The History of Language

Welcome! I’m Dash Stevens, the creator of the History of Language podcast. It details the history of languages all over the world, and the people that speak them. I’m a historical linguist based out of California, and while working at a museum is fascinating and rewarding work, so is sharing this information about something so integral to our lives. Thank you so much for tuning in, and I hope you enjoy the show! In this brief episode, we take a look at Proto Norse, a language spoken in Scandinavia between the 4th and 8th Centuries CE, and which gave rise to the Old Norse language.
