I learned more from the first 10 minutes of this video than I did in my 3 hour lecture. Thanks so much
Agreed
Agreed, fantastic video!
Agreeed
Some professors even make it more complicated
you have just saved my grade. My lectures are beyond boring and confusing. Your explanations are simple and clear! I can not thank you enough!!!
OH MY GOD I WAS COMPLETELY DESPERATE ABOUT MY SYNTAX EXAM AND I JUST FOUND THIS VIDEO AND I CAN SAY THAT IT'S A LIFESAVER ALL MY SUPPORT. Love the fact that you use colours and explain everything in so much detail. Whether I pass or not I'll be forever thankful hahaha
Did you actually pass?
I am also watching this on the day before my final exam, it is very helpful because I really didn't understand X' theory previously
It was an excellent video. I wish I watched this before I took the course last semester. I am 68 years old and returned to college after 30 years. The course I took really had me confused. This explanation basically resolve my confusion completely. Can teach an old dog... LOL. By the way I failed the course, but learned it is Ok to fail. It forced me to try to find and answers to why.
Great
Hope you the best
Never Give up
❤️
Ohhhhh
Can u please help me to make my assignment on this topic...
Kindly define this in your own words so that i can easily understand
After watching these , I passed my syntax exam with a perfect exam paper. Thanks Trev, your videos are awesome!!
Congratulations!
Well done!
Can I ask you a question about this assignment I have.
The question says:
The following sentence has an argument and an adjunct:
A New York man shot three men at 12pm.
Use though-preposing test to distinguish between the argument and the adjunct.
please can you explain
why are you still here after your exams dude !!!
Hi Özge! I assume you had this exam in your college years, and I'd like to know what you were studying and what lecture it was the test of. Now I'm studying English Language Teaching and am curious.
This was so helpful! Thank you so much! I never understood why to use the bars, and after three semesters trying to pass this subject I think I'm finally going to!
I don't know how you made this so clear that I understood it so much better than in lectures.I'm not pulling my hair out at 3am for my linguistic final in a couple of days anymore. Thank you so much.

I spent weeks on X-bar theory and honestly I was so desperate about it but now I am so happy that I finally started to get it! Thank you so much Trev!
It's 1am in Paris and I just realised a couple of hours ago that my syntax exam is tomorrow morning. This has helped me tremendously. You really know how to synthesise and simplify information! I can't thank you enough.
So how did your exam went?
Thanks a lot Trev. This video cleared up my doubts about the specific positions of specifiers, adjuncts, and complements.
This is amazing! English is my second language and I struggled a lot with sentence structure. This video made it a lot easier for me to fully understand the X-bar theory. :3
Thank you for explaining it in so detail! I understand almost just need some more practices!
I find this extremely helpful for my syntax revision. Thank you so much for making this video!
Thank you, you helped +45,600 students till now!
I have final exam in exactly 4 hours and I was desperately looking for videos about the x bar theory, luckily I found yours! Thank you so much

I’m a student from Korea majoring English translation. I had hard time w/ syntax but I learned alot through ur video. Thanks alot !

Though it's my first time to come across such interesting topic, it got a good part of your explanation. Thanks

Thank you so much, watching you explain and draw helps a lot compared to someone reading off slides.
I wish I could like it every time I watch it . this is pure gold.. thanks a lot sir

FINALLY someone made this almost understandable. I still hate it, but I love you for making me grasp parts of the concept.

I know everyone tells you this but you're seriously god-sent.

youre a lifesaver, i'm taking a linguistic course rn as one of my subjects, but i dont have the same background info that the other students have >.> !! thank you so much !!!
This is amazing,,I was able to understand the concept easily thanks to you
This might genuinely save me from a pandemic-stricken remote Fall semester while I'm participating in a study abroad program on the other side of the world. I definitely do not have access to resources (and the professor) that students on campus do and I've been confused and overwhelmed by tree structures. Probably overthinking as well! We're given extremely complex sentences to diagram out for our first two assignments and I felt so dejected when I completely missed the mark on the first. Thank you for making this much better to understand!
(And as someone with ADHD the color coding was VERY needed and appreciated thank you!)
Nice and easy to understand. Love it.
thanks very much , such an intelligent instructor, really appreciate your great effort..... post graduate student from Egypt

Thank you sir. Little bit my concept is clear now I'm watching it twice.
Thank you for the immense help. I was wondering how we draw a tree for a VP with two compliments (ditransitive verbs). Thank you in advance!

Appreciate this 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Regarding, The map with a glossy legend of Canada is the adjunct and complement now labelled wrong if it was the original sentence? The map (with a glossy legend) complement (of Canada) adjunct?
Also can you give an example if a sentence with two adjuncts?
thank you so much
Thanks a lot,, kindly analyse for me the following sentence using x-bar theory;
1. The fact that you spoke improved matters.
2. The speech that you made improved matters
Thank you so much for your explanation. I have a question, please. In these examples we can work with IP instead of NP or VP or PP. please could you reply to as soon as possible
