Show Notes

die Linguistin

This episode is for all the parents out there who are not sure whether their partner should pass on her heritage language to their child. Lately, I have been thinking a lot about all the people I know who didn't get the chance to learn one of their parent's languages. And I know there are many different reasons why someone decides against speaking their mother tongue with their child. But I also know that many are struggling to pass on their language because they feel they need more support from their partner. So if you doubt that your partner should pass on her language to your child, then please listen to this and give it a chance. Don’t worry, It’ll be short and sweet.
