#12 The Beauty of Language with Richard Harvey
Sometimes you can just get carried away in the moment can't you?
I found myself in need of a willing guinea pig, to help me with some new podcast equipment and test it all works. In to the breach, unknowingly, steps the incredible Richard Harvey from Pharian Ltd . It turned out to be the most lovely chat after finding out he got a 1st in English Language and Linguistics at University!
Never one to miss an opportunity and also to really make sure the new 'stuff' works, I asked him what the difference between descriptive and prescriptive language is. All of a sudden our IT guru Richard became very animated with hand gestures and thoughtful commentary, the like of which I never knew existed!
I do feel I lured him in a bit, sorry Richard, but I found his knowledge of the English language totally awesome! It was one of those serendipitous moments and I'm so glad he had the time to chat with me.
I hope you enjoy it everyone. Stay well and thank you so much for listening.
