Sobremesa: on Language

Speaker Spotlight: Montserrat Garibay
Tietoa podcastista
In Spanish, there’s a word for what happens after the meal ends: sobremesa, literally “over the table.” The plates are empty, the conversation keeps flowing, and nobody checks the time. English doesn’t have a single word for it, and we think that’s telling, because the best conversations happen right there.
We’re endlessly fascinated by how people move between languages: the words that won’t translate, the accents that carry a whole hometown, and the ideas that sound simple until you hear what it takes to make them work in a classroom, a district, or a family. We’re especially drawn to guests who are honest about what’s hard, because that’s where the learning is.
Our table is open to the whole English Learner and multilingual learner community: researchers who study how languages are learned, district leaders who turn policy into practice, educators who see multilingualism as an asset every day, and English Learners and multilingual speakers telling their own stories. Every guest brings their own unique journey to the table, and we start there.
