One of my favorite things about writing this blog is getting to listen to the audio clips of our Featured Speakers. I am always looking for additions to this feature, so if you speak a language that I haven’t had a chance to spotlight yet, or you know someone else who does, please get in touch with me! We love hearing other languages!
Today’s pop quiz comes directly from our speakers, but I’ve made it a little trickier – each clip is only about ten seconds of the original audio (wouldn’t want it to be too easy, would you?) See if you can recognize the language, and then check out the links to hear the original and read the interviews with the speakers!
MATCHING: Which language is being spoken in the following clips? Your choices are:
- Azerbaijani
- Chinese (Mandarin)
- Danish
- German
- Hebrew
- Indonesian
- Irish
- Italian
- Japanese
- Spanish
(note not all of the choices will be used!)

ANSWERS:
How did you do? Have you studied any of the languages in those clips? Do you speak a language you’d like to share?
