Vikings S01E01 REPACK HDTV x264-2HD

here are a couple copy/paste examples from a couple sites that explains my understanding:

grammar.quickanddirtytips.com/a-historic-versus-an-historic.aspx
"the choice between "a" and "an" is governed by the first sound of the next word. if it's a consonant
sound, choose "a"; if it's a vowel sound, choose "an." although there are regional variations, the
standard american pronunciation of "historic" starts with a consonant sound (just like the
words "hit," "hipster," and "highlighter"), so the correct choice is "a historic." there's nothing special
about "historic" that exempts it from the standard rule.

oxforddictionaries.com/words/a-historic-event-or-an-historic-event
a historic event or an historic event?
people often believe that they should use the indefinite article an in front of words like historic, horrific,
or hotel. are they right or wrong? should you say

a historic = correct
an historic = incorrect

so says every teacher i had through the 60's 70's & 80's, and oxford dictionary,
washinton state university, purdue university, and rutgers university.

how can they all be wrong? 😟

well, welcome to the history of all languages everywhere. even a prescriptivist such as yourself
must surely realise that our modern languages, dialects and accents have evolved from people taking
liberties with the old ones?

anyway, thanks for the show info!

.. aand, back to the show 😉

quite decent, so definitely going to be watching this season 🙂

anyone else finding this impossible to download? it's been sitting with never less than 10k seeders all
week, and not once have i had any dl action on it. someone open the pipe, please.

also:

"an historic" is correct in dialects of english which do not pronounce the "h"; a lot of england, for example.
sort of like how it's "an honour to meet you", not "a honour to meet you." would be heard as "an istoric ..."

for dialects which still pronounce the h clearly in "historic", then "a" is more natural, though people will say
"an historic" because of reading written accounts by english speakers of silent-h dialects.

umm, open the pipes? this is not a direct file download site, this is a torrent
site, and there are plenty of seeders on it right now. the issue is on your end.
if you have high-speed internet access (not on dialup) and its taking all week,
then something is obviously wrong on your end. depending on the seed/leach
ratio at the time, a one hour show typically takes anywhere from a few minutes
to an hour tops.

without additional details or a playing a round of q&a, its almost impossible to help you.
you might start with...delete the torrent file (if you downloaded one) delete whatever part of the file
you've donwloaded so far (it may be corrupt). reboot your computer. redownload the torrent file, or
use the magnet link.

open the pipes refers to one's up limit. other torrents linked from this site working fine, even with the
same trackers. hence the question of whether i was the only one having this issue, for this particular one.

which was my only question.

gotcha now. sorry.
you were asking any random seeder to increase their up limit.
i downloaded this a few hours after it was posted here and i
had no problems with downoad speed.

@boones

sorry that got you into a heated discussion :

bahahahhaa - i was thinking that!!!!!!!!!!

omg 🙂. english isn't my native language, and even i know "an" is used if the next word begins with
a vowel.
it's sad.
