Manage episode 297782677 series 29983
What we call sometimes Chinese is really a gigantic family of languages. They’re somewhat divided in mutual intelligibility, and somewhat united in their writing system. How are they different, and how are they maintaining themselves? Two Chinese researchers, Wu Mei-Shin and Ye Jingting, join us.
And what’s going on in the Cantonese lingopod world? We’re joined by Israel Lai of Rhapsody in Lingo.
