This video is kind of dumb. When dealing with suspension, you take into account "preload"(spring stiffness) and "damping"(speed of spring return). Damping prohibits the spring from returning before the wheel has completely passed the bump. Mr. Solberg doesnt say anything wrong in this video(although he often does:)
I don't think people are really making fun of his knowledge of the english language, but more the way he is pronouncing words with his thick and heavy norwegian accent.
Well one things for sure, he speaks better English than we would speak Norwegian. So unless you thick piss takers speak perfect Norwegian I'd shut up…
@F1TAFF well, thinking about that english is the first secondary language we in Norway learn. I wouldn't be saying it like that to people in england or america lol
@Id334ler han er antageligvis bedre enn mange nordmenn, nettop fordi han er vandt til å snakke språket. Mange tror de er bedre i engelsk enn de egentlig er.
You can cite credentials all you want - fact of the matter is that you obviously did not have the proper comprehension to figure out my point. This is not something you can ignore by saying you excelled at comprehension in an unrelated text.
I am not insulting you in the slightest. Indeed I do have a patronizing tone towards you, but this is only because you felt the need to comment on someone else's English without being 100% accurate yourself.
If you had any reading comprehension, you would see that my comment didn't contain just criticisms of your phrasing - it was a sidenote since you yourself chose to correct someone. It's called a touch of irony.
I raised the point that I saw no such generalizations from the video, and that most people I've encountered have considered Norwegians (and their fellow Scandinavians) to be far better at English than most other non-native English speaking Europeans.
Lol, this is win! I'm from Norway too, and I don't blame him for slipping over words and stuff when speaking, I do too(although, not as bad as this xD)
Btw, he also said: It's a little boring when you don't have a chance to push anything xD Well, boring translates to "kjedelig" in norwegian, and we also use that word when saying that something is awkward/sucks, so..
I see no such generalizations. I see several comments on how this is poor English compared to the average Norwegian's English. Besides, based on your PHRASING, your mastery of English is still incomplete (let me refer to your 'consider I'm Norwegian too', it would be more appropriate to exchange 'too' with 'as well'.)
Incidentally, I'm also full-blood born and raised Norwegian, yet unlike you, when I correct someone in English, I at least exhibit appropriate knowledge.
@89deathkid No, I was saying for those who insult Norwegian, they should actually learn it first, since they all learn English, and they don't mock our language.
I've noticed that espescially the older generations have problems when it comes to talking english, most likely due to the fact that teens nowadays have internet, and a gazillion english channels on the telly. BUT he is in fact rather poor in english, even for a norwegian/ scandinavian. >_>
he speaks Nrowegian, i speak norwegian, and evrybody from norway speaks norway!
Makes me sick that evrybody that speaks English thinks that they can say idiot or stuff like that to other people just because they can't spek english!
Learn Norwegian and see how hard it is to lear a new language!!!!!!!!!!!
It's so nice to hear this because when I speak Norwegian I'm sure I this is the equivalent of how I must sound. The important thing is that we all understood what he meant. That's what I tell myself anyway.
For anyone to insult someone who speaks without a problem is just plain sad. The truth is, alot of British-American people are rubbish at foreign languages, mainly because theyre so ignorant and stupid.
To all the native English speakers mocking. How many foreign languages do you speak fluently? Let alone when you have just finished a 20 minute stint of hard physical and mental exercise.
Petter may have a relatively strong accent for a Scandinavian speaking English, but he's a lot easier to understand than a lot of Americans and Brits I speak to on a daily basis.
@fatbaldblokebb speaking a language is not only about knowing the grammar. He's been rallying for a long time and many people involved in the sport are Brits. having said that, the finnish guys or the french guys in rally aren't much better. This does not mean i criticize him, he's still a good driver. Veri guud!
@fatbaldblokebb oh cmon, Norwegians are good at speaking English. But this guy is a joke. "It's not the fart that kills, it's the smell = It's not the speed that kills, it's the impact" - Petter Solberg
@fatbaldblokebb *cough* We scandinavians laugh at him too. Well, not at him, with him. So many norwegians has the exact same intense dialect, its just Solberg that unfortunately happens to be in unprepared interviews all of the time.
@fatbaldblokebb I am an American and I couldn't agree with you more. It pains me that Americans are so quick to make fun of someone else's second or third languages, yet here the same people that are mocking probably don't even speak English well.
@NalteX Det blir ihvertfall ikke helt feil, fordi damper er selve fjæren på engelsk, Suspension er sammensettnigen av springs og shock absorbers, hele dempe systemet på en måte :D
