    His voice tells me that he is verified to do this,

    I’m 35 and I’ve been hearing my kids saying these terms all the time. When I ask them what it means they tell me nothing. Thanks for enlightening me.

    Fanum himself once said that his nickname came from "phantom"

    Bro is etymologymaxxing 🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️💯💯💯 For real though I love the effort that you put into this video and the knowledge in linguistics that you have! I would love to see more videos like this!

    "Pogchamp" originated from the death of Jesus Christ. "Pati" meant reflections of the suffering and death of Jesus Christ. Pati became Passio, later Passion from Italian to English. Passion+fruit= passionfruit, and Passion is the P of POG, a Hawaiian drink in which the caps became a 1990s collectable. Gutierrez gaped his mouth on a Twitchstrem when reviewing the Pog toys, and the rest is rizztory

    This video strongly reminds me of another video called "being a historian in the year 3023 part 2" by burialgoods

    This video was pretty skibidi, I feel like this gave me w sigma aura. Only in Ohio would such a Fanum Taxable video be created, you truly are the Gyat GOAT.

    Also gyatt originated in African American vernacular. It is a shortening of god damn, as you had stated, but it isn't a melding of the two words, rather it stemmed from the pronunciation of "god" in the phrase, so "god damn" ae -> "gyatt dayum" aave -> "gyatt" il
  • "Skibidi" originates from Skibidi Toilet, the song from Skibidi Toilet is based on a Bulgarian song from 2022 called Dom Dom Yes Yes, where the word was said as "Shtibidi" or "Щибиди". If you translate "Щибиди" into English, it means something along the lines of "Chickpea". So the song literally means 🎵Brrrrr Chickpea Dom Dom Dom Dom Dom Yes Yes Yes Yes🎵!

    It's more likely that Sigma (the name of the letter) came from the letter Samekh, as it seems the names of the Greek S-like letters were somehow shuffled

    Judging by your voice, you are clearly not an adult yet and I'd guess that you are about 13-16 years old and I have to say that if this is true, it is very impressive how high the quality of this video is. The things on the screen move dynamically with what you are saying and display a lot of information and your jokes and transitions are genuinely great. I think that it is incredible that somebody your age is so passionate about linguistics and also manages to pull off a video of the same quality that an adult would create.
  • @heyitsdave8667
    most underrated video in the linguistic community for real
  • As someone who is interested in languages, but despises Gen Alpha slang, this video has been very entertaining to watch.
  • @Swenthorian
    Damn! I'm a linguist, and I thought I was precocious for being able to pronounce essentially the whole IPA in high school. Your voice hasn't even dropped yet! What a head start!
  • @mrdebdeb
    Gyatt is just a clipping of "Gyattdamn" which was an exaggerated way of saying goddamn in AAVE
  • @nikitakrim02
    Diss as in "a diss track" comes from disrespect, wherein dis-, a latin prefix, comes from PIE *dus-, "bad", not *deh1s, "godhood". Instead, the later, the origin of Fanum, gives english Dis, as in "Disar", the norse goddeses. The former, tho, is an origin of such compounds as iranian dusman(bad mind), used in afgan wars as a slur, and slavonic dozhd(bad sky), the rain.
