Imagine you have a sibling who moves out from your parents’ house and has this amazing life abroad - meets foreigners, explores new lands, becomes a global trendsetter while you are stuck with your relatives who also took all the room for themselves. Now imagine that the successful sibling is the English language. Today we are going to talk about that other language that remained with the relatives – the Frisian language (actually it's languageS - there is more than one Frisian language). Frisian didn’t become global like English, but it is a proud little language that survived through the turmoils that were hitting mainland Europe over and over. Join me for this story of battling with the sea, migrations, trade, and… tea?
