Why Language is Always Changing with Valerie Fridland

Why Language is Always Changing with Valerie Fridland

Language changes, and that's not a bad thing! This week, Adam is joined by sociolinguist Valerie Fridland to uncover how language is much more malleable than we're led to believe, and how the resistance against new slang often disguises an attempt to limit the influence of marginalized communities.
