Ep. 4 Language learning and intercultural communication with Liane Skårnes

<p>In this episode, I talk to Lia, an interculturalist. We discussed linguistic code-switching for bilinguals or multilinguals, dialectical thinking and how emotions are cultural. We talked about whether or not it is possible to learn a language without understanding the culture and what it means to speak in a non-native language from a native frame of mind and the surprising answer to what countries have the higher “expat failure” rate. We talk about paradox and Eastern and Western thinking.&nbsp;</p>
