That was really interesting and helpful. I'm studying an access module (think tasting menu of arts and languages subjects) and finding the linguistics stuff fascinating.
I heard someone use the phrase “lexical semantics” earlier and searched it on UA-cam. Now I’m here. Over thinking about how poor my vocabulary and understanding. After hearing you speak I feel like wow I probably speak English so poorly. What careers do people who get degrees in linguistics usually get?
Hello! I think I'm just using a lot of terminology and I practiced my delivery for these videos, so my speech will definitely seem more formal and polished than it actually is, so I seriously doubt that you lack vocabulary or understanding (because, for one thing, your writing is great)! Anyhow, typical jobs for people who get degrees in linguistics are translation work (e.g., for the government, freelance, or through web applications), consultants for companies that use language services (e.g., Google, DuoLingo), and education (people like me who teach). I hope that helps!
Hi Tayach. I have a three-part series on syntax on my channel that discusses tree structures, but they are not specific to x-bar theory and that is not my speciality, so I'm afraid I wouldn't be the best source for that information. Sorry about that!
As always thank you. It's really helpful 💗 I was wondering if I could ask you a question.....and I know it's from a different topic 😁 In co-operative principal, what's the difference between Quantity(contribution should not be more or less) and manner( brief and orderly)? I'm asking this because in my test the answer of 'forbidding unnecessary prolixity' was related to Manner and I don't know why it can't be Quantity 😞
Hi Melody. The maxim of quantity is well and truly about quantity: the idea that when speakers engage in a conversation, they tend to only make their contributions as informative as required (e.g., when someone asks how are you, you are not likely to answer that question by talking about everything going on in your life--even though you may be thinking about all of those things). The maxim of manner, though it mentions brevity, is more about the observation that speakers tend to avoid ambiguity and strive to be as clear as possible. I have also wondered why "avoiding unnecessarily prolixity" is part of the manner maxim, but the "supermaxim" involves clarity (e.g., when we tell stories, they are in chronological order and it is generally clear who is doing what to whom). The wikipedia page on the co-operative principle is fairly useful, and I will actually be making a video about the topic in the coming weeks.
@@evanashworth490 omg, thank you so much. I really appreciate your time. Now I can see the difference between them much better. U r my favourite hero 💗 And I am absolutely waiting for your next videos 💗😁
I always hear now in the song “California Dreamin’” in the line “All the leaves are brown” “Anneliese Braun” because since I’m German the pronunciation is quite the same^^
Very nicely presented! I must say, one of the slips that I hear most often and abhor is: "for all intents and purposes" delivered as "for all intensive purposes". This mistake is pushing unforgivable, especially when addressing a large, literate group. Doesn't that grind one's nerves?
I hear and see that too, and though it can be annoying because we all have prescriptivist language ideologies, we must remain descriptive as linguists and simply observe this as an interesting instance of possible language change--same thing with writing "should of" instead of "should have"
Hello! Sound exchange (one sound switching positions with another sound) is the broad category that includes Spoonerisms (one sound switching positions with another sound across words) and metathesis (one sound switching positions with another sound within a word)
Would any of these, if not a slip of the tongue/ear, be classified as indicators for dyslexia if English or the language is not foreign? What is the term, if any, is used if there is only specific words an individual cannot pronounce correctly, no matter how hard they try?
Hi, Nomadic Dreamer. No, none of these--slips of the tongue or slips of the ear--would be indicative of dyslexia by themselves because these are all so common that everyone does them. I'm not sure of a term used to refer to the inability to pronounce words "correctly". Depending on the word one tries to pronounce, there could be numerous reasons for the variant pronunciation. Unfortunately, I'm not an expert in this area, so consulting a speech pathologist would be much more helpful! Sorry I cannot be of more help.
You may not have a listening problem at all because these errors are extremely common! Also, that's totally okay if you are not a native speaker! I wish I spoke more than 1 language fluently!
Essentially--metathesis represents two sounds switching positions inside a word, and spoonerisms are basically instances of metathesis extending beyond the word.
Don't stop creating content sir
You have no idea how helpful it is 🙏 God bless
I have an exam on applied linguistics tomorrow, you're a blessing, thank you!!
edit: I got 87%, thanks :)
I was told that slips of the ear are called "mondegreens'' when you mis-hear lyrics to a song.
Hi Dan. That's right! I really should have mentioned that.
bro this shi interesting af, where can i go to learn phonotactics, its the skill i never knew i had
I have an exam in Applies Linguistics and your videos are very helpful. Thank you very much!
God bless you.
“You are not human and you should get that checked out” ™️
I really should put that on a shirt
@@evanashworth490 yes sir😂
I love this video. I am smiling a lot thinking of myself doing these exactly 😹
Excellent video ! Mamy thanks !
Before even watching the video. I clicked like. You really helped during my three years in college. I cant thank you enough man
That was really interesting and helpful. I'm studying an access module (think tasting menu of arts and languages subjects) and finding the linguistics stuff fascinating.
I used to trick drunk people by using metathesized spoonerism saying "High how are you" enunciated as "How high are you" 😂😂😂😭
😂😂😂
Blending is not common in Arabic ... But encountered a lot in English ....
Gladly the cross-eyed bear (gladly, the cross I'd bear)
More videos about applied linguistics please 😍😍
This channel is so underrated

My girlfriend asked me if I have pure intentions for her and apparently I told her I don't.

Hello, can you please make a video on how to draw a tree representation of a clause or phrase with X-bar theory rules?
Hi Tayach. I have a three-part series on syntax on my channel that discusses tree structures, but they are not specific to x-bar theory and that is not my speciality, so I'm afraid I wouldn't be the best source for that information. Sorry about that!

This video is really interesting
Please shoot a video of phonotactics too please
I will try to add a video on this topic!
I'm enjoying your videos as I'm preparing for my exam, wish me luck 🔥....and please upload lots of videos💗
Lots of love 💗💗
Please can you translate the videos into Arabic?
Hello. I will try to work on this. Thanks!
I said "de kern van de aarde" (the center of the earth) and my coach misheard it as "de kelder van mijn anus" (the cellar of my anus)
Brilliant!
Quite interesting, malapropism reminds us of Sheridan’s Mrs. Malaprop
Chable tair instead of (Table Chair)😂
Nice spoonerism!
Sir make a vedio on how we do discourse analysis of any text
Very interesting..please make more videos
Wow! All of your videos are awesome! I'm a new linguistics learner and I've learned a lot!

It's very good my teacher
thank you so much sir! I swear I’ve learned a lot!
Thank you I really found it very clear lesson
so interesting,thank you professor

Thank you so much
great ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Sir plz make a video on 7 types of meaning in semantics
You might want to look at my video on lexical semantics. Cheers!
Great lesson sir
Once I experienced in a song saying "comes in to play" but I misunderstood as "come in display" 🤣
That's a good one and completely understandable!
@@evanashworth490 So, I have listening problem 😥 By the way, I am not a native speaker

Metathesis and spoonerism are same?
Essentially--metathesis represents two sounds switching positions inside a word, and spoonerisms are basically instances of metathesis extending beyond the word.

Haha, what song is that?

Awesome, I'll have to check that out!
