‘Fútbol’ vs ‘Soccer’ – ¿POR QUÉ la guerra de palabras?

Posted on por



Algunos lo llaman «fútbol» y desprecian la palabra «fútbol». Los que están en el campo del «fútbol» son probablemente europeos, y están resentidos con aquellos en los EE. UU. o en otros lugares que simplemente no pueden obtener el nombre correcto de su hermoso deporte. Y aquellos que lo llaman «fútbol» odian cuando la gente dice «fútbol», que para ellos es un juego de pelota completamente diferente. Finalmente, hay un tercer grupo: gente como nosotros aquí en Kick off!, que queremos llegar al fondo de esta guerra de palabras. ¿Por qué tanto odio por un simple nombre?

  7. 3:30 … well .. no .. you said "There are many versions of football" … and proceed to show 5 pictures of others sports that are supposed to also be considered football … but in the same photo you show, they have the balls in their hands … not a single one with it controlled by their feet.
    You can call it watever you want, but it should make at least sense … I could start calling basketball, goalball … or instead of voleyball, basketball … and if I can get enough people with zero common sense that follow me, cement the word in certain location … but that would not mean that the new word would be ok …
    The Yankees call it "Soccer" cause they already have a sport they call Football … a sport that is played with the hands, not the feet, and is not played with a ball, but an egg.

  15. The entire point is that soccer is not as popular in the US. American football is probably the biggest sports sensation in the country, and the soccer community is ignored by most people. I enjoy soccer, but I only watch European leagues, so I call it football when online. When talking to friends, I would never call it football because they would think I'm some kind of lunatic who doesn't know the NFL exists.
    Simple as that. Football to those who care, soccer to the majority of the nation.

  18. As an American of the U.S. variety he called it at the end, I really could care less, ya hooligan wankers, sometimes it is fun to be antagonistic to foreigners but only in jest. It's too bad youtube changed the dislike button, not that I would use it, but I would love to see the like/dislike ratio, and I absolutely give credit to this channel for even publishing this knowing all too well how badly they were about to break the algorithm, bravery at its finest

  24. It's not that much about how the Americans call it, they can call it any way they want. It's that they use the already established name of one sport for another sport that lacks magic and elegance of the real football. Their football is played using hands predominantly (why is the word "foot" there anyway?), but more importantly, it's barbaric and thuggish. That's a fact, no need to sugarcoat it. It should be called "ufc-ball" or something, would make much more sense.

  32. USA be like: Lets rename sport football to soccer and let's name our leuge "Major Leuge Soccer"
    USA too: Lets name our club "____ Football Club"

  38. For me, it's simple. American football for the one played in America and Football for the game called soccer because only the Americans would say football and be referring to the sport they play there while everyone else will most likely think of 'soccer' as football when they are talking.
