I am very sorry for the delay. A lot of indecision about what I want to be producing going forward. Standalone Youtube Videos coming more often. Will likely move podcast to once every 2 week, but with more content on Twitter and Youtube.
Trying to find ways to stream more but without risk of being shut down (cannot believe this happened on a 50 year old documentary)

IS Livestream - How Languages Change, Evolve, and Relate

Taken directly from youtube livetsream, so better there with the visual aids, but a good conversation nonetheless
Find it on youtube and subscribe if you aren't already
Today, I am joined by a Linguist to Discuss Language Typology. We are going to discuss how languages are related to each other, how we know, and why it's important. This discipline explores the historical changes in languages, examining how they evolve over time and the factors that influence these changes. It also looks at language contact and diffusion, which are processes where languages influence each other through interaction. This can happen through trade, migration, or even conquest, leading to the borrowing of words, sounds, and grammatical structures. By understanding linguistic typology, we can gain insights into the cultural and historical connections between different language-speaking communities.
We will explore how languages can be classified into different types based on their structural features, such as syntax, morphology, and phonology. We will also delve into the concept of language families, which groups languages that have a common ancestral language. This discussion will highlight the importance of linguistic typology in tracing the migration patterns and cultural exchanges of ancient civilizations.
