Hi! I highly recommend mastering your sound so it’s louder. I have to turn it all the way up and the ads are so much louder and blast me ear drums. You make good content it’s just too soft! Have a blessed day.
Thank you for letting me know! I recently played around with my camera settings, so that the sound would be more clear and not have constant static noise, but it seems like now the audio volume suffers 😭 I'll see how I can fix it 🙏
@@emisnikki-polygloddess It's not easy! Mastering music has done my head in from time to time. When it comes to music, I use Izotope's mastering production suite. There's lots of stuff they have by Rx and Ozone are by the far the best. Rx helps you clean up recordings to remove unwanted background noise. Then Ozone uses AI to master it so it's as loud as you can get it but not clipping. It makes mastering music really easy. I have no idea what people use for video production though! I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same software.. I wonder if your video production software has anything inbuilt? Anyway all the very best! I am sure there a people who know far more than me about this who can help you!
@@emisnikki-polygloddess You can try adjusting the sound level in your video editing software. A producer once told me people will tolerate poor quality images in a video but not poor quality audio.
I loved hearing your "German accent." I had to go back and listen to it a couple times. Such a contrast between a very real accent (for obvious reasons) and hearing your normal speech which follows American English well enough I would never know you weren't a native speaker.
I find her accent obviously nonnative but I can't place what her native language is because it doesn't follow the expected standard _German Accent_ that she puts on at 0:50 as an example.
If you know Japanese, German and English, then I would LOVE to hear your thoughts on how human brains deal with switching between SOV vs. SVO languages. Japanese is SOV, English is SVO, and German can be both. Do you think that made it easier for you to learn Japanese? I'm bilingual, but I only know SVO languages, so the SOV world order is tremendously difficult for me. But I have heard that it is easier for SOV native speakers to learn SVO languages cause SVO might be more intuitive for the human brain. Linguistically, languages often evolve from SOV to SVO like English from German, but they almost never evolve the other way.
The recipe goes as follows. De aspirate your biolabial plosives. Soften your roticity till it's barely noticeable. Widen the prosody and and Let The Rhythm wander back and forth between a jaunt and a smooth Glide. Abandon intervocalic consonants altogether. Omit the voiceless laryngeal from the onset of words when it makes no lexical difference. Move all vowels slightly further to the back and into a slightly more open position. And last but not least don't forget kids, when moving stems from one part of speech to another umlautize the stems unstressed syllables. Bake for 20 minutes, and you have my accent
This comment is a classic case of "I can read and understand the words you wrote, but I have no idea what you are saying" 😅 I'm glad you are so well-informed about your own accent though!
the defiction seems very perscriptive. there is no right meaning only the meaning the speakers assign to the word. take for expale the words elf and olf both derive from the same word. would it right to say one is wrong when both have enter modern use loaned from other accents. or yall and yous. sorry for the bad spelling. good video just think the defiton of the semantick accent is missifored.
As someone from the middle of the United States whose accent is characterized by being “monotoned” I will stand by my “I don’t have an accent” claim. Semantic accents sounds interesting.
Hello, if the characteristics of the English spoken in the middle of the US is "monotone" then that would still be considered accented. In this case it'd just be the lack of prosody or stress or whatever makes in monotone that marks it. Unfortunately I don't know enough about US accents to know what exactly you refer to, but accentless speech, especially for English, does not exist. Maybe what you meant by that was that you speak a variety very close to General American English?

I love linguistics, but I have no idea where to start. To learn about the English language, you have to learn a new language.
