This week’s podcast episode is all about linguistics: a jaunt into the fertile, fascinating and frequently funny world of languages, how they affect and indeed define the world we live in.
To get a proper view on this, we went for Un Tallat Amb… Alex Rawlings, a British language education ambassador and twice published author (How To Speak Any Language Fluently and From Amourette to Żal: Bizarre and Beautiful Words from around Europe) who was crowned the UK’s most multilingual student in 2012. He won that accolade by being able to speak a remarkable 15 languages: yes, putting those of us struggling to pick up just Spanish alone to shame.
It was a pleasure chatting with Alex and learning some new things about language, and we hope that you enjoy it too.
