Bless you sir. I have a final in 3 hours and i had NO IDEA what c-command was about
WHAT WOULD C DOMINATE?
Trev, you are the best linguistic teacher ever! Thank you million times for posting these videos!
Thanks a million for sharing this super extraordinary e lecturers. I'm incredibly grateful for all your support. Your channel is totally awesome and so useful. For real I I'm definitely learning a lot from you. I owe you a lot as the world owes a lot to Greece 🇬🇷.
Thank you so much again.
Enjoy your day!!!
Thank you for making this video! I just started studying Linguistics and this helped a lot! :-)
wow your explanation is so clear and easy to understand Thanks a million!!!
Thank you so much! I had difficulty in understanding c-commands. Now its easier!
You’re the best man! Aint no channel explains as you do
Thx your syntax lecture helped me a lot in preparing midterm for this semester
OMG your explanation is the best! Thank you a lot!!
I love your channel! Thank you so much for your explanation
Thanks for the videos!!! They are very helpful.
U explain everything that I need!!!! Ur so amazing thank you!!!!! I had an exam and it was good
I was reading about Chomsky's theory of governing and binding and learned about m-command, looked up the definition online, found out about c-command, and ended up hella confused so thank you so much for clarifying that!
Wow, you made something so complicated, so easy!
Thank you so much for excellent explanation! U saved me sir
That was really helpful. Thank you 🖤
great video, you are easy explainer! thanks a lot teacher.
We sometimes call the elements of trees “Items”, but im not sure why.
“Vertices” belong to “Graphs”
“Nodes” belong to “Networks”
but the language is interchangeable, because there is no formal distinction between those two things, to my understanding.
This specific type of tree, is a ‘Tree Spread’
Since the edges are Directed, some mathematicians use the terms: “DAG” (directed acyclic graph), but since this has a single root, you might hear the term “Arborescence”
So, fun terminology…
Tree Spreads are composed of:
- items
- a single root item
We call the ending nodes “Leaves”
Also, Items in a Tree correspond to 1 unique “SubTree”, so it is common to call the items subtrees,, but that property doesn’t extend to some of its ancenstors.
That’s a pretty unique property for Graphs, in my opinion.
A “Transversal” which is different from a “Walk” (both are related), is what we call iterating through the elements of the graph. Something like that,, it’s also a great term.
Cheers
4:00, Leaf nodes are special because they don’t have children nodes
thank you so much , you really helped me so much
excellent teaching sir you may have bright future
Thank you so much for explaining everything
You saved my life Thank you so much
Thank you very much the explantion😍😍😍 is very easy
11:30,
That definition of C-command suggests that X and Y are “sister nodes”, but this definition also suggests that X and Y can have multiple parents…
Asumming they aren’t ‘half-sisters’ or ‘partial-sisters’ (these aren’t formal terms),,, then the c-command condition is met.
So… PolyTrees are fun. Are there Multiple Roots in Constituents/ related-topics!? That’s interesting…
constituent: a set of terminal nodes exhausively dominated by a particular node.
Okay B g GFF Cgyciac
Lzo X if SD u CC g in oh put on oil poop I I m I’m I’m m
F b
JM NBC HHJ on I m I’m ok ok ppl out l
That was really helpful thank you
Thanks for saving my life
Thank you!
bless you..
greatly helpful..
thank you ☺ really helpful 😊
Thank u very much , it’s really helpful u r better than my teacher 😂
Thank your for the video, but I have question. What is TP stand for?
can you do videos about null constituents please
you just saved my life
THANK YOU SO MUCH❤
Thank you ❤️
Thanks sir 👍
thank you so much
hey ! could c c-command b and every nodes below it ?
Thank U so much 🖤
you are awesome
thanks
THANK YOU
you are great
What about government and precedence? Thank you
is c-command always from left to right? cant it go from for example F c-command: E,D?
Thank you very much for this explanation, it helped me a lot ... but you did not include in your video the definition of the symmetric c-command nor the definition of the asymmetric c-command. Can you please explain for me the difference between them? Because I really can not distinguish between them.. thank you in advance
symmetric c-command is when X c-commands Y AND Y c-commands X.
asymmetric c-command is when X c-commands Y OR Y c-commands X BUT NOT BOTH.
THX❤❤
Seriously?! I spent 3 hours looking for "structural relations" expecting to find something else because I already knew these and now I am not sure if it's the same thing!
I think there is E under the B, but that is violated binary principle. The fact is representation of E(or,and) being ambiguous in some kinds of contexts. For example, A or B, A and B is optional or their are complementary/controversial, and the fact is both of the situations are existing. That is the ambiguity of natural language in the situation without supporting of particular context. Could you explain whether is or not?
This video doesn't really have anything to do with natural language. It just looks at a formal tree and gives definitions and relations about it. Think of this video as pure math that we adopt in syntax.
i wish you are my lecturer
How good is Andrew Carnie's book for this?
This series follows that book quite a bit. It's very good for an undergraduate syntax book.
Thnsk you for the vedio. I am really confused about you putting the C here 1:37 ??
Sorry if my English is not clear but I still learing.
i think he means that , 1:37 is about B&C, DEF is used to replace B. So we have DEF(=B) + C for that level (sister level)
I know this video has been uploaded two years ago and I am not sure you will see this at all but I have a question. Does that mean that E would c-command D and F or does E just c-command F? If that is so, does that mean that F c-commands nothing?
You are right that E c-command D&F (becoz DEF are dominated by B, and DEF are sisters of each other), and E c-command D&F, and F c-command D&E. In a simple word, sister all c-command each other ( they aren't dominating each other, but dominated by same node B).
Is there any difference between Tree Structure and Tree Diagram? I had two excercises with trees on exam but one was about structure and one was diagram. I pretty much failed because I got confused by that.
They are used interchangeably, at least with everything I've seen.
TheTrevTutor Thank you very much! If I knew before I would probably pass it this time. That means I will stick with your vids for next retake on Sunday :D Thanks for explaining stuff in logical way as noone can do that in my school
how would X and Y dominate each other?
how do I deal with "story writer" ? can i say "story" is a NP while writer is a N, then calling them NP using N as a head?
What would c dominate
Can you explain what government is please?
Government isn't really used anymore, but if you make it to the binding theory video, government is binding domain + m-command, where m-command is just c-command, but also including specifiers of the XP it's contained within.
So a noun "man" does not c-command "tall" in the NP "tall man", but "man" does m-command "tall". Put m-command together with the definition of "binding domain" and then you have government.
Thank you very much!
What does the F and E c commands? I'm still confused huhu
BSED English karin siguro. Kung gets mo na to ngayon, pa help naman po 🥲
Shouldn't the NP "the broccoli" be a DP instead in "The man ate the broccoli?
Depending on the theory, yes. I introduce DPs a little later.
Isn't The man a DP? Since there's no noun without a determiner
I talk about DPs later in the video series. Not all theories of syntax use DPs (there are arguments against DPs), so the first videos that are pre-X-bar are more generic.
Can E c-comands F?
Tajin Tasmon Yes and it also would c-command D.
Thank you.
Nodes c-command their sisters and nieces. I just saved everyone three minutes.
Savior
I don understand anything when it becomes actual words 😭
lol, the coming command structure. lol ajajjajajjajajjajajajjajajajajajajjajajajjajajja kec you will see a king but i know i am a sinner who was pitied by a more powerful God then yours! lol....................Sci2020
Thank you❤️
