Hello Language Lovers! Thank you for joining me for this episode of Speaking Tongues- the podcast in conversation with multilinguals. This week, let me tell you… I’m honored to have this discussion about Kabuverdianu with Jon of Learn Kabuverdianu and Cabo Verdean Linguist Adeleide Monteiro.
In this week’s episode, we are learning how Cabo Verde and Kabuverdianu grew together. We learn the exact city where the language originated and why we use the term “kabuverdianu” when talking about criolu. Jon & Adelaide talk to us about the structure of the language including why it’s important to include the subject and how this structure differs from Portuguese. Adelaide tells us about West African languages that have influenced the structure and how linguists today are using technology to gather information on Kabuverdianu in real time. Adelaide tells us about Portuguese creoles from other countries that can be understood by Cabo Verdeans and Jon tells us about food and music to experience in Cabo Verde- which I myself cannot wait to partake in in person. Stay tuned through the episode to find out which word that yours truly already knew in Kabuverdianu and why I know this word (spoiler alert: there is singing involved!)
Gigantic over land and sea thanks to Jon & Adelaide for this conversation and for sharing the beauty and majesty of Cabo Verde - its language, culture, traditions and people with all of us.
