[@justthabi]

Hello TheTrevTutor, I am so glad I found this channel you explain these concepts way better than my lecturer, thank you so much.

[@marinakirac2753]

Excellent! (very clear, easy to understand examples ) I'm sharing it with my students.

[@bluespy2415]

[@raoufali6373]

Thanks a lot Trev. It has been helpful in terms of coming to understand the main covered topics

[@miraires]

Awesome, your introductory courses take me to the advanced level :D

[@TheHeaaart]

"Well, he's very good at being pretty : unsaid meaning : This bitch was terrible." I wonder if I can write that in my linguistic exam ahahah

[@BablineLove]

I like your work so much it made me understand much better I wanna ask you if you can make a vedio about foregrounding and deviation ?? I will be gratefull if your answer me I have exam with in 3 days thanks

[@salmanbutt01]

Thank you for the video! I wanted to ask how could one differentiate presupposition from entailment? Is there an easier way to distinguish the two? (I always mix them up)

[@MrNicot1ne]

Well done

[@faizatabib556]

waffling around is an example of a violation of the maxim of relevance, yes?

[@cherrybomo808]

Hello! Is there a way to clearly differentiate between the violation of maxim of manner vs. maxim of quantity? Both of them state that the speaker needs to be brief, and in many examples of violation of the maxim of manner it seems to me that the speaker is also violating the maxim of quantity.

[@Trevtutor]

I, umm, really like potatoes, because umm, they taste like, pretty great. I like potatoes because they taste great. Only the first violates the maxim of manner. Neither violate Quantity if the question is "Do you like potatoes and why?"

[@cherrybomo808]

TheTrevTutor Got it, thank you!

[@Nymerya91]

Very helpful

[@faizatabib556]

then redundancy will be violation of the maxim of manner

[@danaysds]

[@Trevtutor]

Not sure who that is, but no.
