A show about language, linguistics and people who love both! A Language I Love Is... (ALILI) broadcasts linguistic joy and shares expert insights into the languages of the world. It's a simple formula: one host, one guest, one language, and three key questions: 1) What is your story and connection to this language? 2) What do you love about this language? 3) What is something you want the audience to know about this language? Through informative interviews and casual conversations, ALILI fulfills its mission: to share the linguistic love with all. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Bouônjour! Join me on a journey to Jersey, an island off the coast of France, where for centuries the local language of Jèrriais has kept up its role in the life of the Islanders, despite considerable pressure from linguistic heavyweights in the area (first French, later English). My guest for episode 36 of ALILI is Geraint Jennings, a language teacher, translator and lover of Jèrriais, who was the ideal person to present the history of Jersey and the status of Jèrriais today. We discuss where Jèrriais comes from, how it's faring in the modern world, and what makes it distinct from French on the mainland. Both my guest and this episode's beloved language are sure to leave you entchéthaûdé!Support the language-loving mission by joining the ALILI Patreon here: patreon.com/ALanguageILoveIsStart your own Jèrriais journey here at the page for the L'Office Du Jèrriais: https://www.jerriais.org.je/Clip of Jèrriais by Geraint taken from the L'Office Du Jèrriais SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/jerriaisHost: Dr. Danny BateGuest: Geraint JenningsAudio Mixing and Mastering: Jeremiah McPaddenMusic: Acoustic Guitar by William KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.

Episode 35 of ALILI is a new part of the world and a new language family: West Africa, and Niger-Congo! Our way into this corner of the linguistic world is Dza (also known as Jenjo or just Jen), an endangered language spoken in Nigeria. My guest is Peace Benson, who is actively working to spread awareness of her native language through academic research and infectious enthusiasm. We discuss all sorts of Dza-related topics, from its distinctive vowels to the sociolinguistic situation of Nigeria. Stay tuned to the end for some Swahili content from me.

Episode 34 is a trip to Indonesia, specifically to the small island of Ternate. Don't let the island's size fool you though – it has a rich and complex history, which this episode explores through the Ternate language. This was the choice of my guest, PhD researcher Maria Zielenbach, who introduces Ternate's history, sounds, lexicon and complicated family situation. You may be surprised to hear how Ternate word formation works a little bit like Welsh and Irish...

Now here's a first for the podcast: its first conlang! Na'vi, the language created for the Avatar films, was the choice of Stefan Mir-Mackiewicz, a language enthusiast who plays a role in shaping this constructed language.

Series 3 continues with another prominent public-facing linguist, only this time we're travelling back in time, to Ancient Rome! My guest is Luke Ranieri, a linguist, a language teacher and the YouTuber behind the popular platforms polýMATHY and ScorpioMartianus.Luke took a break from activities as diverse as teaching for The Ancient Language Institute, speaking Latin on Vatican Radio, and flying helicopters, to talk to me about the Latin language – and what was so good about the era of Caesar and Cicero that their language deserved to be called 'classical'.Join the ALILI Patreon here: patreon.com/ALanguageILoveIsCheck out Luke's personal website here: https://lukeranieri.com/Host: Dr. Danny BateGuest: Luke RanieriAudio Mixing and Mastering: Jeremiah McPaddenMusic: Acoustic Guitar by William KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.

We're back! The first episode of an all-new series of the language-loving podcast is here at last.Since one of the co-stars of the hit podcast Lingthusiasm concluded the second series, it seemed only right that the other co-star should kick off the third. Gretchen McCulloch – linguist, podcaster and author of Because Internet – joins me to navigate the linguistic complexities of Canada, specifically in the city of Montreal.This episode is part sociolinguistic survey, part survival guide for how to speak in Quebec, and Gretchen expertly and warmly takes us through Canadian bilingualism and her own experiences and perspectives of it.Join the ALILI Patreon here: patreon.com/ALanguageILoveIs Gretchen's personal website: https://gretchenmcculloch.com/Lingthusiasm's website: https://lingthusiasm.com/Host: Dr. Danny BateGuest: Gretchen McCullochAudio Mixing and Mastering: Jeremiah McPaddenMusic: Acoustic Guitar by William KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.

Time for Episode 27 and a return to the Slavic languages! Unsurprisingly, Croatian is a Slavic language widely spoken in the modern-day country of Croatia, but did you know that it has many speakers in eastern Austria too?

As one of its native speakers and researchers, Kathrina is the ideal person to introduce the past, present and future of this minority language.Katharina's University of Vienna page: https://slawistik.univie.ac.at/personen/person/user/tyrank65/inum/1079/backpid/12319/Listen to Katharina podcasting in Burgenland Croatian here: https://www.hrvatskicentar.at/de/centar-podcastSample of spoken Burgenland Croatian from here:https://pangloss.cnrs.fr/corpus/Croate%20du%20Burgenland?lang=en&mode=proHost: Dr Danny BateGuest: Dr Katharina TyranAudio Mixing and Mastering: Jeremiah McPaddenMusic: Bossa Nova by William_KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.

Episode 26 is a first for the show: a language so old that it's theoretical! This time, ALILI is discussing the whole Germanic language family, from English to Icelandic, since this episode's starring language is the family's common ancestor: Proto-Germanic. This prehistoric point of origin is the choice of my guest, Yoïn van Spijk, expert etymologist and Dutch dialectologist. Thanks to him, I get to chat linguistic reconstruction, language change and some underappreciated Finnish connections.Go check out more from Yoïn!Yoïn's website: https://taalaandewandel.com/Yoïn's Twitter: https://x.com/yvanspijkYoïn's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/yvanspijkHost: Danny BateGuest: Yoïn van SpijkAudio Mixing and Mastering: Jeremiah McPaddenMusic: Bossa Nova by William_KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.

Episode 25 is here and it's a return to the Finno-Ugric languages with expert linguist Daria Zhornik. The particular member of Finno-Ugric is Mansi (specifically Northern Mansi), spoken in two regions of Russia. Daria both documents and researches this language, and so is full of good information about its history, genealogy, current status, future, and its speakers' very particular and periphrastic ways of talking about animals...Check out Daria's website here: https://dariazhornik.github.ioHost: Danny BateGuest: Daria ZhornikMusic: Bossa Nova by William_KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.

This is an episode of ALILI with a twist, as Dr Jackson Crawford, YouTube's charming Old Norse expert, had me back on his channel to chat syntax, old languages and public linguistics.

For episode 22, we're travelling high into the Alps, to join linguist and translator Emma Gledhill in the Graubünden/Grisons canton of Switzerland.
