Today we talk with Jesse Gates, Post-Doc at Nankai University studying Linguistics. His work focuses on Trans-Himalayan languages, particularly Horpa languages such as Stau, looking at both static and evolutionary linguistics. In this episode we explore the complexities of linguistics, from phonetics & morphology to anthropological studies of social structures & language use. Jesse Gates underscores how a deep understanding of linguistics can serve as a systematic framework for language acquisition broadly and enhance one’s appreciation for the interconnectedness of language & society.
