# Some of what I did this week

This week I focused on learning paragraph trees:

- I went through ET’s [Philosopher Does Analysis (Paragraph Tree)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTKv5_bZRoY&list=PLLclPWdf77QVRc0Pgn-ZvbJS2Fj2QyPj9&index=6) YouTube video, which was about making a paragraph tree out of JustinCEO’s forum post about whether focusing on SENS would be an error.

- I went through ET’s [Philosophical Perspective: Complexity in a Regular Paragraph](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6MfjhBypNAE&list=PLLclPWdf77QVRc0Pgn-ZvbJS2Fj2QyPj9&index=6) YouTube video, which was about making grammar trees and a paragraph tree out of a paragraph about the Apple Newsroom saying goodbye to the iPod.

- I did ET’s [Pinker video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uliSJwkcPkc&list=PLLclPWdf77QVRc0Pgn-ZvbJS2Fj2QyPj9&index=8). I was amazed by how good that video is!

# Next week

I might continue practicing paragraph trees. I might do the Szasz tree from Max’s tutoring, some trees from the async tutoring threads, etc. I might also take a look at the the lying analysis from ET’s grammar videos product on Gumroad.
