@@jujucasar2003 Some people actually believe that. But hey, genius of Thales was he measured the height of pyramid from trig alone. Now what if you are stranded?
I mean.. sure. But at the same time they have, presumably, 5th graders on the show who do answer every question as well and they use their answers at times, as you know. Every question asked has to be answerable by a 5th grader. In that respect i do see it as being smarter than a 5th grader
@@MaGiCFanz12 It's things they teach you up to 5th grade. Like anything else you lose it if you don't use it. Most these questions look like something that would be on a test that you would only remember if you had to study the subject that week.
That's because it's a linguistic term, not a mathematics term. In linguistics, st/nd/rd words ("first", "second", "third", etc.) are called ordinals, in contrast to cardinals. Actually, "cardinal number" does exist in set theory as a way to describe the size of a set, but I assume that's too advanced for this show.
The question how many adjectives was wrong. It is not two . It is 4. A type of adjective is an "article". An aticle is an adjective and the only articles are "a" and "The". I know this, I am in six grade. Adjectives answer questions such as "Which?". Which dog? It is THE dog and same thing applies to the other "the"
I'm an American, and whenever I watch the American version of this, I feel so smug, as I know so many answers. Watching this really humbles me, and makes me with I could learn more. Edit: Why nursury rymes? I guess that's culture. That is part of learning. So far, I've only the known the adjective question and the pokemon one (oddly since I don't watch the show).
MrBagginsEsq: Nursery rhymes is basically the Trick Question Category. Almost no adult will remember them unless they're parents. In Sweden, we just have the category "Music". If it's 1st to 2nd grade music, it'll undoubtedly be a nursery rhyme or children's song and almost no one ever gets it right.
I didn't know what a cardinal number was I had guessed double, but it turns out to be any number you count with (same as positive integers and natural numbers?). I think its related to sets and stuff. Ordinal numbers are like 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so on.
dinbri Cardinal numbers : 1,2,3,4 ......20, 35 etc. Ordinal numbers : 1st, 2nd,3rd,4th, 48th, 99th etc. In fact you use them everyday without knowing what they are.
Kevin Howard Not exactly . 0 to 9 are figures. With these figures you can form numbers. It is like the difference between letters and words. Consider figures to be letters in maths and numbers to be words. So of course you have words with one letters and you have numbers with one figure. Cardinal numbers are : 1, 2,3,4, never stop you can always ad 1. Ordinal numbers ( because they show an order) are : 1st,2nd,3rd,4th, 28th,59th etc.
Cardinal numbers are numbers that tell you how many of something there are (1, 2 ,3, 4...), and "first", "second", "third", etc... are expressing the ORDER of something
Pluto IS still a planet, we just have more classes of planets. We have terrestrial (rocky) planets, gas giants, ice giants and dwarf planets. Pluto was not "demoted" or downgraded. It was reclassified.
Newmaidumosa I have to ask if YOU are kidding. Do you not even know word definitions? I copied this DIRECTLY from the Webster's dictionary page for the definition of "butter" : a solid yellow substance made from milk or cream that is spread on food or used in cooking : a food made from cooked fruit or roasted nuts that have been ground up Peanut butter qualifies as "butter" under the second definition That leaves you in error with the example you used. Peanut butter IS in fact butter. In the same way Pluto is a TYPE of planet. It has "planet" right in the name there. Actually, yes, the Attorney General IS a General. In this context "general" means "leader". Word have more than one meaning, they are not always used in their most common context. Sometimes they have more general (there's that word again) meaning. Such as the terms "legally drunk" or "legally blind". That which is legal usually means that it is NOT illegal. For example, you can legally drive your car on the street. To legally drive you need to have a license or permit that proves to the State that you have demonstrated a set standard of competence for driving. You can't be illegally drunk, or illegally blind. To be "legally blind" your visual aquity needs to be below a standard set by the state. To be legally drunk your level of intoxication must be OVER a limit set by the state.
Newmaidumosa How can you type the letters, in order p, l, a, n, e, t and then say it is not a planet? I don't understand that. these letter LITERALLY spell out the word "PLANET" A grizzly bear and a black bear are both different animals, but they ARE both bears. Pluto was not demoted or downgraded. It was RECLASSIFIED. I just wish you can tell me how you can type out the letters p, l, a, n, e, t then say "not a planet."
Eric Taylor: I'd suggest you look up the definition of the word planet. Or just read the Wikipedia article on it. The term planet is specific and does not include dwarf planets. Our solar system has 8 planets by the scentific AND lexical definitions of the word "planet". And for good measure, peanut butter is, by definition, not butter, it's a paste, just like how jaffa cakes are not cakes, but biscuits and strawberries aren't actually berries.
Philip Wester Is Pluto a type of "planet"? Yes it is a DWARF PLANET. Earth Venus Mercury and Mars are TERRESTRIAL PLANETS Jupiter and Saturn are GAS GIANT PLANETS Neptune and Uranus are ICE GIANT PLANETS. By your definition extra solar planets are not planets, they do not orbit the sun. This is pasted directly from Webster's page on "butter" Full Definition of BUTTER 1 : a solid emulsion of fat globules, air, and water made by churning milk or cream and used as food 2 : a buttery substance: as a : any of various fatty oils remaining nearly solid at ordinary temperatures b : a creamy food spread; especially : one made of ground roasted nuts Definition 2b counts peanut butter AS BUTTER. Here's the link to that page. www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/butter
I am guessing this is the Australia version for at first I was thinking European. They did not use fiat euros as payment and this was fiat dollars. I just wish that either some game show contestants when asked a question like "What would you do with the money" would say an answer like. "Fiat dollars are not money for they are not a store of value which is required for an item to be that of money like gold or silver."
I know that it was originally and Australian TV show, but it is the Australian version. Like how we have X factor and the Voice, there is the US version of them shows even though they are the original...
12:38 me walking out from my final exam, trying to think of that answer during the exam and when I walk out from the examination hall , the answer just came into my mind hahahahahaha
FordFalcon1962nBlue I can't think of Neptune as the last planet. If someone asked me what the last planet was on a show like this I'd probably say Neptune, but I will also feel that Pluto is the last planet.
FordFalcon1962nBlue: Pluto was discovered in 1930, less than 100 years ago. They changed its classification because its classification has always been shaky and they just discovered way too many things about Pluto that made it a not-planet than what makes it a planet. Also, Pluto isn't even the biggest dwarf planet in our solar system. That honour goes to Eris. If you're gonna count Pluto as a planet, we actually have 10 planets. Classifying Pluto as a planet simply due to tradition is stupid.
I was breezing through this until they got to the Aboriginal Rugby Union player. You could ask every 5th grader in America that question and you'd never get a correct answer.
Well that's true, because the answer is wrong. The first Aboriginal to captain an Australian side, if we ignore the all-indigenous 1868 cricket team (not considered an official representative team) was Arthur Beetson for the Rugby League Kangaroos in 1973. They're right that it was Rugby, but wrong that it was the professional, not the amateur, code that got there first.
@@cygil1Interesting. I had forgotten Artie, which is a bit sad as I was a great supporter of Easts when he was their captain. I knew about the Ella brothers in Rugby. Hopefully I would have got Artie if they had got the question right and had put Arthur.
Bouncing is an adjective. This is because it is describing ball. What kind of ball? A bouncing ball. Ran is the verb in this sentence, since it is telling what the dog does. If you were to label the main sentence parts, "dog" would be your simple subject; "ran" would be your simple predicate; "quickly" would be an adverb telling how the dog ran; and "after the bouncing red ball" would be a prepositional phrase.
Oh dear I am very sad most of them didn’t know the surname of Mark, the first Aboriginal Australian, to captain an Australian team. I am not into sport, but back in the day Mark and his brothers were well known, at least in NSW and Queensland. I am not sure where Brett is from - he can have a pass if he from one of the other states.
Not 25.46 because a minute is out of 60 not 100. 46 secs out of 60 is 76% You wasted 25.76 minutes of your life, or alternatively just 25:46 [colons are important ;)]
