This really simplified it for me. Thank you so much

[@advancedstrategiesforprofe3283]

Excellent videos. Using these with teachers enrolled in my graduate course: Linguistics for ESL Teachers.

[@sadafkhan1679]

Thank you so much for this video

[@zakariahiouady7577]

I've watched all your videos. However, this is a phenomenon. We can feel the combination of the background music and your voice.

[@AzeLinguistics]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@EliasErnestoDaluza-xr1ir]

Good Teacher i love it ❤

[@drawsaji]

Thank you so much for this video! It saved my liife!

[@uzmanaz5755]

Thanks a lot sir.

[@wilbersamayoa6384]

why do you attache first the suffix (-ate) and then the preffix (dis-) ? I didn't got it.

[@yellowmuse5724]

Hi. In 5:59, you said the noun "motivation" comes from the verb motivate and suffix -ion, can we also divide the verb motivate into 2 more morphemes like motive (noun) and -ate (suffix); if I add these to the tree, would I be wrong? Thank you.

[@Excrescence]

No it wouldn't be wrong and motivation's root is actually "motive"

[@LaakaidaNabella]

We can separate represent as a prefix 're' and present or not sir ?

[@karenduchaj202]

What software are you using to draw these?

[@ffatema.zzahra]

I love this morphology tree😂😂

[@intheshallow106]

Hey, can you do the tree diagram for the words: icelandic and festival

[@margret4170]

How many morphemes are in “investigations”? And what are they?
I need help🙏🏻

[@isimbulamadmobenibulsun660]

wish I had seen this before.

[@georgianamorozii7854]

How do I know, as a non-native English speaker how and when and why do they combine this way and not in any other? I

[@khoinguyenang520]

why don't we cut disproportionate = disproportion + -ate ? I think it makes sense too

[@marinaperez6299]

why is it proportionate but not dispropotion and then dispropotionate and lastly dispropotionately?

[@dq1484]

how do you know how the affixes was ordered?

[@mahnoorfarooq4301]

Same question

[@karimart7439]

Did you find the answer yet

[@ydaddy6672]

Would you rephrase the question

[@franzi8678]

I think you have to sort it so that you never create a new or totally different meaning in the process.
Like take "untestable" as an example. The root would be test but if you put the prefix un- first you would create "untest" as in you undo a test, which is not what we are trying to say. If we branch together test and the suffix -able we get testable, which is also not what we are trying to say but it's simply the opposite and not a totally different idea. So first we could group testable and then add the prefix un-. Someone please correct me if I am wrong but this is it as far as I understood.

[@franzi8678]

And with the example in the video: You start by simply changing the part of speech form noun to adjective. You're not even creating a completely new meaning just a different form. Then by adding dis- you are staying in the same word class. Adding -ly changes it aggain. Remember that by drawing trees you are showing the hierachy. I think therefore if you have something like this you add the opposite indicating suffix first before changing the part of speech. Keep looking at examples that your teachers give you or on the internet and you will get a feeling for it. Good luck to everyone learning!

[@eskilsolberg6116]

Really really well explained! Enjoyed the video, and also found the calming/erotic voice very good hahah

[@lycafernandezgalino3428]

Sa mga classmate ko Jan, HAHAHA

[@Tounsikhelil]

Thanks for this introductory lesson. But how do we know which affix attaches first. Do we attach re to the verb present to create the word represent and then add ation to end up with the word representation or is it the other way round? That is we add ation to present to create the word presentation and then add re to yield the word representation? Which is the right order and how do we know ?!

[@margret4170]

How many morphemes are in “investigations”? And what are they?
I need help🙏🏻

[@harrymon0]

investigate, -tion, s
(although etymologically, 'investigation' was a word first, and 'investigate' developed as a back-formation from it)
