hi i'm an english major and so is my sister! "i need only take a hot bath" is correct english! it's definitely a little more fancy/archaic, like i feel that's how they'd speak in a jane austen book.
It’s an hyperbaton (is that the name in English?) which mean changing the grammatical order of words in a sentence. A linguistic resource used usually in poems
“I need only (do xyz)” is absolutely a correct way to form a sentence in English lol it’s not something most would use in a casual conversation, but it’s by no means an archaic convention (as in, the convention is still contemporary)
i think i remember one of my grandparents telling me that was actually gramatically correct and the other ways were gramatically *incorrect* (there is a specific syntax to it) - they went to grammar school i believe, but that was like 70 years ago so it basically doesn't apply anymore
I love how dramatic your ACNH saves are. When I played, my villagers didn’t have any drama going on. Or I wasn’t creative enough to come up with anything interesting.
I am LOVING this soap opera, giving real "Young and the Restless" vibes. Soo fun! I wish I could come up with a good Animal Crossing/soap opera title pun right now, lol
I also really would like for the next game to allow multiple islands for one console on separate accounts. I got rid of my original island because you can only have one save per switch and I wish I still had it. Excited for the new game however definitely!
Oh nah this is nasty - Papi what the hell? Melba deserves better. And now she's with Teddy because he heard shit went down and took advantage of it. Nuh-uh girl, this is allll nasty wrong.
This is going to be my guess for the next game. So the game would start with you and tom nook in a plane. And tom nook is saying “we now finished the new horizon island. I have a new task for you in my old town that I own. I kinda abandoned them. So do you accept this new challenge”. Then you land in the town of new leaf but it all run down and you have to rebuild it all again. This town will be like the mainland. Then instead of villager hunting you will like have to send a newsletter to the villagers. You either can choose the specific animal species or just do it randomly form any animal species. So we still have control but not too much. Then like after you finish this island you will move to city folk town and rebuild that. Then on the new leaf town you will have the main street but you have to unlock all the shops and you have to convince the NPCs like the able sisters and like the older NPCs to move into them and you can help them to design it.
I had to go to this video just to say this. Was watching your older acnh videos, and right as you were talking to lopez i went into my campsite and he was there. He scared the shit out of me 😭
Hi! Just wanted to say this video made me laugh a lot. I liveee for the villager drama! This just helped me calm down even in the middle of studying for stressful exams, thank you 💖
I basically stopped playing animal crossing but then I started watching your animal crossing videos in november, and now I have played every single day. Thank you :)
lmao I loved this so much, time traveling to figure out what went wrong during important past events to have everything so warped in the present, your mind!
Usually i hate drama but i eat this content up Also everyone and their mom has commented on the "need" thing and i just wanted to point out that "needn't/need not" exists too, like in "you needn't worry" the to isn't always needed for whatever reason
Just a small fact. Yes the “I need only take a hot bath” is technically a correct sentence. It’s an example of an hyperbaton which mean changing the grammatical order of words in a sentence. A linguistical resource used usually in poems
i’d like to see Nintendo build more on the touch screen for AC if they’re releasing a successor to the Switch. i was excited that we had touchscreen functionality and assumed creating custom designs and furniture placement would be like the 3DS and Happy Home Designer, and was disappointed when the use of the touch screen was barely in ACNH
I honestly wouldn't mind a new horizons 2 if they added back a bunch of the older stuff and every item from the older games and pocket camp, and the roost and the option to have a building for the old NPCs again
As someone with a bachelors and masters in English that teaches English, yes that is correct lol. It’s more of the old English period, like Shakespeare.
Hmmm, me thinks Lopez had a little stuff to stir in the breaking up of Melba and Papi. He was jealous last time you were here, 'cause Papi left him. So who's to say he didn't plot to get his ex back? Especially since Melba went straight to Teddy for comfort afterwards 👀
27:38 honestly, I hope so. they really fumbled with this game in the grand scheme of things so I hope they take this game and dress it up to the 9s in the next if that is what they do, I hope they make it to where we can transfer our New Horizons island to whatever the new game will be. There’s just a lack of balance really
