#47: Sophia Smith Galer - How to Kill a Language6 Jul51 min

<p>Our conversation spans the world of languages and the world in each language. Sophia Smith Galer is an award-winning journalist and author best known for pioneering vertical-video reporting on platforms like TikTok. Recognised as one of <em>British Vogue</em>&#39;s 25 most influential women in the UK, she has amassed over 200 million views for her reporting on technology, language, and culture. Sophia is also one of just four people<em> ever </em>to have won University Challenge twice!We explore her recent book, How to Kill a Language, which is a hopeful, healing, humorous, insightful book which I highly recommend. Her research resonates so deeply with our own native tongue. I look forward to hearing your thoughts. Grma as éisteacht! Thank you for listening! Beidh tú sásta gur éist tú :) You will be glad you did. Míle buíochas, a chara Sophia - Many thanks, Sophia :) Ba phleisiúr é - It was a pleasure :)</p>
