Baelathwyn here. So proud to be finally featured! HMS However-the-Hell-You-Pronounce-It is not always the best choice in ranked but in that one game it worked really, really well. To be fair, I could have killed the Ohio a lot quicker but hey - it is what it is. Thank you for bearing with me!
@Phobos1083 This never seizes to amaze me. Does it occasionally save time? Yes, a fraction of a second. Does it make any other difference? No, it doesn't. People featured in these replays don't play for others to watch, so why would you even complain about it? If it bothers you you should complain about it to Jingles for featuring people not using shift. Grow up. I personally started using shift more because it feels smoother, but I couldn't care less what others do.
@H4FF Actually you're wasting 1-2 seconds which are very crucial in a pinch. Also yes, some people don't plan to be watched or hope to be featured by Jingles but that isn't the point. Also the man was being very nice and even congratulating him on his battle (which is more than what I would or even did say). Also if you're telling someone to grow up after that same person complimented the man and then gave some advice then I think you're the problem here.
Good game when your assigned random number generator page is fair. The problem is that that is occurring less and less frequently. When you see a detonation its the game cheating. All but one or two players from my clan have quit because they want a game where what the players do decides matches not the cheating game code
HMS Ambush. Firstly an 'A' class submarine launched in 1945 and the current incarnation is an 'Astute' class submarine launched in 2011. Does exactly what it says on the tin! 😁
no no no it's incorect it's defiantly the other way look for yourself HMS Incomparable as opposed to HMS Incomparable (now that makes sense, don't you think?)
I’ve been pronouncing it In-COM-parable my entire life and I am quite long in the tooth. I had never heard anyone at all pronounce it Incom-PEAR-able until this video. I have used it in speech in the real world quite often and have never had anyone tell me to pronounce it weirdly!
The bane of ranked is that many players who normally almost exclusively play random battles from the back of the map do not realise that ranked battles requires you to use your brawling skills or your team will lose. The Ohio didn't single handedly lose the game for his team, however he made sure that weaker ships on his team took more hits early on as he was not available as a target for most of the game, this made a difference. He also did not have targets to fire at at all times due to the islands blocking line of sight lowering the damage he did in the game. The only reason to be hiding from combat in ranked is if you have lost most of your health and are just trying to survive so as not to cost your team points with your sinking. For players who say the ship they play in ranked is not suited to brawling, you are playing the wrong ship, that is your fault and it will hurt your team's chances of winning, and yes I am talking to you yoshino players.
The KV-2 (old pre HE nerf version) of WoWS. In this case, the cold dead fingers of Winston Churchill rise from the depths of Hell to guide the beachball sized shells to the target.
I don't know if you've ever watched The Emperor's New Groove Jingles but your "Here's the special delivery you ordered" always makes me feel it should be followed up by a line from that movie. 😂
Once upon a time, the Yamato had the biggest guns in the game but got hit with power creep. Where does Wargaming go to power creep this thing? 750mm guns?
At least the biggest guns in the game are still on a Japanese ship, basically a Yamato with 510mm guns in the way of the Shikishima. Yamato and Musashi, although only by a few milimeters, still have the second largest guns in the game.
Got to love the 26 second reload. In real life, it would take over a minute for the crew to wrestle the huge shells and powder into place. But.. WG... lol. The Yamato took 40 seconds, minimum, to load and fire its guns in real life, for comparison. But, again, WG...
the quick pronounciation honestly sound better and is easier to pronounce, while the 'emphasis on the a' pronounciation makes it more clear what the word actually means
Jingles no matter how you say it. We will always love you. And I will never complain because I remember that one older viewer that always said you’ve got the “sexy voice that talks about penetration” hahahaha
Non-native English speaker here, I have to say that in-comparable sounded better than incompruhble. After a brief search, the wiktionary suggests the pronunciations /ɪŋˈkɒmp(ə)rəbəl/, /ɪŋkəmˈpærəbəl/, and the Cambridge Dictionary agrees, although the pronunciation examples they offer use the pronunciation you used throughout the video. So, HMS Incompruhble it shall be.
As a non-native speaker I thought it was really easy to pronounce it. How do you pronounce "comparable"? Well, this thing is "in-comparable". So for me it is like your first thought back then and not the fancy way like your mate said it.
I lived in England for well over a decade, married one and even attended a British university for grad school. I had to look up the pronunciation because sometimes I forget which is the American way of saying something, and which is the British. In this case, Jingles is right, according to Google.
I think both pronunciations ate technically correct. As an American, most of us would pronounce it the way you were afraid was wrong, and the way you're saying it does sound like a British pronunciation.
No matter what it is called us non-native English speakers or American as y’all call us Will from this points go with whatever jingles says as the pronunciation of this ship. All hail mighty overlord of the salt mines.
You are pronouncing it correct Jingles. "in-compare-able" is an incorrect pronunciation the american dialect provided which is nowadays widely accepted as well however.
Me seeing the ship: “what do you mean unpronounceable” Hearing Jingles say it: “Oh I see it now, yeah I say it the other way and I have no idea which way is correct”
For what it's worth, Incomparable has a lot of bad history around it. It's not particularly clear that Fisher saw this ship as a proper battlecruiser; the concept was not entirely clueless and was fairly forward thinking in terms of where naval tech was headed, namely in that traditional armor protection simply was not going to stand up to the potential firepower being chucked at them. It's a perspective that would not arrive until you have guided missile ships in the post-ww2 era, but it absolutely anticipated that having armor resisting the heaviest of firepower was not going to be a thing in the future, especially at increasingly extreme ranges yielding higher angles of fall for shells. Thus, by role, this ship was never intended to be a battlecruiser by any description save the abandonment of traditional primary battery resistance levels. This was instead seen as the future of the Battleship, dropping 20 inch shells on ships that could not be possibly armored to resist its guns. It was hardly an oversized ship, either; it was set to be 46,000 tons, which, while near the largest in the Royal Navy, and in fact matches what Hood had as standard, is not particularly absurd, and would put it on a tier with the North Carolinas, South Dakotas, and a good bit smaller than the Iowas. In fact, when you carve off the absolute bullshit treaty math done for the Nelsons and the KGVs, would not prove substantially larger than the actual full-load displacement of either class of Battleship. The only thing that ultimately made this design concept wholly unrealistic is the lack of actual guns capable of meeting the accuracy requirements and the fact that Carriers took the combat delivery of 2000lb packages of armor-defeating explosives to ranges of hundreds of miles beyond what the largest guns ever built could deliver on a target it deliberately was aiming at. That's my "Actually Jingles" for this one; thanks for the video as always.
As you are saying it, that is how google search pronounced it. in COM pra bul. The pronunciation comes a little from the definition... "can't be compared to..." "Can't compare it to anything" pointing to something of a quality that can't be matched. The "para" part of the word is kind of glossed over or said fast that it's not noticed as two syllables. It really bugs me when people misprunciationate stuff.
"...but nobody ever realistically thought they were going to build it, so they could just put whatever they wanted on it." This is every "Object" tank ever in World of Tanks. Lol.
I'm a Brazilian speaker of Portuguese and we have the word incomparable, which comes from the Latin incaomparabilis, and in Latin all letters must be pronounced. the Anglo Saxon equivalent would be unmatched, hope it helps
the correct pronunciation is, in fact, "in-COMPra-ble". Not "in-comPARE-able". So your introduction of the ship, you pronounced it correctly. Although your subsequent doubt is understandable - even for those of us who are native English speakers, English can be a rather annoying language. But yeah, your intro to the video, you pronounced it correctly the first time :D
Jimmy Carr had a great one-liner on this topic: “as a Brit English is our language, and you ruined it” to the aussies and Americans. “Incomproble” is how it’s pronounced “properly” 😂
Games can add in anything they want - it is pixels after all. Not a problem. I find it really frustrating that others seemto take out my main guns without any issues but I can't do the same when shooting at theirs.
How about pronouncing UK city/towns/villages names? Worcester, Quernmore, Frome, Bicester and so on? As a non-native English speaker is a hell of a challenge to pronounce these names
Even as a native brit I still have to take guesses sometimes. The root cause of this is the history of the british isles over the last several thousand years. There's an awful lot of history all stacked on top of itself, so placenames originated in multiple different languages at different times, and then evoved through later languages and lyrical shift to the point where it's crazy. There are a couple of places near my hometown in Scotland that what's written on the roadsign bears very little resemblance to the actual local pronunciation of the placename.
There are a few words that suffer from the pronunciation problem mentioned here. Like Caribbean. The word that really grinds my gears is the town of Bury. Somehow it's pronounced Berry?
"Indefatigable" always gave me far more issues than Incomparable, when it came to ship names. While I don't otherwise use the latter very much, it's still more than the former of those two.
I learned it as in-com-pruh-bull meaning vastly superior to other options, and UN-com-pair-a-bull meaning beyond compare to others (#1 best or worst). This is US, so your kilometerage may vary.
Both the OED and Websters agree it should be pronounced In-comp-ra-bil on both sides of the Atlantic. So avoiding In-com-pare-able is the correct thing ... good work.
I believe the first one was correct Jingles. The second is probably how it would be pronounced today but the name as a naval ship name dates back a ways and the first is how it would be pronounced in Ye Olde English AFAIK.
Baelathwyn here. So proud to be finally featured! HMS However-the-Hell-You-Pronounce-It is not always the best choice in ranked but in that one game it worked really, really well. To be fair, I could have killed the Ohio a lot quicker but hey - it is what it is. Thank you for bearing with me!

LMAO at Jingles being worried about pronouncing the ship's name wrong. If he gets the name of the ship correct, he's already batting above average!
And then calls it a “ba’l’cruiser.”
Guess the WoWs design didn’t include a double-T in there.

One of them is British, the other is a super Yamato. Everything else is super ships.
@@jaywerner8415 sure, but they said "we're not gonna do it at all, ever." Only doing it _a little bit_ is still doing it at all.
And now the upcoming Japanese battlecruiser line gets fantasy 457mm guns , even though Japanese "18 inch" were always 460mm.
"we will never add submarines into game" multiple times
Jingles moment. He actually manages to pronounce something correctly first time then proceeds to doubt himself.
He did something similar a few replays back, about HNoMS Stord.
Aye, you're pronouncing it correctly. Carry on, sir.
That's how I've always pronounced it, so at least you're matching the American pronunciation. Not that American and English are the same language 😊.
Aw fuck. Always thought it was arrr, ya know the other way
But that’s not how you say it’s, it’s in-kamp-e-reb-el , as nothing can be compared to it, not it can’t be compromised

Once upon a time, the Yamato had the biggest guns in the game but got hit with power creep. Where does Wargaming go to power creep this thing? 750mm guns?
anti-fortress cannons from any gundam series is when they will stop. :V
whatever it takes to overmatch 40mm is probably next
Cannons that can shoot all the salt that the players produce every day.
At least the biggest guns in the game are still on a Japanese ship, basically a Yamato with 510mm guns in the way of the Shikishima. Yamato and Musashi, although only by a few milimeters, still have the second largest guns in the game.
Give Yamato her Wave Motion Cannon.
somebody needs to teach some players that the shift button exist
Seriously. For some reason, my dad uses the scroll wheel in WoT and everytime he plays one of my tanks, he asks me how to zoom in lol.
Need to call this episode "Captain Twitchy". More accurate of a name.
Amen!
Jingles it's in the interface options menu if you want to see the full details without pressing alt.
Just when I need to go outside again? Jingles you callous bastard, couldn't you have been 20 minutes earlier?

06:13 From my non-playing admiralty armchair perspective, the Yamato not going for the ram here is what cemented Baelathwyn's team victory.
I feel like some of the enemy team did not know what the incomparable was capable of.
Baelathwyn here. Agreed. I actually thought my game was over right there, but the Yamato did not go for the ram and regretted it.
HMS Unpronounceable, what a meme of a ship. ❤

At least he didn't identify it as HMS Repulse
You're pronouncing it right, Jingles, with the flat 'a'.'
This was quite a heavyweight championship slugfest!
As a non-native speaker I thought it was really easy to pronounce it. How do you pronounce "comparable"? Well, this thing is "in-comparable". So for me it is like your first thought back then and not the fancy way like your mate said it.

The sound of those guns so good
The enemy schliefen got so scared that he retreated underwater
Oof! Trying to watch a replay with mouse scrolling zoom is downright painful.
that title gave me a really good chuckle
When referring to the ship, I always say "Incomparable".
But in every other instance I say "Incomparable".
See - English isn't hard.
You had the right pronunciation the first time.
But Jingles, the Oxford Dictionary - which I own (in my browser) - clearly states that it is pronounced Incomparable.
Tea break and jingles..... Perfect
We do not sleep for Jingles
You have the correct pronunciation Jingles 'incom-parable' not 'in - compare - able' 😀
You are pronouncing it correct Jingles. "in-compare-able" is an incorrect pronunciation the american dialect provided which is nowadays widely accepted as well however.
Jingles and the English language go together like peanut butter and jelly 😂😂
HMS Indefatigable is really the unpronounceable one
Hell, I can barely spell it most days
Me seeing the ship: “what do you mean unpronounceable”

"Inconceivable!" "You keep using that word, I do not think it memes what you think it Memes"
Have you seen Galaxy Quest? Someday someone will build this ship!
For what it's worth, Incomparable has a lot of bad history around it. It's not particularly clear that Fisher saw this ship as a proper battlecruiser; the concept was not entirely clueless and was fairly forward thinking in terms of where naval tech was headed, namely in that traditional armor protection simply was not going to stand up to the potential firepower being chucked at them. It's a perspective that would not arrive until you have guided missile ships in the post-ww2 era, but it absolutely anticipated that having armor resisting the heaviest of firepower was not going to be a thing in the future, especially at increasingly extreme ranges yielding higher angles of fall for shells.
Thus, by role, this ship was never intended to be a battlecruiser by any description save the abandonment of traditional primary battery resistance levels. This was instead seen as the future of the Battleship, dropping 20 inch shells on ships that could not be possibly armored to resist its guns. It was hardly an oversized ship, either; it was set to be 46,000 tons, which, while near the largest in the Royal Navy, and in fact matches what Hood had as standard, is not particularly absurd, and would put it on a tier with the North Carolinas, South Dakotas, and a good bit smaller than the Iowas. In fact, when you carve off the absolute bullshit treaty math done for the Nelsons and the KGVs, would not prove substantially larger than the actual full-load displacement of either class of Battleship.
The only thing that ultimately made this design concept wholly unrealistic is the lack of actual guns capable of meeting the accuracy requirements and the fact that Carriers took the combat delivery of 2000lb packages of armor-defeating explosives to ranges of hundreds of miles beyond what the largest guns ever built could deliver on a target it deliberately was aiming at.
That's my "Actually Jingles" for this one; thanks for the video as always.
If incomparable is too hard, just call it inimitable.
Admiral Jackie Fisher wanted to build them. According to his biography he ordered plans drawn up.
Good Morning Mighty Jangles
Is it just me or did holding the alt key not display what he wanted it to.
WG's approach to designing the Incomparable reminds me of the Bart Simpson quote "God, shmod-- I want my monkey man."
A big hug, Mighty Jingles.
Relax, you're just fine Jingles
I find that prounouncing incomparable as incomparable is incomprehensible. How dare you.
