2016
ูˆุงู„ู‡ุฏู ุงู„ุฃุณุงุณูŠ ู…ู† ุงู„ู…ุดุฑูˆุน

and try to fill them
32
111180
1216
01:52
so that we have a way of talking about all those human peccadilloes

and quirks of the human condition
34
116340
2416
01:58
that we all feel but may not think to talk about

02:02
because we don't have the words to do it.
36
122780
2696
02:05
And about halfway through this project,
37
125500
2416
ูˆุฎู„ุงู„ ุนู…ู„ูŠ ููŠ ุงู„ู…ุดุฑูˆุนุŒ ุนุฑู‘ูุชู "sonder" (ูƒู„ู…ุฉ ุฃู„ู…ุงู†ูŠุฉ)ุŒ
02:07
I defined "sonder,"
38
127940
1616
02:09
the idea that we all think of ourselves as the main character
39
129580
3376
ุงู„ููƒุฑุฉ ุงู„ุชูŠ ุชุฌุนู„ู†ุง ู†ุนุชู‚ุฏู ุฌู…ูŠุนู†ุง ุฃู†ู†ุง ุดุฎุตูŠุงุช ู…ู…ูŠุฒุฉ ู…ุชููˆู‚ุฉ
02:12
and everyone else is just extras.
40
132980
2656
ูˆุฃู† ุงู„ุขุฎุฑูŠู† ู‡ู… ู…ุฌุฑุฏ ุชูƒู…ู„ุฉ ุนุฏุฏ.
02:15
But in reality, we're all the main character,
41
135660
2696
ู„ูƒู† ููŠ ุงู„ูˆุงู‚ุนุŒ ู†ุญู†ู ุฌู…ูŠุนู‹ุง ุดุฎุตูŠุงุช ุฑุฆูŠุณูŠุฉุŒ
02:18
and you yourself are an extra in someone else's story.
42
138380
3079
ูˆุฃู†ุชู… ุดุฎุตูŠุงุช ุฅุถุงููŠุฉ ููŠ ู‚ุตุฉ ุฃุญุฏู‡ู….
02:22
And so as soon as I published that,
43
142980
3096
ูˆุญุงู„ู…ุง ู†ุดุฑุชู ุฐู„ูƒุŒ ุชู„ู‚ูŠุชู ุงู„ูƒุซูŠุฑ ู…ู† ุงู„ุฑุฏูˆุฏ ู…ู† ุงู„ู†ุงุณ
02:26
I got a lot of response from people
44
146100
1696
02:27
saying, "Thank you for giving voice to something I had felt all my life
45
147820

02:32
but there was no word for that."
46
152460
3016
02:35
So it made them feel less alone.
47

1760
ูู‚ุฏ ุฎูู‘ูŽู ุฐู„ูƒ ุงู„ุฃู…ุฑ ู…ู† ูˆุญุฏุชู‡ู….

02:40
to make us feel less alone.
49

02:44
And it was not long after that
50
164220
1736
ูˆู„ู… ูŠู…ุถู ูˆู‚ุช ุทูˆูŠู„ุŒ
02:45
that I started to notice sonder

02:55
I caught it next to me in an actual conversation in person.
54
175020

There is no stranger feeling than making up a word

59
188900

ุฃุนู…ู„ู ุนู„ู‰ ุฐู„ูƒ.
03:11
I started to think about what makes words real,

because a lot of people ask me,

195380
1496
ู„ุฃู† ุงู„ูƒุซูŠุฑ ู…ู† ุงู„ู†ุงุณ ูŠุณุฃู„ู†ูŠ--
03:16
the most common thing I got from people is,
62
196900
2336
ุงู„ุณุคุงู„ ุงู„ุฃูƒุซุฑ ุดูŠูˆุนู‹ุงุŒ ูˆุงู„ุฐูŠ ุณุฃู„ูˆู†ูŠ ุฅูŠุงู‡ ูƒุซูŠุฑู‹ุง:

"Well, are these words made up? I don't really understand."
63
199260
3256
"ุญุณู†ู‹ุงุŒ ู‡ู„ ุชู… ุชุดูƒูŠู„ ู‡ุฐู‡ ุงู„ูƒู„ู…ุงุชุŸ ู„ุง ุฃูู‡ู…ู ุฐู„ูƒ ุญู‚ู‹ุง."
03:22
And I didn't really know what to tell them
64
202540
2056
ูˆู„ู… ุฃุนุฑู ุจู…ุงุฐุง ุฃุฎุจุฑู‡ู…ุŒ
03:24
because once sonder started to take off,
65
204620
1936
ู„ุฃู†ู‡ ูˆู…ู†ุฐ ุงู„ู„ุญุธุฉ ุงู„ุชูŠ ุชู… ููŠู‡ ุชุฏุงูˆู„ ูƒู„ู…ุฉ sonderุŒ

03:29
And so I sort of felt like Steve Jobs, who described his epiphany

03:40
and just sort of get on with things.
70
220580
3096
03:43
But once you realize that people --

2560
ูˆู„ูƒู† ุนู†ุฏู…ุง ุชุฏุฑูƒ ุฃู† ุงู„ู†ุงุณ --
