A show about language, linguistics and people who love both!
A Language I Love Is... (ALILI) broadcasts linguistic joy and shares expert insights into the languages of the world. It's a simple formula: one host, one guest, one language, and three key questions:
1) What is your story and connection to this language?
2) What do you love about this language?
3) What is something you want the audience to know about this language?
Through informative interviews and casual conversations, ALILI fulfills its mission: to share the linguistic love with all.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

'Hi, I'm Old Norse specialist Dr. Jackson Crawford' – so begin the YouTube videos with the smooth-talking, stetson-wearing scholar, discussing ancient languages in the scenic Rocky Mountains. To pay Jackson back for having me on his channel three times (most recently here), I gladly hosted him on ALILI. Hence, this forty-second episode is all about Old Norse – what it is, who spoke it, where it came from, and what it became.
