A history of European languages and how they have evolved

Words don't belong to any one country. They walk around freely, mate with other words, travel and end up attaching themselves to places, villages and nations. That’s when things become complicated.

Words decide everything. The language we speak determines how we think, how we vote and in the end who we are, what our history is, our economy and our wars.

RF Monté, the most listened to linguist in France (with +400 000 followers on YouTube), shares here a thorough history of European languages in a fun and accessible way.

Romain Filstroff created the YouTube channel “Linguisticae” under the pseudonym RF Monté with nearly half a million subscribers.
