Examples are so practical. Thanks for including helpful examples!

This is brilliant. Best linguistics video I've ever seen; short, succinct and descriptive.

[canalettov]

What a great video! Informative, concise and very pleasant to watch. I was quite surprised when I saw that you don't have a popular channel full of videos about these topics and realized it was just an overview for a linguistics course. Congratulations anyway!

This video is great! It has great examples that helped me to understand this much better than anything else so far. There are pictures to go along with each example, which really helps clear up confusion. It's straight-forward and to-the-point, which makes it very useful for learning the material quickly. The narrator is calm and has a soothing voice that makes watching this easy and enjoyable. This material is so much more clear to me now after watching this video. Thank you so much and please leave this video up, as it's the best one I've found. :)

[michaelgarzon]

Wow! You're so good. Are you a teacher already?

[miana]

informative (and cute!) video. One question though, is friendly a free morpheme? Or does it consist of a free and a bound morpheme without friendly being in one of the two categories? I haven't really grasped the concept of morphology (or linguistics in general, since I just decided to learn about it), so this question might be stupid

[LucyGhosts]

1:05 pls tell me that example works with the British pronunciation too

[mollycave]

Would you recommend going into linguistics? I'm seriously thinking about it.
