From the future here. The answer is, I think so? Computers have gotten really good at guessing what comes next when constructing a sentence. So good in fact it works in reverse, changing earlier words to make them fit with what the computer wants to say later.
Hmmm! Now that you mention it, I am going back and looking at the waveforms, and it does seem to be the case that it is a bit unbalanced, although we didn't change anything about the mic placement or sound processing at any point in the filming, so it is odd that that happened. I'll keep an eye on this for the future.
That was veryinsightful and mucheducational. Btw., my dictionary tells me that the 'fahrt' in 'dampfschifffahrtsgesellschaft' (actually 'dampfschiffahrtsgesellschaft' in contemporary orthography, of course) is more 'voyage' than 'driving'. A proper translation should take into account that the necessity of steering the vessels is only incidental to the actual purpose of the organisation: getting people to places.
@JayFolipurba I meant 'contemporay' as in: back in the day when the Donaudampfschiffahrtsgesellschaft was an actual thing. I guess the idea was that adding the third F does nothing, so why not skip it. (The exception was that when hyphenating for a line break, it became Schiff-fahrt again.) In modern orthography, it's Schifffahrt with three Fs, as one would expect. Therefore I spelled it that way, but then wanted to explain why it's spelled differently in the video :)
Yeah, we do try to use examples from other languages, as well! The next couple of episodes, we'll definitely have a bunch of examples from other languages, too. But we'll try to fit in more more regularly, too. Thanks! ^_^
And it's still a compound! But yeah, there are a lot of potential variations there. It's interesting lexical variation, though - I don't think I'd say just "tub", really. But it works either way!
What do the classical elements have to do with breaking bad? I mean to be fair Ling Space is the breaking bad of linguistic educational videos on youtube.
Admittedly, that one is a bit weirder, but I think it's important to put these out there, because it's so productive. Even if it's not immediately apparent what it is, it's usually not that hard to work out. And while I think it's definitely fair to knock English for this, compounding is really common across a wide variety of languages - it's a basic word-building tool. And so you can find similarly weird compounds in typologically different languages. Japanese can be just as productive on this point as English is. ^_^
Roof pizza... someone eats this particular type of pizza on s roof or in celebration of putting up the roof in some building; the pizza looks like a roof; it has roof tiles as filling...
