Also "Tafel" is an older German word for table. Arthur's "Knights of the round TABLE" in german are the "Ritter der TAFELrunde". (there probably is some ethymological connection between "blackboard" and "table" in german) So Gary was more right than you thought. Also that mountain in german is also called "Tafelberg" ;)

Given that most animals and some plants rate as 'sentient', I'm not so sure that's true. On the other hand, a true AI would (usually) still not be sentient. It would, however, be sapient, and while some definitions of sapient allow for more than just humans to count, the list of sapient species (and others) is still very short. ...

It's a service called Caption+ by JS*/Jacob Star. Tom uses it for most of his videos, and some other youtubers in the sphere also (I know they're also used on Jet Lag The Game and maybe Wendover Productions main channel videos too? I know plenty of others but not off the top of my head, but yes. Caption+ is incredible, the colour coding and rich formatting, the context awareness, the way it all helps to match and convey as much of the intent of the audio track as possible, and also on other videos that use them they even dynamically change position if there's an overlay on screen, so for example if there's a scoreboard or bar at the bottom during a section the captions will move out of the way so that everything is readable! Truly the gold standard.

Sorry to correct you, but Tafel _is_ German for table (though a little archaic/pompous). Still used in things like "Tafelwasser" or "Tafelapfel", things meant for consumption at the table (as opposed to baking the apples into pies). There is also the (Schul-)Tafel, the blackboard, yes, and that will be more in common use today. And "berg" is often found in city names because they're just close to a mountain. Nürnberg for example.

Many cities in Germany end on "-burg", with "Burg" meaning "castle". Sometimes it is changed over time to "-berg", but sometimes "-berg" is actually derived form "Berg" meaning "mountain". So it is not always clear, why any German town name ends in "-berg".

A little bit of citations: In German, you can use "Tafel" to describe a table as well. I never heard it out of the context of food being served, like if a table is set for lunch or dinner with all the food on it, there's some old saying calling it a Tafel, and I can't say I ever heard it being used in a normal setting. Also the round table of King Arthur is called the "Tafelrunde" That's why the type of mountain - mesas, mountians with a big plateau instead of a peak - are called Tafelberg in German in general as well, it's not just that one mountain.

To answer what Gary wanted to know about the -burg suffix in German place names, a "Burg" is a fortificated structure in German. So places ending in -burg got that suffix from their fortifications. "Citizen" is "Bürger" in German, with an ü, which does alter its pronounciation. Although having looked it up, apparently the etymology of it is that a Bürger is someone who is protected, so it actually is connected to "Burg" in a way.

I had nearly tuned out. The 'non-sentient' gag made me pay just enough attention to go 'Wait, did he just...?' and rewind to confirm that Tom did, in fact, fling the card away for no sensible reason. At least I hope there's no sensible reason.

The fact that I'd been rewatching Numberwang clips lately, and Matt came out of left field and referenced it at 8:57 (tangentially, That's Numberwang!) caught my ass so off-guard

You didn't get Tafel wrong. It does indeed also mean table in german, it's just an archaic version. Infact the "Knights of the Round Table" are referred to as "Ritter der Tafelrunde" in german.

13:00 The Spongegbob Bikini Bottom comes from the show being set at the bottom of the sea around the Bikini Atoll. And yes that was probably chosen for the swimwear joke.

Also, can't believe this is the second time I remember "most common" and "secondmost common" surnames of Wales have made an appearance on Reverse Trivia (last time was in the Experiments era, namely Experiment 2 "Reverse Trivia, but this time with video") - it also had Chris solve the question

This time the show was entirely in tune with my form in the moment, as well as an excellent time to turn off the screen and head for the bedroom to catch som well needed zee-zees. 😄 edit: This week's episode seemed very on point and in tune to keep the spirits lifted. Very well done, good job. Thank you very much, folks! 😎👍

Tafel is also used for Table in German. It's more used in a fine dining or festive occasions or for bigger old tables. While its not as common as it was its still used in different ways. Tafel is the name of a german NGO that collects food from stores and provide free meals. "tafeln" means to eat well "auftafeln" means to prepare the table for the meal Tafelrunde literally means roundtable... specifically the Arthus Saga one. I would say it's slowly fading out of use.

"Tafel" can be table in German, but usually in the sense of those grand banquet tables. "Bürger" for citizen come from "Burg" which is castle, because it originally referred to the people living in the area of the castle (I think)
