If you're here because you (like me) are a fan of coffee and searched out some coffee-related content, maybe you could head on over to the website of my new book, Babel No More, which comes out in January. It's a book about the science that explains hyperpolyglottism, or the learning and speaking of many languages, as well as the science that explains why hyperpolyglottism shouldn't actually exist. And it's a book about my search for hyperpolyglots, all over the world, in the past, and in the present. Everyone speaks at least one language. And many people (even bilinguals) have undertaken learning additional languages, so they know the time, energy, and brain power that's required to this. This book is about the people for whom this comes so easily, a language barrier is another word for an opportunity to learn more.
