[@platonicmetal]

“Up once, then down as much as you want.” This really clarifies how it works. Magnificent!

[@heySam514]

Yes, so much better to understand it this way! I’ll never forget it ^.^

[@KikiYushima]

Thank you for this. I'm in a syntax class this semester and we hit this idea in our book and I just went 'wat'. This is so much easier to understand.

[@valentinakurenshchikova8118]

Such a clear and understandable explanation, thanks a ton!

[@himansanasiriwardhena4218]

Now I have a certain idea about C-command structure. I recommend this video for those who are struggling to go through the formal definition of c-command.

[@abdullahasaad7367]

It just confuses us --- English learners --- because there are too many branches, nodes, etc, so it's a bit difficult.

[@himansanasiriwardhena4218]

@@abdullahasaad7367 You think this video content is confusing you? I wish I could teach you because now I have the basic idea.

Thanks for the video. Does C c- commands anything?

It c-commands its sister B and nothing but B.

Thank you! This is very helpful. I need a little more clarification. At 4:11: What exactly are you saying? B c-commands D D != c-command B And then kind of end that part of the video with: "This kind of relation is what we call Asymetric c-command" I don't who is asymmetrically c-command who here. I think it's D who is asymetrically c-commanding B, right?
