What's in a Name - Part 2
This is part 2, of the episode 'What's in a Name' folx. I sure hope you have already listened to to the previous episode, if not click here --->
This part of the interview, continues to talk about how hard it was for Dr. Price to get the right resources for her book 'Success with Asian Names' . I am sure you can discern the nuances of the how painstaking it can be to find the 'correct language' fonts on word, and even with printers/publishers (getting the hint??!!).
I sure hope you enjoyed listening in, and are feeling inspired by this episode. Please do check out the work Dr. Fiona Swee-Lin Price is doing by following below links.

Animal Sounds
Why are animal sounds different in different languages? We dive into some phonetics and discuss onomatopoeias.
Episode 77 The erotic power of syllables
What propels you, what drives you, what directs you in your life? Is it inner guidance? Or is it some external power or sense of exterior obligation?
And, on a more light-hearted note, what’s your favourite syllable?
In this episode we’re exploring selves, bodies, phonology and phonetics, and Audre Lorde’s essay, ‘The erotic as power’.
We’re playing with these ideas:
- Human language gives the human body the experience of existing separately from the rest of the natural world.
- Human language allows the human body to have a unique and specific experience of pleasure, joy, grief, loneliness—the whole range of human emotions.
- To inhabit language allows the body the pleasure of being embraced by a self.
The story I mention, ‘Syllables’, is available on grammarfordreamers.wordpress.com.
Take my free course, ‘Writing through the Lens of Language’, to explore the experiential aspects of ‘inhabiting language’ in more detail: bit.ly/lensoflanguage
