My high school band director was a reddithead and showed us this song on YouTube, like, the WEEK it came out.
So both he and the whole band got to experience together as it went viral and overplayed months after we were all sick and tired of it
thank you for this interview @hankgreen 🫶🏽(and the impending series which I can't wait to see more of!) listening to Brennan talk about anything, but especially teaching, means so so much to me
@hunterx11 I’m just a dude who took Latin in high school. If you actually have a position on this you know more than me. I don’t know anything about the prescriptivism/descriptivism debate. Peace ✌🏽
@hunterx11@GurtTheFrog@LaskerF61740@AChillGhost Hey pal, I thought you had a question and I took a crack at it. Not looking to spar. Thought you needed help but I see that’s not the case. I’ll leave you to it
@hunterx11@GurtTheFrog@LaskerF61740@AChillGhost In English, we don’t always denote tenses by prefix/suffix. Many tenses use “to be” verbs in addition to the main verb (Present “am (verb)ing”, Future will (verb))
In English Perfect tenses, we do this by combining “to be” verbs w/ forms of verbs that also function as adjectives
@hunterx11@GurtTheFrog@LaskerF61740@AChillGhost So:
Sentences saying “I have (verb)ed”, “I will have (verb)ed”, “I should have (verb)ed” are in a family of tenses called Perfect Tense. English developed these tenses by attempting to emulate Latin.
In Latin, the tense is included in the verb via an appropriate suffix/prefix.
