Thank you!! I'm going to watch them one by one. Concerning WUG, GUTCH, NIZ, and HEAF, I was wondering how it works in German. If you give me a random German-sounding senseless noun, I wouldn't know the plural form unless it is obvious from the ending (like der …er, die …ung, das …chen, etc.). Would it work effortlessly in the brains of German speakers, even if the word doesn't have a typical ending?</p> </div> </article> </li> <li id="comment-225556" class="comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1"> <article id="div-comment-225556" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-author vcard"> <b class="fn"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeLnf2Up1YAgnr9dhkIfIsw" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">0kirank0</a></b> <span class="says">says:</span> </div> <div class="comment-metadata"> <a href="https://theengineeringofconsciousexperience.com/an-introduction-to-english-linguistics/#comment-225556"><time datetime="2017-06-02T13:46:30-07:00">June 2, 2017 at 1:46 pm</time></a> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>Martin What about Sign language?</p> </div> </article> </li> <li id="comment-225555" class="comment even thread-even depth-1"> <article id="div-comment-225555" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-author vcard"> <b class="fn"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYKBekkAwiNT2t90t4vt0kw" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">sassysammy 88</a></b> <span class="says">says:</span> </div> <div class="comment-metadata"> <a href="https://theengineeringofconsciousexperience.com/an-introduction-to-english-linguistics/#comment-225555"><time datetime="2017-08-01T15:29:07-07:00">August 1, 2017 at 3:29 pm</time></a> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>thank you for the interesting video on linguistics it is very informative as i am going to be learning about linguisitcs and bsl level4</p> </div> </article> </li> <li id="comment-225554" class="comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1"> <article id="div-comment-225554" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-author vcard"> <b class="fn"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCG0_xO6JiHrSdg7H_vAo3CQ" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">phoebe moore</a></b> <span class="says">says:</span> </div> <div class="comment-metadata"> <a href="https://theengineeringofconsciousexperience.com/an-introduction-to-english-linguistics/#comment-225554"><time datetime="2017-09-01T04:12:34-07:00">September 1, 2017 at 4:12 am</time></a> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>hello Martin.

(the brain bit doesn't seem to have any consequence other than to make linguistics sound 'Sciency'. The rest would be plausible to any 13 year old person in the world? So why study linguistics if we are blind-folded by the partisan approaches and are forced to invest in blind leaps of faith, following one of its branches like a religion or a cult, until we are too old to risk stepping out of the 'flow' . As an English teacher who has to 'dabble' in Applied Linguistics, (i.e. write papers that seem meaningless) just to stay employable, I wonder why? I note that the Polyglots' Conference last year promised, 'no theory' in their conference, such was their disdain for it.</p> </div> </article> </li> <li id="comment-225545" class="comment even thread-even depth-1"> <article id="div-comment-225545" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-author vcard"> <b class="fn"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4poX-6GOziubWJlHFbbKcQ" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">WryT3DD</a></b> <span class="says">says:</span> </div> <div class="comment-metadata"> <a href="https://theengineeringofconsciousexperience.com/an-introduction-to-english-linguistics/#comment-225545"><time datetime="2018-07-23T08:51:27-07:00">July 23, 2018 at 8:51 am</time></a> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFRJhupLYrQ&t=15m14s">15:14</a> -> Je vais te donner quelques conseils*.</p> <p>Anyway that is an awesome series of videos, thank you for summing it all up 🙂</p> </div> </article> </li> <li id="comment-225544" class="comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1"> <article id="div-comment-225544" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-author vcard"> <b class="fn"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOOkKoNLoSypRTm4dERL9Vw" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">Tom Waters</a></b> <span class="says">says:</span> </div> <div class="comment-metadata"> <a href="https://theengineeringofconsciousexperience.com/an-introduction-to-english-linguistics/#comment-225544"><time datetime="2018-08-09T06:06:34-07:00">August 9, 2018 at 6:06 am</time></a> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>But everyone knows the correct plural of "heaf" is "heaves". 🙂</p> </div> </article> </li> <li id="comment-225543" class="comment even thread-even depth-1"> <article id="div-comment-225543" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-author vcard"> <b class="fn"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChZy8eOjfTRNvTGq-_VmH3w" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">Ahlem Ahlem</a></b> <span class="says">says:</span> </div> <div class="comment-metadata"> <a href="https://theengineeringofconsciousexperience.com/an-introduction-to-english-linguistics/#comment-225543"><time datetime="2018-11-08T01:50:55-07:00">November 8, 2018 at 1:50 am</time></a> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>Thank you for your efforts good chance</p> </div> </article> </li> <li id="comment-225542" class="comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1"> <article id="div-comment-225542" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-author vcard"> <b class="fn"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrJjH1PhUHNOy60zVHyc5xg" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">Ikbiuneneistari - Jack</a></b> <span class="says">says:</span> </div> <div class="comment-metadata"> <a href="https://theengineeringofconsciousexperience.com/an-introduction-to-english-linguistics/#comment-225542"><time datetime="2019-03-03T16:20:12-07:00">March 3, 2019 at 4:20 pm</time></a> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>I love these online lectures, Iċ þancie þē</p> </div> </article> </li> <li id="comment-225541" class="comment even thread-even depth-1"> <article id="div-comment-225541" class="comment-body"> <footer class="comment-meta"> <div class="comment-author vcard"> <b class="fn"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEKpiHpW1jQKCHF3KSeAfZw" class="url" rel="ugc external nofollow">Rogeria Catto</a></b> <span class="says">says:</span> </div> <div class="comment-metadata"> <a href="https://theengineeringofconsciousexperience.com/an-introduction-to-english-linguistics/#comment-225541"><time datetime="2020-01-22T09:44:50-07:00">January 22, 2020 at 9:44 am</time></a> </div> </footer> <div class="comment-content"> <p>Sir, you are very calm and well spoken.
