1:02 Someone pointed out to me that only short Æ merged with A, while long Æ merged with a different phoneme.

, to be precise - hence the adoption of that spelling in later ME forms of Ǣ words.

When super popular things like this get stuff wrong it’s kind of painful They way they talk about it gives me the impression that they aren’t overly informed on the subject

I love how the correction for Ethel was correcting just an obvious joke and then that was it just corrected the joke with no sense of humor and then moved on

Nice, this needs more views. I definitely like the original video, but seeing this video made me see that some of the reasons letters were dropped were probably made up based on what sounded right. Glad to hear some of the actual reasons letters were dropped. Also, unrelated, but you have a nice voice.

Pokémon fan: what's your favourite trainer Me: Æ

Hurlebatte is dropping fucking Welkinfires on these boys.

Another example of why I wish more youtubers listed (or at least showed in the video) their sources, so someone could dig in further and decide for themselves whether or not they trust the video. Then 4 million viewers would not have to wait 2 years before the video they trusted was fact-checked.

I knew that W isn’t in Latin so I got confused when he said “Latin kids would say W X Y Z And per se and Edit: Also Latin doesn’t have J and U and pronunciation is in the bottom ah beh keh deh eh ehf geh hah ee kah ehl ehm ehn oh peh koo ehr ehs teh oo ehks igrega zeta

I have a feeling he just made up the reasons why they fell out of use

I feel like he made a guess and didnt properly distinct the guess from complete facts.

Wasn't the name for Eth in English "That"? I heard something along those lines in the Anglish Discord and just wanted to fact check.

@@subparlario4916 Actually, I just read a paper that argues that the manuscript I referenced a few days ago was really just using ð as an abbreviation for the word "that" rather than saying its name was "that". "However, just as the Cotton Titus manuscript lists as letters what we would call abbreviations, it seems equally likely that the Stowe 57 writer was doing the same and that ð was intended as an abbreviation for the word ðæt rather than the name of the letter." - The "Abecedarium" from British Museum Cotton MS.

That's what happens when someone listens to a casual user's video about some topic the person is not related. Also, most of this 'content creators' tends to copy-paste information from wikipedia or random curiosity websites without making sure if the info is real or not, besides just reading it plain instead of writing what they understood from it.
