As for Japanese: If you write school as , you should write Tokyo as . These are the same sounds, usually described as long o-s, and while the official transcription represents them as , the unofficial convention you used in is fine provided it's used consistently.
"a piros auto" looks more like Hungarian without diacritics (autó) than Greek. The definite articles in Greek are more like o, i, to (ο, η, το), and the rest doesn't match as well.
At around 7:00, another interesting point is that the comparative tends to oblige transitivity or ditransitivity in the affected adjective. (Still loving the series, by the way.)
So adverbs are way more complicated than this. How else would you add to the definition and examples you gave? This playlist is very grammatical more so than syntactic, so hope the next video has some basic trees!
Thank you for your lecture! I don't know if you are still replying to comments. but I just have a question regarding the word "this" in the final exercise. Can it be thought of as a preposition marking the temporal info for "morning"? Or is it always demonstrative?
"...adverbs, they will usually almost always modify verbs...". The semantics and hierarchy of the type of adverbs you used in this last utterance (usually, almost and always) bugs me to no end!
Unfortunately this great course was hit with a lot of ads from youtube. Is this content somewhere else, Udemy? (I do not feel like paying youtube to remove ads)

I don't know about Greek, but it surely is 'a piros autó' in Hungarian.
yup. that's Hungarian instead of Greek.
A piros auto is Hungarian not Greek

That goes without saying, really.

Postpositions and prepositions are subcatagories of adpositions.

Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs.
Very clear and well done. Thanks
Is there any other use of the English "to be" verb other than as a copula in predicatives?
Can sentences end with a preposition in English sentences? For example, from the ground up. Up is a preposition?
Yes. "What would you like your coffee with?"
Isn't "up" an adverb in this case?
