Speaking of Us

Join us as we explore what language teaches us about who we are and where we come from. Speaking of Us is brought to you by Wikitongues, a global network of grassroots linguists. Of the world’s 7,000 languages, only a handful are taught in schools or supported by mainstream technology, so Wikitongues helps people keep their languages alive. In this podcast, you’ll get to know people from every culture on Earth. You’ll learn about their languages, their history, and how they navigate our rapidly-changing world. If you’d like to be a part of an ever-expanding Us, we invite you to join our conversation.
This week on Speaking of Us, Kristen and Daniel speak with Anna Luisa Daigneault, programs director at the Living Tongues Institute. They discuss Quebecois and Quechua, heritage language reclamation, and the importance of language documentation materials.
