Episode notes
English is very flexible with the possibility for checking say a noun and turning into a verb or vice versa. Other languages are more strict in the way you can do that. But of course English also has the advantages that they have many, many new words to come in all the time from all over the world. It's nothing as we've said before, there's no sense in which one language is better or more powerful than another.
