Beef between linguists, call that verb disagreement.

higher on the lowerarchy

Already saw this on Patreon but I watch all of Biblaridions videos like 10 times at least

What font do you use?????

Whenever someone mentions the tendency for 3rd person singular to be unmarked I start laughing at English, just a little.

Tho I love polypersonal agreement.

Anyone else find it kinda funny how most languages that mark verbs don’t mark when it’s 3rd person singular but that’s the only one that English marks

Huge fan of your videos, but I'm not sure you really explained the difference between passive voice and inverse very well. The key thing is that the actor in a passive construction is an adjunct and can be left out of the sentence. In an inverse construction, the actor is an obligatory argument of the verb. Although it is of lower animacy than the patient, it cannot be left out, as with a passive, as valency has not changed

I love those language maps. I find it interesting how geographical the dominant orders are, and how even the most unusual orders have at least a few examples.

Examplish is my favorite language

Polypersonal verb marking scares me just as much as it fascinates me. The agglutinative versions just seem so expressive and efficient whereas the very fusional ones (and therefor highly irregular) make me want to grab a doll and tell an adult where fusional polypersonal verb systems touched me.

There's a mistake in the Finnish at

Ay, btw, Spanish whilst having a much stricter word order it is still pretty non strict and is used to place focus and topic (kinda like in Basque)

This video is truly fantastic! Your examples are great and you explanations are clear and comprehensive! Great work!
