Hello Language Lovers! Thank you for joining me for this episode of Speaking Tongues, the podcast in conversation with multilinguals. In this episode, we’re talking to Meriem about her Algerian language and culture, as well as architecture and design. Meriem is an Algerian-born, Doha-raised designer currently based in the US, coalescing cultural experiences into multidisciplinary design exploration and fabrication.
In this episode, we discuss
🇩🇿The distinctions of spoken Arabic spoken in Algeria among other Arabics spoken in North Africa
🇩🇿 Contrasts between Algerian and Gulf spoken Arabic
🇩🇿 How the French colonization of Algeria has affected generations of speakers and educators
🇩🇿 The way Amazigh culture and language and design are such a part of contemporary Algerian life
🇩🇿 What to expect at an Algerian wedding and an Algerian birth
🇩🇿 Rai music that we all know and love!
