I am not giving an excuse I am giving an explanation. I am not disputing the person with the accent was Kit.
I made a simply statement in the beginning.
"If I am not mistaken, he seemed to speak with an accent. I was wondering whether he wasn't articulating his point well out of a difficulty in English?"
I wasn't 100% sure that the person with the accent was Kit so I made the statement allowing for error of my memory. Sure, I could go back and watch the video again but that wouldn't be honest to my original comment.
If I am just here for attention, why are you giving it to me? I would much prefer not spending pages explaining this.
You wouldn't have to explain your comments and opinions so very, very, VERY often if you took the time (probably less time than you use to argue) to rewatch the damn video. Watch it as many times as it takes to figure out which one was Kit. Then, watch it again to understand whether his English was the reason for everyone ragging on him, or if his message was plain and 100% understood.
I went back and transcribed what he said and posted it. Did you bother to read that? Would have been a better place to start discussing what he actually said rather than pontificating about second languages.
To me, he sounded like a commercial for his training classes. He's happy the classes are being mandated by HPD, and he mentioned multiple times he's a verified trainer.
i'm an old White guy, but I've never had trouble understanding people who speak English with an accent or don't have the best grammar or vocabulary skills.
So, instead of posting yet another hypothetical, objective mind experiment based on what MIGHT have occurred, why mot go look at what actually occurred, and quit being so argumentative. Why not stop to THINK before posting -- think about whether you can find the answers you are incessantly asking all by your lonesome?
i bet the threads will be much, much shorter, and the arguing kept to a more reasonable level.
