If you love language and learning you might enjoy this mini series made by a former journalist and language teacher son. I did! Super interesting!
My son and I have made a YouTube mini-series about the hidden links between a number of European languages. It’s been a labour of love. And it’s finally ready for its formal launch. Here’s Episode One. youtu.be/UExL4TFkKZw?si=liAD…

I wouldn’t mind them being so awful if they were at least a bit bright. Sunak is going to regret this appointment so much. And quite quickly.
