I say Water but in England most people say Wotah.
I say Car but in England most people say the sound that a Crow bird makes, Caw.

In the USA they spell some words differently than in England or Canada.

I do not say, "they are not matching exactly". In English we say, "they are not the same" or "they are not identical".
I wrote Grammatically Incorrect :
"Do you know why they are not the same?"

correct : Do you know, why are they not the same ?


I assume English Grammar rules are same everywhere.

It was just an examples to show you that Nobody is born wise. Make mistakes , learn from them and grow up.

Thanks

Your only mistake is one you had no control over when it comes to Audio. It's where you were born, not all of us here feel the same way, just ignore him.
Yes, I already know about my weakness.
You would have hardly seen me replying him.

The elephant keeps walking as the dogs keep barking - An old Indian proverb
Taming a barking dog is like trying to stop the rain. But if you look inside yourself you do have the power to tune them out by being an elephant that keeps on going on. I have read all the comments and took it in positive way and yes i need to improve myself.

I tried with some background music. Could you rate how much it improved now.
I suppose I could see some value in a video like this if the process of making it helps the author himself to learn. It might also be useful to someone who cannot read and must learn everything through verbal instruction.

But to anyone else, why sit through 5+ minutes of tedious, heavily-accented, barely comprehensible English to learn what can be much, MUCH more easily and comprehensively learned, in less than a minute, from a basic electronics textbook or from a well-written article or application note such as either of the ones attached here?

Frankly, I consider trying to learn electronics from YouTube videos to be an utter waste of time.

I am not supposed to talk about it anymore so I am simply quoting from OBW0549 who agrees with me:
Why is he still posting his "heavily-accented, barely comprehensible English" videos here?
I noticed that the echoes are still there. I did not notice the music.

What happened to this guys permanently ban?

Racism has no place in this world anymore. This thread is pure racism under the guise of critiquing this persons’ presentation skills. Ridiculous. Sickening.

@mishra87 Ignore AG by using the Ignore function in the forum and keep posting videos! Lots of them!

tindel, exactly! When did AG become the standard of online videos/tutorials? Are they giving out"Scroogies" like the "Emmys"?

I told him a few times that him and his written posts are fine here. The problems are the narration and echoes in his videos.
Today I watched a video from Australia about the fires and the accent was also difficult to understand.
Today I watched another video on TV from China about the virus and the English was completely impossible to understand, no subtitles.

There is a new video here in the Off Topics forum about the Corona Virus. It shows many cars in China crashing into things and blames the virus as the cause. Is it racist to say the race of the drivers??
