DESCRIPTION:<a href="http://popcornclubshanghai.com/event/language-game-who
 -wants-to-be-a-lingust-45868/register">Language Game: Who Wants To Be A Li
 ngust </a>\nWhat’s the strangest sound humans use to communicate? Which 
 languages are secretly related? Can you work out what an unfamiliar word m
 eans without knowing the language at all? Let's make language learning fun
  again! Welcome to Who Wants To Be A Linguist? a game inspired by Who Want
 s To Be A Millionaire\, but with far more linguistic chaos. Hosted by Kebe
 d\, a linguist\, polyglot and total language nerd\, you’ll face a series
  of fun language and linguistics questions\, puzzles and mysteries\, with 
 plenty of twists\, surprises and opportunities to change your mind along t
 he way. Sometimes you’ll work together\, sometimes you’ll compete\, an
 d sometimes the answer will seem completely obvious…until Kebed reveals 
 why it isn’t. Along the way\, you’ll learn and discuss fascinating thi
 ngs about how languages evolve\, why they work the way they do\, what diff
 erent languages have in common and what they can tell us about culture\, h
 istory and the human brain. Absolutely no knowledge of linguistics\, or an
 y particular language\, is necessary. This isn’t a test of what you alre
 ady know\; it’s a game of curiosity\, deduction and critical thinking. C
 ome ready to guess\, argue\, laugh\, learn some wonderfully useless (and s
 urprisingly useful) facts\, and discover just how weird language really is
 . 人类用来沟通的最奇怪的声音是什么？哪些语言之间藏
 着不为人知的亲缘关系？你能在不认识一门语言的情况
 下，猜出一个陌生单词的意思吗？让我们把语言学得好
 玩起来！欢迎来到“谁想当语言学家”——一个受《谁
 想成为百万富翁》启发、但混乱得多的语言游戏。由语
 言学家、多语者、彻头彻尾的语言极客Kebed主持，你会面
 对一系列有趣的语言学和语言问题、谜题和未解之谜，
 中间还有不少反转、惊喜和随时改变主意的机会。 有时
 候你们要一起合作，有时候要互相竞争，有时候答案看
 起来显而易见……直到Kebed告诉你为什么不是。在这个过
 程中，你会学到并讨论关于语言演化的有趣知识、为什
 么语言会以它们的方式运作、不同语言有什么共通之处
 ，以及它们能告诉我们关于文化、历史和人类大脑的什
 么信息。完全不需要任何语言学或特定语言知识。这不
 是在考你已知的东西，而是一场关于好奇心、推理和批
 判性思维的游戏。准备好来猜、来辩、来笑、来学一些
 超有用（和意外有用）的冷知识，以及发现语言到底有
 多奇怪吧。
