A Journey of Language, Growth, and Autism Perspectives: Stephen’s Evolution

Decoding Festive Language: An Autistic Perspective on Christmas and New Year Idioms


Listen Later

As an individual on the autism spectrum with a deepened understanding of language, join me on a unique journey of decoding a selection of Christmas and New Year idioms. From 'Going to town' with holiday decorations to 'Wrapping Up' the year, each expression carries a special significance. 

Here, I'll share my insights into the figurative meanings behind these idioms, offering a perspective shaped by the nuances of autism. I aim to make such linguistic gems more accessible for those on a similar path. 

Share your experiences and questions, and let's make this post-festive language celebration inclusive and enlightening. The more, the merrier! Tune in for a linguistic adventure beyond the tinsel and lights.
