🚨 I'VE STARTED A PODCAST! 🚨

Sorry to shout. Excited.

In "Words Unravelled" supreme word nerd and ace human being Jess Zafarris and I unravel the mysteries behind everyday terms.

Episode 1 is (appropriately) all about greetings.

👋Where does the word "hello" come from?
🇮🇹What's the surprising original meaning of "Ciao!"?
🇹🇭Why did Thailand officially change its national greeting?
🇫🇷What are the yucky origins of "Ça va" in French?

Be among the first to watch or listen:

Guess what? You can now watch my video about the world's tiniest language, Toki Pona, with TOKI PONA SUBTITLES.

Thanks so much to jan Mimoku and his helpers within the Toki Pona community for writing them for me.

If you've already seen the video, watch again with the subs on for an even better understanding of how this quirky language works.

SCAM ALERT FOLKS! Someone has been replying to comments on my videos claiming to be me and urging people to contact them on Telegram. *I have no Telegram account.* This is a scam. Do not engage with them. If you're in a position to report them, please do.

I also have no other YouTube channels. So if anyone contacts you from any channel other than this one, it isn't me.

Thanks everyone,
Rob

I've been on my travels again (another wedding). This trip took me to beautiful Cornwall in southwest England where they have their own language. Let me tell you a little bit about it.

No big new video today because I'm on my hols. However, I did make a brief stop during a sweaty bike ride in Spain to film this short. Enjoy!

To celebrate a modest subscriber milestone, here's a bonus language fact.

The word MYRIAD (meaning "many") comes from the Greek word μυριάς (myrias), which means...

10,000!

Thanks if you subscribed :)
