I want the full Canterbury Tales in middle English, audiobook. Cant find it.

Thankyou so much for this

Chaucer seems A LOT easier to read than The Pearl Poet, in my experience. Fun to learn tho!

Who watching after 11 years 😂

2024😊

Seems that this video is broken---I cannot play this video, and it instead cuts to the end immediately when played.

"Pres. Trump's Right Again = Kamalean Rhymes Fake Poetic Meter..."

I told myself to make my characters in any era and just voice them in Modern English but nope, little old me had to say "nay, we shall be AUTHENTIC" and now I'm here huhuhuu...wish me luck, my good men :')

This is so deeply informative

This is difficult for me because English isn’t my first language

Anglo-Saxon = a group of Low German dialects Middle English + Modern English = English

Great Godfrey, Didst thou witness?

1:07 Hold on, what is the intended pronunciation of the 'z sound', because you say it in like 3 different ways? Is it just the alveolar /z/ of modern English, or palatalised /zʲ/, like you pronounce it at 1:08, or the postalveolar /ʒ/, as you pronounce it at 1:15?

Thank you

I found an American accent funny talking about Middle English

Props! Great video :) My class and I thank you!

and a few years on, another person finds and appreciates you succinct explanation. Thanks so much. I was trying to recite The Miller... and was stuck onn a couple of words. You got me sorted. Beautiful human education over oceans and cultures and time. Big ups

It never ceases to amaze me that Americans - Americans ! - think they understand English. I have more to say on the matter but there’s no point. You just wouldn’t have a clue.

I can't make any sense of Heidegger's use of the term "language". It sounds like idealism that asserts thought is primary and being is a product of thought. Without discussing Heidegger historically it is impenetrable. ---- Heidegger's refusal to discuss the relationship of this philosophy to Nazism raised the question. Does his philosophy have nothing to say about the "meaning" of the Holocaust? (Presumably Heidegger, like most German's, had no idea about the Nazi program of mass extermination.) Is his philosophy so unworldly? Maybe it is just idle speculation? As for his direct relationship with the Nazis, at a minimum Heidegger saw no contradiction between his philosophy and Nazism or he didn't take himself seriously. Anyone who did have a problem with the Nazis either fled Germany, were put in concentration camps or kept quiet. At a maximum Heidegger saw in all or some of Nazism the realization of his notion of "authenticity". Heidegger's claim to be protecting his university from something more extreme while he was okay expelling Husserl should speak for itself. For a helpful discussion of the apologetics for Heidegger read: World Socialist Web Site The Case of Martin Heidegger, Philosopher and Nazi Part 2: The Cover-up 4 April 2000

THANK YOU after joining English literature class, I suddenly forgot everything This cleared all my doubts

Helped my study for my Literature Test

fuck the printingpress

Ok I'm lost

2024 here

This was a great help to an aged poetic neophyte! Thank you.

it doesnt work

to bake is her desire. desire is predicate nominative. the line should be inclined towards the linking verb is.

Long A as in 'wand'? In British English that word rhymes with 'pond'. When I took an introductory linguistic class many decades ago, our textbook was authored by an American, the instructor was Australian, and my ears were English. The result was chaos. When the text claimed that the IPA symbols for 'cot' and 'caught' were identical (as they would be in midwestern US English) my English ears immediately went on strike.

very wonderful its working

Duuude! GREAT explanation! Thanks so much!

That was amazing!! Great explanation

I recommend the book "Political ontology of Heidegger" written by Pierre Bourdieu where he excorcises the politics behind Heidegger's philosophy. More succinctly I think it was Raymond Williams who once quipped "Dasein doesn't eat"!!!!

😢

Awesome explanation....!

Thank you so much:)

Thank you! I'm writing poetry in my second language and while this is familiar, I have to learn it from scratch.

Not too long ago, one still heard the perhaps somewhat folksy expression "in the olden days" in American English; in it the word "old" has held on to its Germanic inflection "en" through the centuries - quite a feat. Do others ever still hear this expression in common parlance ?

How is does pronounced inthe medieval tongue? Doth??

Using ð for the hard/aspirated form and þ for the soft/unaspirated form of the same sound was always questionable as it had been imposed upon English by foreigners who distinguished them. Native English speakers have always considered them allophones which is why there is only one rune for both - ᚦ (thorn).

Hey man I just wanna say thnx, sooooo much, I’ve been goin through 2 many tutorials but this 1 thing covered most of the things I needed so, keep it up!!!🙃

Interesting content explain majestically, great video my friend 💖

Thank you

please do more!!

THANK YOU

Your videos are cool and underrated ^^

I was practicing my skills against Ai and I got a question wrong, the answer was A(C)AC. Why did they skip B and why was the C in () ?

What we call a poem if it have a rhyme scheme as aabcc ddee ffgg hhii

The vowels and consonant both sound like the German pronunciation...

I have a dog so that I like the examples which remembers dogs..
