Let me show you a bunch of cool patterns within the words we use for numbers in English, and some surprising traits that show up when numbers are given names in a language!
Next episode (coming out on March 12th) is the 2nd last episode of Grade -1, and will be my unique version of a "final exam" (it will be a fun video even for people who hate tests). If anybody wants to "study" for the exam, you can rewatch older episodes on this channel (most of the questions will require a mix of some knowledge from one of my episodes and some problem-solving and/or basic arithmetic from you). After that, later in March, will be the Grade -1 finale, which will be like a documentary about making this crazy grade and transitioning to Grade -2.
During March I will be livestreaming on my @Domotro channel every Monday at 10 AM Pacific Time, and every Thursday (except March 2nd) at 6 PM Pacific Time, so stop by some of those if you want to see some fun random activities and/or ask me anything in the chat. (They also will be timestamped with chapters afterwards for people who can't watch them live).
