Really it's great,as I am studying English as a second language it is helping me a lot to improve my accent.As a teacher trainer it's highly beneficial for me to transact with my Participants. Thank you so much.
12:50: "j" is used instead of "y" because that "j" is used in most European languages for the sound that in English is usually represented by "y". The letter "j" historically developed from the letter "i".
There's some linguistic nerd moments, usually where you take a side step for a moment, in this that can be hard to keep up with and kind of confusing for beginners, such as myself.
That was super helpful, I have taught phonetics in several undergraduate courses, still, I found this a really helpful way of teaching though virtual environment. may I know what app you used to make this video?
"English orthography is terrible for mapping letters to sounds. Other languages not so much." I know you were making a generalisation, but let me point out that there are many, many other deep orthographic languages in the world. I speak one myself (Faroese). Other deep orthographic languages include: Chinese - the most spoken language in the world, Arabic, Hebrew, Danish, French and Hungarian.
+CArolina Diaz This changes based on where you grew up speaking english and who the speaker is. GENERALLY: p,t,k at the start of a word preceding a vowel, or at the start of a syllable preceding a vowel (only if it's primary stress). There should be a puff of air out of your mouth when you make the sound. Top --> t is aspirated, since it's at the beginning and followed by a vowel. p is not, since it's word final. Stop --> Neither are aspirated. t is not at the beginning of a syllable, p by same reasoning above. This stuff will make more sense when you get into phonology and analyze data sets. It's really hard to say "this is where it occurs" because everyone speaks differently. Note that this is ONLY for English, specifically Western Canadian English, but I'm sure some US English is similar as well.
Hi Trevor, I just subscribed. Could I email you some questions? Would you be able to tell me how I know how many segments are in a word? My head is completely full of grammar and it is throwing me off :( I just subscribed because I am taking a course in linguistics now later I will take phonetics. :)
okhay @thetrevtutor i am not a student of any kind, i finished basic high school courses, but i want to know if your opinion do you think its possible to learn the basics of linguistics this way? i do take notes as if i was in school i have extra reading material on just the basics, but back to the original question do you think its possible to grasp this concept this way?
Of course. That's no different than how you learn in college or school anyhow. Watch videos, read textbooks, listen to lectures, or take notes. I think it's much more rare to get a teacher or lecturer that can explain a concept better than a textbook can.

Are you CGP Grey?
No? I get this question like once every 3 months. I should check out who this guy is sometime.
I thought i wouldn't have been the first person to ask, you have similar voices and both make good educational videos.
