    Just finished watching this video, and I must say it's really impressive. The level of dedication and time you've put into creating such engaging and informative content is evident. Your broad knowledge of the topic and the clever incorporation of Star Wars references make it a unique and enjoyable watch. Your hard work is inspiring. Keep up the great work!

    Like you, my first language is Polish, although I have lived most of my life in the USA. Also, like you, I have experience with computer programming, and I have learned at least a dozen computer languages over the years to some degree of fluency.
    I have a theory that programmers who are speakers of Slavic languages are often comfortable with functional languages or with reading and writing expressions in computing languages in various ways because speakers of Slavic languages (maybe not all of them, but at least a couple with which I am familiar) are comfortable with various orders of subject, verb and object.
    With arithmetic, English speakers always want to write expressions with infix notation (2 + 4 = 6). In many functional languages, you generally use prefix notation (+ 2 4) to express the sum of 2 and 4. Several computing languages allow you to mix prefix and infix notation.
    I've worked as a programmer on teams of native English speakers who spoke no other languages, and I've noticed that sometimes these programmers would complain when I would make extensive use of map/reduce or other functional paradigms in languages that support either functional or procedural (or OO) programming. The mono-lingual English speakers would often want to reduce my expressions to multiple simple, procedural forms, whereas multi-lingual programmers on the team would tend to be comfortable with a greater variety of programming expressions.

    I came across a vid some time ago, that I really wish I'd saved, because it made an interesting claim: programming languages, as used in computing, don't distinguish between subject and object. To be clear, that's at the level that the programming language enforces the grammar. Programmers can, of course, arbitrarily designate subjects and objects; it's just that the compiler doesn't care. Since then, I've been very interested in what it means in human language that we care about subject and object. And, also in that video, there was a statement that certain areas in the brain involved in the processing of grammar are adjacent to areas involved in tool use. So, I've been tentatively relating SVO to material, tool, product. I've managed to find some research on this, but it seems really preliminary. Still, I'm thinking about this quite a bit.

    When yoda messes with English grammar, we understand him, but if i mess with japanese gramma (SOV, sometime S is left out intentionally) no one will ever get it :))))

    You probably figured this out by now, but the in universe name for the common language in Star Wars is called "Aurebesh" or Galactic Basic. Thanks for the lesson, its very trippy to to think about all of that while knowing a lot about a bit about the back story about how humans showed up in the Star Wars galaxy. It would be fun to see you do a video on the Wookie language: "Shyriiwook". It has been specifically explored a bit in the SW game Knights of The Old Republic. In the game it is mentioned that the dialect was specifically structed to be difficult for non Wookies to understand, but they respect any outsider who manages it without a droid or some translation device. There is also another Yoda species member in this game as well who speaks perfect basic; hinting that he may have been raised off his home planet and around basic speakers.🤓

    As someone who is a native English speaker learning a language that uses SOV I feel is like trying to write a sentence from both directions, you have to have the whole sentence laid out before it even starts to take shape.

    Pretty interesting how OSV lines up with John 1:1-3 and Genesis 1:1-3 and does not map to language diagram bars.

    12:47 No they dont. Polish is Slavic language, And English is Germanic language.

      Both Slavic and Germanic languages ​​are the same Indo-European language family. You are confusing language families with subgroups.
