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.
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”.
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 ;)
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.
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.You should teach your teachers.
Now I’m doubly disappointed in your teachers.
Teacher here. My school uses everything Chrome OS and locks the ability to install extensions or other browsers. It’s not always us.
Woopsie! That’s what 7 years of Dutch grammar does to you.
Mine is capitalising everything because of German.

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.

Same. We should all collectively abandon ship and just learn Esperanto or something.
Not Everything, just Nouns.
EDIT: Woops, got confused myself

Use Firefox Mobile and ublock origin it will block ads on mobile
You’re not speaking to the teacher
@RobotZap10000 @Viri4thus you should teach the teacher…

One reason I switched to android TV.
Me neither, as I don’t use YouTube at all.
