Welcome to the Language Matters Podcast
from Language Matters by Diplomatic Language Services
Welcome to our podcast, “Language Matters”, hosted by Molly Sampson, Director of Language Programs. You don’t need a PhD in linguistics to explore interesting, unique features of different languages. In this podcast, “Language Matters”, we make language accessible to everyday people by discussing features which may not exist in other languages. For instance, unless you have studied a Slavic language, you may not be familiar with “verbs of motion”, but we can teach you! Join us each episode as we host experts to discuss how these unique features impact learning a particular language. We will learn together, not only about verbs of motion, but tones, counter words, the oblique form – and all sorts of exciting topics!
