In this episode, we talk with Seth Wilson, syntactical linguistics expert and host of the Let's Talk Talk podcast about how language is formed and interpreted. Specific topics covered include:
- conlangs
- the origin of language
- the natural/universal order found in all human languages (UG, or universal grammar)
- language as an evolutionary tool
- "correct usage" and how to communicate most effectively
- framing of language
- recognizable patterns in language
- language in art
- how language affects others, how individuals interpret language, and how you can potentially use this to your benefit.
We had a great time recording this episode! Thanks for listening.
-- Rosalyn and Steph
