Om avsnittet
In what was meant to be a casual chat, cognitive scientist Dr Mark Ellison answers galaxy-brain-level questions about how language works.
- Why aren't we more efficient with language?
- How do we know when something has gone wrong in a conversation?
- Why don't we just talk in a flat monotone all the time?
- Why do fairy tales start a certain way?
- Why is it so tiring to speak another language?
Fortunately, he helps us keep our eyes on the ball for this episode.
