In Taiwan We Speak

Your audio guide to the island nation’s mind-blowing linguistic diversity with host Oleksandr Shyn.

Taiwan’s linguistic diversity will leave you speechless. More than 20 official languages, over 40 Indigenous languages and dialects, and even more immigrant languages brought here over the past centuries make this place a true lingo-multiverse.

Guided by guests who speak and study Taiwan’s languages, we unpack their unique features and literary traditions, explore personal histories and identities, and address crucial social issues, such as language revitalisation, education, and rights.
