Hi Bob the Canadian here.

I thought I would do a little bit of a different kind of video today.
1
7270
3240
00:10
A lot of times when I make videos people leave comments down below, and they ask me questions,
2
10510
6460
00:16
and I just think it’s great.
3
16970
1870
00:18
But I thought today instead maybe I would ask you a question, and I’ll give you some
4
18840
5489
00:24
examples of how you can answer it in the comments.
5
24329

00:28
When I look at the analytics on Youtube, I see all kinds of different countries where
6
28660
5919
00:34
people are visiting my Youtube channel from.
7
34579
3640
00:38
So I was kind of curious if maybe you would want, in the comments below, to tell me what
8
38219
5660
00:43
country you’re from.
9
43879
1640
00:45
So I’m basically asking you, “Where are you from?” and I would love it if in the
10
45519
4770
00:50
comments below you could write, “I am from….” and then the name of the country that you’re
11
50289
6671
00:56
from.
12
56960
1000
00:57
So for instance if I was to do it, I would in the comments below simply write, “I am
13
57960
4649
01:02
from Canada.”
14
62609
1311
01:03
You might wanna leave your name.
15
63920
1340
01:05
“I am Bob and I am from Canada.”
16
65260
3050
01:08
And that would be great and I promise you that every single person that leaves a comment,
17
68310
4580
01:12
I will make sure that I, I respond to you and I say, “Hi” to you.
18
72890
4470
01:17
But I’m just really curious because I see viewers coming from The Philippines, I see
19
77360
5800
01:23
viewers coming from France.
20
83160
2080
01:25
I see viewers coming from all over the world.
21
85240
2580
01:27
Viet Nam, Japan, Russia.
22
87820
3300
01:31
There are so many different people from so many different countries that I’m curious,
23
91120
4410
01:35
I would like to know a little bit about you.
24
95530
4000
01:39
So if you could that in the comments below, just leave a comment saying, “My name is…..”
25
99530
5040
01:44
and your name, “and I am from….” and the name of your country.
26
104570
4120
01:48
Now you’re going to have to do a little bit of work here.
27
108690
2650
01:51
You’re going to have to find a list of the English names for all the countries in the
28
111340
5260
01:56
world.
29
116600
1000
01:57
I’m sure you probably already know yours, I’m sure you’ve probably already done
30
117600
4740
02:02
some research.
31
122340
1200
02:03
I’m lucky to be from Canada cause generally in every language “Canada” is “Canada”.
32
123540
7580
02:11
In French I say “Le Canada”, but Canada is the same word.
33
131120
4369
02:15
But you’ll need to do a little bit of research to find out what are the different names for
34
135489
4741
02:20
different countries in the world so that you’ll be able to make that distinction below.
35
140230
4959
02:25
So another thing though, maybe the country you live in, isn’t the country you were
36
145189
5250
02:30
born in.
37
150439
1080
02:31
So you might want to leave a comment saying, “I was born in…..” and then the name
38
151519
4920
02:36
of the country you were born in, so for instance, “I was born in Canada.”
39
156439
5231
02:41
and then you would follow up by saying, “I currently live in….” and then the name
40
161670
4420
02:46
of the country you currently live in.
41
166090
1350
02:47
So let’s say you were born in Egypt, but you live in Algeria.
42
167440
5019
02:52
In the comments below say, “My name is…..” and then your name, I would say Bob, “I
43
172459
5900
02:58
was born in Egypt.
44
178359
2050
03:00
I currently live in Algeria.”
45
180409
3420
03:03
And that would just be great.
46
183829
1541
03:05
If you do this I promise you this, I will respond to the comment, and I will also go
47
185370
4920
03:10
and read the Wikipedia pages for every country of every person who responds.
48
190290
6679
03:16
So if your from Italy, and you say, “My name is… and I am from Italy” I will go
49
196969
5791
03:22
and read that Wikipedia page because I’m curious about you guys as much as you’re
50
202760
5489
03:28
curious about me.
51
208249
1171
03:29
I am also curious about learning more about the people around the world that are watching
52
209420
5429
03:34
my channel.
53
214849
1000
03:35
So, I know this isn’t a normal video for you.
54
215849
3290
03:39
Normally I have a really nice lesson, but in this video I feel like I’m giving you
55
219139
4041
03:43
homework.
56
223180
1000
03:44
I’m giving you work to do at home.
57
224180
2179
03:46
You need to go and find the English name for the country you were born in, and the English
58
226359
5781
03:52
name for the country you now live in, if you’ve moved, and please leave a comment below with
59
232140
5040
03:57
your name and the name of your country.
60
