I 674 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 2: went to the karaoke booth and practice singing it two hours. 675 00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:02,760 Speaker 2: So it's pretty easy for that song to get stuck 676 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 2: in my head, but hard to believe. People were shocked 677 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 2: about George Michael being out of this gay after he 678 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 2: released a song with a face of a lover with 679 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 2: a fire in his heart, a man under cover. 680 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 4: But you tore me apart in the lyrics. 681 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 2: Of course, people don't actually pay attention to lyrics, considering 682 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 2: how many churches did the Macarena, which is a song 683 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 2: about a woman cheating on her boyfriend with two of 684 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:25,760 Speaker 2: his friends.

Check out the 691 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 2: links below.

You're not substitute another sound for it. 703 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 2: The English language has inconsistencies and regularities dealing with pronunciations, 704 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 2: felling and grammar.

But every once in a while he gets 714 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 2: to y'all before we can, so I don't got to 715 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 2: do it, and I appreciate it's he helping me out 716 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 2: around here. He said, yes and no walk and walk 717 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 2: even for those who do not pronounce that L are 718 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 2: different for a large group of Americans who differentiate between 719 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:08,879 Speaker 2: the A, the R, A I, A H, and the. 720 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 4: Sometimes a W sound. 721 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 2: This lack of differentiation differentiation can be frustrating to those 722 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,120 Speaker 2: who can tell the difference between dawn d A w 723 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 2: N and Don d O N. Walk is more complicated 724 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 2: in that there are several pronunciations, it goes through all 725 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 2: of them, and because there are many people around the 726 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 2: world who actually pronounce the L. The inclusion in Connections, 727 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 2: that's so what it's all started, guys, is blasphemous and 728 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 2: an insult to the English speaking world. That's my fucking point. 729 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 2: It shouldn't be in Connections if your personal like predilections 730 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 2: is like listen, man, I don't I don't even hear 731 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 2: the L when I say it or whatever. Cool if 732 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 2: you're from Boston and y'all say walk and ki, fine, 733 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 2: But that the Connections is for the world and so 734 00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 2: for you to be like all these have a sound L, 735 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 2: knowing that a lot of English speakers do pronounce that 736 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:06,239 Speaker 2: L and it does affect the pronunciation of that L A. 737 00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 4: It's some bullshit. 738 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 2: Also, because dictionaries, even onlinees, have limited space they tend 739 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 2: to simplify words and the two standard pronunciations. Those pronunciations 740 00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 2: often have meant more common pronunciations, especially the lack of 741 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 2: Indian pronunciations. Half a billion of whom speak English as 742 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,879 Speaker 2: a native language. Numbers are often misrepresented because even though 743 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 2: they speak it as a native language, they do not 744 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,120 Speaker 2: list it as a first language. Sorry, here is the 745 00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,080 Speaker 2: rant of the linguists who happens to be cunning. 746 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 4: Thank you. Your linguism came in Your linguistic came in 747 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:35,520 Speaker 4: the hand. 748 00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Because my thing is, like I understand, you know, 749 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: people saying this pronounced this with is pronounced that way. 750 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: I get that, y'all, But there's so many pronunciations of 751 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: it that that's the problem. The problem is that that 752 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 1: there's not a standard pronunciation of it. So I'm like Roger, 753 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,040 Speaker 1: that's why I should be included in connection. 754 00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, don't just don't put it in a puzzle, right, 755 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,480 Speaker 2: y'all want to argue about amongst yourselves, Fine, But I 756 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 2: feel the same way if it was, like, uh, if 757 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 2: if one of the connections was like the four word, 758 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 2: the four things that go together are I don't know, lemonade, 759 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 2: sweet tea? 760 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 4: Uh? What else. I don't know, candied apples and grits. 761 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:24,399 Speaker 2: And you were like, what's the thing in common? They said, 762 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,839 Speaker 2: all things serve with sugar. I'm like, but then, but 763 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 2: that's not true. Y'all know that that's that people are 764 00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:33,720 Speaker 2: not serving grits with sugar. 765 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:35,280 Speaker 4: That is not a thing that is happening. 766 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,359 Speaker 2: You can't go to a restaurant now you might put 767 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 2: and then people that eat sugar grits were right in like, 768 00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 2: but I love sugar in my grip. Sometimes I thought, 769 00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 2: take grits and just put them in sugar, and it's 770 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 2: like that. It shouldn't be in connections, is my point. 771 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 2: It shouldn't be connections. You know, that's a very specific. 772 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 2: The point of connections is that we can all do 773 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:56,239 Speaker 2: the logical deductions back to this is why these things 774 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 2: are in a row?

But 1224 00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:42,160 Speaker 1: if you're listening, you kind of pick up on those things. 1225 00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:45,600 Speaker 1: Like when we was doing the marriage show and Kevin 1226 00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:47,240 Speaker 1: went able to make it and his wife was then 1227 00:58:47,280 --> 00:58:49,959 Speaker 1: me and you were just talking about our relationship and 1228 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:52,840 Speaker 1: us being young, were talking because this is natural to us, 1229 00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 1: and they were like, let's rewind, like that was kind 1230 00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:58,640 Speaker 1: of quick and kind of fast, and and for me, 1231 00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:00,600 Speaker 1: I didn't even think about it from that, but I 1232 00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:04,160 Speaker 1: was like, oh, that would make sense from from somebody 1233 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:07,040 Speaker 1: else's perspective that these decisions were make in such a 1234 00:59:07,160 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 1: type And unless you know that the people interviewing you 1235 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:13,280 Speaker 1: are listening, they care about your answers, they care what 1236 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:18,320 Speaker 1: you're saying. So yeah, man, like I said, I appreciate 1237 00:59:18,360 --> 00:59:20,880 Speaker 1: the compliment on the interview because it does mean a 1238 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:22,160 Speaker 1: lot to us. 1239 00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:25,160 Speaker 4: And lastly, the poe is do you have hypervigilance. 1240 00:59:25,720 --> 00:59:29,840 Speaker 2: I'm surprised at the results of the poll because it's 1241 00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:36,080 Speaker 2: so high yes, seventy two, No, twenty seven, twenty eight percent. 1242 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 2: I really thought it would have been the opposite, because 1243 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:44,680 Speaker 2: I feel like having this is one I don't see 1244 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:46,840 Speaker 2: a lot. I don't feel like it's a kinship with 1245 00:59:46,880 --> 00:59:50,600 Speaker 2: a lot of people. Whenever, like whenever I'm in a situation, 1246 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:51,960 Speaker 2: I'd be like fuck. 1247 00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:58,280 Speaker 1: And also when you say hypervigilance, some people might be 1248 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:01,160 Speaker 1: like that in one area not another area. And then 1249 01:00:01,200 --> 01:00:04,560 Speaker 1: also we say hypervigilance is a difference between being hypovengrigenous 1250 01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:07,720 Speaker 1: online and being hypervengulance in person. Oh yeah, that's true 1251 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 1: that question.

But I feel like sometimes that leads 1304 01:02:25,800 --> 01:02:29,080 Speaker 2: people into places where they overstep or they feel like 1305 01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:36,920 Speaker 2: the like their behavior that I shouldn't normalize, Like like, 1306 01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:39,800 Speaker 2: if you're talking to me and it's three in the morning, 1307 01:02:40,600 --> 01:02:42,440 Speaker 2: that's not that's not normal. 1308 01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 4: I'm sleep.

So if I see 1311 01:02:51,040 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 2: it at say I get up at six or something, 1312 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 2: or even if I was somehow awaken three, I would 1313 01:02:56,600 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 2: be like, hey, buddy, you know you're good.
