Wow I am absolutely amazed by how easily you explained this! Thank you so much, this really helped me and I just understood most of the things that I was trying to understand for a solid 30 minutes haha
Such a great explanatory video. Thanks a lot, now I finally understood complementary distribution!!! I also love the music, it really contributes to making studying pleasant :) Admirable how much effort you put in this.
Complementary distribution In tgis context ditribution refers to the set of phonetic environtments in which a phone occurs. The phonetic environment of sound consist of the sounds that sorround it, i.e. Tge sounds that precede it and the sounds that follow it. There is two speech sounds: 1. Differrnt phonemes 2. Same phoneme You start looking for evidrnce and you find minimal pairs. Contrastive distribution -the situation in which two phones occur in the same environment and result in semantic contrast. There's other kind of distribution that make you may come across in a given language regarding two or morre sense: 1. Contranstive distribution 2. Complementary distribution 3. Free variation In contrastive distribution the two sounds in question occur in minimal pairs which means in words that have the same number of sounds and they differ only one sound and that sound those sounds are in the sounds position. Complementary distribution Is a relation between the variants of phoneme each of which occurs in a certain set of phonological environtments. These variants are called allophones. In other words, a phoneme takes a slightly different form, i.e. It becomes a different allophones, depending on tge environtment in which it appears.
Thanks for making such a wonderful video, Sir. I have a question, In a hypothetical language [lid] means 'hear' and [ kid] means 'smell' . Does it mean that the sounds 'l' and 'k' are in complimentary distribution in this language? Regards from India
Thanks for your explanations, can you please tell me how the vowel sound change in the enviroment, ex. Vowel /a/ sometimes pronounce different in a word deppen on its enviroment . Thanks
I think you are wrong on the aspiration rule, you said when a word is followed by a vowel it becomes aspirated. Then what about the word Span or Spin, both are followed by vowels but the P is not aspirated ! could you explain this to me please.
If distribution is not complementary, it is either contrastive distribution or free variation. I have separate videos on those that may help clarify the concepts.
Thanks for your comment. Are you sure your sound settings are properly set? However, yours is the second comment on quiet sound, which I hear just fine on my computer. It is, however, also the case that my earlier videos (this being one of them) needed improvements. Hopefully the later videos don't have such issues.

As a Persian student, i got so excited when you provided an example from my mother tongue.
Feel free to provide more examples from Persian in the comment section for this or any other video :)
The thing that amused me is that he pronounced the Persian words like a native for a second I was like is he a persian guy:)

Thanks for the clear explanation!
Thank you!!
I like your prononciation of these arabic sounds ...Especially ق
Thanks! I tried hard :)
Is it accurate? (assuming you're a native speaker of Arabic)
Are you from Azerbaijan??

Thanks for making such a wonderful video, Sir. I have a question, In a hypothetical language [lid] means 'hear' and [ kid] means 'smell' . Does it mean that the sounds 'l' and 'k' are in complimentary distribution in this language?
Regards from India
They are in contrastive distribution, because they create contrast in meaning.
thank u r the best ur videos r so helpful
Thank you so much!
Can you tell me what are we supposed to do if someone says to build a phonemic inventory of your language?
What the person means is for you to list all the phonemes (and allophones) of your language.
Thank u soooooooooooooooo much Dear 😘😘😘😘😍💞💖
Duja - Thx for the explanation ❤️
ohhh you save my life thank you
See you next week :)
Thanks for your explanations, can you please tell me how the vowel sound change in the enviroment, ex. Vowel /a/ sometimes pronounce different in a word deppen on its enviroment . Thanks
Thank you so so much you made it so easy
That's what I hope to achieve on all topicsǃ ː)
See you around.
I think you are wrong on the aspiration rule, you said when a word is followed by a vowel it becomes aspirated. Then what about the word Span or Spin, both are followed by vowels but the P is not aspirated ! could you explain this to me please.
/p/ will be aspirated if it is syllable-initial. It is not syllable-initial in 'span' or 'spin', hence [spæn], [spin].
Thank you
I want to u to record a video in which u describe they way of analysis those words cuz I didn't understand yet
Ula - thanks for the explanation.
KHUSNUL JONI ISU-Thanks for the explanation🖒
Did he meant to write /q/ become [G] & /q/ becomes [ɣ] ?
he wrote /G/ becomes [G] & /G/ becomes [ɣ]
yup i think it was a typo, it's supposed to be /q/
Thanks alot
Thanks 🙏
Nice
wow nice pronunciation
you helped a lot
I'm glad this worked!
Can i ask what is incomplementary distribution then
If distribution is not complementary, it is either contrastive distribution or free variation.
I have separate videos on those that may help clarify the concepts.
Aze Linguistics thank you for responding
Good work but the quality of the sound is really bad.
Thanks for your comment.
Are you sure your sound settings are properly set?
