Episode Synopsis

This ep Markus' amigo Nick joins in from sunny San Diego to talk to languages, specifically Spanish, French and Ukrainian. The guys look at different varieties of Spanish and the appeal of each one, then there's an elaboration on comprehensible input compared to grammar-based learning/teaching. There's almost total consensus on how one should have a beginner base before going to a new country to avoid feeling alienated. Finally Nick talks about his aspirations with Ukrainian and Cody and Ian's dabble vs. no dabble war wages on.
