English is hard.

It can mean human so yes it's plural but it's also singular so... English is hard.

[Frustration]

Oh, you want me to marry you?

BUT WHAT ABOUT DRAGONS?

Dragons have feelings to people,

No, it's man and men. two man would be incorrect grammar. two men would be correct.

*Sighs* Aspire, man can be plural, a man is correct, two men is correct, the entirety of the common man died is correct. It can be singular and plural.

man referring to the gender of a person is singular, man is referring to the species/group of humans aka mankind, so it's not technically plural as there is only one mankind.

This is the last thing I'm going to say before I drop the argument, you're trying to add rules to English, when there are ten thousand contradictions in it.

@Ookla the Grammatical Hi. Please give us your opinion on this. Also English is the superior language of the world.

Let's go back to Tabletop Time, have you watched it? It's a roleplaying thing Shad did with his brother, Jazza, and two other friends. It was on a hiatus that lasted 4 years but it's finally back!

I tried once, but the episodes are so long.

Ya, what did you start on? I found that starting on the Blood Brothers helped, also good for listening to while doing stuff. It's kinda like a podcast, you just do something and listen.

He has in the past gone months without an upload.

It's likely because of Tabletop Time and adjusting to the new workload.

[Aspiring Writer]

Our great lord and savior has heard my prayer and request and released a video!

[Aspiring Writer]

The great Shad has released another video, this one about how to carry spears on your back. Results are good for all you fantasy writers out there. He also gave me a heart on my comment of that video, where I request a fantasy rearmed on werewolves, so... fingers crossed.

[Eri she/her]

Oh, there's a Shad thread. Nice.

I watch him quite often (Skallgrim more rarely), I like listening to various yt channels while doing stuff. And Shad got me interested in how castles actually worked. He's got a great voice and I really like his manner of speaking. And he can admit to being wrong. And killed a snake with a sword as a kid (Shad had a sword, not the snake, but still it's something). (And is low-key sexist sometimes but I like him anyway.)

As opposed to others in this thread I'm a woman (married, with kids, in case you wondered). 

Anyway, maaaachiculations!!!

BTW, speaking of Shad, what's with the majority of fantasy people, HEMA people and similar being members of the LDS Church? Almost every time I follow someone for fantasy-related content, they eventually mention "as a member of the LDS, I [something]". (Also, that great t-shirt saying "we gave you Battlestar Galactica and Twilight, sorry for Twilight"). Not wanting to be offensive, it's just a mystery to me. Especially that I live in Europe (it's that place with castles and the right timezone and almost no LDS).

Um, mind providing examples? That's a pretty big claim.

Well, I have no idea, but he is Christian and probably attracts other Christians.
