After a bit of a break we are back, discussing language and our myriad worries about it. From concerns about how language develops (and could leave us behind) to anxieties about whether our dialect is too local, we discuss the pitfalls of one of the pillars of human civilisation. Do you ever worry you're pronouncing a word incorrectly? Ever feel guilty for not being better at other languages? Join us as we discuss all this and more (with only the slightest of nods to current world events!)
