The Owlish Folk

The Owlish Folk

by

A podcast that answers questions about the English language. In each episode we talk about – and attempt to answer – a question about a feature or quirk of the English language. If you are interested in the English language, history, linguistics, or if you just want to listen to a lighthearted chat between two friends, this show could be for you.
