    Anyone else sent here because your own professor doesn't know what they're doing? Seriously man, thank you so much for putting all of this out here in a clear and concise way.

    Great sir. I am your regular student, I'd say if you create different playlist and explain each minor subject in linguistics in detail, so that will help us alot. Eg: A playlist on language origin, evolution, speech and writing, phonetics, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, discourse analysis, psycholinguistics, Sociolinguistics, computational linguistics, anthropological linguistics , , , , and many more

    Lucky those ones who can have an entire class regularly with this professional... some years ago I found your videos and I wished you could share more often and I even dreamt of enrolling in your classes from university were you work... but I found nothing. Now, with this ironic environment, we are forced to study online and I have the same question: is there any program that is focused on your field where people from different places in the world can have access to high quality lessons like yours?
    I hope this message can be read and considered.
    Greetings from Argentina

    • @evanashworth490
      @evanashworth490  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks for your kind words, Jessica. As far as I know, one has to be enrolled in a university in order to register for any class. However, it is possible that there are linguistics classes on Masterclass or similar sites. I simply don't know--sorry I can't be of more help!

    Awesome video! I have a question about prototype theory. It's been a while since I was in school for linguistics so I may be off base here, but I seem to remember something about the Platonic theory about the ideal of an object as part of this idea. Is that related?

    • @evanashworth490
      @evanashworth490  Рік тому +2

      Hello! Platonic idealism--admittedly, a topic I don't know a lot about--is indeed related to the concept of prototypes, and I'm sure Eleanor Rosch would be able to talk more specifically about how platonic idealism formed some of the groundwork for prototype theory. I think the differences may lie in the application. That is, Platonic idealism (at least, as I understand it), exists as a philosophical concept (e.g., who we are as humans, where we come from), whereas prototype theory is intended as a psychological/psycholinguistic idea, attempting to demonstrate how we as humans make meaning from the things in the world around us. Really good question here!

    • @evanashworth490
      @evanashworth490  Рік тому

      I would say they are in a "polysemic" relationship because the meaning of "running" (as in water) and "running" (as in athletics) are metaphorically related (there is energetic movement).
