1. In the lower right corner of any YouTube video, find the gear wheel.
2. It is to the right of the CC and the left of the word YouTube.
3. The gear may have a little red box HD on the gear at the one o'clock position.
4. Click on the gear to open it.
5. Click on the Playback Speed
6. Click the > sign at the end of the line.
7. See the numbers 0.75, 0.5, and 0.25.
Click on one and try 0.5 first, which will slow the video to half-speed.
8. Try to see if it is slow enough. Adjust as needed.
9. IMPORTANT: set it back to normal when done.
Otherwise, it will slow all the following YouTube videos you watch.
10. If you fail to set it back, just set it back to Normal on the next YouTube video you watch.

Good point. Unfortunately these ad people need to adjust the dialog and text down to 6th grade level. n/t PatrickforB Apr 10 #16

Exactly -- sixth grade level. Or maybe not require any reading at all. People are used to ignoring pnwmom Apr 10 #23
