  • Syntax is the study of how we form grammatical sentences, and in this video, we are going to take that analysis to a deeper level with X bar theory.

    Very informative. As a beginner I learned a lot.
    Thank you.

  • @supporterofeastturkestanin2871

    I am impressed with the explanation! It was mindblowing! I read in a book that Old Turkic didn’t have functional category projection (FCP), while Modern Turkish developed it over a span of some time. Somehow I got to know that FCP is related to X-bar theory and that is how I found this excellent introductory video!

    Most of this is completely foreign to how I (also a linguist) and many others view language. I know its mentioned briefly in the video but I just thought I'd press the point again for viewers that (some form of) generative grammar is not the only approach to syntax.

    I couldn't have understood this without you. I really appreciate your time( and you).
    However ,when it comes to syntax tree..
    It's just like climbing up Mount Everest.
    What's your advice?

    Hello I am a freshman in high school and was recently introduce to the study of linguistics. When doing some further research I came across forensic linguistics and am interested in furthering my knowledge on the study. I watched your very first video covering the many different studies within linguistics. While listening I thought that syntax would be a field of study that would be helpful. Would I be correct on the assumption or should I be looking into a different part.

      Hi, thanks for the reply! I did a video about some phonological processes earlier in the series. I probably won't touch on phonotactics for a while, but it's definitely something I would love to get to eventually.

    I wonder. If we put some people on an isolated isle where they hear, listen to and practise sentences or phrases for a long time. Dog bones like, I watch a not do have. I suppose after a while these sentences will stay in the subconscious as "correct and natural" sentences, or not.

      @@FingtamLanguages Fakte, mi havas proponon (aŭ eble defion!) por vi: ĉu vi kuraĝus fari prelegon pri lingvistiko dum NASK ĉi-somere? Mi scias, ke multaj taksus tion tre interesa (ja estas multaj lingvemuloj ĉe NASK!), kaj mi neniam aŭdis antaŭe tian prelegon en (kaj certe ne pri) Esperanto. Vi povus paroli pri lingvistiko ĝenerale kaj doni ekzemplojn en Esperanto: mi kredas, ke tio multe helpus homojn pli bone kompreni la enhavon de gramatikaj libroj, ekzemple. (Mi ĉiam legadas pri "adjunktoj" kaj "komplementoj", kaj viaj filmetoj finfine klarigis tiujn konceptojn al mi).
      Mi supozas, ke eble tio sonas iom timiga, sed mi ankaŭ scias, ke vi emas fari aferojn kiuj timigas vin, do... mi esperas, ke vi faros tion! :-D

    • @FingtamLanguages
      @FingtamLanguages  Před 5 lety +2

      Ho, kia honoro. Dankon por peti. Sed mi timas, ke mia Esperanto ne sufiĉas por fari prelegon Esperantan pri tiel kompleksa temo. Ĉu ĉiu prelego devas esti en Esperanto?

      @JorgeRafaelNogueras Před 5 lety

      @@FingtamLanguages Mi ne scias, ĉu estas "reguloj" pri tio: sed prelegoj prefere ja estu en Esperanto, ĉar oni malemas al krokodilado dum NASK (sume: kial krokodili la solan semajnon en la tuta jaro, kiam oni estas en tut-Esperanta etoso, ĉu ne?). :-)
      Mi tamen malkonsentas kun vi, ke via Esperanto ne sufiĉas: vi simple devus lerni iom da fakaj vortoj pri lingvistiko, kio verŝajne estus interesa al vi ĉiaokaze, kiel lingvisto! :-) Kaj se vi volas plibonigi vian paroladon, restas multe da tempo antaŭ NASK: vi povus aliĝi al programo Ekparolu!, ekzemple, kaj ekzerci vin tiele, se vi volas.
      Nu, mi ne volas "premi" vin, sed mi ja kuraĝas vin fari ĉi tion: mi certas, ke mi kaj la aliaj partoprenantoj ĝuos ĝin. :-)

  • @aquarius4953
    @aquarius4953 Před 4 lety

    In English adjectives come before the name because some day a long time ago somebody had decided that and since everybody has followed this rule. It doesn't explain why "impossible" comes after. Ie mission impossible. And of course adjectives separated by be come after the name. A yellow bird. The bird is yellow.

      missiong impossible might seem incorrect but it makes sense when it is considered a noun phrase. However, saying "the missiong impossible" is simply not correct.
