Can We Combine Our Languages Into One?

Learning languages can be a daunting task, especially when you’re expected to be a master of three or more. But what if we can merge our languages to become one? We first speak to Declan Goh, who was the one who asked this question, with the hopes that a unified language would help him learn more effectively in classes. Then, we explore the idea of a unified language, and also the intricacies involved in language-learning.
