Groot became a fan favorite right away despite, or perhaps because, he can only say the simple phrase "I am Groot". Now, so far in the MCU we've seen only two people able to fully understand the little twig - Rocket and Thor. What I want to know is, can you or I learn to speak Groot? Could it be a REAL language? Let's find out!

Imagine being born on that island that only speaks in whistles and not being able to whistle.

Never.
Ferb from “Phineas and Ferb” is also one of the beloved characters that doesn’t really say anything
that’s not an all the time thing though. There have been episodes where he breaks that character, and he actually talks. Full sentences I might add.
he speaks 1 sentence per episode
"I speak one sentence per day"
-"really"
"..."
Ferb ... he's more like an action guy, act rather than talk
@@DIRTkat_ofc Dangit I wanted to say that!
1:21 MatPat: "...huh, I haven't done a Guardians of the Galaxy episode."
The background: "Why Guardians of the Galaxy may be the best movie ever."
The ones with yellow text aren’t Matpat videos but rather one of the other channels he partnered with. Like Austin’s The Science on Game Theory. He used to do that a lot more in the earlier days of these channels.
@@rosewhipple7513 so thats why its THEORISTS instead of theorist
you can see a guardians of the galaxy episode at min 1.21 why guardians of the galaxy may be the best movie ever
Exactly
Imagine if he tricked us and just said those 5 things the whole video
Ya
I WISH THAT HAPPENED
Thanks for the likes it would be a theory probably the best theory he has done

The way I once explained the impact of stress:
ARE you the purple sponge? (Are you, or are you not, the purple sponge?)
Are YOU the purple sponge? (Are you the purple sponge or is it someone else?)
Are you THE purple sponge? (Are you the famous purple sponge or just some random spongeboy?)
Are you the PURPLE sponge? (Are you purple, or a different colour?)
Are you the purple SPONGE? (Are you a sponge or something else?)
In what context would you say any of this to another human being? No idea, but it's kinda funny.
*Are you a sponge or something else* XD that's funny
It's because of the weird literal interpretation of this sentence that we don't speak in a monotonous way, so yay to english
My favourite is "I never said she stole my money". Completely different meanings for every different stress placement

It's funny to me that Matt was completely able to distill his channel into five words. And it doesn't even matter which channel you're thinking -- it's accurate.

FYI, I'm not sure if you had intended on making some sort of original post with this comment of yours about any of the topics being discussed. It's certainly not like any kind of English that I've ever seen. I dunno, maybe some sort of half-assed hurried version of Sandscript?
Actually, wait, it just hit me. That part of the screen looks like a bunch of randomly aggressive chickens spent a good bit of time hanging around there.

There are also languages where meaning can depend on hand motions, facial expressions, or other visual stimuli as well. "You're an idiot" means something completely different if accompanied by a chuckle, smile, and a slow head shake.

so true tho
Thor knows the language he speaks.
Thor calls him Tree.
Groot's name is actually Tree.
But hey that's just a theory...
Joe B. Ik it’s a joke but rocket calls him groot
Maybe Rocket is just saying "Tree" in Groot's language.
@@bc0443 yes but groot also means tree so in a way...he might be right...

You should do a theory on how fast the polar express needs to be going so that it can make it to the North Pole and back. You could use the average bed time on Christmas break for a kid because they are just going to sleep when the polar express comes. For the time they get to the North Pole you could say that it was 12:00. This is because when the little boy (I forgot his name) finds his present from Santa he wants to open it, but the tag says don’t open until Christmas Day this means that it is before 1:00 which is technically morning. For the time they were in the North Pole you could use the record player. You could photoshop the record player next to the movie and count how many times it turns. You could look up the speed of a record player for that song and calculate the time. For going back it would probably be the same speed as going to the North Pole. This would just be an estimate but I think it would make a good episode for Christmas.
Amazing!
I agree
tl;dr, but I agree. He should definitely do that.
12:00 is morning I think
Yes!!! This would be amazing!

A very nice example of stress changing the meaning of words can be found in German

Yea I’m with you with love for the guardians of the galaxy movies.
I took the elective at Asgard, so I'm all set for speaking Groot.
* this comment was demonetized *
I AM GROOOOOOOOOOOOOT
I just realized that "demonetized" has "demon" in it..
Demonetized I failed that class... I only Leared the line “I am groot”
I think it means... I am groot... but idk lol
I am gwoot
When Groots race speak they speak with subsonic frequencies. They modify those frequencies to communicate along with everything else you mentioned.
This. It's like taking the concept of tonal languages and cranking it up to a level far beyond what basic humans are able to perceive.
Basically just 🤯 mind blown
.......my brain just melted....*mind blown voice* I am Groot.......ermahgerd...
@Jari van der Veen It was mentioned in one of the comics. I don't remember which one.
Michael Daniels but then how do people understand Groot if they can’t perceive those tones?
In music tamber is kinda everything.
Matt should make a 4 channel called internet theory or something like that where he goes over conspiracies or trends or even memes
I learned more in this video than from my English class.

I finally understand what it means when a word or syllable is stressed. I appreciate that! 7:39
There is a reason no one else uses the phrase "I am Groot" when speaking to Groot. There is a component of Groot's speech that we, the audience, are not privy to.
This may be an audio component, but as Quill's universal translator was unable to convert Groot into usable sentences for Quill in the first Guardians movie, this is unlikely the case.
More likely is that there is a chemical component to the language that one must learn to apply to the verbal components. Groot may give off smells when he speaks or other chemical markers detectable by several species.
Even more likely is there is a telepathic component to his speech that takes time to understand.
Most likely, though is that there is a biological component that takes hold over time allowing other species to understand Groot if they spend enough time around him, like spores that a Groot gives off that get into the system of animals and change their brains in a way that allows them to understand Groot even if they themselves are not able to speak it.
This would also explain why it is a popular elective among Asgard's student population and Thor in particular as it likely requires little more than hanging around a Groot for a semester until the biological component takes root...so to speak.
This is epic theory comments
You won the trophy for best theory in a theory video comment section !
Jokes aside, this seems very possible, also if you can speak this way, (telepathically ) to other non groots, then the possibilities for things like espionage, codes, and plain pranking are opened tenfold! Your enemy catches you? Speak groot, they haven't been near one long enough
This also explains why the others in the second movie get better at understanding him.
Well aren’t you fun at party’s

Hey MatPat, you should do a film theory on Rise of the Guardian for your next video.
I love it when Matpat first mentions pitch the music score is the mario song...lol
Hey man, ya’ can’t forget Ferb
He barely talks, so you are right
Even tho ferb barely talks, but when he does he can actually hold a conversation. So i think Perry would be a better choice.

Except “I am Groot” is not used as a single word. It is used to express entire ideas - in which case you could only say some 170k different ideas, not words.
Can you give me the difference between "Idea" and "Word" in this context?
Quintar Farenor I think they mean sentences/phrases as well as single words
@@QuintarFarenor An idea typically takes a complex series of words with a lot of shared background and at least some jargon (words used only in or regarding specific topics). A word only conveys a very small piece of information. Each word has it's distinct purpose, but many sentences can still be understood perfectly well if a random word is removed.

I’ve begun learning Portuguese cause the girl I love has Portuguese roots. It’s a lot of fun to do because it makes me feel closer to her (even though she doesn’t know the language) but through her I’ve discovered a LOVE for linguistics. It’s such a magical feeling when you see a foreigner struggle to express themselves so you speak their language and you see their eyes light up with joy and you get to make a new friend! Being able to communicate with any and everyone really sets you in new horizons. I love being able to be so connected to the world and I love how linguistics has that special effect to bring you closer to everyone around you. Hopefully I keep going and am able to speak many languages, it’s truly a passion of mine I haven’t pursued as much as I should
Just saying the five words at the beginning of the video for the whole video and translating through captions would have been legendary.
