If you're bilingual or multilingual, you may have noticed that different languages make you stretch in different ways. This week, we revisit a favorite 2018 conversation with cognitive scientist <a href="http://lera.ucsd.edu/">Lera Boroditsky</a>. She studies how the structure of the languages we speak can change the way we see the world. Then, a 2017 conversation with linguist and author <a href="https://americanstudies.columbia.edu/people/john-h-mcwhorter">John McWhorter</a>, who shares how languages evolve, and why we're sometimes resistant to those changes.If you like today's show, be sure to check out our <a href="https://hiddenbrain.org/podcast/decoding-emotions/">recent episode</a> about how the culture we live in can shape the emotions we feel.
