Australia used to be one of the most linguistically diverse places, with over 200 languages. Today, many of Australia's indigenous languages are considered “highly endangered”. Inspired by his native language, Hebrew, Ghil'ad Zuckermann is a linguistics professor who is on a mission to revive Australia's dead and endangered languages, painstakingly piecing them back together from historical documents. We speak to Ghil'ad and Shania Richards from the Barngarla community, whose language is being brought back from the brink.

In this episode, Grettelyn speaks with Thomas Finke, a Latin teacher for Chesterton Academy of the Twin Cities and the Latin curriculum author for the Chesterton Schools Network.
Rock royalty graced The HighWire stage this week with the world premiere performance of “Dead Language” from their new band, The Defiant. Featuring Pete Parada on drums (The Offspring), Greg Camp on guitar (Smash Mouth), Johnny Rioux on bass (Street Dogs), Joey La Rocca on guitar and keys (The Briggs), and Dicky Barrett as lead singer (The Mighty Mighty BossTones), they tell their stories of the paths that brought this supergroup together, standing in freedom and the spirit of true rock ‘n roll.
NOT KNOWING HOW A DEAD LANGUAGE SOUNDED—episode seventeen of the of The Tale and the Tongue series—follows a conversation with multi-media producer, writer, public speaker, educator, audio remixer, DJ, and owner of the Comatonse Recordings record label Terre Thaemlitz, and Sonia Fernández Pan, the host of this podcast series. The title of this podcast is inspired by a comment that appeared during the meeting with Terre Thaemlitz. She proposed a future in which aspects of the past are unknown as a critical gesture towards the ongoing and growing demand for visibility and preservation of mainstream, but not only, archival systems. Like any other medium, archives and documents produce ideology and are produced by ideology. Following more of Terre Thaemlitz's comments, this podcast conversation is also not excluded from how criticism of the system is part of the system. Because, as he says, analysis and artistic work is often confused with political organisation. The relational dynamics of gender also emerged in this conversation with Terre Thaemlitz. Like Brigitte Vasallo—author, activist and former guest of the Promise No Promises! podcast series, episode 27 The Monogamy of the System—he is very nuanced about the widespread belief that removing gender from language removes its impact on social realities. On the current situation of gender pronouns, Sonia Fernández Pan also shared with Terre Thaemlitz her thoughts on other uses for the pronoun “they.” Sometimes Sonia Fernández Pan perceives in this pronoun a chance to imply the plurality of the self: “they” in relation to the “I” and not so much to the “she” or “he.” We are often asked to speak in key words that make us less complex than we are. Identity as a comfort zone or final destination contradicts the identity discomfort of so many lives. Being different like others is not the same as being different from others.
Some Australian languages have been saved from extinction. We discuss Barngala's revival.

Adam welcomes consummate singer Darius Rucker to the show for a nuanced and entertaining look at his life and career as he's about to release a new album. Darius grew up with a single mom and even though his father was mostly absent from his life, we learn of some audacious requests from him once Darius found success. We discover his initial love for music, how ‘Hootie & the Blowfish' was created with college buddies, and the trajectory of being successful and talented as a black man not necessarily fitting into specific molds of where people expect others should be. He mentions being the butt of SNL jokes, and on the brighter side some epic rockstar parties. Next, Adam welcomes more music greats; Dicky Barrett and Pete Parada who created a new band together, ‘The Defiant'. They came together over their shared experiences of the abrupt ways in which they were both kicked out of their previous bands. When mob mentality turned on them, they found common ground together and have lots to say about the state of today and the last few years. Chris introduces the news with a clip from Vivek Ramaswamy from the first Republican presidential debate which segues into an interview from Adam 15 years prior that was remarkably similar. They also discuss a recent Tucker Carlson interview with Trump that garnered hundreds of millions of views.

King of Asia and Pharoah are two of the titles taken by Alexander, ruler of Macedonia from 336 B.C. to 323 B.C. He died aged 32 having conquered a vast area and founded the city of Alexandria in present day Egypt but his reputation stretched even further as a kind of philosopher king, and in myths and stories, as someone who travelled to paradise, created the first flying machine and explored underwater. Rana Mitter has been to visit a new exhibition at the British Library which illustrates these different images of Alexander and he's joined by New Generation Thinkers Dr Julia Hartley, Professor Islam Issa and by Peter Toth, curator of ancient and medieval manuscripts at the British Library. Plus we hear about the books on the shortlist of this year's Cundill History Prize from the chair of the judges, Professor J.R. McNeill.

John Gallagher discusses the latest research on the languages of the ancient world that weren't Latin and Greek. We associate places like Italy and Cyprus with those two best known ancient languages. But both were linguistically diverse. What informed people's choice of language in these places? How were alphabets developed and used? Plus, an exhibition at the British Museum explores the world opened up when Egyptian hieroglyphics were deciphered 200 years ago, and how the invention of the Cyrillic alphabet, developed in the Balkans over 1,000 years ago, still has political repercussions today. With Dr Katherine McDonald, Assistant Professor in the Department of Classics and Ancient History at the University of Durham, Dr Mirela Ivanova, Lecturer in Medieval History at the University of Sheffield, and a BBC/AHRC New Generation Thinker, Dr Philippa Steele is Senior Research Associate in the Faculty of Classics at the University of Cambridge, and Dr Ilona Regulski, an Egyptologist based at the British Museum.

Joshua Bowen PhD graduated from Johns Hopkins University in 2017 with a Ph.D. in Assyriology and a minor in Hebrew Bible, and specializes in the Sumerian, Akkadian, and Hebrew languages. In this interview, he educates us about the ancient texts that pre-date the Hebrew bible and provided the myths and stories upon which biblical narratives were built. We talk specifically about the Exodus story, and the methods used by scholars to determine what is historically accurate and what is not. For anybody interested in religious history, or even in religious devotion, this conversation can help you separate the myth from the meaning. As well as his Ph.D., Josh holds a B.S. in Religion from Liberty University, a Th.M. in the Old Testament from Capital Bible Seminary, and a M.A. in Near Eastern Studies from the Johns Hopkins University. He has published four books, including the best-selling The Atheist Handbook to the Old Testament, Volume I, Did the Old Testament Endorse Slavery?, Learning to Pray in a Dead Language, and Learn to Read Ancient Sumerian: An Introduction for Complete Beginners (co-authored with his wife, Megan Lewis). He also has two books forthcoming (2022): The Atheist Handbook to the Old Testament, Volume II, and Learn to Read Ancient Sumerian, Volume II.. Check out Joshua's YouTube channel HERE .

Ancient Greece and Rome had an outsized influence on the culture of Europe, and even the world. We may call their languages dead today but they were living languages for much of recent history.
Middle School Latin and Logic teacher Marianne Scrivner talks about how the classical model of education offers an integrated approach to learning that connects subject areas and develops students who think critically about what they are learning and communicating. Marianne expounds on the purpose of language and challenging her students to capture the ideas expressed by an author's use of language. Patrick Carruth, President and Headmaster of The Bear Creek School engages in conversation with members of our Middle School and Upper School faculty to discover more about who they are and to talk about how teaching at a Christian liberal arts institution shapes discussion and learning in the classroom.

"Hello again word lovers!" We have looked at words that have come to English from very far flung roots and some of the languages they have travelled through no longer exist. If we exclude Latin, Greek and Hebrew from our considerations, how many words exist in English that have come from dead languages and another question to consider, how does a language die?

This is why I love Latin... for the depth it gives to language in general. We go over the terms: Hypernatremia, Hyponatremia, Hypothermia, Hyperglycemia, Hypoglycemia, Armistice and Subpoena. Here we understand the importance of prefixes, affixes, suffixes, etc. I swear... If you think Latin is dead... You've just been proven wrong. Thanks and goodbye to antiquated thinking! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/liam-connerly/support

After reading How Dead Languages Work (Oxford University Press 2020), Coulter George hopes you might decide to learn a bit of ancient Greek or Sanskrit, or maybe dabble in a bit of Old Germanic. But even if readers of his book aren't converted into polyglots, they will walk away with an introduction to the (in)famous Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, which is responsible for the inaccurate meme claiming that Inuits understand snow more deeply than other cultures because their language has one hundred (one thousand?) words for it. George criticizes this hypothesis, but through his six chapters, uses examples of ancient languages to argue that a subtler form of that hypothesis is apt: languages aren't fungible, and the properties of different languages are interwoven with their literary traditions. The book takes readers through Greek, Latin, Old English and the Germanic Languages, Sanskrit, Old Irish and the Celtic Languages, and Hebrew, introducing their phonology, morphology, lexicons, grammar, and excerpting passages from texts such as the Illiad, Beowulf, and the Rig Veda, to illustrate how the flavor of a language is always lost a little in translation. Malcolm Keating is Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Yale-NUS College. His research focuses on Indian philosophy of language and epistemology in Sanskrit. He is the author of Language, Meaning, and Use in Indian Philosophy (Bloomsbury Press, 2019) and host of the podcast Sutras (and stuff). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

And we're back! And late as usual! Happy 2019, folks...the Album of the Month series returns, bestowing the honor upon Mo'ynoq and their debut full-length Dreaming in a Dead Language -- our Album of the Month selection for January 2019! Vincent and Hera captain the ship for the start of 2019 to discuss the debut full-length from North Carolina's Mo'ynoq which dropped into our lives January 11 via independent release. Much is made of albums that are "growers" and Vincent laments the lack of respect afforded his picks (don't worry, we love you Vincent!). Hera schools Vincent on the origins of the band's name, and the two discuss what else tickled their collective fancies in January. So jump on in and enjoy the hijinks. Better yet, head on over to Bandcamp and give Mo'ynoq a listen, too! 9C LINKS: Website | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram
The famous fairy-tale collector Jacob Grimm formulated the rules which help modern linguists reconstruct the ancient Indo-European language. In this episode, we look at Grimm's Law and how the Germanic languages evolved from the original ancestral language. TRANSCRIPT: EPISODE 4
