Description

Bilingual for years, and now eager to learn a few more. 

Join me Eric Lampaert, as I make sense of approaching a few more languages, with English & French as a starting point, aiming for fluency in all six of the UN’s primary languages, with some likely detours along the way. 


Bilingue depuis des années, et désormais avide d’en apprendre quelques autres.

Rejoignez-moi, Eric Lampaert, alors que j’essaie de comprendre comment aborder de nouvelles langues, avec l’anglais et le français comme points de départ, en visant la fluidité dans les six langues principales de l’ONU, avec quelques détours probables en cours de route.

6. Get It Over The Net

2025-05-0440:31

I fumble, flirt, and find my way through languages from Italian to Arabic, French to Spanish… and now, olá to Brazil and okuiya kuwa to Angola! 🌍This episode’s a recap of my Italian journey (with French and Spanish twists), before I dive into Spanish and Arabic—maybe for future work with Saharan refugees. We talk handles (I can, je peux, posso), cognates (famille, familia, famiglia), idioms, tongues, and... glossolalia?It’s not a language course—it’s an adventure. And yes, sometimes the ball goes over the net. 🗣️🏓 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode, we dive into the challenges of learning a new language when life demands your attention, and the difficulty in maintaining momentum when the stakes aren't life or death. I share my personal experiences and the ups and downs of language learning, from my early days of being a bullied foreigner in the UK to reflecting on how AI is changing the landscape of translation. We’ll explore the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis and how language shapes our thoughts, and I’ll offer tips for staying consistent in your language learning journey. Plus, I want to hear from you—are you following along as a student or an entertainer? Let me know, and let’s make this journey even more engaging!Email me surfingchaoschannel@gmail.com  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
