How do words change meaning over time? Is a hotdog considered a 'sandwich?' In this podcast episode, I'll be talking with Tilly Brooks (https://ling.yale.edu/people/tilly-brooks) , a current senior at Yale University studying linguistics. We'll be delving into the fascinating linguistical theories behind semantics- the study of meaning and exploring how different languages draw semantic lines and whether there are overlaps between them.
