Description

In today's podcast, I'm excited to tackle a big question:
Listener Maria writes that she hears people sounding different to her depending on the language they speak. Could it be that learning another language can change your entire personality?
Listen in to hear me discuss a few of the aspects that contribute to how we perceive personality through a language:
Language Attitudes and Egocentricity: What you think about different languages and accents
Pragmatics: How people use language to navigate interactions
Language Skills: How a learner's situation affects how they express themselves

Language learning means committing to tolerance of other world views, and this open mind is a core value for me. This topic deserves well considered words so here are the best Kerstin managed to put together. (https://www.fluent.show/blacklivesmatter)
