Proto-Germanic and Yoïn van Spijk

A Language I Love Is... - A podcast by Danny Bate - Sundays

Categories:

Episode 26 is a first for the show: a language so old that it's theoretical! This time, ALILI is discussing the whole Germanic language family, from English to Icelandic, since this episode's starring language is the family's common ancestor: Proto-Germanic. This prehistoric point of origin is the choice of my guest, Yoïn van Spijk, expert etymologist and Dutch dialectologist. Thanks to him, I get to chat linguistic reconstruction, language change and some underappreciated Finnish connections.Go check out more from Yoïn!Yoïn's website: https://taalaandewandel.com/Yoïn's Twitter: https://x.com/yvanspijkYoïn's Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/yvanspijkHost: Danny BateGuest: Yoïn van SpijkAudio Mixing and Mastering: Jeremiah McPaddenMusic: Bossa Nova by William_KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.
