Ossetian and Sāmapriẏa Basu

Here's Episode 5 of A Language I Love Is... and for this episode, Dr Sāmapriẏa Basu guides us into the Caucasus, the "mountain of tongues", a region rich in languages and language families. Our way in is via the modern language of Ossetian, an Indo-European relative marooned by history from the rest of its family.Sāmapriẏa's wonderful Twitter site: ⁠https://twitter.com/avzaagzonunaada⁠Host: Danny BateGuest: Dr. Sāmapriẏa BasuMusic: Bossa Nova by William_KingArtwork: William Marler Hosted on Acast.
