Can We Get A Word Into A Language?
Manage episode 367886426 series 3340769
How does a word get into a language? We don't mean English, where it seems to just get absorbed like booze into your bloodstream (see last week's podcast).
What about French, or Scots Gallic or Irish?
On this week's episode the lads are joined by Donncha Ó Cróinín, Chief Terminologist at Foras Na Gaeilge ,to explain the process by which a word gets into Irish. Who decides? How do they decide? More importantly can the lads get a new word considered by the committee and then receive their seal of approval?
Part one, acts as your language warm up as Neil explains to Dave just how Sesame Street revealed some of the nuances of African American English and the boys go swimming in Offaly.
