Appreciate you making such a wide range of linguistic videos. Stopped by for the conlangs and stayed for the very useful guides and references. :D Thanks!
I love these little tutorial and explanation videos! I knew about the onset-neucleus-coda stuff more or less, but not about syllable weight and how to use it for stress. And I also didn't know what exactly obstruents and sonorants were, so I learned a lot from this little video :] Keep up the great content! Hydrate and stretch.
I always wondered why the nucleus was grouped with the coda and not the onset, your explanation of heavy & light syllables gives it at least some justification.
also to touch upon how something like as /goʊ/ vs /ɡow/ is a difference in whether you treat the offglide component as part of the nucleus and forms a dipthong, or is part of the code. One of my professors transcribes all of English's falling dipthongs using consonant offglides Vw and Vj I personally prefer rendering them all as vowels, hence something Chinese like /pi̯au̯/ with a bit of wiggle room on the exact articulation

Thank you! I’m glad you’re finding them useful!
Same, honestly. Thanks Colin!

Oh! So that's what "empty rhyme" means for Chinese "zi," "ci," etc.
