Listen "Episode 3: How can we solve the UK languages crisis?"
Episode Synopsis
Have the Brits always been 'rubbish at languages' or are we just experiencing a period of linguistic inertia? Since everyone speaks English, is there much point in learning foreign languages? In the third part of their discussion, Cate Hamilton and Thomas Bak look at why languages are not just a nice addition to our school curriculum but central to our culture and society, and to our understanding of the world. It's time for a language revolution!
