"It's a huge pain, but exciting"

Israel Lai is a composer by day and a language learner by night. He discovered his passion for languages when he first taught himself German on his own, ten years ago. Amid lockdown, he created the language-linguistics podcast 絮言．狂想, discussing language topics closer to Cantonese listeners and creating listening materials for Cantonese learners.

He also runs the YouTube channel [@Rhapsody in Lingo], creating multilingual videos about his language learning and life abroad. Israel is currently pursuing a PhD in Composition at the University of Manchester.

In this video, he talks to us about the fun and frustration that comes with switching between languages.
