Discover how a distinct language is captured as the essence of a place and it’s people
from Untold Norfolk Island Travel Podcast · host Jodie Williams
Language and Travel - In this week’s episode I will be sharing with you an introduction to our Norf'k language. We’ll discuss a visit to the island by a linguist in 1957, who had a unique and innovative approach to capturing the distinct language of the Norfolk Island people. Our Norf’k language spoken on the island, is recognised by the linguistic profession as a distinct and unique language.We’ll also explore how language and travel intertwines beautifully and sometimes it is within the customs and etiquette of a place and a people that uncovers a deeper insight into their everyday use of their language.Sponsored by Baunti Tours www.bauntitours.com > When booking with Baunti Tours, mention 'Podcast' to receive a 10% discount on tours. email: [email protected] phone: (International +6723) 23693To call from Australia: (02) 91368062
