I hope anyone can figure out the pattern. It is sticking out and looks like it is used for digging. * 'Gęba' is a sort of hallow mouth of animals like squids or whales. Its safe to say it for mouths of all beasts of the ocean that are not fish. I cant quite describe it, i think it is the sort of thing that you know when you see it. * We classify animals depending on the gender or age. * Usually adult male, adult female, or adolescent. English had it too but english seems to have dropped it entirely. We still fairly often use it at least for the better known animals. All people who work with animals know the specific words and usually prefer them. For example: Boar: male boar - 'odyniec', female boar - 'locha', adolescent boar - 'warchlak'. The species name itself being 'dzik'. Cow: male cow - 'byk', female cow - 'krowa', adolescent cow - 'cielak'. The species name itself being 'krowa'. * We classify collectives of animals. * Like english but ours are not as complex and more common sense though i dont know too much about them. 'Stado' for a collective of 4 legged animals or birds 'Wataha' for a collective of wolves, wolf-like animals and boars 'Ławica' for a collective of fish 'Chmara' for non societal insects that fly in a single place, like flies 'Rój' for societal air insects like bees 'Kolonia' for societal land insects like ants Nobody ever needs to know more names unless working with animals English made up so many unnecessary words From the funny or very specific names for animal collectives we use 'Klucz' (lit. 'key') for birds that fly in a very specific shape like ducks. It is key because one opens the track for the rest. 'Litwa' (lit. 'lithuania') specifically for one species of bird 'kawka' (jackdaw, transliterated into english as 'little coffee' which i find cute). All other birds are 'stado'. I will never know why someone would name it for one specific bird. Crows are 'stado' though. No sense at all ;_; Very cool video.

5:46 Did you take the ramen bowl pattern from the flag of Iran? It repeats "Allahu Akbar."

[@lam1991hahaha]

Chinese people be like: guys, when we invent these counting words it was supposed to be regular and intuitive

[@forsteri4427]

As a chinese person I agree

Am I cooked? The pause at 1:50 made me expect "...a *game* theory" punchline was coming

[@CatFood5]

...A LANGUAGE THEORY!

[@doggosan2839]

aaah my brain

[@dn7949]

I mean, English has different grouping terms for animals like a murder of crows or a coincidence of jews. So it's not that dissimilar from Japanese.

This is just like thai but a lot more complicated

[@ibish9513]

Wonderful as always, though how in the hell do you find all these ge? What source could possibly have written a dozen method different ways to count arrows? Are they all written in that dictionary with a bazillion word words and drawing kanji in thirty or something bound book volumes?

[@maruhigakuen]

@ibish9513 most of these is either Those Yahoo websites that are like "YOU WONT BELEIVE HOW WE COUNT THESE" Whatever I can remember from my Grandma And the arrow thing is from a website I found dedicated to Kyudo and they have an entire page for counting various Kyudo stuff

[@brightblackhole2442]

3:08 i answered correctly and you were unnecessarily rude. i'm afraid i'm unsubscribing for this inconsiderate gesture
