“LET’S TALK ABOUT WORDS: A Translinguistic Seminar on Word Anatomy, Etymology and Creativity” with Cristina Schumacher
If you’re an author, teacher, researcher, creative or simply feel that there is a lot more to words than straightforward messages, then this 3-hour workshop is for you! Come explore the language mechanisms behind word formation and learn how to express yourself creatively through building your own, exclusive and unique words that anyone will understand. Learn about the fascinating field of etymology; how the seeds of words travel through time and different languages, creating strings of meaning that reveal how we think and see the world.
Our Term 4 workshop will be held on Saturday 12 November 2022 from 10:00am-1:00pm (NZ time).
This workshop is both in-person and live-streamed via Zoom.
