On today's edition of Radio Uprising, hear Remy, Rachael, and Vivianna discuss language and why it matters. First, we teach each other how to say Hello and Goodbye in Italian, Japanese, German, Spanish, and Greek. We also talk about the relationship between language, media, and communication, including Remy telling us about a new instantaneous Google translator. We also take on questions like: are texting abbreviations like "omg" and "lol" their own language? What happens when we're speaking the same language but aren't really communicating? Can we "speak" to each other without using words? Finally, we take an American dialect quiz and find out what "caterwampus" and "the wolf is giving birth" really mean. All that, plus ROFLCOPTERs, on this episode of Radio Uprising!
