[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get hung up on historical dramas, where they reference ideas that hadn’t yet come into existence in that time period. Like a show that takes place in the time of Jesus or someone says just a second or just a minute — since clocks weren’t invented until the middle ages so they didn’t have seconds and minutes. They do things like this a lot in that Viking show where for example, one of the characters talks about something as being very risky or having bad odds or something. The science of probability was only created in the 1700s, so Vikings would not have been familiar with concepts like risk or odds. My husband says this weird quirk of mine tends to ruin a lot of TV watching and I’m the only person who worries about things like this.[/quote] Of course the Vikings would have had the concept of something being risky. A capacity to assess the riskiness of something is innate to being human! [/quote]
