Welcome to the third episode of the Forrin Podcast. Mike and Pat continue to talk about language for non-native speakers in this recording, this time with a focus on how it’s viewed when foreigners make grammatical errors in the language of their adoptive country. They drift onto the social status of being foreigners in social circles, and how they enjoy being different from others despite the irritation of being corrected.

The question surfaces: are you defined by the nation in which you were born?

Also discussed in the newsworthyness of a Ukrainien association giving free French lessons to immigrants in Le Mans. Finally, PAT IS VEGAN.

Many thanks for listening and see you in two weeks!
