Your Local Foreigners

16. Who are we when we speak English?


Listen Later

We discuss our immigrant identities through language and we wonder whether we put on a slightly different personality when we speak a particular language? Who do we become when we speak English and how different is it from who we are as native speakers? Has English changed our native tongue, too? We analyse tones, intonations and expressions and ask ourselves if we land as ever - neither here nor there or maybe precisely in that migrant, fluid space: in between.
