Nice video -- the history of the word was thorough and very interesting. All elements were fulfilled, but for #4 (express meaning in a story), it could've been a little more creative. Also, the video quality wasn't so great, and the sound was hard to hear at times. Overall, good job!

Good video! I liked how you used the sentence from morality play to be the sentence when you use the word, this gave context and meaning. there was some noise that got in the way but it was still very well done!

hii. the video quality really isn't that great and sometimes it gets a little hard to understand you. Speak a little slower? But you have all the elements and it was very clearly explained. well done

Good job! I liked the video and you covered all the requirements. Maybe you could do some sort of skit? But other than that it was really good and easy to understand :)

Very informative, you covered all the elements required including the mideval one, however you could try to improve the quality of the video. Other than that, it was enjoyable watching your video since it was very clear, well done. Credit.
