Those YouTube ads everyone hates made $10.4 billion in just three months
If you've ever wondered why YouTube goes so hard on ads when they make the experience so miserable, well, there's your answer.
You're viewing a single thread.
What youtube ads, I haven't seen one in years, fortunately.
I have to see them at school all the time, because our
teacher'steachers don't bother installing adblockers.teacher's
Now I'm doubly disappointed in your teachers.
Woopsie! That's what 7 years of Dutch grammar does to you.
Mine is capitalising everything because of German.
At least German is consistent, unlike English where every so-called "rule" nearly has more exceptions than places it applies. As a native speaker I'm always amazed that anyone manages to learn our train wreck of a language.
Same. We should all collectively abandon ship and just learn Esperanto or something.
English has its pitfalls, but is in many ways incredibly simple.
Plus it's everywhere, and the best way to learn a language is to use it.
English is 3 or 4 languages melded into one.
There's the Germanic old English which gives most of the base language. This is mixed with Norse from the viking invasions. Then aristocratic French came in around 1,000 years ago. Underneath it all, some regions have Celtic influences.
Of course there aren't consistent rules.
Dutch is way worse than English regarding inconsistencies it’s not even funny.
Sadly Dutch is adapting to make some thing “proper” Dutch which where never proper Dutch and sound wrong to every native Dutch speaker. Like “groter als jij” instead of “groter dan jij”.
I'm not sure what you mean here. As far as spelling goes, Dutch is far more consistent than English.
You're mentioning some none-standard Dutch which is often perceived as incorrect (and it is indeed according to the rules of the standard language norm). Yet, if you were correct in your claim that 'groter als jij' was 'never proper Dutch and sound[s] wrong to every native Dutch speaker', no native Dutch speaker would ever use 'groter als jij'. Native Dutch speakers do this often, though, and have been doing it at least since the seventeenth century (eg. this quote from 1670: 'Zy [de vrucht ”Peci”] is niet veel groter als een kastanie …, vol sap en aengenaem van smaek: herder dan een gemeine appel, en een weinig zuurachtig,' - 'It [the fruit "Peci"] is not much bigger than a chestnut ..., full of juice and pleasantly tasting: harder than a common apple, and a bit sourish,').
Sorry to have gone so off-topic here, though.
Not Everything, just Nouns.
EDIT: Woops, got confused myself
The plural -s in Dutch only gets an apostrophe if the stem word ends on an open vowel. So it's cavia-cavia's on the one hand, but kikker-kikkers on the other (and la[de]-lades). So even in Dutch this'd be incorrect ;)
Teacher here. My school uses everything Chrome OS and locks the ability to install extensions or other browsers. It's not always us.
Use Firefox Mobile and ublock origin it will block ads on mobile
You're not speaking to the teacher
You should teach your teachers.
@RobotZap10000 @Viri4thus you should teach the teacher...
Are you blocked from installing browser extensions?
When I watch YouTube on the Roku in my bedroom I see ads and it's terrible. If I see a 30 second ad I go back and hit play again, usually I have to do that two or three times and then I get a 5-second skippable ad. Even then I'm often only two or three minutes into the video before it plays another ad.
One reason I switched to android TV.
Me neither, as I don't use YouTube at all.
