The teacher's accent is so soothing and accurate, the confidence and clarity in his voice are the best things to listen to, my respect for you mister .

I can't express my appreciation to you, Mr. Ashworth, in words alone. You literally saved me many times, and you had me become obsessed with Linguistics in general, and Pragmatics in particular.

Youre the goat man. This is just what I needed after feeling down but still having to study.

[irenegitonga]

This channel has been so helpful to me this semester. I wish I had discovered you earlier. You make this content so easy to consume. Sitting my last last paper in Semantics and Pragmatics tomorrow. This just helped me answer a question on invoking implicatures and implicature utilization in maxim clash. Thank you Mr.Ashworth❤
