Professor Dave Explains

Show Notes

We've taken a look at many nouns from the first and second declensions. Now let's dive into the third declension, which is a bit trickier. This declension is divided into two subgroups: parasyllabic and imparisyllabic nouns. What do these terms mean? Let's dive into the imparisyllabic nouns first.Script by Patrizia Farina, Professor of Italian at Western Connecticut State University and Purchase College.Watch the whole Latin playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveLatinItalian Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveItalianAmerican History Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAmericanHistoryPhilosophy Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhiloClassical Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics1Modern Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics2General Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT Learn more about your ad choices.

After mentioning Israel's genocide numerous times in other content regarding Christian theocrats, Peter Thiel's puppets, or figures like Avi Loeb, many people have asked to me to just go ahead and make a long-form video about my views on Israel. I had avoided this since I'm a science communicator and prefer not to make exclusively political content, but after a twerp named Destiny took it upon himself to call me a Nazi, I had an excuse to do it. So here it is. Israel is objectively committing genocide, Zionism is the vile ideology behind it, and here is everything you need to hear to understand exactly what Israel is, and why they are an existential threat to all of humanity.Database of incitement to genocide: https://law4palestine.org/law-for-palestine-releases-database-with-500-instances-of-israeli-incitement-to-genocide-continuously-updated/Francesca Albanese's UN report: https://www.ohchr.org/sites/default/files/documents/hrbodies/hrcouncil/sessions-regular/session55/advance-versions/a-hrc-55-73-auv.pdfList of human rights groups accusing Israel of genocide: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_humanitarian_and_human_rights_groups_accusing_Israel_of_genocide_in_GazaRyan Beard's bombshell Destiny video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-1L0LyqOYQPixie's substack: https://web.archive.org/web/20250128044058/https:/pxie412.substack.com/p/i-will-be-suing-steven-kenneth-bonnell?utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true&r=2015en&utm_campaign=postWatch all my other debunks/debates/discussions: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveDebunkEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Learn more about your ad choices.

Meso soup! Here we will see how compounds with multiple stereocenters may be achiral overall, if they have an internal plane of symmetry (meso compounds) or an inversion center. In addition, we will define and discuss diastereomers.
