Episode 1
This is the first episode in a series exploring the process of Bible translation. In this episode, we talk to Gary Simons and Dave Eberhard, who are the lead editors of the Ethnologue, the largest and most trusted language database in the world. We will explore how we define a language and how we can classify languages in a meaningful way. Ultimately this will lead to strategic decisions about starting Bible translation projects.
