I have a lifelong passion for languages, pronunciation, accents - you name it. The purpose of this channel is to share that passion in a fun, entertaining and informative way. I would love for more people to know how truly amazing human languages are and encourage people to learn them and learn more about them. I love to promote languages with fewer speakers, especially those that have been oppressed. I hate to hear that people were told not to speak their language and that it doesn't have value.

I’ve got several things in the pipeline that I’m really excited about: a chat with Rhea from @RheaDawnLanguage, a video on r-sounds around the world and a trip to Bemidji, MN. There, I’ll be investigating the language villages, the Ojibwe language and the realities or otherwise of “Minnesota Nice.”

I'm getting some really instructive comments from Australian viewers on my latest. I'm impressed at how many people have a great ear for accents, and can spot where I get it wrong! Give it a watch if you haven't already.

A couple of people have commented recently that they love my channel (thank you!) but object to my use of AI-generated images. They don’t say why, and frankly I don’t really get it. I’d love to be able to commission artists to create artwork for me, but realistically AI is the only way I can get an image of silent-movie stars collecting trash. What are your thoughts?
