A bit of Fry & Laurie - Linguistics 2

[MotohideTheBrave]

I understood everything he was trying to say :D

[MsPips101]

Stephen Fry is simply impressive. Wonderful captivating delivery and excellent mastery of word play.

[paulathewanderer]

....I think he said vulva. 

[TravelerKM]

Woops.

[NinjaFireProductions]

Beautifully said Fry xD

[MigdalBaval]

"... smitten, plenum, vulva. Words that have their own sonority and beauty which is extrinsic, EXTRINSIC, to their connotational or denotational referends"

How the hell does stephen fry remember his script?!

[SaitanMar]

Fry is amazing in this sketch, probably cause he does love language,

[chocolatehaemonculus]

This is pure entertainment. Do correct me if I'm wrong but such programs like this should be on TV, not the hogwash drivel that is perpetually forced down our gullets? E.g. X-Factor..

[Amalekites]

@chocolatehaemonculus

I agree completely! This is the kind of programs you learn from.

And certainly not from shit-sitcoms like "According to Jim" and such.

[JDHGaming]

@chocolatehaemonculus But the media need to cater to the majority. Who enjoy utter shit. X-Factor makes a lot more MONEY than this although amazing slightly "alliterative" comedy. p.s. Stephen Fry awesome.

Duncan :D

[zoyataylor]

loooool omg...

[arrghgarry]

Fry at is best,probably the best I have seen,but if Hugh Lawrie had had better come

backs this could have been a classic

[ecaepevolhturt]

There is only one FRY.

[Digginjim]

for some reason 'correctly correctington' stuck with me from the first time I saw this. I still use the term to this day. The beauty of language.....

EXTRINSIC

[JaneckiJ]

It's about Slavoj Žižek.
