38: Language Learning Fascination & Accessibility with Kavein

How can a blind person learn and engage with language? 

Kavein, who has been blind since birth, is here to help us understand more about language learning and usage while being blind. We als touch on accessibility issues with technology, specifically screen readers. Kavein grew up using 3 languages in Malaysia: Tamil, Bahasa Malay and English. He has a fascination with the evolution and history of language. We also dive into a really fun tangent about emojis that I think you'll enjoy. 

The second part of this episode is about Kavein's podcasting obsession and will be on Geopats Podcasting next week.
