MB: The retired professor I studied ancient Greek with for 12 years spoke at least two dozen languages, but whenever I pressed to know exactly how many, he always chuckled and said with a shrug, "There are many languages I do not know." Only years later, did I realize what he was also teaching me is that there's always something new to learn. I feel the same way about the show. We've been at this for 7 years now, and we're nowhere near finished talking about language. There's always something more to explore, and we keep finding more and more and more fellow language lovers who feel exactly the same way. Visit us on the web, tune in via broadcast or podcast, and find us in social media. The conversation's only just begun.
JB: That's a great place to end this interview, Martha! Thank you both for being so generous with your time and for giving our readers a sense of the fun and wonder surrounding A Way With Words !
