The video is very clear and well explained.
They are the same sound patterns as in the exercise 2.2 right? But am I correct to see that the sound pattern 4 in the video is sound pattern 3 in the exercise?
Per Daemy’s feedback, I can see a value in keeping the Sound Pattern “Order” consistent.
While the color-coding is the same, the sequence can be another memorization tool. On page 1/17 of the PDF you mention “The order of the sound patterns doesn’t really matter, but we recommend learning them in the next order. We believe they’ll be easier to remember this way”. The feedback of keeping the order consistent reinforces the learning habit (in my opinion).
For example, regarding the first 4 patterns, I might remember them by repeating:
1) “Meh Ah Eh”
2) “Mah EE”
3) “Meet Ah Eh”
4) “Nee Ah”
I think I wasn’t clear enough so i’ll explain myself better: The sound patterns ARE aligned in the way you’ve mentioned for the exact reason you’ve mentioned/I wrote in the PDF:
It’s easier to remember them this way.
of course. it’s all intentional.
the only time where the numbering doesnt matter is in the exercise. since we’re sorting the verbs according to the way they appear. the more you progress the more you forget about the small details of the exercise because I teach you what order you should learn. I wish I’ve never numbered them in the exercise – but i did. had no idea it’ll be so confusing. hopefully the confusion is going to pass with the lessons.
I have nothing really to add to this lesson. Everything is well explained and very clear. I’m going to memorize the example verbs and continue to the fifth sound pattern.
the system of verbs is starting to become even a bit clearer. The explanation is clear. I liked the way you could see the PDF in the back with the highlighted text you were talking about.
– The video starts very suddenly since I did the previous lesson yesterday.
– I liked the explanation about the verbs given in the 3rd and 4th groups that it is a reflexive action and a passive action. I don’t know if there is such an explanation in the first two groups? If not perhaps you could mention that?
– In the second group I miss what kind of verbs or action it concerns or if it exists in this group (1e strong active action, 3e reflexive action, 4e passive action).
The thing is, for the previous sound patterns we can say for sure in the same way we can say about the others (passive/reflexive). So it’s better not to say. I know it could have been easier it every sound pattern had this, but it’s not that strong with the rest.
Per my feedback on the previous lesson:
– We could end the previous lesson more naturally by explaining that each sound pattern has rules for conjugation (And then use this lesson to review those specifically).
– This lesson begins as abruptly as the previous one ends. Again, I would have liked a more natural introduction.
Otherwise, it was very clear. The color-coding is very effective as a visual learner.

Maybe, since the numbers arn’t important 🙂

I agree!
