This was very helpful. For a novice/beginner in conlanging/linguistics terms like these can often be confusing and make articles about how languages work challenging and tiresome to read. You are very good at explaining and illustrating these concepts in an accessible way! This is the first video of yours I've watched so far, gonna watch the other ones now 😄
First of all, thank you sooooooo much for this amazing video 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 Please could you upload more videos about linguistics Phonology, Phonetics, Morphology, syntax, morphemes, etc I have watched lots of videos about linguistics but I could not understand it easily. Your explanation is very clear.
I guess Im randomly asking but does anybody know a way to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my login password. I would love any tips you can offer me!
@Jerome Chaim i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
This is so helpful, I have a midterm tomorrow in intro to linguistics and you helped me so much to understand this topic. I love how you explained first, then explained with examples, and then challenged us to answer the examples you gave us (answered all correctly, thanks to you). Thank you so very much and I'm looking forward to more videos from you.
You are the best ! I leave my teacher and come to you for learning ! Plz keep it up and make us learn from such a talented person. All the love from Iraqi Master's degree students ❤

Don't wanna be cocky but are we sure that 'super' can be considered as a prefix? As far as I know hyphenated words cannot be considered as derived words.
Hi great video! Im still confused on how the ending of the word can be inflectional and derivation at the same time. The "Competing" example confused me. Please help me thanks.
I came across inflection, knowingly for the first time, as a means of being judged in a narative. Town crying being the format used. I still don't understand how inflection is added or injected into a set piece. To me what has to be relayed in a speech, is, what it is. Are town criers, crys, ment to be cryed as if the cryer is the third person? For example, the cryer is the vehicle by which the news is being broadcast but it is not 'his' news, merely general news that he has been commissioned to pass on to others. Does this mean that the cry is in a different tense, than the present? Have I just answered my own question? I'am even more confused than I was before, I think. Can you please help my understanding of what I am being judged on? Thanks in advance.
Hi Chippy, thanks for the question. I don't know that I fully understand what you're asking, though, so I very much share your confusion. 'The cry' to which you're referring sounds to me like a noun, so I'm not sure that it's in any tense. I don't think I can tell you what you're being judged on unless I see the question. Sorry. Good luck, though.
@@thelanguagecode7675 Sorry I rambled so much in my orig nal question I'm not supprised your are confused. The question is, How does a town crier use inflection in his cry? Or, What is inflection in a cry and how is it used? I hope that is clearer. Thanks.
Hi Chippy, I'm very sorry for the delay in response. There are two definitions of inflection. One is directly related to grammar. The second is related to the intonation and pitch of voice. This is not related to grammatical inflection. I'm guessing that in relation to the town crier, the latter definition is the most appropriate, and the judgement is on voice modulation. A late response, but hopefully a little bit helpful.
How about the word uncharacteristically. I cannot count the morphemes in this at all :-( Un-character-istic-ally...4 morphemes un-character-is-tic-al-ly.... 6 morphemes...? Thank you for this video btw!!!
Ok so pre or post modification is a derivational morphological feature, but if the modification is in grammar in the word it's inflectional. Got it, I think.
