Hair on Your Tongue (Rebroadcast) - 23 October 2023 - A Way with Words - language, linguistics,...
If you speak both German and Spanish, you may find yourself reaching for a German word instead of a Spanish one, and vice versa. This puzzling experience is so common among polyglots that linguists have a name for it. Also, the best writers create luscious, long sentences using the same principles that make for a musician’s melodious phrasing or a tightrope walker’s measured steps. Finally, want to say something is wild and crazy in Norwegian? You can use a slang phrase that translates as “That’s totally Texas!“ Plus happenstance, underwear euphemisms, pooh-pooh, scrappy, fret, gedunk, tartar sauce, antejentacular, and the many ways to pronounce the word experiment.
