Martha Barnette, longtime journalist and co-host of the popular radio show and podcast A Way with Words, discusses how one can make a living after learning Latin and ancient Greek, what local dialects or colloquialisms stood out to her when she traveled around the United States, and how we can get our kids as excited about language as she is. Martha's new book is Friends with Words: Adventures in Languageland.
