Episode 7 - Elaine Gold

In this episode, I am excited to talk with Dr. Elaine Gold, a remarkable Canadian linguist and founder of the Canadian Language Museum. Dr Gold is truly a national treasure of Canada, whose work highlights the beauty and diversity of Canada’s linguistic heritage. I have admired her work for years!

We discuss her journey leading her to linguistics, creating the Canadian Language Museum, why documenting language matters, and how language connects us to culture and identity. If you love accents, history, and stories about how people speak, this episode offers inspiring perspectives you will not want to miss.
