Check out Self-Evident on PBS Voices: What even is a word? Well… linguists don’t really know! But that’s ok!

In this episode of Crash Course Linguistics, we’re diving into the topic of morphology and what makes up these things we call words.
Want even more linguistics? Check out the Lingthusiasm podcast, hosted by the writers of Crash Course Linguistics:
