Lingcast - The English language and Linguistics podcast Blake Reed

Welcome back and Happy New Year! Join me on this episode as I discuss what actually goes on in our brains when we decide we want to talk to someone. The Human Communication Cycle. 

Welcome back to lingcast S2:E3!

Join me this week as I discuss 5 of my favourite strange sayings and idioms we use on a daily basis and explain what on earth they mean. 

Join me this week as I discuss the effects of Covid-19 on our language, and how Oxford broke it's one word rule for such an unprecedented year. 

This episode of lincast covers how linguistic knowledge can be applied to real world settings in order to resolve our language-based issues. This special mid-week episode is for a University assessment and so is much faster and more jam packed than the usual lingcast style. Feel free to listen and think yourself about real world problems that could be resolved through the application of linguistic knowledge. 

Welcome back to lingcast for the start of season 2! This week I discuss the importance of questions and just why asking questions could lead to life changing events. 

Do you tell people more about yourself from the way you talk or the way you act? What does your body language say about you? And is it possible to hide your body language to prevent revealing your true emotions?
Join me this week on lingcast as I discuss how an FBI agent could analyse your body language to determine if you are a spy, talk about how we may behave more like animals than we initially thought, and question if we can fake it until we make it.
