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.

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!
