Listen "Can We Teach Metalinguistic Knowledge? with Skye Shannon Savage"
Episode Synopsis
Skye Shannon Savage, a Ph.D. candidate in Columbia's Department of Germanic Languages, discusses a project that involved teaching some Yiddish in a German language class, in order to highlight the relationship between the two languages. Skye situates this experiment of linguistic cross-pollination within the broader context of metalinguistic knowledge, which is rarely taught explicitly in the foreign language classroom.
