In episode 31 I sit down (virtually) with new friend, Ethan Rode. Ethan is a recent graduate of Queen’s University in Canada where he studied linguistics and politics, with specific interests in language revitalization and Spanish literature. Originally from Mohnton, PA, he grew up immersed in PA Dutch culture and language with his grandparents on his dad’s side of the family and ultimately learned to speak the language starting at around age 11. He currently lives in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and works freelance in proofreading and transcribing.https://www.instagram.com/ethanjrode/
