🧑🏫 Les classes s'han acabat / Classes are over.
And with the end of term, comes a reflection on the creative sessions that (I believe) were enjoyed most by my students: “El Guernica de Picasso”, “Grafitis en Bangor” & Languages for All "Frida Kahlo Gallery". ¡Buen trabajo! 🎨

I’ve seen languages open doors, build trust and create moments of genuine human connection that no algorithm could fully understand. Of course, AI has its place, but professional linguists still matter because meaning is human, context is human, and responsibility is human too.

🌟Roedd hi'n bleser rhannu effaith Prosiect Ieithoedd Rhyngwladol, a ariennir gan @LlywodraethCym, gyda Bwrdd Cymunedol @prifysgolbangor.

Languages don’t just help you speak - they help you understand. They sharpen how you think, deepen your empathy, and open doors across every field and culture. English can take you far, but meeting people in their own language is what truly connects you to their hearts and minds.

I recently wrote a blog article about legacies of colonialism in contemporary French sports films. I discussed some of the themes which feature in my upcoming book French Sports Films: Visions of Masculinity. Read it here:

Really interesting discussion in France Culture's 8am news bulletin about why AI wasn't used in translation of new Astérix album 'Astérix en Lusitanie' as well as what AI can and can't translate (13:08- 15:10): radiofrance.fr/franceculture…

Europe’s languages are bridges - linking past & future, neighbours & continents. Each tongue opens doors to others: Spanish to Catalan, Galician & Basque; German to Dutch & Frisian; French to Romanian & beyond. On #EuropeanDayofLanguages, celebrate connection through diversity.
